Atoms are considered the smallest particles of an element because they are the basic unit. They cannot be broken down into any smaller substance.

They are considered the smallest part of an element because when you break down an element into smaller and smaller parts, theoretically when you reach thed smallest part and you cant break it any more, it will be one atom of whatever element you are breaking down.

What helps to regulate weather around the globe?

skad [1K]

I would say that oceans help regulate weather, gobal warming, and solar radiation, but also depends on the level of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere level. So basically the oceans absorbs heat radiation from the sun and it retains the heat, which then the atmosphere comes in and also helps retain the heat which then releases the heat after sunset into space, regulating weather around the globe, since most of the globe is also covered by oceans and water.

If you are playing pool and hit the cue ball at the stationary 8 ball, what should happen?

jolli1 [7]

Answer If a ball goes into a pocket and bounces back on to the playing surface, it is not considered pocketed. If it is the 8-ball, it is not a win. If it is the cue ball, it is not a scratch.

How many moles of gas would you have if you have a volume of 38.0 L under a pressure of 1430 mmHg at standard temperature

seraphim [82]

Answer: There are 3.2 moles of gas if you have a volume of 38.0 L under a pressure of 1430 mmHg at standard temperature.

Explanation:

Given: Volume = 38.0 L

Pressure = 1430 mm Hg (1 mm Hg = 0.00131579 atm) = 1.9 atm

Temperature = 273.15 K

Using ideal gas equation, the moles of gas will be calculated as follows.

$PV = nRT\\$

where,

P = pressure

V = volume

n = no. of moles

R = gas constant = 0.0821 L atm/mol K

T =temperature

Substitute the values into above formula as follows.

$PV = nRT\\1.9 atm \times 38.0 L = n \times 0.0821 L atm/mol K \times 273.15 K\\n = \frac{1.9 atm \times 38.0 L}{0.0821 L atm/mol K \times 273.15 K}\\= 3.2 mol$

Thus, we can conclude that there are 3.2 moles of gas if you have a volume of 38.0 L under a pressure of 1430 mmHg at standard temperature.
