Find the volume of a gas at STP, if its volume is 80.0 mL at 109 kPa and -12.5°C.

exis [7]

Answer:

= 913.84 mL

Explanation:

Using the combined gas laws

P1V1/T1 = P2V2/T2

At standard temperature and pressure. the pressure is 10 kPa, while the temperature is 273 K.

V1 = 80.0 mL

P1 = 109 kPa

T1 = -12.5 + 273 = 260.5 K

P2 = 10 kPa

V2 = ?

T2 = 273 K

Therefore;

V2 = P1V1T2/P2T1

= (109 kPa × 80 mL × 273 K)/(10 kPa× 260.5 K)

= 913.84 mL

Calculate the solubility of hydrogen in water at an atmospheric pressure of 0.380 atm (a typical value at high altitude).

Pani-rosa [81]

The question is incomplete, here is the complete question:

Calculate the solubility of hydrogen in water at an atmospheric pressure of 0.380 atm (a typical value at high altitude).

Atmospheric Gas Mole Fraction kH mol/(L*atm)

$N_2$ $7.81\times 10^{-1}$ $6.70\times 10^{-4}$

$O_2$ $2.10\times 10^{-1}$ $1.30\times 10^{-3}$

Ar $9.34\times 10^{-3}$ $1.40\times 10^{-3}$

$CO_2$ $3.33\times 10^{-4}$ $3.50\times 10^{-2}$

$CH_4$ $2.00\times 10^{-6}$ $1.40\times 10^{-3}$

$H_2$ $5.00\times 10^{-7}$ $7.80\times 10^{-4}$

Answer: The solubility of hydrogen gas in water at given atmospheric pressure is $1.48\times 10^{-10}M$

Explanation:

To calculate the partial pressure of hydrogen gas, we use the equation given by Raoult's law, which is:

$p_{\text{hydrogen gas}}=p_T\times \chi_{\text{hydrogen gas}}$

where,

$p_A$ = partial pressure of hydrogen gas = ?

$p_T$ = total pressure = 0.380 atm

$\chi_A$ = mole fraction of hydrogen gas = $5.00\times 10^{-7}$

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$p_{\text{hydrogen gas}}=0.380\times 5.00\times 10^{-7}\\\\p_{\text{hydrogen gas}}=1.9\times 10^{-7}atm$

To calculate the molar solubility, we use the equation given by Henry's law, which is:

$C_{H_2}=K_H\times p_{H_2}$

where,

$K_H$ = Henry's constant = $7.80\times 10^{-4}mol/L.atm$

$p_{H_2}$ = partial pressure of hydrogen gas = $1.9\times 10^{-7}atm$

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$C_{H_2}=7.80\times 10^{-4}mol/L.atm\times 1.9\times 10^{-7}atm\\\\C_{CO_2}=1.48\times 10^{-10}M$

Hence, the solubility of hydrogen gas in water at given atmospheric pressure is $1.48\times 10^{-10}M$

Depression what are the effects to the brain

oksian1 [2.3K]

Depression can affect a person psychologically, it also has the potential to affect physical structures in the brain. These physical changes range from inflammation and oxygen restriction, to actual shrinking. Depression can impact the central control center of nervous system. Depression can cause amygdala to enlarge. This is a part of the brain associated with emotional responses. When amygdala becomes larger and more active, it causes sleep disturbances, changes in activity levels, and changes in other hormones.

A study of the decomposition reaction 3RS2  3R + 6S yields the following initial rate dat

shutvik [7]

Missing question: What is the rate constant for the reaction?
[RS2](mol L-1) Rate (mol/(L·s))
0.150 0.0394
0.250 0.109
0.350 0.214
0.500 0.438
Chemical reaction: 3RS₂ → 3R + 6S.
Compare second and fourth experiment, when concentration is doubled, rate of concentration is increaced by four. So rate is:
rate = k·[RS₂]².
k = 0,438 ÷ (0,500)².
k = 1,75 L/mol·s.

Diamond has a density of 3.513 g/cm³. The mass of diamonds is often measured in "carats," where 1 carat equals 0.200

Gennadij [26K]

The volume of a 1.86-carat diamond in cubic centimeters is 0.106 cm³

Given,

The density of a diamond is 3.513 g/cm³.

We have to find out the volume of a 1.86-carat diamond in cubic centimeters.

Convert the units of the diamond from carat to grams, we have:

(1.86 carats) x (0.200 g / 1 carat) = 0.372 g

The volume of the diamond is obtained by dividing the mass by the density, therefore using the formula, we get

v = m / d

v = 0.372 g / (3.51 g/cm³) = 0.1059 cm³

or, v = 0.106 cm³ (approx)

Therefore, the volume of a 1.86-carat diamond is approximately 0.106 cm³.
