Most cars need tires filled to 32.0 - 35.0 psi. Your tires are filled to 32.1 psi at the beginning of the month where the temper

ature is on average 12.5 degree C. At the end of the mounth the average temperture has dropped to -3.1 C. Are the tires still safe to drive on?

Answer: No it is not safe to drive on.

Explanation:

To calculate the final pressure of the system, we use the equation given by Gay-Lussac Law. This law states that pressure of the gas is directly proportional to the temperature of the gas at constant pressure.

Mathematically,

\frac{P_1}{T_1}=\frac{P_2}{T_2}

where,

P_1\text{ and }T_1 are the initial pressure and temperature of the gas.

P_2\text{ and }T_2 are the final pressure and temperature of the gas.

We are given:

P_1=32.1psi\\T_1=12.5^0C=(273+12.5)K=285.5K\\P_2=?psi=27.5psi\\T_2=-3.1^0C=(273-3.1)K=269.9K

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\frac{32.1}{285.5K}=\frac{P_2}{269.9}\\\\P_2=30.3psi

As the pressure lies below the recommended range of 32.0-35.0 psi. Thus it is not safe to drive on

Fe(NO3)2 not sure how to get the oxidation numbers of all elements
Elis [28]
Here are some rules:
1. The oxidation state of a free element (uncombined element) is zero.2. For a simple (monatomic) ion, the oxidation state is equal to the net charge on the ion.3. Hydrogen has an oxidation state of +1 and oxygen has an oxidation state of −2 when they are present in most compounds.

The oxidation number of Fe in  Fe(NO3)2 is +3.

What is the symbol (including the atomic number, mass number, and element symbol) for the nitrogen isotope with 8 neutrons? Expr
Doss [256]

Answer: The isotope is represented as _7^{15}\textrm{N}

Explanation:

General representation of an element is given as:_Z^A\textrm{X}

where,

Z represents Atomic number

A represents Mass number

X represents the symbol of an element

Atomic number is defined as the number of protons or number of electrons that are present in an atom.

Atomic number = Number of electrons = Number of protons  = 7 (for nitrogen)

Mass number is defined as the sum of number of protons and neutrons that are present in an atom.

Mass number = Number of protons + Number of neutrons = 7+8 = 15

Thus the isotope is represented as _7^{15}\textrm{N}
