Answer:

The initial volume of the chlorine gas V1=733.28mL

Explanation:

Given:

P1= 686mmHg

P2= 991mmHg

V2= 5076mL

V1=?

According to Boyle's law which states that at a constant temperature, the pressure on a gas increases as it's volume decreases.

It can be expressed as : P1V1 = P2V2

Where P1 is the initial pressure

P2= final pressure

V1= initial volume

V2 = final volume

V1= (P2V2)/P1

V1= (991mmHg*507.6mL)/686mmHg

V1=503031.6/686

V1=733.28mL

Therefore, The initial volume of the chlorine gas V1=733.28mL

How many atoms are in 13.97 liters of water vapor at STP
Arisa [49]
<span>Let's </span>assume that water vapor has ideal gas behavior. <span>
Then we can use ideal gas formula,
PV = nRT<span>

</span><span>Where, P is the pressure of the gas (Pa), V is the volume of the gas (m³), n is the number of moles of gas (mol), R is the universal gas constant ( 8.314 J mol</span></span>⁻¹ K⁻¹) and T is temperature in Kelvin.<span>
<span>
</span>P = 1 atm = 101325 Pa (standard pressure)
V = 13.97 L = 13.97 x 10</span>⁻³ m³<span>
n = ?
R = 8.314 J mol</span>⁻¹ K⁻¹<span>
T = 0 °C = 273 K (standard temperature)
<span>
By substitution,
</span>101325 Pa x 13.97x 10</span>⁻³ m³ = n x 8.314 J mol⁻¹ K⁻¹ x 273 K<span>
                                          n = 0.624 mol
<span>
Hence, the moles of water vapor at STP is 0.624 mol.

According to the </span></span>Avogadro's constant, 1 mole of substance has 6.022 × 10²³ particles.
<span>
Hence, number of atoms in water vapor = 0.624 mol x </span>6.022 × 10²³ mol⁻¹
<span>                                                                = 3.758 x 10</span>²³<span>

Why must the spot applied to a TLC plate be above the level of the developing solvent? What problem will ensue if the level of t
algol13

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

If the spot in TLC is below the solvent front, it will be observed that the spot, instead of being separated by the solvent as expected, will just dissolve away in the solvent and zero actual separation of the mixture is achieved.

If the solute is dissolved away instead of being separated by the solvent, then the experiment fails because no actual separation of the mixture is achieved.

Hence, in TLC, the spot must be applied above the solvent front so that the capillary movement of the solvent through the plate can lead to the eventual separation of the components of the mixture since the various components of the mixture will travel at different speeds through the plate.

Also, if the solvent is above the spot, the solvent may evaporate selectively from the points above the spot while separation is ongoing.

What is the process called to prepare a ceramic by heating a slurry of a powder of an inorganic substance in water to a very hig
Zolol [24]

<u>Answer:</u> The process that is used to prepare ceramic is sintering.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Sintering is defined as the process in which number of particles are fused together to form one solid mass by the applying pressure at high temperatures.

Ceramic is an material that is made by taking mixtures of clay, earthen elements, powders and water.

When this mixture (slurry of the powders) is heated at a very high temperature and under high pressure, ceramic is formed.

Hence, the process that is used to prepare ceramic is sintering.
