How do altitude and temperature affect atmospheric pressure

1 answer:

4 0

Pressure with Height: pressure decreases with increasing altitude. The pressure at any level in the atmosphere may be interpreted as the total weight of the air above a unit area at any elevation. At higher elevations, there are fewer air molecules above a given surface than a similar surface at lower levels.

Answer:

$\boxed{6.08 \times 10^{23}}$

Explanation:

Data:

I = 2.15 A

t = 8 min 24 s

T = 26.0 °C

V = 65.4 mL

p = 774.2 To

1. Write the equation for the half-reaction

2H₂O ⟶ O₂ + 4H⁺ + 4e⁻

2. Calculate the moles of oxygen

$p = \text{774.2 To} \times \dfrac{\text{1 atm}}{\text{760 To}} = \text{1.0187 atm}$

V = 0.0654 L

T = (26.0 + 273.15) K = 299.15 K

$\begin{array}{rcl}pV& = & nRT\\1.0189 \times 0.0654 & = & n \times 0.08206 \times 299.15\\0.06662 & = & 24.55n\\\\n & = & \dfrac{0.06662}{24.55}\\\\n & = & 2.714 \times 10^{-3}\\\end{array}$

3. Calculate the moles of electrons

$\text{n} = \text{2.714 $\times 10^{-3}$ mol oxygen} \times \dfrac{\text{4 mol electrons}}{\text{ 1 mol ozygen}} = \text{ 0.01086 mol electrons}$

4. Calculate the number of coulombs

t = 8 min 24 s =504 s

Q = It = 504 s × 2.10 C·s⁻¹= 1058 C

5. Calculate the number of electrons

$\text{No. of electrons} = \text{1058 C} \times \dfrac{\text{1 electron}}{1.602 \times 10^{-19}\text{ C}} = 6.607 \times 10^{21}\text{ electrons}$

6. Calculate Avogadro's number

$N_{\text{A}} = \dfrac{6.607 \times 10^{21}}{0.01086} = \mathbf{6.08 \times 10^{23}}\\\\\text{The experimental value of Avogadro's number is } \boxed{\mathbf{6.08 \times 10^{23}}}$

Given the equilibrium: A+B <--> C. The greatest concentration of C would be produced if the equilibrium constant of the re

Ad libitum [116K]

Answer: The greatest concentration of C would be produced if the equilibrium constant of the reaction is equal to $1\times 10^9$

Explanation:

Equilibrium constant is defined as the ratio of concentration of products to the concentration of reactants each raised to the power their stoichiometric ratios. It is expressed as $K_c$

For the given chemical reaction:

$A+B\rightarrow C$

The expression for $K_c$ is written as:

$K_c=\frac{[C]}{[A][B]}$

Thus higher is the value of $K_c$ , higher will be the concentration of C. Thus the greatest concentration of C would be produced if the equilibrium constant of the reaction is equal to $1\times 10^9$

Predict the products of the reaction below. that is, complete the right-hand side of the chemical equation. be sure your equatio

kkurt [141]

The equation is as follow,

 HBr ₍aq₎ + H₂O ₍l₎ →

Solution:
HBr being strong acid with Ka value of 1.0 × 10⁹. When HBr is added to water, water acts as a base and HBr acts as a acid. Water picks the proton (H⁺) from HBr and converts into Conjugate acid (H₃O⁺) ahile HBr is converted into Conjugate Base (Br⁻) after loosing proton. The equation for this reaction is as follow,

HBr ₍aq₎ + H₂O ₍l₎ → H₃O⁺ ₍aq₎ + Br⁻ ₍aq₎

If you start with 512 grams of aluminum and 1147 grams of copper chloride to make aluminum chloride and copper, what is the limi

Archy [21]

First you need to calculate the number of moles of aluminium and copper chloride.

number of moles = mass / molecular weight

moles of Al = 512 / 27 = 19 moles

moles of CuCl = 1147 / 99 = 11.6 moles

From the reaction you see that:

if 2 moles of Al will react with 3 moles of CuCl

then 19 moles of Al will react with X moles of CuCl

X = (19 × 3) / 2 = 28.5 moles of CuCl, way more that 11.6 moles of CuCl wich is the quantity you have. So the copper chloride is the limiting reagent.
