Answer: d. a medium

Explanation: Mechanical waves are waves are oscillations of matter and thus transfer energy through material medium unlike electromagnetic waves which do not require material medium to propagate.

Mechanical waves may be longitudinal or transverse waves.

Sound waves are example of mechanical waves and thuds cannot travel in vacuum whereas light is an electromagnetic wave which can travel in vacuum.

Now they feel it is best to have you identify an unknown gas based on its properties. Suppose 0.508 g of a gas occupies a volume

pishuonlain [190]

Answer: Option (b) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

mass = 0.508 g, Volume = 0.175 L

Temperature = (25 + 273) K = 298 K, P = 1 atm

As per the ideal gas law, PV = nRT.

where, n = no. of moles = $\frac{mass}{\text{molar mass}}$

Hence, putting all the given values into the ideal gas equation as follows.

PV = $\frac{mass}{\text{molar mass}} \times RT$

1 atm \times 0.175 L = $\frac{0.508 g}{\text{molar mass}} \times 0.0821 L atm/ K mol \times 298 K$

= 71.02 g

As the molar mass of a chlorine atom is 35.4 g/mol and it exists as a gas. So, molar mass of $Cl_{2}$ is 70.8 g/mol or 71 g/mol (approx).

Thus, we can conclude that the gas is most likely chlorine.

How many moles of aluminum oxide will be produced from 0.50 mol of oxygen? 4 al + 3 o2 2 al2o3?

LuckyWell [14K]

From the equation;
4 Al + 3 O2 = 2 Al2O3
The mole ratio of Oxygen is to Aluminium hydroxide is 3:2.
Therefore; moles of Al2O3 is
(0.5/3 )× 2 = 0.333 moles
Therefore; The moles of aluminium oxide will be 0.333 moles
