What pressure, in atmospheres, is exerted on the body of a diver if he is 38 ft below the surface of the water when atmospheric

pressure at the surface is 750 mmHg ? Assume that the density of the water is 1.00g/cm3=1.00×103kg/m3. The gravitational constant is 9.81m/s2, and 1Pa=1kg/m−s2.
Express your answer using two significant figures.

The pressure of diver = atmospheric pressure + water pressure

atmospheric pressure = 750 mmHg (as given) = 750 / 760 atm = 0.987 atm

Water pressure is

P = hρg

where

h = height of water = 38 ft

1 ft = 0.3048

38 ft = 11.58 m

ρ = density  = 1000 Kg / m³

g = gravitational constant  = 9.81 m/s2

P = 11.58 X 1000 X 9.81 = 113599.8 Kg / m s^2 Or N /m^2

1 N / m^2 = 1 pa = 9.869 X 10^-6 atm

P = 113599.8 Pa = 1.12 atm

Total pressure = 1.12 + 0.987 atm = 2.107 atm = 2.1 atm (two significant figures)

Answer:

+1

Explanation:

For the equation to be balanced, the total mass number and the total atomic number on both side of the equation but be equal.

This is illustrated:

For the mass number:

Left side: 22

Right side: 22 + 0 = 22

For the atomic number:

Left side: 11

Right side: 10 + x

11 = 10 + x

Collect like terms

x = 11 - 10

x = 1

See attachment for further explanation.

A pentavalent cation atom has 20 and 15 neutrons as protons. Find the electron quantity and mass number respectively. (40 pts.)
balandron [24]

Answer:

C.

Explanation:

Since the mass number is the number of protons and neutrons added together, the answer is 35. Since the questions are respectively electron quantity and mass number, the only answer choice with 35 as the second choice is C, so that is the correct answer.

What is the molarity of a solution that contains 20.45 g of sodium chloride (NaCl) dissolved in 700.0 mL of solution?
Nostrana [21]
Molarity is the number of moles of solute in 1 L of solution.
the mass of NaCl added - 20.45 g
number of moles of NaCl - 20.45 g / 58.5 g/mol = 0.350 mol
volume of the solution is 700.0 mL 
since molarity is the number of moles in 1000 mL 
and if 700.0 mL contains - 0.350 mol 
therefore 1000 mL contains - 0.350 mol / 700.0 x 1000 = 0.500 mol 
hence molarity of solution is 0.500 M

What conditions favor the formation of ionic compounds from elements?
sweet [91]
A  metal  and  non  metal  favor  the  formation  of  ionic  compounds  from  element.  ionic  compounds  are  formed  when  between  metal  and  non  metal  because  metal  has  ability  to  loss  electrons   and  net  positive  charge  ion  to  form  cation while  non  metal  has  ability  to  gain   electrons  .form  anion  and  net  negative   charge  ion.
