As refrigerant passes through the expansion valve, it cools down or heats up?

Chemistry

Answer:

It cools down

Explanation:

The expansion valve lowers down the pressure of the refrigerant (in liquid form). This allows the refrigerant to expand. As the refrigerant expands the heated molecules in it get spread to a larger area and thus the oscillatory vibrations in the molecules get reduced there by reducing the kinetic energy ( KE )and thus the heat. Also sometimes spray of Aerosols are used to cool down the refrigerant.

Determine the empirical formula of a
k0ka [10]

Answer:

AuCl

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of Gold  = 2.6444g

Mass of Chlorine  = 0.476g

Unknown:

Empirical formula  = ?

Solution:

Empirical formula is the simplest formula of a compound. Here is the way of determining this formula.

Elements                                     Au                                             Cl

Mass                                         2.6444                                     0.476

Molar mass                                 197                                          35.5

Number of moles                  2.6444/197                                 0.476/35.5

                                                 0.013                                           0.013

Divide by the

smallest                                 0.013/0.013                                 0.013/0.013

                                                       1                                                   1

The empirical formula of the compound is AuCl

These biological compounds are nonpolar and insoluble in water:
juin [17]
The biological compounds that are nonpolar and insoluble in water are lipids. It is a group of molecules that are naturally occurring which includes sterols, waxes, fats, fat-soluble vitamins and the like. These molecules are nonpolar molecules so basically the cannot be dissolved in a polar solvent like water.

A cylinder of argon contains 50 L of Ar at 12.4 atm and 127°C . How many moles of argon are in the cylinder
joja [24]

Answer:

18.9 moles

Explanation:

We have the following data:

V = 50 L

P = 12.4 atm

T= 127°C + 273 = 400 K

R = 0.082 L.atm/K.mol (it is the gas constant)

We use the ideal gas equation to calculate the number of moles n of the gas:

PV = nRT

⇒ n = PV/RT = (12.4 atm x 50 L)/(0.082 L.atm/K.mol x 400 K) = 18.9 mol
