Answer:Rate of reaction can be determined in terms of concentration of reactants consumed or concentration of product formed per unit time

Explanation: For the reaction below

A ===>B

The reactant is A while the product given is B.

Reaction rate = Δ[B]/Δt = -Δ[A]/Δt

The concentration of A will decrease with time while the concentration of B will increases with time.

The negative sign in -Δ[A]/Δt is to convert the expression to positive since the change will always be negative (decreases)

What type of soil has the finest of all the soil particles, measuring fewer than 0.002 millimeters in size?
Olin [163]

Answer:

Clay soil

Explanation:

There are basically three types of soil namely: Sandy soil, clayey soil and loamy soil. Each of this soil type possess their own distinguishing characteristics. For example, on the basis of particle size and texture, CLAY SOIL possesses the smallest and finest particles.

Particles in a clay soil weighs lesser than 0.002 millimeters (mm) in size, making it have a high water holding or retention capacity.

Troyanec [42]

Answer:

According to the chart, the period and string length are not the same. Regardless of string length. The chart says that "period = seconds 10"

Explanation:

So for example in Trial 1. The period equaled 8.7, so in turn you would times 8.7 by 10 and get 87. Which is not equal to the string length. For they are also measured in two different measurements.

Identify the best practices when storing and using drying agents in the lab.
IrinaVladis [17]

Answer:

A. Close the drying agent container whenever it is not in active use.

C. Wrap the lid of the drying agent container with tape for storage.

Explanation:

Drying agents also known as desiccants are used in pharmaceutical, food and other manufacturing to keep substances dry. These drying agents are anhydrous and hygroscopic. The right usage of these products requires that they are always stored in an air-tight container.

When they are to be removed from a container containing a solvent, they are to be separated by filtration or decanting.

An "empty" container is not really empty if it contains air. How may moles of nitrogen are in an "empty" two-liter cola bottle a
Lisa [10]

Answer:

1. 0.0637 moles of nitrogen.

2. The partial pressure of oxygen is 0.21 atm.  

Explanation:

1. If we assume ideal behaviour, we can use the Law of ideal gases to find the moles of nitrogen, considering that air composition is mainly nitrogen (78%), oxygen (21%) and argon (1%):  

V_{N_2}=V_{T}\times 0.78=2L \times 0.78 =1.56 L\\PV=nRT\\n_{N_2}=\frac{PV}{RT}=\frac{1 atm\times 1.56 L}{0.0821\frac{atmL}{molK}\times 298 K}\\n_{N_2}= 0.0637 mol

2. Now, in order to find he partial pressure of oxygen we need to find the total moles of air, and then the moles of oxygen. Then, we use these results to determine the molar fraction of oxygen, to multiply it with total pressure and get the partial pressure of oxygen as follows:

n_{total}=\frac{1 atm \times 2L}{0.0821 \frac{atmL}{molK}298K}=0.0817 mol

V_{O_2}=2L \times 0.21 = 0.42 L\\n_{O_2}=\frac {1atm \times 0.42 L}{0.0821 \frac{atm L}{mol K}298 K}=0.0172 mol\\X_{O_2}=\frac{n_{O_2}}{n_{total}}=\frac{0.0172 mol}{0.0817 mol}= 0.21

P_{O_2}=X_{O_2} \times P = 1 atm \times 0.21 = 0.21 atm

As you see, the molar fraction and volume fraction are the same because of the assumption of ideal behaviour.
