Calculate the final temperature of a sample of carbon dioxide of mass 16.0 g that is expanded reversibly and adiabatically from

500 cm3 at 298.15 K to 2.00 dm3. 1) If you want to calculate the work, dW=-pdV -> W = -nRTln(V2/V1). Is this expression ok for this problem? If yes, then what T should I use? 1) Why the Charles law V1/T1=V2/T2 does not hold? If you increase V you do work and so you expect to reduce U and therefore T. But according to charles law, in order to keep the proportion, if you increase V, you also increase T.

For your first question, that equation only works if your situation is occurring at a constant temperature. Your original question is such a situation - everything occurs at 298.15 K. Therefore, you can use this value in the equation to calculate work. For your second question, Charles' Law describes how the volume of gas changes as you heat or cool it, PROVIDED PRESSURE AND MOLES OF GAS REMAIN CONSTANT THE WHOLE TIME. In your original question above, temperature stays constant while volume changes. However, what they don't tell you is that this necessarily requires a change in either pressure or moles of gas. Because the question works with the same sample the of gas the whole time (i.e. moles are constant), it is pressure that is changing (and this change will occur according to Boyle's Law, since temperature and moles are held constant). Hope that clarifies things!

A sample of rubidium contains two different isotopes. 72.15% of the sample
Leona [35]

Answer:

Average atomic mass  = 85.557 amu.

Explanation:

Given data:

Percent abundance of Rb-85 = 72.15%

Percent abundance of Rb-87 = 27.85%

Average atomic mass = ?

Solution:

Average atomic mass = (abundance of 1st isotope × its atomic mass) +(abundance of 2nd isotope × its atomic mass)  / 100

Average atomic mass = (72.15×85)+(27.85×87) /100

Average atomic mass =  6132.75 + 2422.95 / 100

Average atomic mass = 8555.7 / 100

Average atomic mass  = 85.557 amu.

An increase in the ratio of insulin to glucagon will increase the activity of which of the following enzymes (+ indicates activi
AleksAgata [21]

Answer: An increase in the ratio of insulin to glucagon will increase the activity of --

- Acetyl-CoA carboxylase(+)

-Phosphofructokinase PFK2(+)

-Glycogen synthase(+)

- Hormone sensitive lipase (-). The hormone sensitive lipase activity is not increased with increased insulin activity.

Explanation: increased insulin - glucagon ratio is usually high in fed state.Insulin helps the cells absorb glucose, reducing blood sugar and providing the cells with glucose for energy. When blood sugar levels are too low, the pancreas releases glucagon. Glucagon instructs the liver to release stored glucose, which causes blood sugar to rise.

In a 71.4 g sample of nahco 3 3 ​ , how many grams of sodium are present?
sweet [91]

There are 19.5 g Na in 71.4 g NaHCO₃

Calculate the <em>molecular mass of NaHCO₃</em>.

1 Na = 1 × 22.99 u = 22.99   u

1 H   = 1 × 1.008 u =    1.008 u

1 C   = 1 × 12.01  u =  12.01    u

3 O = 3 × 16.00 u =  <u>48.00  u </u>

               TOTAL =  84.008 u

So, there are 22.99 g of Na in 84.008 g NaHCO₃.

∴ Mass of Na = 71.4 g NaHCO₃ × (22.99 g Na/84.008 g NaHCO₃) = 19.5 g Na
