Consider two equal-volume flasks of gas at the same temperature and pressure. One gas, oxygen, has a molecular mass of 32. The o

san4es73 [151]

Answer: The ratio of the number of oxygen molecules to the number of nitrogen molecules in these flasks is 1: 1

Explanation:

According to avogadro's law, equal volumes of all gases at same temperature and pressure have equal number of moles.

According to avogadro's law, 1 mole of every substance contains avogadro's number $6.023\times 10^{23}$ of particles.

Thus as oxygen and nitrogen are at same temperature and pressure and are in equal volume flasks , they have same number of moles and thus have same number of molecules.

The ratio of the number of oxygen molecules to the number of nitrogen molecules in these flasks is 1: 1

The compound methylamine, CH3NH2, is a weak base when dissolved in water. Write the Kb expression for the weak base equilibrium

Veronika [31]

Answer:

Kb = [CH₃NH₃⁺] × [OH⁻] / [CH₃NH₂]

Explanation:

According to Brönsted-Lowry acid-base theory:

An acid is a substance that donates H⁺.
A base is a substance that accepts H⁺.

When methylamine reacts with water, it behaves as a Brönsted-Lowry base, according to the following reaction.

CH₃NH₂(aq) + H₂O(l) ⇄ CH₃NH₃⁺(aq) + OH⁻(aq)

The basic equilibrium constant (Kb) is:

Kb = [CH₃NH₃⁺] × [OH⁻] / [CH₃NH₂]

What is the energy released in this β − β − nuclear reaction 40 19 K → 40 20 C a + 0 − 1 e 19 40 K → 20 40 C a + − 1 0 e ? (The

Effectus [21]

<u>Answer:</u> The energy released in the given nuclear reaction is 1.3106 MeV.

<u>Explanation:</u>

For the given nuclear reaction:

$_{19}^{40}\textrm{K}\rightarrow _{20}^{40}\textrm{Ca}+_{-1}^{0}\textrm{e}$

We are given:

Mass of $_{19}^{40}\textrm{K}$ = 39.963998 u

Mass of $_{20}^{40}\textrm{Ca}$ = 39.962591 u

To calculate the mass defect, we use the equation:

$\Delta m=\text{Mass of reactants}-\text{Mass of products}$

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$\Delta m=(39.963998-39.962591)=0.001407u$

To calculate the energy released, we use the equation:

$E=\Delta mc^2\\E=(0.001407u)\times c^2$

$E=(0.001407u)\times (931.5MeV)$ (Conversion factor: $1u=931.5MeV/c^2$ )

$E=1.3106MeV$

Hence, the energy released in the given nuclear reaction is 1.3106 MeV.
