It gets larger because
well let me give you an example
so today in class we looked at a lava lamp with wax inside and there was a lightbulb at the bottom.
we watched as the wax floated up because the molecules inside the wax spreads out and makes the wax less dense.
the wax floats up because (which is related to the balloon getting bigger) the wax is getting less dense and the particles get bigger which ALSO makes the wax less dense.
hope this helps and hope you can relate it to your problem! say thanks if I did help AT ALL! :)

Answer:

The mass do not change.

Explanation:

The air that is trapped inside the balloon starts expanding when the balloon is heated. This happen because the air molecules move away from each other. This results in the expansion of the balloon.

In the whole process, the mass of air trapped inside balloon do not change. Also, there is no change in the balloon itself. Thus mass remains the same. Though, the volume changes due to expansion of the balloon.

A 56.6-kg crate rests on a level floor at a shipping dock. The coefficients of static and kinetic friction are 0.517 and 0.260,
kifflom [539]

Answer:

Explanation:

Magnitude of frictional force = μ mg

μ is either static or kinetic friction.

To start the crate moving , static friction is calculated .

a ) To start crate moving , force required = μ mg where μ is coefficient of static friction .

force required =.517 x 56.6  x 9.8 = 286.76  N .

b ) to  slide the crate across the dock at a constant speed , force required

= μ mg where μ is coefficient of kinetic  friction , where μ is kinetic friction

= .26 x 56.6  x 9.8 = 144.21 N .

A mixture of nitrogen and xenon gases, at a total pressure of 836 mm Hg, contains 2.80 grams of nitrogen and 24.9 grams of xenon
larisa86 [58]

Answer: Partial pressure of nitrogen and xenon are 288mmHg and 548 mmHg respectively.

Explanation:

The partial pressure of a gas is given by Raoult's law, which is:

p_A=p_T\times \chi_A

where,

p_A = partial pressure of substance A

p_T = total pressure

\chi_A = mole fraction of substance A

We are given:

m_{N_2}=2.80g

m_{Xe}=24.9g

Mole fraction of a substance is given by:

\chi_A=\frac{n_A}{n_A+n_B}

And,

n_A=\frac{m_A}{M_A}

Mole fraction of nitrogen is given as:

\chi_{N_2}=\frac{\frac{m_{N_2}}{M_{N_2}}}{(\frac{m_{N_2}}{M_{N_2}}+\frac{m_{Xe}}{M_{Xe}})}

Molar mass of N_2 = 28 g/mol

Molar mass of Xe =  g/mol

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\chi_{N_2}=\frac{\frac{2.80}{28}}{\frac{2.80}{28}+\frac{24.9}{131}}

\chi_{N_2}=\frac{0.100}{0.100+0.190}=0.345

To calculate the mole fraction of xenon, we use the equation:

\chi_{Xe}+\chi_{N_2}=1\\\\\chi_{Xe}=1-0.345=0.655

p_{N_2}=836mmHg\times 0.345=288mmHg

p_{Xe}=836mmHg\times 0.655=548mmHg

Thus partial pressure of nitrogen and xenon are 288mmHg and 548 mmHg respectively.

2. What mechanism would you use to safely capture emissions?
devlian [24]

Carbon capture is the safest way to capture emission.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Emission of green house gases is one of the most lurking threat above humans. So one of the best ways to reduce emission is to capture the gases like carbon di-oxide or carbon monoxide, nitrous oxide etc. So mostly, the carbon di-oxide gas which is produced as waste is captured using adsorption, absorption, chemical looping etc.

In this method, they are captured from high source points like cement factory etc and then stored in a secluded region. Thus, the adsorption of these gases and then storing them in secluded region is the best option for capturing emission.
