Answer:
(a). 132 × 10^-9 s = 132 nanoseconds.
(b)..176.5 pico-seconds.
Explanation:
(a). At one torr, the first thing to do is to find the speed and that can be done by using the formula below;
Speed = [ (8 × R × T)/ Mm × π]^1/2.
Where Mm = molar mass, T = temperature and R = gas constant.
Speed= [ ( 8 × 8.314 × 300)/ 131.293 × π × 10^-3)^1/2. = 220m/s.
The next thing to do now is to calculate for the degree of collision which can be calculated by using the formula below;
Degree of collision = √2 × π × speed × d^2 × pressure/ K × T.
Note that pressure = 1 torr = 133.32 N/m^2 and d = collision diameter.
Degree of collision = √2 × π × 220 × (4.9 × 10^-10)^2 × 133.32/ 1.38 × 10^-23 × 300.
Degree of collision = 7.55 × 10^6 s^-1.
Thus, 1/ 7.55 × 10^6. = 132 × 10^-9 s = 132 nanoseconds.
(b). At one bar;
1/10^5 × 10^3 × 56.65 = 1.765 × 10^-10 = 176.5 pico-seconds.

Answer:
Hg
Explanation:
We are given information about the unknown element, and using each characteristic, we can narrow down the possible elements until we have just one possibility left.
Conducts electricity: This means that the element has to be a metal, or a semi-metal, because non-metals cannot conduct electricity.
Forming chloride and oxide ions: When it is seen that it forms chloride and oxide ions in the form of XCl₂ and XO, it can be seen that this element has an ionic charge of +2. This narrows it down to the elements in <u>Group 2.</u>
Liquid at room temperature: This is tricky, because we realize that there are no elements in group 2 that are liquid at room temperature. So hence we can look at groups 3 to 12, and see if there are any liquid metals with an ionic charge of +2.
Taking all this information into account, we can see that the only element it can be is mercury (Hg).
Answer:
C. triple point
Explanation:
It is rare for a substance to have a triple point at 1 atm, so you can't measure it if you are limited to 1 atm.
It's easy to measure the melting point and boiling point, because they are the horizontal portions of the curve.
If you are adding heat at a constant rate, you can determine the heats of fusion and vaporization by measuring the times it takes for the substance to completely melt or vaporize.
A measure for the amount of matter in an object would be grams or kilograms.
the measure of the force of gravity acting on an object would be newtons.
the amount of matter in an object is called mass.
the force of gravity acting upon an object would be called weight.
