A substance has a sea level boiling point of 78°C. You take the substance about 3,000 meters up a mountain and heat it in a pot.

What would be the most likely boiling point for this substance at that elevation: 68°C, 78°C, 95°C, or 100°C? Explain.

Answer:

68 °C.

Explanation:

Hello.

In this case, since the relationship between the altitude and the boiling point is inversely proportional due to fact that the higher the altitude the lower the atmospheric pressure and therefore the lower the boiling point (temperature) and the lower the altitude the higher the atmospheric pressure and therefore the higher the boiling point. This is supported by the fact that at lower atmospheric pressures, more liquid molecules are likely to become gas since a weaker force is holding them together in liquid state and the other way around.

Therefore, the most likely boiling point at 3,000 m up a mountain will be below 78 °C, it means 68 °C.

Best regards.

How many atoms of N are in 137.0 grams of N2O3?
valina [46]

Answer:

1.085 x 10²⁴

Explanation:

The answer is not in your choices, but it maybe due to a typo but to get the answer to this, you just need to convert the grams to moles, then moles to atoms.

First we get the mass of the molecule for every mole. Get the atomic mass of each element and multiply it by the number of atoms present then get their total.

N₂O₃

Element       number of atoms        Atomic mass       TOTAL

    N                          2                x          14.007            28.014

    O                          3                x          15.999           <u>47.997</u>

                                                                                      76.011 g/mole

So now we know for every 1 mole of N₂O₃ there are 76.011 g of N₂O₃.

Next we need to see how many moles of N₂O₃ are there in 137.0g of N₂O₃.

137.0g\times\dfrac{1mole}{76.011g}=1.802moles

Now we know that we have 1.802moles of N₂O₃.

We use Avogadro's constant to find out how many atoms there are. Avogadro's constant states that for every mole of any substance, there are 6.022140857 × 10²³ atoms.

1.802moles\times\dfrac{6.022140857\times10^{23}atoms}{1 mole}=1.085\times10^{24}atoms

For metallic structures, does the packing efficiency (see sample exercise 12.1 in textbook) increase or decrease as the number o
qaws [65]
Metallic solids or metallic structures experience metallic bonds which are the forces of attractions between the sea of electrons and the nucleus of the metallic atoms. They share a network of highly delocalized electrons.
I therefore think that the packing efficiency decreases as the number of nearest neighbors decreases.
