Explain why a propane torch is lit inside a hot air balloon during preflight preparations. Which gas law applies?

Chemistry
2 answers:
xenn [34]3 years ago

Answer: The gas law which applies here is :Charle's Law

Explanation:

The main principle behind this is that, warm air rises in the cooler air.Which implies that hot air is less denser than the cooler air. Due to this property hot air rises up in the sky.

Density decrease with increase in volume due to this hot air balloon rises up in the air

Also the volume occupied by the gas increase with increase in temperature at constant pressure known as Charle's law.

So, during preflight the propane torch is lit to warm up the air present inside the balloon.

Propane torch is lit inside a hot air balloon during pre-flight preparation because the heat from the touch is needed to heat the cold air inside the balloon, so that the air will expand and become less dense and rise, thus providing a lift for the balloon. This is line with charle's law, which states that, the volume of a fixed mass of ideal gas is directly proportional to the absolute temperature. This law implies that, as the temperature of the air inside the balloon increase, the volume of the balloon also increases.

Metals have low ionization energies and readily share their ________ or outer electrons with each other to form an electron ____
Dmitry [639]

Explanation:

Metals are the species which readily lose electrons in order to attain stability. This electron lost by the atom is actually present in its outermost shell which is also known as valence shell.

Ionization energy is defined as the energy required to remove the most loosely bound electron from a neutral gaseous atom.

When we move across a period from left to right then there occurs a decrease in atomic size of the atoms. Therefore, ionization energy increases along a period.  

But when we move down a group then there occurs an increase in atomic size of the atoms due to addition of number of electrons in the atoms. Hence, ionization energy decreases along a group.

Thus, we can conclude that metals have low ionization energies and readily share their valence or outer electrons with each other to form an electron sea. These electrons are delocalized or shared among all the atoms that are bonded together and can therefore move freely throughout the metal structure.

Vitamin C contains the elements C, H, and O. It is known to contain 40.9% C and 4.58% H by mass. The molar mass of vitamin C has
soldier1979 [14.2K]

Answer:

C₆H₈O₆

Explanation:

First off, the<u> percent of oxygen by mass</u> of vitamin C is:

  • 100 - (40.9+4.58) = 54.52 %

<em>Assume we have one mol of vitamin C</em>. Then we would have <em>180 grams</em>, of which:

  • 180 * 40.9/100 = 73.62 grams are of Carbon
  • 180 * 4.58/100 = 8.224 grams are of Hydrogen
  • 180 * 54.52/100 = 98.136 grams are of Oxygen

Now we <u>convert each of those masses to moles</u>, using the <em>elements' respective atomic mass</em>:

  • C ⇒ 73.62 g ÷ 12 g/mol = 6.135 mol C ≅ 6 mol C
  • H ⇒ 8.224 g ÷ 1 g/mol = 8.224 mol H ≅ 8 mol H
  • O ⇒ 98.136 g ÷ 16 g/mol = 6.134 mol O ≅ 6 mol O

So the molecular formula for vitamin C is C₆H₈O₆
