Answer: B. Temperature

Explanation:

The temperature of the star such as Sun is measured. Using this measurement, its peak wavelength and energy can be determined.

For determination of wavelength, Wien's displacement law is used. This law states that, the sun like body emits all kinds of wavelengths and thus is nearly a black body.

For black body, the peak wavelength emitted is inversely proportional to the temperature of the body. From the wavelength, energy can be calculated.

Temperature is the property which is primarily responsible for determining the type of electromagnetic energy and peak wavelength emitted by star.

A sample of N2 gas in a flask is heated from 27 Celcius to 150 Celcius. If the original gas is @ pressure of 1520 torr, what is
Romashka [77]

Answer:

\large \boxed{\text{B.) 2.8 atm}}

Explanation:

The volume and amount are constant, so we can use Gay-Lussac’s Law:

At constant volume, the pressure exerted by a gas is directly proportional to its temperature.

\dfrac{p_{1}}{T_{1}} = \dfrac{p_{2}}{T_{2}}

Data:

p₁ = 1520 Torr; T₁ =   27 °C

p₂ = ?;               T₂ = 150 °C

Calculations:

(a) Convert the temperatures to kelvins

T₁ = (  27 + 273.15) K = 300.15 K

T₂ = (150 + 273.15) K = 423.15 K

(b) Calculate the new pressure

\begin{array}{rcl}\dfrac{1520}{300.15} & = & \dfrac{p_{2}}{423.15}\\\\5.064 & = & \dfrac{p_{2}}{423.15}\\\\5.064\times423.15&=&p_{2}\\p_{2} & = & \text{2143 Torr}\end{array}\\

(c) Convert the pressure to atmospheres

p = \text{2143 Torr} \times \dfrac{\text{1 atm}}{\text{760 Torr}} = \textbf{2.8 atm}\\\\\text{The new pressure reading will be $\large \boxed{\textbf{2.8 atm}}$}

LuckyWell [14K]

Answer:

B

Explanation:

Option B is the correct answer. When you add 7 in front of the O2 in the left side, and then you add 4 and 6 in front of NO2 and H2O respectively, the number of oxygen atoms is the same in both sides.
