Why is the pressure 101.3kPa significant

Chemistry
1 answer:
nydimaria [60]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Explanation:

The kPa-kilopascal is the unit of pressure. It was named after Blaise Pascal, a mathematician and physicist.

The kPa is 1000Pa. Kilo stands for 1000. Now what is a pascal?

A pascal is the amount of force(Newton) exerted per unit area.

            1Pa = 1Nm⁻²

At the standard atmospheric level, the pressure is 101.325 x 10³ Nm⁻² i.e the atmosphere exerts a pressure of 101.325 x 10³N in an area of a body.

This unit is used to calculate pressure. It can be converted to other units.

a binary mixture is to be fed a continuous distillation column. calculate the minimum number of trays required to achieve a sepa
Taya2010 [7]

Answer:

minimum number of trays:

N = 7 trays

Explanation:

minimum number (N):

  • N = ( Log ( (Xd / ( 1 - Xd ))  * (( 1 - Xb ) / Xb )) ) / Log α....Fenske's Eq. binary mixture

∴ α = 2.5

∴ Xd = 0.96.......molar fraction the distillate

∴ Xb = 0.04 .........molar fraction in the bottoms

⇒ N = ( Log  ( ( 0.96 / ( 1 - 0.96 ) ) * ( ( 1 - 0.04 ) / 0.04 )) ) / Log ( 2.5 )

⇒ N = 6.94 ≅ 7 trays

The half life of tritium is 12.3 years. How much sample will remain if you start with 425g of tritium that is found after 4 half
natta225 [31]

Answer:

26.56g

Explanation:

The half life of an isotope decay is the time transcurred when the initial amount of the isotope decays to the half of its amount.

For the problem, when 1 half life transcur, the sample has a mass of:

425g / 2 = 212.5g

When 2 half lives transcur:

212.5g / 2 = 106.25g

3 half lives:

106.25/2 = 53.13g

And the amount that is found after 4 half lives is:

53.13/2 =

<h3>26.56g</h3>

Which compound is an unsaturated hydrocarbon
MariettaO [177]
Unsaturated hydrocarbons are those in which each carbon atom is attached to as many hydrogen atoms as it possibly can. There can be no double bonds or non-hydrogen functional groups, since these detract from the maximum possible number of hydrogens that each carbon can be attached to (in the case of double bonds, two carbons are bonded to each other when they could alternately be bonded to one more hydrogen each). All of the alkanes (including the cycloalkanes) are saturated hydrocarbons. Substituted alkanes, alkenes, alkynes, and their cyclic counterparts are all unsaturated.

A 825 g iron block is heated to 352 degrees C and is placed in an insulated container (of negligible heat capacity) containing 4
Stella [2.4K]

Answer : The final equilibrium temperature of the water and iron is, 537.12 K

Explanation :

In this problem we assumed that heat given by the hot body is equal to the heat taken by the cold body.

q_1=-q_2

m_1\times c_1\times (T_f-T_1)=-m_2\times c_2\times (T_f-T_2)

where,

c_1 = specific heat of iron =  560 J/(kg.K)

c_1 = specific heat of water = 4186 J/(kg.K)

m_1 = mass of iron = 825 g

m_2 = mass of water = 40 g

T_f = final temperature of water and iron = ?

T_1 = initial temperature of iron = 352^oC=273+352=625K

T_2 = initial temperature of water = 20^oC=273+20=293K

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get:

(825\times 10^{-3}kg)\times 560J/(kg.K)\times (T_f-625K)=-(40\times 10^{-3}kg)\times 4186J/(kg.K)\times (T_f-293K)

T_f=537.12K

Therefore, the final equilibrium temperature of the water and iron is, 537.12 K
