sladkih [1.3K]

The correct answer from the choices given is the last option. The can from the car will lose the carbon more quickly because there are fewer solute–solvent collisions. The can in the car has a lower temperature than the one in the refrigerator. At low temperature, the solubility of carbon dioxide in the liquid decrease therefore particles would tend to be in the vapor phase and escape from the liquid.

You're at the zoo and have a big red 1.80 L helium balloon. The barometric pressure today is 785 mmHg. Then you hear the roar of

fomenos

Answer: The volume of the balloon up there is 6.192 L.

Explanation:

Given: $V_{1}$ = 1.80 L, $P_{1}$ = 785 mm Hg (mm Hg = 0.00131579) = 1.032 atm

$P_{2}$ = 0.300 atm, $V_{2}$ = ?

Formula used to calculate volume is as follows.

$P_{1}V_{1} = P_{2}V_{2}$

Substitute the value into above formula as follows.

$P_{1}V_{1} = P_{2}V_{2}\\1.032 atm \times 1.80 L = 0.300 atm \times V_{2}\\V_{2} = 6.192 L$

Thus, we can conclude that the volume of the balloon up there is 6.192 L.

UNO [17]

Answer:

B) All carbon atoms have 6 neutrons.

Explanation:

The false statement from the given choices is that all carbon atoms have 6 neutrons.

There is a phenomenon called isotopy in chemistry.

Isotopy is the existence of two or more atoms of the same element having the same atomic number but different mass numbers due to the differences in the number of neutrons in their various nuclei.

These atoms of elements are called isotopes.
Carbon atoms generally have proton number of 6 which is the same as the atomic number.
As with all atoms, the mass number or atomic mass equals the number of protons and neutrons.

For the isotopes of carbon, their number of neutrons differs.

For example:

¹²₆C ¹³₆C ¹⁴₆C

The number of neutrons differs in the above isotopes.

Number of neutrons = mass number - atomic number;

¹²₆C , number of neutrons = 12 - 6 = 6

¹³₆C, number of neutrons = 13 - 6 = 7

¹⁴₆C, number of neutrons = 14 - 6 = 8

Therefore, based on the concept of isotopy, all carbon atoms do not have 6 neutrons.

Urea (CH4N2O) is a common fertilizer that can be synthesized by the reaction of ammonia (NH3) with carbon dioxide as follows: 2N

Montano1993 [528]

The question is incomplete, here is the complete question:

Urea (CH₄N₂O) is a common fertilizer that can be synthesized by the reaction of ammonia (NH₃) with carbon dioxide as follows: 2NH₃(aq) + CO₂(aq) → CH₄N₂O(aq) + H₂O(l) In an industrial synthesis of urea, a chemist combines 135.9 kg of ammonia with 211.4 kg of carbon dioxide and obtains 178.0 kg of urea.

Determine the limiting reactant. (express your answer as a chemical formula)

Answer: The limiting reactant is ammonia $(NH_3)$
