1. Why is it necessary to equalize the pressure(i.e, have the water level the same in each tube) before taking a volume reading?
Anna11 [10]

Answer:

If you contact water with a gas at a certain temperature and (partial) pressure, the concentration of the gas in the water will reach an equilibrium ('saturation') according to Henry's law.

Explanation:

This means: if you increase the pressure (e.g. by keeping the vial closed), the CO2 concentration will increase. So it simply depends what concentration you need for your assay: 'CO2-saturated' water at low pressure or 'CO2-saturated' water at high pressure.

Why are some substances not able to dissolve in water?
Gemiola [76]
<span>Water is a polar molecule. If a solute dissolved in water is polar molecule, it will dissolve in water. If a solute dissolved in water is non-polar like oil it will not dissolve in water. Polar dissolves in polar.</span>

If 24.6 grams of lithium react with excess water, how many liters of hydrogen gas can be produced at 301 Kelvin and 1.01 atmosph
andreev551 [17]
Answer: 43.3 l


Explanation:

1) Chemical equation:
2 Li(s) + 2 H₂O (l) → 2LiOH(aq) + H₂ (g)

2) Mole ratios:

2 mol Li : 2 mol H₂O : 2 mol LiOH : 1 mol H₂

3) Number of moles of Li that react

n = mass in grams / atomic mass = 24.6g / 6.941 g/mol = 3.54 moles

4) Yield

Proportion:

2 mol Li / 1 mol H₂ = 3.54 mol  Li/ x


⇒ x = 3.54 mol Li × 1 mol H / 2 mol Li = 1.77 mol H₂

4) Ideal gas equation

PV = nRT ⇒ V = nRT / P

V = 1.77 mol × 0.0821 [atm×l / (mol×K)] × 301 K / 1.01 atm = 43.3 l


V = 43.3 l ← answer

Metamorphic rock is formed from the weathering, erosion and cementing of sediments.
Alex Ar [27]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

Metamorphic rocks form when rocks are subjected to high heat, high pressure, hot mineral-rich fluids or, more commonly, some combination of these factors.

This question is reffering to sedimentary rocks, so it's false.
