According to Graham's Law of Diffusion,"the rates of diffusion of two gases are inversely proportional to the square root of their Molar masses or Densities at the same pressure and temperature".

                                     r₁ / r₂  =  \sqrt{M2 / M1}
Where,
            r₁  =  Rate of Helium

            r₂  =  Rate of Oxygen

            M₂  =  Molar mass of Oxygen  =  32 g/mol

            M₁  =  Molar mass of Fluorine  =  4 g/mol

Putting values,

                                           r₁ / r₂  =  \sqrt{32 / 4}

                                           r₁ / r₂  =  \sqrt{8}

                                           r₁ / r₂  =  2.82
Result:
            Helium gas effuses 2.82 times faster than Oxygen gas.

Discuss some of the biotic (living) and abiotic (nonliving) factors in the chimps’ ecosystem that affect their behavior.
Genrish500 [490]

Answer:

Diet:  fruit, leaves, bark, stems, seeds, eggs, insects, birds, small to medium sized primates - red tail monkeys, yellow baboons, bushbuck and warthogs.

Environmental Relationship - The chimpanzee keeps the plants it eats short, moves dirt around which helps things living in the dirt, keeps bird and small monkey populations that it eats from overpopulating.

Different biotic and abiotic factors affect why the chimps live where they do. (Spatial Relationships)

When barium hydroxide is mixed with ammonium chloride, a fall in temperature is observed why? plz explain in detail
Oksanka [162]

Answer:

Ammonium chloride has ammonium (NH4 +) part which is slightly acidic and Barium Hydroxide is a strong base.

You can see that an acid-base reaction will occur.

In this case :

Its highly endothermic reaction

Forms aqueous ammonia (mind that ammonia is highly water soluble gas so no effervesence) and Barium Chloride which is water soluble.

Ba(OH)2 +NH4Cl ——->BaCl2 + NH3 +H2O (unbalanced)

What is the difference between concentrated acid and a weak one?
makkiz [27]

Answer:

Difference between concentrated acid and weak acid :---

  • According to Arrhenius's theory the substances which easily get dissociated into H+ ions when dissolved in water are acids.

  • And the substance which readily gives H+ ions on dissociation (when dissolved in water) are Strong Acid. Examples are HCl , H2SO4 etc.

While,

  • Concentration of acid is just the value of pH. pH is the measurement of concentration of acid or base. The lower the pH, higher the concentration.

  • So strong acid is strong because it gives H+ ions readily in water and Concentration is the value of pH.

Classify each of the observed changes according to whether or not they are likely to represent evidence that a chemical reaction
Mama L [17]

Answer:

a solution color becoming less intense  due to dilution- is not an evidence of a chemical reaction

bubbles (gas formation) - evidence of a chemical reaction

explosion or fire - evidence of a chemical reaction

changes in color- evidence of a chemical reaction

precipitation- evidence of a chemical reaction

changes in temperature - evidence of a chemical reaction

a solid liquifying - is not an evidence of a chemical reaction

solution colors mixing - is not an evidence of a chemical reaction

Explanation:

A chemical change is not easily reversible and yields new substances. It is often accompanied by a loss or gain of heat.

In the answer section, i have shown some evidences that lead us to conclude that a chemical reaction has taken place. The occurrence of a chemical change often goes with the formation of new substances as earlier stated and any of these signs may accompany the process.

For instance, when a metal is dropped in dilute acid solution, bubble of hydrogen gas indicates that a chemical reaction has taken place.
