A clastic rock is a sedimentary rock consisting of broken pieces of rock like sand grains welded together ie often cemented together by such things as silica or a calcareous cement and also by compaction. Different types of sandstone like quartz sandstone, greywacke, arkose etc are clastic rocks.

For many purposes we can treat methane as an ideal gas at temperatures above its boiling point of . Suppose the temperature of a

Elza [17]

Answer:

The volume decreases 5.5%

Explanation:

First, the question is incomplete, you are not giving the values of the temperatures and the pressure. However, I managed to find one similar question, and the given data is the temperature is lowered from 21 °C to -8°C, and the pressure decreased by 5%. If your data is different, you should only replace your data in the procedure, and you'll get an accurate result.

Now, with this data, let's see what we can do.

If this is an ideal gas, the equation to use is:

PV = nRT

Now, we know that this gas is suffering a decrease in temperature and pressure, but the moles stay the same so:

n₁ = n₂ = n

The constant R, is the same for both conditions. The only thing that differs here is the volume, temperature, and pressure. Therefore:

P₁V₁ = nRT₁ -----> n = P₁V₁ / RT₁

Doing the same with the pressure and volume 2 we have:

n = P₂V₂ / RT₂

Equalling both expressions and solving for V₂:

P₁V₁ / RT₁ = P₂V₂ / RT₂

V₂ = P₁T₂V₁ / P₂T₁

Now, as we know that P2 is 5% decreased from P1, so P2 = 0.95P1:

V₂ = P₁T₂V₁ / 0.95P₁T₁

The values of temperature in K:

T1 = 21+273 = 294 K

T2 = -8 + 273 = 265 K

Finally, let's calculate the volume:

V₂ = 264*P₁*V₁ / 294*0.95*P₁ ----> P cancels out

V₂ = 264V₁ / 294*0.95

V₁ = 0.945V₂

With this, we can day that Volume 2 decreases.

Now the percentage change would be using the following expression:

%V = (V₁ - V₂ / V₁) * 100

Replacing the data we have:

%V = V1 - 0.945V₁ / V₁

%V = 0.055V₁ / V₁ * 100

%V = 5.5%

Write the oxidation and reduction half reactions;

luda_lava [24]

Answer:

$Fe^{2+}$ ⇒ $Fe^{3+}+e^-$

$Br_2+2e^-$ ⇒ $2Br^-$

$Mg$ ⇒ $Mg^{2+}+2e^-$

$Cr^{3+}+e^-$ ⇒ $Cr^{3+}$

Explanation:

Remember that positive number superscripts mean electrons lack and negative numbers mean electrons 'excess' (if we compare it with the neutral element). So, for the case of Fe2+ which is converted to Fe3+, we know that in Fe2+ there is a two electrons lack, while in Fe3+ there is a 3 electrons lack; it means that Fe2+ was converted to Fe3+ but releasing one electron:

$Fe^{2+}$ ⇒ $Fe^{3+}+e^-$

The same analysis is applied to Br2; Br2 is a molecule which is said to have a zero superscript because it is an apolar covalent bond; and it is converted to Br-, which, according to what I wrote above, means that there is a one electron excess. So, Br2 must have received an electron in order to change to Br-; but Br2 can't change to Br- as simple as that because Br2 is a molecule, not an atom; it is a molecule that has two Br atoms, so, Br2 must give two Br- ions as products, but receiving one electron for each one:

$Br_2+2e^-$ ⇒ $2Br^-$

Applying the same, in Mg2+ there is a 2 electrons lack, and in Mg is not electron lack (its superscript is zero), so Mg must have released two electrons in order to change to Mg2+:

$Mg$ ⇒ $Mg^{2+}+2e^-$

Cr3+ has a 3 electrons lack, and Cr2+ a two electrons one, so, Cr3+ must receive an electron to convert to Cr2+:

$Cr^{3+}+e^-$ ⇒ $Cr^{3+}$

A doctor's Order is 0.125 g of ampicillin. The liquid suspension on hand contains 250 mg/s. How many milliliters (mL) of the sus

Molodets [167]

Answer:

c) 2.5 mL

Explanation:

Solution

Doctors order = 0.125g

and

The liquid suspension concentration = 250 mg/5ml

= 0.250g/5ml

Or 0.05g/ml

Amount of ml of suspension required = 0.125g/(0.05g/ml) = 2.5ml
