Equal masses of he and ne are placed in a sealed container. What is the partial pressure of he if the total pressure in the cont
EastWind [94]

Answer:

6 atm.

Explanation:

Let the mass of both be m

Then moles of He = m/ 4

Moles of Ne = m/ 20

mole fraction of He = Moles of He/ Total moles = m/4/ (m/4 + m/20) = 0.25 m/0.3m = 0.83

Pressure of He = Mole fraction×total pressure = 0.83 × 6 atm = 5 atm

When the same masses are heated by the same amount, which of the following substances will heat up the slowest?
DochEvi [55]
When the same masses are heated by the same amount copper will heat up the fastest. Copper is a good conductor of heat that is why it easily heats up. Gold is not a good conductor of heat because of its stable properties.

Which of the physical variables listed below will change when you change the area of the capacitor plates (while keeping the bat
RSB [31]

Answer:

a. Capacitance

b. Charge on the plates  

e. Energy stored in the capacitor

Explanation:

Let A be the area of the capacitor plate

The capacitance of a capacitor is given as;

C = \frac{Q}{V} = \frac{\epsilon _0 A}{d} \\\\

where;

V is the potential difference between the plates

The charge on the plates is given as;

Q = \frac{V\epsilon _0 A}{d}

The energy stored in the capacitor is given as;

E = \frac{1}{2} CV^2\\\\E = \frac{1}{2} (\frac{\epsilon _0 A}{d} )V^2

Thus, the physical variables listed that will change include;

a. Capacitance

b. Charge on the plates  

e. Energy stored in the capacitor
