Give an example of how plants compete with each other.
ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer:

Just as humans and animals compete to win a prize or gain an advantage, there is also competition among plants. This competition is both among its own species, as well as against other types of plants and even animals. Plants seek the rewards of nutrients, water, sunlight, and territory necessary for survival.

A truck tire has a volume of 218 L and is filled with air to 35.0 psi at 295 K. After a drive, the air heats up to 318 K. (b) If
Alenkasestr [34]

The pressure (in psi) is 37.1

We are given the following information:

- The initial temperature of the air, $T_{1}=295 \mathrm{~K}$

- The initial pressure, $P_{1}=35.0 \mathrm{psi}$.

- The initial volume, $V_{1}=208 \mathrm{~L}$

- The final temperature, $T_{2}=319 \mathrm{~K}$

- The increase in the volume is $2 \%$, that is, $\Delta V=\frac{2}{100} V_{1}$ where $\Delta V$is the increase in the volume.

The combined gas law states that a fixed amount of an ideal gas obeys the following equation: $\frac{P V}{T}=$ constant, where:

- P is the Pressure of the gas.

- V is the Volume of the gas.

- n is the number of moles of gas.

$R=8.31 \mathrm{~J} / \mathrm{mol} \mathrm{K}=0.0821 \mathrm{~L} \cdot {atm} / \mathrm{mol} \cdot \mathrm{K}$ is the Universal Gas constant.

- T is the absolute temperature of the gas.

The final volume of the air is:

$$\begin{aligned}V_{2} &=V_{1}+\Delta V \\&=V_{1}+\frac{2}{100} V_{1} \\&=\frac{102}{100} V_{1}\end{aligned}$$

Equating the initial and final state, we have:

$$\begin{aligned}\frac{P_{2} V_{2}}{T_{2}} &=\frac{P_{1} V_{1}}{T_{1}} \\\Rightarrow P_{2} &=\frac{V_{1}}{V_{2}} \times \frac{T_{2}}{T_{1}} \times P_{1} \\&=\frac{V_{1}}{102 V_{1} / 100} \times \frac{319 \mathrm{~K}}{295 \mathrm{~K}} \times 35.0 \mathrm{psi} \\& \approx 37.1 \mathrm{psi}\end{aligned}$$

The ideal gas law states that a universal constant for an ideal gas is the ratio of the product of pressure and temperature to the product of the number of moles and absolute temperature. The resultant equation is known as the combined gas law if the number of moles in the ideal gas law is set to a constant.

Two voltaic cells are to be joined so that one will run the other as an electrolytic cell. In the first cell, one half-cell has
vladimir1956 [14]

Au/Cr cell will run as a voltaic cell and Co/Zn cell will run as an electrolytic cell.

<h3>What is an electrolytic cell?</h3>

An electrolytic cell that uses electrical energy to enable a non-spontaneous redox reaction is known as an electrolytic cell.

Certain chemicals can be electrolyzed using electrolytic cells, which are electrochemical cells.

For example, water can be electrolyzed to create gaseous oxygen and gaseous hydrogen with the use of an electrolytic cell.

The following are the three essential parts of electrolytic cells:

Cathode (which is negatively charged for electrolytic cells)

Anode (which is positively charged for electrolytic cells)

Electrolyte

The reactions for each half cell is given by

Au^{3+}(aq) + 3e^- \rightleftharpoons Au(s) ; E° = 1.50 V

Cr^{3+}(aq) + 3e^- \rightleftharpoons Cr(s) ; E° = –0.74 V

Co^{2+}(aq) + 2e^- \rightleftharpoons Co(s) ; E° = –0.28 V

Zn^{2+}(aq) + 2e^- \rightleftharpoons Zn(s) ; E° = –0.76 V

When the Au/Cr cell will run as a voltaic cell and Co/Zn cell will run as an electrolytic cell, the a difference in the voltages is produced

E^o_{series} = E^o_{Au/Cr} - E^o_{Co/Zn}  = 2.24 V – 0.48 V = 1.76 V
