Estimate the molar mass of a gas that effuses at 1.6 times the effusion rate of CO2

1 answer:

7 0

To estimate the molar mass of the gas, we use Graham's law of effusion. This relates the rates of effusion of gases with their molar mass. We calculate as follows:

r1/r2 = √(m2/m1)

where r1 would be the effusion rate of the gas and r2 is for CO2, M1 is the molar mass of the gas and M2 would be the molar mass of CO2 (44.01 g/mol)

r1 = 1.6r2

1.6 = √(44.01 / m1)
m1 = 17.19 g/mol

- Nitinol is an alloy of *

Aleks04 [339]

Answer:

Nickel and Titanium

Explanation:

Nitinol is an alloy of Nickel and Titanium. It posesses two properties such that,

The shape memory effect
Super elasticity

Shape memory is the ability of nitinol to undergo deformation at one temperature, stay in its deformed shape when the external force is removed.

Superelasticity is the ability for the metal to undergo large deformations and immediately return to its undeformed shape upon removal of the external load.

Hence, the correct option is (b) "Nickel and Titanium".

A student has four resistors. Each resistor has a resistance of 100 ohms.

ValentinkaMS [17]

Answer:

The minimum resistance is 25 ohms.

Explanation:

Resistance of each resistor is 100 ohms. When resistors are connected in parallel, the equivalent resistance is lowest. For parallel combination, the equivalent resistance is given by :

$\dfrac{1}{R}=\dfrac{1}{R_1}+\dfrac{1}{R_2}+....$
