He Sprite and Banana Challenge consists of eating two bananas and then drinking a liter of Sprite. This causes you to projectile vomit and throw up all over the place!

The experiment with eating two bananas and then drinking a Sprite has not shown any chemical reaction by people who have done the experiment. People who have studied this believe that it makes some people vomit simply because it is a lot of food to put in your stomach at one time. Most people do not vomit, rather they tend to feel sick after.... i know this because ive done the challenge xD

Consider the reaction 2N2(g) O2(g)2N2O(g) Using the standard thermodynamic data in the tables linked above, calculate Grxn for t

ratelena [41]

Answer:

$\Delta G^0 _{rxn} = 207.6\ kJ/mol$

ΔG ≅ 199.91 kJ

Explanation:

Consider the reaction:

$2N_{2(g)} + O_{2(g)} \to 2N_2O_{(g)}$

temperature = 298.15K

pressure = 22.20 mmHg

From, The standard Thermodynamic Tables; the following data were obtained

$\Delta G_f^0 \ \ \ N_2O_{(g)} = 103 .8 \ kJ/mol$

$\Delta G_f^0 \ \ \ N_2{(g)} =0 \ kJ/mol$

$\Delta G_f^0 \ \ \ O_2{(g)} =0 \ kJ/mol$

$\Delta G^0 _{rxn} = 2 \times \Delta G_f^0 \ N_2O_{(g)} - ( 2 \times \Delta G_f^0 \ N_2{(g)} + \Delta G_f^0 \ O_{2(g)})$

$\Delta G^0 _{rxn} = 2 \times 103.8 \ kJ/mol - ( 2 \times 0 + 0)$

$\Delta G^0 _{rxn} = 207.6\ kJ/mol$

The equilibrium constant determined from the partial pressure denoted as $K_p$ can be expressed as :

$K_p = \dfrac{(22.20)^2}{(22.20)^2 \times (22.20)}$

$K_p = \dfrac{1}{ (22.20)}$

$K_p$ = 0.045

$\Delta G = \Delta G^0 _{rxn} + RT \ lnK$

where;

R = gas constant = 8.314 × 10⁻³ kJ

$\Delta G =207.6 + 8.314 \times 10 ^{-3} \times 298.15 \ ln(0.045)$

$\Delta G =207.6 + 2.4788191 \times \ ln(0.045)$

$\Delta G =207.6+ (-7.687048037)$

$\Delta G =$ 199.912952 kJ

ΔG ≅ 199.91 kJ

How many times a one pound (2.2 kg) block of iron can be split in half before it stops being iron.

aleksley [76]

Answer:

Number of times a one pound (2.2 kg) block of iron can be split in half before it stops being iron

= 84.29 times

Explanation:

Atoms : It is the smallest indivisible particle of the matter .

The atom can not be further breakdown .

Here in this question , we have to find the number of atoms (because it is the last possible situation for breaking of atom)

Mole : The quantity of the substance that contain as many particles as present in 12 g of C-12.It is quantity which Avogadro number(N0) of particles

$N_{0}=6.022\times 10^{23}$

1.First calculate the number of moles of Fe in 2.2Kg Block

Mass of Iron (Fe) = 55.845 amu

Molar mass of Iron = 55.845 g

Given mass = 2.2 kg

1 kg = 1000 g

2.2 kg = 2200 g

$moles = \frac{given\ mass}{Molar\ mass}$

$moles = \frac{2200}{55.845}Moles of Fe = 39.39 2.Calculate the number of particles of Fe in 39.39 moles of Block[tex]moles = \frac{Number\ of\ Particles}{Avogadro\ number}$

$Avogadro\ number = 6.022\times 10^{23}$

moles = 39.39

$39.39 = \frac{Number\ of\ Particles}{N_{0}}$

$Number\ of\ Particles=39.39\times 6.022\times 10^{23}$

$Number\ of\ Particles= 2.37\times 10^{25}$

$2.37\times 10^{25}$ atoms

3.Calculate Number of time(n), the block is split into -Half 

$2^{n}=2.37\times 10^{25}$

Take log both side ,

$n\ log2 = log(2.37\times 10^{25})$

Solve for n, you get

n= 84.29 (convert it to nearest whole number)

n = 84 times

A fusion reaction takes place between carbon and another element. Neutrons are released, and a different element is formed. The

sdas [7]

Answer:

Dependent on the element that reacted with carbon

Explanation:

Nuclear fusion is the combination of small atomic nuclei into larger ones usually accompanied with the release of a large amount of energy.

From the problem stated, carbon fuses with another atom. The combined atom would have more nuclear particles in terms of protons and neutrons than the combining atoms. This will eventually make it weigh more than carbon and the atom it combines with. The resulting weight will depend on the combining atoms eventually.

How does a lithium cation compare to a lithium atom?

ExtremeBDS [4]

The correct answer is gonna be C) A lithium cation ion is smaller

A lithium cation has lost its valence electrons, which causes the remaining electrons to be pulled in stronger by the positive charge in the nucleus. As they get closer to the nucleus, the overall size of the atom is decreased.
