Answer:
Paraffin oil is used for determination of boiling point and melting point for the following reasons: It has a very high boiling point and so it can be used to maintain high temperatures in the boiling and melting point apparatus without loss of the substance.
Answer:
For your first question, Curium does not occur naturally on Earth, meaning that it is not produced naturally on Earth. However, it can be formed in nuclear reactors.
For your second question, Curium has been used to provide power to electrical equipment used on space missions, but doesn't seem to be that important overall.
Explanation:
Hope this helped!
Answer:
a. Minimum 1.70 V
b. There is no maximum.
Explanation:
We can solve this question by remembering that the cell potential is given by the formula
ε⁰ cell = ε⁰ reduction - ε⁰ oxidation
Now the problem states the cell must provide at least 0.9 V and that the reduction potential of the oxidized species 0.80 V, thus
ε⁰ reduction - ε⁰ oxidation ≥ ε⁰ cell
Since ε⁰ oxidation is by definition the negative of ε⁰ reduction , we have
ε⁰ reduction - ( 0.80 V ) ≥ 0.90 V
⇒ ε⁰ reduction ≥ 1.70 V
Therefore,
(a) The minimum standard reduction potential is 1.70 V
(b) There is no maximum standard reduction potential since it is stated in the question that we want to have a cell that provides at leat 0.9 V
Answer:
partial pressure of gas D Pd = 15.5 kPa
Explanation:
As per the Dalton's law of partial pressure, in a mixture, pressure exerted by each gas when summed gives the total partial pressure exerted by mixture.
P(Total) = P1+P2+P3.....
Given P(Total) = 35.7 kPa
Partial pressure of gas A Pa = 7.8 kPa
Partial pressure of gas B Pb = 3.7 kPa
Partial pressure of gas C Pc = 8.7 kPa
There, Partial pressure of gas D Pd = P(Total) -(Pa+Pb+Pc)
Pd = 35.7-(7.8+3.7+8.7) = 35.7-20.2 kPa = 15.5 kPa
Therefore, partial pressure of gas D Pd = 15.5 kPa
not sure but h = hydrogen and o = oxygen
