To solve this problem, we must assume ideal gas behaviour so that we can use Graham’s law:

vA / vB = sqrt (MW_B / MW_A)

where,

<span>vA = speed of diffusion of A  (HBR)</span>

vB = speed of diffusion of B (unknown)

MW_B = molecular weight of B (unkown)

MW_A = molar weight of HBr = 80.91 amu

 

We know from the given that:

vA / vB = 1 / 1.49

 

So,

1/1.49 = sqrt (MW_B / 80.91)

MW_B = 36.44 g/mol

 

Since this unknown is also hydrogen halide, therefore this must be in the form of HX.

HX = 36.44 g/mol , therefore:

x = 35.44 g/mol

 

From the Periodic Table, Chlorine (Cl) has a molar mass of 35.44 g/mol. Therefore the hydrogen halide is:

HCl

Which describes an effect that ocean currents have on short-term climate change? Ocean currents increase the strength of prevail
Luba_88 [7]

Answer:

All the option are correct

Explanation:

The ocean currents have been associated with past climatic shifts during critical periods (for example, the ice ages), where modifications in water circulation might have caused important climatic changes.

From a biological point of view, the ocean currents may be associated not only with the climate but also biogeochemical cycles through modifications in the distribution of heat and freshwater. Thus, the changes in ocean circulation may produce biogeographical shifts by affecting the local climate. The importance of ocean currents in affecting biodiversity is also represented by the equilibrium of coral reef ecosystems, where this equilibrium is broken up by factors such as transport of pollutants, temperature conditions, etc., which are known to alter thermosensitive coral species.

An animal cell has a 0.9% saline environment is placed into a solution that is 9% saline. What will happen to the cell
Softa [21]

The concentration of cell is less than that of the solution .

Hence the cell will be called as hypotonic and the solution will be called as hypertonic.

in order to balance the concentration on the two sides of cell (inside and outside in the solution) there will be movement of solvent particles (through semipermeable membrane ) from cell (lower concentration of solute) to solution (higher concentration of solute).

Thus cell will shrink.

If the pressure inside your ballon is 800mmHG ,and the gas is at body temperature,37 degree Celsius , calculate the number of gr
SpyIntel [72]
With all of the information given (pressure, volume, temperature, and the molar mass), we need a formula that relates this all together. The formula we need is the ideal gas law, PV=nRT. Since the pressure is defined in millimeters of mercury, we need the R value that correlates with this, which is 62.4; on top of this, we need the temperature in Kelvin - simply add 273.15 to convert from Celsius. With all of this information, simply plug-and-chug:

PV=nRT
(800)(3.7) = n(62.4)(37 + 273.15)
n = 0.1529 moles

Finally, the problem is asking the amount of air in grams. We have moles, so all we need to do is multiply that value by the molar mass.

0.1529 moles x 29 grams per mole =
4.435 grams of air

The balloon has 4.435 grams of air inside it.

Hope this helps!
