What is the volume of 0.25 mol of ammonia gas at 1.00 atm and 273 K? (R= 0.0821 Latm/molK)What is the volume of 0.25 mol of ammo
ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer:

5.6L

Explanation:

Given parameters:

number of moles  = 0.25mol

pressure on gas  = 1atm

temperature  = 273K

Gas constant R = 0.0821Latm/molK

Unknown:

Volume of gas  = ?

Solution:

Using the ideal gas equation, we can solve this problem. The equation is a combination of the three gas laws: Boyle's law, Charles's law and Avogadro's law.

It is mathematically expressed as;

             PV = nRT

where P is the pressure

           V is the volume

          R is the gas constant

          T is the temperature

          n is the number of moles

All the parameters are in the appropriate units and we simply solve for the volume of the gas;

                1 x V = 0.25 x 0.0821 x 273

                      V  = 5.6L

Question in link below.
bezimeni [28]

The correct answer is - They supply the energy needed for living processes.

Both the carbon and the nitrogen, are gases that are crucial for the survival of the organisms on the planet. They are mostly used by the producers in the ecosystems, as they need them to manage to perform their cycles, get nutrition, and of course energy. The producers are the basis of the ecosystems, so if they do not have a healthy supply of carbon and nitrogen, the ecosystems on the whole planet will collapse. The carbon and the nitrogen later go from one organism to another as the energy is transferred, and usually end up back into the atmosphere again.

Why are disifectants alone not enough to kill an entire population of bacteria
Brums [2.3K]
Because bacteria mutates that's why we have a new flu vaccine every year , because strains of DNA in the bacteria change all the time.

What was marshall nirenberg and heinrich matthaeis contribution to our current understanding of the genetic code?
Julli [10]
Marshall Nirenberg and Heinrich Mattaeis contributed to out current understanding of the genetic code by discovering genetic codons. Their experiment deciphered the first of the 64 triplet codons in the genetic code by using nucleic acid homopolymer to translate specific amino acids. Their experiment cracked the first codon of the genetic code and showed that RNA controlled the production of certain types of proteins.<span />
