The volume in liters occupied by 22.6 g of I₂ gas at STP is 1.99 L (answer A)
<u><em>calculation</em></u>
Step: find the moles of I₂
moles= mass÷ molar mass
from periodic table the molar mass of I₂ is 253.8 g/mol
moles = 22.6 g÷253.8 g/mol =0.089 moles
Step 2:find the volume of I₂ at STP
At STP 1 moles =22.4 L
0.089 moles= ? L
<em>by cross multiplication</em>
={ (0.089 moles x 22.4 L) /1 mole} = 1.99 L
Answer: Cellular respiration is spontaneous and exergonic. The energy released from the glucose is stored in ATP molelcules.
Explanation:
Spontaneous reactions have an increase in entropy (level of disorder) and a decrease in enthalpy (total energy). Cellular respiration goes from a more ordered state (one molecule of glucose) to a more disordered state (several molecules of CO2), and goes from a state with a lot of free energy to one with much less free energy. As a result, respiration is a spontaneous process.
As free energy from the glucose is released as ATP molecules during oxidation, the reaction is exergonic.
Answer: 72.93 litres
Explanation:
Given that:
Volume of gas (V) = ?
Temperature (T) = 24.0°C
Convert 24.0°C to Kelvin by adding 273
(24.0°C + 273 = 297K)
Pressure (P) = 1.003 atm
Number of moles (n) = 3 moles
Molar gas constant (R) is a constant with a value of 0.0821 atm L K-1 mol-1
Then, apply ideal gas equation
pV = nRT
1.003 atm x V = 3.00 moles x 0.0821 atm L K-1 mol-1 x 297K
1.003 atm•V = 73.15 atm•L
Divide both sides by 1.003 atm
1.003 atm•V/1.003 atm = 73.15 atm•L/1.003 atm
V = 72.93 L
Thus, the volume of the gas is 72.93 litres
The three concerns that the residents of this area might be:
1) <span>The cost of not moving forward is extremely high, so they opposed the plan, as they think it would affect US economy
2) </span><span>Nuclear waste disposal capability is an environmental imperative, so their environment would be polluted by very radioactive materials.
3) </span>Demand for new nuclear plants also demands disposal capability which supports national security but again, their site will be no longer for them. But unfortunately, <span>Extensive studies consistently show Yucca Mountain to be a sound site for nuclear waste disposal so the plan can't be abolished.
Hope this helps!</span>
