Experimental observations on the behavior of gases can be explained by a simple theoretical model known as the kinetic molecular theory, which is used to explain the laws of gases determined experimentally.

This theory is based on a series of postulates. <em>One of the postulates that could explain why in a sample of oxygen at constant temperature the kinetic energy of all the balls remains constant is: </em>

  • <u>Collisions between gas particles or collisions with the vessel walls are perfectly elastic. None of the energy of a gas particle is lost when it collides with another particle or with the walls of the vessel. </u>

Explanation: If the oxygen particles lose energy when colliding with each other or with the walls of the container then their kinetic energy will decrease with time. This is analogous to a bouncing ball. When dropping a ball vertically, it will be observed that with each rebound it will reach a lower height, which is due to the loss of kinetic energy by friction with the ground or with the air that surrounds it.

Answer:

K₂Cr₂O₇(s) ⇒ 2 K⁺(aq) + Cr₂O₇²⁻(aq)

Explanation:

Potassium dichromate (K₂Cr₂O₇) is a strong electrolyte, that is, when dissolved in water (the medium), it dissociates in cation potassium (K⁺) and anion dichromate (Cr₂O₇²⁻). The balanced dissociation equation is:

K₂Cr₂O₇(s) ⇒ 2 K⁺(aq) + Cr₂O₇²⁻(aq)

This stadium can hold 100,000, or 1 x 10^5, people. The number of atoms in a grain of iron is about 1 x 10^18. Would you need 1 
polet [3.4K]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

1 x 10^13 stadiums

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

From the question;

1 x 10^5 people can fill 1 stadium

We are given,  1 x 10^18 atoms of iron

We are required to determine the number of stadiums that  1 x 10^18 atoms of iron would occupy.

We are going to assume that a stadium would occupy a number of atoms equivalent to the number of people.

Therefore;

One stadium =  1 x 10^5 atoms

Then, to find the number of stadiums that will be occupied by  1 x 10^18 atoms;

No. of stadiums = Total number of atoms ÷ Atoms in a single stadium

                           =  1 x 10^18 atoms ÷  1 x 10^5 atoms

                          =  1 x 10^13 stadiums

Therefore,  1 x 10^18 atoms of iron would occupy  1 x 10^13 stadiums
