Answer:

4.61 atm

Explanation:

This question seeks to test our knowledge on conversion of millimeter of mercury (mmHg) to atmospheric pressure (atm).

The numeric relationship between mmHg and atm is given below

1 atm ⇒ 760 mmHg, hence

X atm ⇒ 3,506 mmHg (where X is the unknown)

If you cross multiply the above, you will have

X = $\frac{3,506 * 1}{760}$

X = 4.61 atm

Thus, 4.61 atm is the atmospheric pressure of the gas exerted on the cylinder

Converting between atmospheres and millimeters of mercury. One atm. equals 760.0 mm Hg, so there will be a multiplication or division based on the direction of the change. Solution: multiply the atm value by 760.0 mmHg / atm.
answer=
$3506 \div 760 = 4.6746 \: atm$

Describe how visible spectroscopy could be used to determine the order of a reaction in which a single colorless reactant produc

d1i1m1o1n [39]

Answer:

Explanation:

In a reaction, where, one of the reactant produces a colored product, visible spectroscopy can be used to determined the order of a reaction, the change in concentration of the reactant which forms the colored product is determined by absorbance measurement over time. The data for the concentration and time are plotted on the y and x axis and If we get a straight line it is a zero-order reaction. If instead, a plot of ln[concentration] versus time gives a straight line, it is a first order reaction. However, If 1/concentration versus time gives a straight line, it is a second order reaction kinetics. The other reactants may be changed while keeping this reactant as constant and change on rate of the reaction is observed to see If the other reactant affects the reaction or not.

The volume of a Goodyear Blimp is 2.5x10^7 L, which is occupied by 1.7x10^6 mol of helium. What is the internal pressure of the

attashe74 [19]

Answer:

1.7 bar

Explanation:

We can use the <em>Ideal Gas Law</em> to calculate the individual gas pressure.

pV = nRT Divide both sides by V

p = (nRT)/V

Data: n = 1.7 × 10⁶ mol

R = 0.083 14 bar·L·K⁻¹mol⁻¹

T = 22 °C

V = 2.5 × 10⁷ L

Calculations:

(a) <em>Change the temperature to kelvins </em>

T = (22 + 273.15) K

= 295.15 K

(b) Calculate the pressure

p = (1.7 × 10⁶ × 0.083 14 × 295.15)/(2.5× 10⁷)

= 1.7 bar

Len [333]

Answer:

Atmosphere.

Explanation:

Carbon moves from fossil fuels to the atmosphere when fuels are burned. When humans burn fossil fuels to power factories, power plants, cars and trucks, most of the carbon quickly enters the atmosphere as carbon dioxide gas.

What we call "tin cans" are really iron cans coated with a thin layer of tin. The anode is a bar of tin and the cathode is the i

UNO [17]

Answer:

$Fe (s) + Sn^{2+} (aq)\rightarrow Fe^{2+} (aq) + Sn (s)$

Explanation:

Although the context is not clear, let's look at the oxidation and reduction processes that will take place in a Fe/Sn system.

The problem states that anode is a bar of thin. Anode is where the process of oxidation takes place. According to the abbreviation 'OILRIG', oxidation is loss, reduction is gain. Since oxidation occurs at anode, this is where loss of electrons takes place. That said, tin loses electrons to become tin cation:

$Sn (s)\rightarrow Sn^{2+} (aq) + 2e^-$

Similarly, iron is cathode. Cathode is where reduction takes place. Reduction is gain of electrons, this means iron cations gain electrons and produce iron metal:

$Fe^{2+} (aq) + 2e^-\rightarrow Fe (s)$

The net equation is then:

$Sn (s) + Fe^{2+} (aq)\rightarrow Fe (s) + Sn^{2+} (aq)$

However, this is not the case, as this is not a spontaneous reaction, as iron metal is more reactive than tin metal, and this is how the coating takes place. This implies that actually anode is iron and cathode is tin:

Actual anode half-equation:

$Fe (s)\rightarrow Fe^{2+} (aq) + 2e^-$

Actual cathode half-equation:

$Sn^{2+} (aq) + 2e^-\rightarrow Sn (s)$

Actual net reaction:

$Fe (s) + Sn^{2+} (aq)\rightarrow Fe^{2+} (aq) + Sn (s)$
