<span>Determine the root-mean-square sped of CO2 molecules that have an average Kinetic Energy of 4.21x10^-21 J per molecule. Write your answer to 3 sig figs.
</span><span>
E = 1/2 m v^2 

If you substitute into this formula, you will get out the root-mean-square speed. 

If energy is Joules, the mass should be in kg, and the speed will be in m/s. 

1 mol of CO2 is 44.0 g, or 4.40 x 10^1 g or 4.40 x 10^-2 kg. 

If you divide this by Avagadro's constant, you will get the average mass of a CO2 molecule. 

4.40 x 10^-2 kg / 6.02 x 10^23 = 7.31 x 10^-26 kg 

So, if E = 1/2 mv^2 

</span>v^2 = 2E/m = 2 (4.21x10^-21 J)/7.31 x 10^-26 kg = 115184.68 
Take the square root of that, and you get the answer 339 m/s.

How do volcanos such as ojos del salado form?
Ksenya-84 [330]

Answer:

Deep inside Earth, between the molten iron core and the thin crust at the surface, there is a solid body of rock called the mantle. When rock from the mantle melts, moves to the surface through the crust, and releases pent-up gases, volcanoes erupt.

Explanation: hot molten rock, ash, and gases escape from the volcano

When you have finished adding the necessary amount of NaOH to your beaker, what color will the litmus paper turn?
Svetllana [295]

<u>Answer:</u> The red litmus paper turns blue on dipping in NaOH solution.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Litmus paper is the indicator that detects the nature of the solution, whether it is acidic or basic.

There are 2 types of litmus paper:

  • <u>Red litmus paper:</u> This paper will turn blue if it is dipped in basic solution and will remain as such if it is dipped in acidic solution.
  • <u>Blue litmus paper:</u> This paper will turn red if it is dipped in acidic solution and will remain as such if it is dipped in basic solution.

NaOH is a strong base, so when a red litmus paper is dipped in the beaker having necessary amount of NaOH, the red litmus paper turns into blue.
