The difference between an element and a compound is that an element is composed of only one kind of atom while a compound is composed of at least 2 kinds of atoms. The properties of an element and the compound the atoms has to form are different physically and chemically.Example of element are O and H, while compound examples are H2O and H2O2.

The total pressure in a tank fill with a mixture of gasses : Oxygen, Helium, and Argon is 15.3 atm. The phe = 3.2 atm , Po= 7.4
Kisachek [45]

Answer:

Partial pressure of Ar = 4.7 atm

Explanation:

Total pressure of a mixture of gases = Sum of partial pressure of each gas

This mixture contains: O₂, He and Ar.

Total pressure = 15.3 atm

Total pressure = Partial pressure O₂ + Partial pressure of He + Partial pressure of Ar

15.3 atm = 7.4 atm + 3.2 atm + Partial pressure of Ar

Partial pressure of Ar = 15.3 atm - 7.4 atm - 3.2 atm

Partial pressure of Ar = 4.7 atm

A water tank measures 24in.×48in.×12in. Find the capacity of the water tank in cubic feet. Do not include units in your answer.
LenKa [72]

<em>Answer:</em> 8 (feet)

<em>Explanation:</em>

24 inches = 2 feet

48 inches = 4 feet

12 inches = 1 foot

To find volume you do Base * Width * Height

2*4*1 = 8

Hope this helps!

Why was it important to let the solution cool down before conducting the titration experiment?
Papessa [141]

Answer:

The pH range, reaction rate, accuracy and solubility are affected by the temperature.

Explanation:

Hello,

Temperature is factor affecting how solutions behave, thus, it could modify the pH range (change in color values) for an indicator in the presence of a base or an acid, since the kinetics behind the change of color is modified maybe decreasing or increasing the aforesaid range. Next, temperature usually increases the reaction rate, that's why the change in color could become faster or out of the proper change range. Then, in titration we use temperature-sensitive glassware which could expand due to high temperatures and subsequently turning out into wrong measurements. Finally, solubility is affected by the temperature, since the molecules are allowed to interact more effectively, that's we must make sure that they're completely dissolved at room temperature while titrating.

Best regards.
