A balloon is filled with helium at sea level. The volume was measured to be 3.1 liters at a pressure of 0.97 atmosphere. If the

balloon is released, it drifts upward. At a height of 4 kilometers, the pressure is measured to be 0.61 atmospheres. What is the volume of the balloon?

Answer:

The volume of the balloon is 4.92 L at the height of 4 km.

Explanation:

Initial Volume of the helium gas V_1= 3.1 L

Initial pressure of the helium gas P_1= 0.97 atm

Final volume of the helium gas = V_2

Final pressure of the helium gas =P_2=0.61 atm

Applying Boyle's law:

P_1V_1=P_2V_2 (At constant temperature)

V_2=\frac{P_1\times V_1}{P_2}=\frac{0.97 atm\times 3.1 L}{0.61 L}

V_2=4.92 L

The volume of the balloon is 4.92 L at the height of 4 km.

Elanso [62]

Answer:

0.48 V

Explanation:

Zn(s) ------------> Zn^2+(aq) + 2e. Oxidation half equation (-0.76V)

Co^2+(aq) + 2e-----------> Co(s). Reduction half equation (-0.28)

Zn(s) + Co^2+(aq) -------------> Zn^2+(aq) + Co(s) overall redox equation

Zinc is the anode while cobalt is the cathode.

E°cell= E°cathode - E°anode

E°cell= -0.28-(-0.76)= 0.48 V

How are the conditions at which phases are in equilibrium represented on a phase diagram?

Image result for How are the conditions at which phases are in equilibrium represented on a phase diagram?

Along the line between liquid and solid, the melting temperatures for different pressures can be found. The junction of the three curves, called the triple point, represents the unique conditions under which all three phases exist in equilibrium together. Phase diagrams are specific for each substance and mixture.
