Which of the following describes a unique property of water that helps sustain marine life?

Chemistry

LUCKY_DIMON [66]2 years ago
6 0

Answer:

B

Explanation:

Since ice is less dense than water, it floats. This forms an ice cover sheet in cold regions such as in the poles. This insulates the water beneath from excessive heat loss hence preventing it from turning into ice too, This protects the marine life beneath. Also, water does not gain heat or loss it rapidly (due to its high heat capacity) hence offering a more or stable temperature range for marine life.

Which is NOT part of the definition of matter
qaws [65]

Answer:

Everything that has mass and takes up space is matter. Every day, you find something usual that either does't have mass or else don't take up space. Those things are non-matter. Basically, any type of energy or any abstract concept is an example of something that does not have matter.

My professor gave me two questions to solve using the Van Der Waals Equation. She told us to solve for P and the second one we h
Fed [463]

Answer:

P=atm

b=\frac{L}{mol}

Explanation:

The problem give you the Van Der Waals equation:

(P+\frac{n^{2}a}{V^{2}})(V-nb)=nRT

First we are going to solve for P:

(P+\frac{n^{2}a}{V^{2}})=\frac{nRT}{(V-nb)}

P=\frac{nRT}{(V-nb)}-\frac{n^{2}a}{v^{2}}

Then you should know all the units of each term of the equation, that is:

P=atm

n=mol

R=\frac{L.atm}{mol.K}

a=atm\frac{L^{2}}{mol^{2}}

b=\frac{L}{mol}

T=K

V=L

where atm=atmosphere, L=litters, K=kelvin

Now, you should replace the units in the equation for each value:

P=\frac{(mol)(\frac{L.atm}{mol.K})(K)}{L-(mol)(\frac{L}{mol})}-\frac{(mol^{2})(\frac{atm.L^{2}}{mol^{2}})}{L^{2}}

Then you should multiply and eliminate the same units which they are dividing each other (Please see the photo below), so you have:

P=\frac{L.atm}{L-L}-atm

Then operate the fraction subtraction:

P=P=\frac{L.atm-L.atm}{L}

P=\frac{L.atm}{L}

And finally you can find the answer:

P=atm

Now solving for b:

(P+\frac{n^{2}a}{V^{2}})(V-nb)=nRT

(V-nb)=\frac{nRT}{(P+\frac{n^{2}a}{V^{2}})}

nb=V-\frac{nRT}{(P+\frac{n^{2}a}{V^{2}})}

b=\frac{V-\frac{nRT}{(P+\frac{n^{2}a}{V^{2}})}}{n}

Replacing units:

b=\frac{L-\frac{(mol).(\frac{L.atm}{mol.K}).K}{(atm+\frac{mol^{2}.\frac{atm.L^{2}}{mol^{2}}}{L^{2}})}}{mol}

Multiplying and dividing units,(please see the second photo below), we have:

b=\frac{L-\frac{L.atm}{atm}}{mol}

b=\frac{L-L}{mol}

b=\frac{L}{mol}
