<span>esearchers in many countries were seeking innovative and cost-effective ways to synthesize steroids, including cortisone and the sex hormones. German chemists discovered that the steroid stigmasterol, which Julian had obtained as a by-product of the physostigmine synthesis but was also obtainable from soybeans, could be used in the synthesis of certain sex hormones, including progesterone</span>

Why does it take so much heat and pressure to create helium and other elements?
ehidna [41]

Answer:

To break down the nucleus of an atom

Explanation:

Remember to change from one element to another, is necessary to add protons, neutrons and electrons,in most of the cases.

The take an electron from an atom you need certain energy, but they are in the outside part of the atom so is not as much energy as the one is necessary to take one neutron or proton from the inside part of an atom.

In this way, is a must to have a combination of pressure and heat to destabilize an atom and take some of this subatomic particles.

The volume of a weather balloon is 200.0 L and its internal pressure is 1.17 atm when it is launched at 20 °C. The balloon rises
brilliants [131]

Answer:

2022 L

Explanation:

Ideal gas laws will work for gas in the balloon

The general gas law is for a gas at two arbitrary states 1 and 2 is given by

(P₁ V₁)/T₁ = (P₂ V₂)/T₂

P₁ = 1.17 atm

V₁ = 200.0 L

T₁ = 20°C = 293.15 K

P₂ = 63 mmHg = 0.0829 atm

V₂ = ?

T₂ = 210 K

(1.17 × 200)/293.15 = (0.0829 × V₂)/210

V₂ = (210 × 1.17 × 200)/(293.15 × 0.0829)

V₂ = 2022 L

How many moles of water are there in 1.000 l at stp? assume the density of water is 1000 kg/m3?
EastWind [94]
Assume 1 liter = 1 kilogram of water = 1000 grams of water.

Part A)
MW of hydrogen is 1.008g/mol, and oxygen is 16.00g/mol.

Find the MW of water by
2*(1.008) + (16.00) = 18.016g/mol.

Convert 1000g H2O to moles :

(1000g H2O)*(1mol H2O / 18.016g H2O) = 55.51 mol

Part B)
Using the answer from part A and Avogadro's number:

(55.51mol)*(6.022*10^23) =

3.343*10^25 molecules.
