Answer:

Z = 16.0\ kPa\ mm^3\ s^{-1} = 16.0\times 10^{-3}\ mJ.s^{-1}

Explanation:

Unit conversion is the multi-step process which involves the multiplication or the division by a specified numerical factor as well as the selection of the correct number of the significant digits and rounding.

There are various units in which physical parameters are expressed. In the given question qunatity is given in kPa\ mm^3\ s^{-1} which has to be converted to mJ.s^{-1}.

Further Explanation:

The given unit conversion includes two steps:

Step 1  

Conversion from kPa.mm^3.s^{-1} to Pa.m^3.s^{-1}

1kPa = 10^3\ Pa

1\ mm^3=10^{-9} m^3

Z = 16.0\ kPa\ mm^3\ s^{-1}

= 16.0\times (kPa\times \frac{10^3\ Pa}{1\ kPa} )\time (mm^3 \times \frac{10^{-9}\ m^3}{1\ mm^3} ).s^{-1}  

=16.0\times 10^{-6} Pa.m^3.s^{-1}

Step 2

Convesion from =16.0\times 10^{-6} Pa.m^3.s^{-1} to J.s^{-1}

1\ Pa=1 \frac{N}{m^2}

1 N.m = 1 J

=16.0\times 10^{-6} Pa.m^3.s^{-1} = 16.0 \times \frac{N}{m^2} .m^3 .s^{-1}
[tex]=16.0\times 10^{-6}\ J.s^{-1}

1\ J = 10^{3}\ mJ

16.0\times 10^{-6}\ J.s^{-1}=16.0\times (J\times \frac{10^3\ mJ}{1\ J}).s^{-1}

=16.0\times 10^{-3}\ mJ.s^{-1}

This problem requires our calculation to undergo the dimensional analysis approach. In this approach, you disregard the actual quantity and focus on the units of measurement. This helps us know the units of our final answer. 

First, let's ignore 16. Let's focus on converting the units kPa-mm³/s to mJ/s. The unit kPa stands for kiloPascals which is 1000 times greater than 1 Pa. The unit mJ, on the other hand, stands for millijoules, which is 1000 times lesser than Joules. The relationship between the two is that, Joules = Pa × m³. But since we want our final answer to be mJ, that would be equal to Pa×mm³. Since the original unit already contains mm³, all we have to do is convert kPa to Pa. 

16 kPa-mm³/s * (1000 Pa/1 kPa) = 16,000 Pa-mm³/s

Since Pa-mm³ is equal to mJ, the final conversion yields to 16,000 Pa-mm³/s.

For the reaction A (g) → 2 B (g), K = 14.7 at 298 K. What is the value of Q for this reaction at 298 K when ∆G = -20.5 kJ/mol?
harina [27]

Answer:

Q= 245 =2.5 * 10^2

Explanation:

ΔG = ΔGº + RTLnQ, so also ΔGº= - RTLnK

R= 8,314 J/molK, T=298K

ΔGº= - RTLnK = - 6659.3 J/mol = - 6.7 KJ/mol

ΔG = ΔGº + RTLnQ → -20.5KJ/mol = - 6.7 KJ/mol + 2.5KJ/mol* LnQ

→ 5.5 = LnQ → Q= 245 =2.5 * 10^2

On the atomic level energy and matter exhibit the characteristics of
shepuryov [24]

Answer:

  • <em>On the atomic level, energy and matter exhibit the characteristics of </em><u>both waves and particles.</u>

Explanation:

The dual behavior of subatomic particles as waves and particles is known as the wave - particle duality.

And this principle is the basis of the quantum theory.

Such principle is widely applied to the electrons; i.e., the electrons posses wave and particle propeties, which must be understodd as that some of their properties may be explained as if they were particles and others as if they were waves.

For example, from the particle point of view electrons have mass. You can find in internet that the mass of one electron is about 9.1093837015×10⁻³¹ kg or about 1/1836 times the mass of one proton.)

Since, the point of view of the wave characteristics, electrons have wavelength, Louis de Broglie deduced the equation that relates the wavelength and the mass, through this realtion:

  • Wavelength (λ) =  Planck’s constant (h) divided by the product of the mass (m) and the the speed (v) of the particle.

         λ = h / mv

A gas that has a volume of 28 liters, a temperature of 42°C, and an unknown pressure has its volume increased to 49 liters and i
Sedaia [141]

Answer:

7.35atm

Explanation:

Data obtained from the question include:

V1 = 28L

T1 = 42°C = 42 + 273 = 315K

P1 =?

V2 = 49L

T2 = 27°C = 27 + 273 = 300K

P2 = 4atm

Using P1V1/T1 = P2V2/T2, the original pressure can be obtained as follows:

P1V1/T1 = P2V2/T2

P1 x 28/315 = 4 x 49/300

Cross multiply to express in linear form

P1 x 28 x 300 = 315 x 4 x 49

Divide both side by 28 x 300

P1 = (315 x 4 x 49) /(28 x 300)

P1 = 7.35atm

Therefore, the original pressure is 7.35atm
