Answer:

The liquid boils.

Explanation:

Vapor pressure is simply defined as the pressure exerted on a substance (solid/liquid) by the vapor of the substance collected just at the top of the surface of the substance. In concise words, it is the pressure of Vapor that is in contact with its solid or liquid state.

For a liquid, it is the pressure of the Vapor gathering at the top of the surface of the liquid.

When this Vapor pressure matches the external pressure, the temperature stays constant and the molecules of the liquid all through the liquid can gain enough energy, rise to the surface of the liquid and break free in gaseous form; thereby, boiling.

The definition of boiling point basically explains that it is the point at which temperature stays constant, and the vapour pressure of the liquid matches the atmospheric/external pressure around the liquid and its liquid molecules change into vapor.

This is why liquids boil faster at higher altitudes; the atmospheric pressure at higher altitudes is reduced, hence, the temperature at which liquid boils at this high altitude is normally lower than its known boiling point temperature.

It is also why food cooks to a temperature higher than the boiling point of water in a pressure cooker/pot. The added pressure ensures that the cooking water boils at temperatures higher than its boiling point; thereby exposing the cooking ingredients to a higher temperature, leading to faster cooking.

Hence, it is obvious why boiling is the answer to this question.

In your own words, describe in as much detail as possible, what is air made of.
Advocard [28]

Answer:

nitrogen, oxygen, argon, carbon dioxide, neon, helium, krypton, hydrogen, and xenon. It does not include water vapor because the amount of vapor changes based on humidity and temperature.

If a solution containing 51.429 g of mercury(ii) perchlorate is allowed to react completely with a solution containing 16.642 g
OLga [1]
Hg(No3)2  +NaSO4   --->2NaNO3  +  HgSO4(s)
calculate  the moles  of   each  reactant
moles=mass/molar  mass

moles of  Hg(NO3)2=  51.429g/  324.6  g/mol(molar  mass  of  Hg(NO3)2)=0.158  moles

moles Na2SO4  16.642g/142g/mol=  0.117  moles  of  Na2SO4

Na2SO4  is  the  limiting  reagent in  the   equation   and  by  use  mole  ratio  Na2So4  to  HgSO4  is  1:1   therefore  the  moles  of  HgSO4  =0.117  moles

mass  of  HgSO4=moles  x  molar   mass  of  HgSo4=  0.117 g x  303.6g/mol=  35.5212  grams

Which three temperature readings all mean the same thing?
allochka39001 [22]

Answer: The correct answer is D. 273 Kelvin, 0 degrees Celsius, 32 degrees Fahrenheit.

Explanation:

Conversion of degree Celsius to Kelvin :

K=^oC+273

Conversion of degree Celsius to degrees Fahrenheit :

^oF=(\frac{9}{5}\times ^oC)+32

By using these two conversion factors, we get the three temperature readings all mean the same thing.

For option A :

K=^oC+273=100+273=373K

^oF=(\frac{9}{5}\times ^oC)+32=(\frac{9}{5}\times 100)+32=212^oF

For option B :

K=^oC+273=100+273=373K

^oF=(\frac{9}{5}\times ^oC)+32=(\frac{9}{5}\times 100)+32=212^oF

For option C :

K=^oC+273=0+273=273K

^oF=(\frac{9}{5}\times ^oC)+32=(\frac{9}{5}\times 0)+32=32^oF

For option D :

K=^oC+273=0+273=273K

^oF=(\frac{9}{5}\times ^oC)+32=(\frac{9}{5}\times 0)+32=32^oF

From the given options, only option (D) is correct.

Hence, the correct option is, (D) 273 Kelvin, 0 degrees Celsius, 32 degrees Fahrenheit

Hope this helps!

Witch two chemists organized the elements based on properties suck as how the elements reacts or whether they are solid or liqui
Korvikt [17]

Answer:

Antoine Lavoisier and Johann Wolfang Döbereiner organized the elements based on properties such as how the elements reacts or whether they are solid or liquid.

Explanation:

The periodic table of the elements as we have it today was developed as a result of the work of several notable centuries who lived centuries apart, all of who made notable contributions to development of the modern periodic table in use today.

In 1789, Antoine Lavoisier, a French Chemist provided a definition of elemets which he defined as a substance whose smallest units cannot be broken down into a simpler substance. He further grouped the elements into two as metals and nonmetals.

In 1829, German physicist Johann Wolfang Döbereiner arranged elements in groups of three in increasing order of atomic weight and called them triads. His arrangement owasf elements into triads was based on his observation of similarities in physical and chemical properties of certain elements.

John Newlands, a British Chemist was the first to arrange the elements into a periodic table with increasing order of atomic masses.

In 1869, Russian chemist Dmitri Mendeleev developed a periodic table which provided a framework the modern periodic table. He arranged the elements according to their atomic weight, leaving gaps for elements that were yet to be discovered.

The modern periodic table arranges elements based on increasing atomic number.
