Ice Station Bravo near the North Pole launched a helium-filled balloon to check atmospheric conditions. At sea level (1.0 atm) w

here the balloon was launched, it had a volume of 0.93m^3 . It rose to an altitude of 18000m where the atmospheric pressure dropped to 0.072atm.
What is the volume of the balloon at that altitude assuming that the temperature was the same at sea level?

Answer:

12.9 m³ is the new volume

Explanation:

As the temperature keeps on constant, and the moles of the gas remains constant too, if we decrease the pressure, the volume will increase.  If the volume is decreased, pressure will be higher.

The relation is this: P₁ . V₁  = P₂  . V₂

1 atm . 0.93m³ = 0.072 atm . V₂

0.93m³ .atm / 0.072 atm = V₂

V₂ = 12.9 m³

In conclusion and as we said, pressure has highly decreased so volume has highly increased.

How much energy is released by the decay of 3 grams of 230Th in the following reaction 230 Th - 226Ra + "He (230 Th = 229.9837 g
Serhud [2]

<u>Answer:</u> The energy released for the decay of 3 grams of 230-Thorium is 2.728\times 10^{-15}J

<u>Explanation:</u>

First we have to calculate the mass defect (\Delta m).

The equation for the alpha decay of thorium nucleus follows:

_{90}^{230}\textrm{Th}\rightarrow _{88}^{226}\textrm{Ra}+_2^{4}\textrm{He}

To calculate the mass defect, we use the equation:

Mass defect = Sum of mass of product - Sum of mass of reactant

\Delta m=(m_{Ra}+m_{He})-(m_{Th})

\Delta m=(225.9771+4.008)-(229.9837)=1.4\times 10^{-3}amu=2.324\times 10^{-30}kg

(Conversion factor: 1amu=1.66\times 10^{-27}kg )

To calculate the energy released, we use Einstein equation, which is:

E=\Delta mc^2

E=(2.324\times 10^{-30}kg)\times (3\times 10^8m/s)^2

E=2.0916\times 10^{-13}J

The energy released for 230 grams of decay of thorium is 2.0916\times 10^{-13}J

We need to calculate the energy released for the decay of 3 grams of thorium. By applying unitary method, we get:

As, 230 grams of Th release energy of = 2.0916\times 10^{-13}J

Then, 3 grams of Th will release energy of = \frac{2.0916\times 10^{-13}}{230}\times 3=2.728\times 10^{-15}J

Hence, the energy released for the decay of 3 grams of 230-Thorium is 2.728\times 10^{-15}J

Indicate which reactions are redox reactions. check all that apply. check all that apply. 2na(s)+cl2(g)→2nacl(s) cd(s)+pb2+(aq)→
3241004551 [841]

Redox reactions are those in which the oxidation numbers of the elements involved are changed.

Equation 1:

2Na(s) + Cl2(g) --> 2NaCl

 

The oxidation numbers of Na and Cl in the reactant side are both zero because they are in elemental form. In the product side, however, the oxidation numbers are +1 and -1, respectively. Hence, this is an example of redox reaction.

Equation 2:

Cd(s) + Pb+2(aq) --> Cd2+(aq) + Pb(s)

The oxidation numbers of Cd and Pb+2 in the reactant side are 0 and +2, respectively. They are, however, +2 and 0 in the product side. Hence, this is also a redox reaction.

Equation 3:

Pb(NO3)2(liq) + 2LiCl(aq) --> PbCl2(s) + 2LiNO3(aq)

The oxidation numbers of the involved ions (both cations and anions) are not changed. Hence, this is NOT an oxidation reaction.

Equation 4:

C(s) + O2(g) --> CO2(g)

 Just as the equation 1 and 2, the oxidation numbers of the reactants are not similar to those in the product. Hence, this is an example of oxidation reaction.

How many moles are in 35.6 g of H2O
klasskru [66]

Answer:

Given

mass of H2O (m) =35.6g

molarmass (mr) = H2O ), 1x2+16=18g/mol

moles of H2O (n) =?

sln

n=m/mr

n=35.6g/18g/mol

n=1.978moles

the moles of H2O are 1.978moles
