Why do automobiles rust more easily in wet climates than drier climates

1 answer:

6 0

It rusts more in wet climates because it is water and when water hits the automobile there is a chemical reaction. If the water is salt water it will cause it to rust quicker.

Iodine monochloride (ICl) has a higher boiling point than bromine (Br2) partly because iodine monochloride is a(n)

tekilochka [14]

Answer: polar molecule.

Explanation:

The boiling point is the temperature at which the vapor pressure of a liquid equals the external pressure surrounding the liquid. The boiling point is dependent on the type of forces present.

Iodine monochloride (ICl) is a polar molecule due to the difference in electronegativities of iodine and chlorine. Thus the molecules are bonded by strong dipole dipole forces. Thus a higher temperature is needed to generate enough vapor pressure.

Bromine $(Br_2)$ is a non polar molecule as there is no electronegativity difference between two bromine atoms. The molecules are bonded by weak vanderwaal forces and thus has low boiling point.

A mouse is placed in a sealed chamber with air at 769.0 torr. This chamber is equipped with enough solid KOH to absorb any CO2 a

svlad2 [7]

Answer: The amount of oxygen gas consumed by mouse is 0.202 grams.

Explanation:

We are given:

Initial pressure of air = 769.0 torr

Final pressure of air = 717.1 torr

Pressure of oxygen = Pressure decreased = Initial pressure - Final pressure = (769.0 - 717.1) torr = 51.9 torr

To calculate the amount of oxygen gas consumed, we use the equation given by ideal gas which follows:

$PV=nRT$

where,

P = pressure of the gas = 51.9 torr

V = Volume of the gas = 2.20 L

T = Temperature of the gas = 292 K

R = Gas constant = $62.364\text{ L. Torr }mol^{-1}K^{-1}$

n = number of moles of oxygen gas = ?

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$51.9torr\times 2.20L=n\times 62.364\text{ L. Torr }mol^{-1}K^{-1}\times 292K\\\\n=\frac{51.9\times 2.20}{62.364\times 292}=0.0063mol$

To calculate the mass from given number of moles, we use the equation:

$\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}$

Moles of oxygen gas = 0.0063 moles

Molar mass of oxygen gas = 32 g/mol

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$0.0063mol=\frac{\text{Mass of oxygen gas}}{32g/mol}\\\\\text{Mass of oxygen gas}=(0.0063mol\times 32g/mol)=0.202g$

Hence, the amount of oxygen gas consumed by mouse is 0.202 grams.

goldenfox [79]

In the first 85.0 s of this reaction, the concentration of no dropped from 1.12 m to 0.520 m .

What is rate of a reaction?

The speed at which a chemical reaction takes place is the rate of the reaction. It is the concentration change per unit time of a reactant in a reaction.

Since the concentration of NO reduces to half its initial concentration in 85 seconds that is from 1.12m to 0.520m, it can be said that 85 seconds is the half life interval for the reaction, Hence on average, half reaction is completed in the time interval of 85 seconds.
