A scientist is studying a shock wave from an earthquake. What kind of wave is being studying?
Naily [24]

Answer:

A scientist is studying a shock wave from an earthquake, he is studying mechanical wave.

Explanation:

The shock waves are experienced during earthquake. At the area of increased pressure shock wave are created as the object in that places moves faster as compared to the speed of sound. Shock wave are type of mechanical wave. For its transfer it requires a medium. An electromagnetic wave can travel of its own without any medium, under electromagnetic wave gamma ray and radio wave comes. they are transverse wave.

The vapor pressure of methanol is 143 mmhg. identify the best reason to explain why methanol spontaneously evaporates in open ai
goldfiish [28.3K]

Answer/Explanation:

Methanol has a molecular weight (32.04 g/mol), low-boiling point and because of its low boiling point, methanol readily evaporates at room temperature.

Under these specified non-standard conditions, the partial pressure of methanol is lower than its vapor pressure and this explains the reason for the spontaneous evaporation exhibited by methanol.

In a separate experiment beginning from the same initial conditions, including a temperature Ti of 25.0°C, half the number of mo
NNADVOKAT [17]

Answer:

- 178 ºC

Explanation:

The  ideal gas law   states that :

PV = nRT,

where P is the pressure, V is the volume, n is number of moles , R is the gas constant and T is the absolute temperature.

For the initial conditions :

P₁ V₁ = n₁ R T₁    (1)

and for the final conditions:

P₂V₂= n₂ R T₂    where   n₂ = n₁/2     then    P₂ V₂ = n₁/2 T₂    (2)

Assuming V₂ = V₁ and  dividing (2) by Eqn (1) :

P₂ V₂ = n₁/2 R T₂  / ( n₁ R T₁)      then  P₂ / P₁ = 1/2 T₂ / T₁

4.10 atm / 25.7 atm = 1/2 T₂ / 298 K ⇒ T₂ = 0.16 x 298 x 2 = 95.1 K

T₂ = 95 - 273 = - 178 º C

Using the equation below, if you have 4.3 mol of nitrogen tribromide and
ankoles [38]

Answer:

sodium hydroxide is the limiting reactant

Explanation:

The first step is usually to put down the balanced reaction equation. This is the first thing to do when solving any problem related to stoichiometry. The balanced reaction equation serves as a guide during the solution.

2NBr3 + 3NaOH = N2 + 3NaBr + 3HOBr

Let us pick nitrogen gas as our product of interest. Any of the reactants that gives a lower number of moles of nitrogen gas is the limiting reactant.

For nitrogen tribromide

From the balanced reaction equation;

2 moles of nitrogen tribromide yields 1 mole of nitrogen gas

4.3 moles of nitrogen tribromide will yield 4.3 ×1/ 2 = 2.15 moles of nitrogen gas

For sodium hydroxide;

3 moles of sodium hydroxide yields 1 mole of nitrogen gas

5.9 moles of sodium hydroxide yields 5.9 × 1/ 3= 1.97 moles of nitrogen gas

Therefore, sodium hydroxide is the limiting reactant.
