Why does water flow decrease in your shower when someone flushes the toilet ​

The water from the toilet flush takes a lot of the water power out of the system which leads to a decrease in the flow of water to the shower. The water system is connected.

Answer:

A toilet requires a large amount of cold water to flush. So, when the toilet flushes while you're in the shower, it's stealing from your shower's cold water supply. When the pressure-balancing valve senses the drop in cold water pressure, it responds by restricting the hot water pressure.

1. What pressure would be exerted by 46.0grams of hydrogen gas placed into a 3.00 L container at
dlinn [17]

Answer:

187.34 atm

Explanation:

From the question,

PV = nRT.................. Equation 1

Where P = Pressure, V = Volume, n = number of mole, R = molar gas constant, T = Temperature.

make P the subject of the equation

P = nRT/V.............. Equation 2

n = mass(m)/molar mass(m')

n = m/m'............... Equation 3

Substitute equation 3 into equation 2

P = (m/m')RT/V............ Equation 4

Given: m = 46 g, T = 25°C = (25+273) = 298 K, V = 3.00 L

Constant: m' = 2 g/mol, R = 0.082 atmL/K.mol

Substitute these values into equation 4

P = (46/2)(0.082×298)/3

P = (23×0.082×298)/3

P = 187.34 atm

What is the percent yield of LiCl if I produced 30.85g LiCl and my theoretical yield was calculated to be 35.40g LiCl?
marissa [1.9K]

Answer:

87.15%

Explanation:

To find percent yield, we can use this simple equation

\frac{Actual}{Theoretical} *100

Where "Actual" is the amount in grams actually collected from the reaction, and "Theoretical" is, well, the theoretical amount that should have been produced.

They give us these values, so to find the percent yield, just plug the numbers in.

\frac{30.85}{35.40} *100\\\\ =87.15

So, the percent yield is 87.15%

An easy trick to remember how to do this is just to divide the smaller number by the bigger number and move the decimal back two places. If you have a percent yield greater than 100%, something is wrong in the reaction.

Identify and explain exothermic and endothermic reactions in terms of energy transfer
Ulleksa [173]
Exothermic reaction is when the system releases energy to the surrounding, the energy (in the perspective of the system) will have a sign of negative, as the system is transferring energy towards the surrounding.

Endothermic reaction is when the system is absorbing energy from the surrounding, the energy (in the perspective of the system) will have a sign of positive, as energy is transferred to the system.
