Density of any substance can be measured using the following rule:
density = mass / volume

Since in this question, the volume of mercury is equal to the volume of water but still the mass of mercury is greater than the mass of water. 
Therefore, by substituting in the density equation, we will conclude that mercury is higher density than water.

The answer is:
<span>Mercury is denser than water</span>

Ammonia will decompose into nitrogen and hydrogen at high temperature. An industrial chemist studying this reaction fills a flas
valentina_108 [34]

Answer:

Kp = 0.022

Explanation:

<em>Full question: ...With 2.3 atm of ammonia gas at 32. °C. He then raises the temperature, and when the mixture has come to equilibrium measures the partial pressure of hydrogen gas to be 0.69 atm. </em>

<em />

The equilibrium of ammonia occurs as follows:

2NH₃(g) ⇄ N₂(g) + 3H₂(g)

Where Kp is defined as:

Kp = \frac{P_{N_2}P_{H_2}^3}{P_{NH_3}^2}

<em>Where P represents partial pressure of each gas.</em>

<em />

As initial pressure of ammonia is 2.3atm, its equilibrium concentration will be:

P(NH₃) = 2.3atm - 2X

<em>Where X represents reaction coordinate</em>

<em />

Thus, pressure of hydrogen and nitrogen is:

P(N₂) = X

P(H₂) = 3X.

As partial pressure of hydrogen is 0.69atm:

3X = 0.69

X = 0.23atm:

P(NH₃) = 2.3atm - 2(0.23atm) = 1.84atm

P(N₂) = 0.23atm

P(H₂) = 0.69atm

Kp = \frac{0.23atm*0.69atm^3}{1.84atm^2}

<h3>Kp = 0.022</h3>

What is the pH of a 0.300 M NH₃ solution that has Kb = 1.8 × 10⁻⁵ ? The equation for the dissociation of NH₃ is: NH₃ (aq) + H₂O
nalin [4]

Answer:

11.4

Explanation:

Step 1: Given data

  • Concentration of the base (Cb): 0.300 M
  • Basic dissociation constant (Kb): 1.8 × 10⁻⁵

Step 2: Write the dissociation equation

NH₃(aq) + H₂O(l) ⇄ NH₄⁺(aq) + OH⁻(aq)

Step 3: Calculate the concentration of OH⁻

We will use the following expression.

[OH^{-} ]=\sqrt{Kb \times Cb } = \sqrt{1.8  \times 10^{-5} \times 0.300 } = 2.3 \times 10^{-3} M

Step 4: Calculate the pOH

We will use the following expression.

pOH =-log[OH^{-} ]= -log(2.3 \times 10^{-3} M) = 2.6

Step 5: Calculate the pH

We will use the following expression.

pH+pOH=14\\pH = 14-pOH = 14-2.6 = 11.4

The wavelength of a given region of the electromagnetic spectrum ranges from 1 x 10-11 - 1 x 10-8 meters. Which waves are found
Fittoniya [83]
The correct answer is option B. X-rays are the waves found in the electromagnetic spectrum at a wavelength of 1x10^-11 - 1x10^-8 m and frequencies of 3x10^16 to 3x10^19 Hz. These waves penetrate easily through certain materials which made them usefule in the field of medicine.
