Why are the gases in the troposphere layer denser than the gases in the other layers? Give reasons for your answer.

1 answer:

5 0

The troposphere has the most density because it has the most air pressure. As you get higher in the atmosphere, the air gets thinner, which is why people who climb high mountains get sick because the air is not thick enough for them to breathe.

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

<u>Step 1: Define</u>

[RxN - Unbalanced] Mg + N₂ → Mg₃N₂

[RxN - Balanced] 3Mg + N₂ → Mg₃N₂

[Given] 1.22 g Mg

[Solve] grams Mg₃N₂

<u>Step 2: Identify Conversions</u>

[RxN] 3 mol Mg → Mg₃N₂

[PT] Molar Mass of Mg - 24.31 g/mol

[PT] Molar Mass of N - 14.01 g/mol

Molar Mass of Mg₃N₂ - 3(24.31) + 2(14.01) = 100.95 g/mol

<u>Step 3: Stoich</u>

[DA] Set up: $\displaystyle 1.22 \ g \ Mg(\frac{1 \ mol \ Mg}{24.31 \ g \ Mg})(\frac{1 \ mol \ Mg_3N_2}{3 \ mol \ Mg})(\frac{100.95 \ g \ Mg_3N_2}{1 \ mol\ Mg_3N_2})$
[DA] Multiply/Divide [Cancel out units]: $\displaystyle 1.68873 \ g \ Mg_3N_2$

<u>Step 4: Check</u>

<em>Follow sig fig rules and round. We are given 3 sig figs.</em>

1.68873 g Mg₃N₂ ≈ 1.69 g Mg₃N₂

How many liters of water can be made from 55 grams of oxygen gas and an excess of hydrogen at a pressure of 12.4 atm and a tempe

polet [3.4K]

First, we need the no.of moles of O2 = mass/molar mass of O2
= 55 g / 32 g/mol
= 1.72 mol
from the balanced equation of the reaction:
2H2 (g) + O2(g) → 2H2O(g)
we can see that the molar ratio between O2: H2O = 1: 2
So we can get the no.of moles of H2O = 2 * moles of O2
= 2 * 1.72 mol
= 3.44 mol
So by substitution by this value in ideal gas formula:
PV = nRT

when P = 12.4 atm & n H2O = 3.44 mol & R= 0.0821 & T = 85 + 273=358K

12.4 atm *V = 3.44 * 0.0821 * 358 = 8.15 L
∴ V ≈ 8.2 L

zhenek [66]

Answer:

the correct answer is b antifreeze protects the radiator during summer in winter.

Explanation:

Antifreeze is (typically mixed with water) to help manage the engine during extreme temperatures. As the temperature fluctuates between hot and cold coolant is distributed throughout the engine block to sustain even operating temperature.
