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)

If the pressure inside the cylinder increases to 1.3 atm, what is the final
EleoNora [17]

Answer:

1.4 × 10² mL

Explanation:

There is some info missing. I looked at the question online.

<em>The air in a cylinder with a piston has a volume of 215 mL and a pressure of 625 mmHg. If the pressure inside the cylinder increases to 1.3 atm, what is the final volume, in milliliters, of the cylinder?</em>

Step 1: Given data

  • Initial volume (V₁): 215 mL
  • Initial pressure (P₁): 625 mmHg
  • Final volume (V₂): ?
  • Final pressure (P₂): 1.3 atm

Step 2: Convert 625 mmHg to atm

We will use the conversion factor 1 atm = 760 mmHg.

625 mmHg × 1 atm/760 mmHg = 0.822 atm

Step 3: Calculate the final volume of the air

Assuming constant temperature and ideal behavior, we can calculate the final volume of the air using Boyle's law.

P₁ × V₁ = P₂ × V₂

V₂ = P₁ × V₁ / P₂

V₂ = 0.822 atm × 215 mL / 1.3 atm = 1.4 × 10² mL

The forensic technician at a crime scene has just prepared a luminol stock solution by adding 13.0 g of luminol into a total vol
Andrews [41]

Answer:

0.978 M

Explanation:

Given data

  • Mass of luminol (solute): 13.0 g
  • Volume of the solution = volume of water: 75.0 mL = 0.0750 L

We can find the molarity of the stock solution of luminol using the following expression.

M = mass of solute / molar mass of solute × liters of solution

M = 13.0 g / 177.16 g/mol × 0.0750 L

M = 0.978 M

A scholar measures 20 mL of room temperature water (22ºC) and adds 80 mL of 75°C water to it, following the
Leni [432]

Answer:

Data is not valid

Explanation:

When two liquids having different temperatures are mixed, regardless of the volumes, the final mix temperature will ALWAYS be between the initial temperature values.

1st Law Thermo => Law of Conservation of Energy => Energy can not be created nor destroyed, only changed in form. Mixing 22°C with 75°C will NOT result in a mix having a final temperature of 80°C.

∑ΔE = 0 => (mcΔT)₁ + (mcΔT)₂ = 0

[(20g)(1cal/g·°C)(Tₓ - 22°C)] + [(80g)(1cal/g·°C)(Tₓ - 75°C)] = 0

=> 20(Tₓ - 22) + 80(Tₓ - 75) = 0

=> 20Tₓ - 440 + 80Tₓ - 75 = 0

=> 100Tₓ = 440 + 75 = 515

=> Tₓ = (515/100)°C = 51.5°C final mix temperature

Bob is investigating whether the density of water changes with temperature. Which of the following variables should he change in
LekaFEV [45]

Answer:

temperature of the water

Explanation:

Density is defied as mass divided by the volume. To investigate how the density of water change with temperature, Bob have the change the temperature and read the volume and mass of the investigated sample.

Even if there is a different salt content between booted water or tap water and have an influence on the density (compared with pure water), this difference is not so big so the change in density with temperature can be determined. Considering that the experiment do not require extreme accuracy,  any type of water may be used (bottled water of tap water).
