Answer:

A. Superposition

Explanation:

A law of geochronology, stating that in any undisturbed sequence of rocks deposited in layers, the youngest layer is on top and the oldest on bottom, each layer being younger than the one beneath it and older than the one above it.

Which is the best reason for choosing the beaker for heating the solution? The beaker is the only container that can withstand h
lyudmila [28]

Answer: The beaker will not tip over when placed on the hot plate


Justification:


Since beakers have flat surface bottoms (usually and this is the condition to use them for this particular application) they can be placed safely on the hot plate without the risk that the they tip over.


Beakers are wide mouth cylindrical vessels used in laboratories to store, mix and heat liquids. Most are made of glass, in which case the glass is resistant to the flame and does not break when exposed to high temperatures or when is heated by direct contact on a hot plate.


So, their safe shape (flat bottom) that makes them stable, along with their ability to withstand high temperatures, make them suitable to heat solutions in laboratories.

What is the pressure in a 24.0-LL cylinder filled with 32.7 gg of oxygen gas at a temperature of 319 KK? Express your answer to
Blizzard [7]

Answer:

The pressure in that cylinder = 1.12atm

Explanation:

We use general gas law to calculate it. General gas law is gotten by combining Boyle's law, Charles' law and Avogadro's law. Thus

P = nRT/V

Where n = number of moles

R = the gas constant

T is the Temperature, V is the volume and P is the pressure.

Given: T = 319K, V = 24L, R = 0.0821 L.atm/K.mol

The first step is to find n using

n = mass of O2/molar mass of O2

=32.7/32

=1.0219

Now, using P =nRT/V

P = 1.0219 ×0.0821×319÷24

Therefore P = 1.12atm

Marianna [84]

Answer: 0.082 atm L k^-1 mole^-1

Explanation:

Given that:

Volume of gas (V) = 62.0 L

Temperature of gas (T) = 100°C

Convert 100°C to Kelvin by adding 273

(100°C + 273 = 373K)

Pressure of gas (P) = 250 kPa

[Convert pressure in kilopascal to atmospheres

101.325 kPa = 1 atm

250 kPa = 250/101.325 = 2.467 atm]

Number of moles (n) = 5.00 moles

Gas constant (R) = ?

To get the gas constant, apply the formula for ideal gas equation

pV = nRT

2.467 atm x 62.0L = 5.00 moles x R x 373K

152.954 atm•L = 1865 K•mole x R

To get the value of R, divide both sides by 1865 K•mole

152.954 atm•L / 1865 K•mole = 1865 K•mole•R / 1865 K•mole

0.082 atm•L•K^-1•mole^-1 = R

Thus, the value of gas constant is 0.082 atm L k^-1 mole^-1

If the symbol X represents a central atom, Y represents outer atoms, and Z represents lone pairs on the central atom, the struct
Inessa05 [86]

Answer:

The correct option is: bent 109°

Explanation:

Covalent molecules are the molecules in which the atoms are linked by covalent bonds. The electrons involved in the formation of a covalent bond are known as shared pair or <u>bond pair of electrons</u>.

The three-dimensional arrangement of the atoms of a molecule in space is known its molecular structure or geometry.

<u>Given molecule</u>: XY₂, having two lone pairs around the central atom X.

Since the molecule XY₂ has <u>two lone pairs</u> and <u>two bond pairs</u> of electrons. Therefore according to the VSEPR theory, the given molecule has a <u>bent molecular geometry with 109° bond angle.</u>
