Using the phase diagram for water, what phase is water at 0.01 degrees Celsius and 0.0060 atmospheres?

1 answer:

8 0

Answer: at 0.01 °C and 0.0060 atm the three phases (solid, liquid and gas)


Explanation:


1) Water at 0.0060 atm and 0.01° C is at its triple point.


2) The triple point is the point in the phase diagram at which the three physical states coexist: gas, liquid and solid.

3) That means that water can freeze and boil at the same time. In fact they can happen any of the six changes of phase: freezing (liquid to solid), melting (solid to liquid), evaporation (liquid to gas), condensation (gas to liquid), sublimation (solid to gas), and deposition (gas to solid).

The phase diagram is unique for any substance, meaning that it is different for different substances: the normal boiling and melting points are different.

A molecule in which the central atom forms three single bonds and has one lone pair is said to have a ________ shape.

nignag [31]

Answer : The correct option is, (c) pyramidal

Explanation :

As we are given that a molecule in which the central atom forms three single bonds and has one lone pair that means the central metal atom has 3 bond pairs and 1 lone pair of electrons.

There are total 4 electron pairs. So, the hybridization will be $sp^3$ and the electronic geometry of the molecule will be tetrahedral.

But as there are three atoms or bonds around the central atom and the fourth position occupied by lone pair of electrons. The repulsion between lone and bond pair of electrons is more and hence the molecular geometry will be pyramidal.

Hence, correct option is, (c) pyramidal

A student wants to make an electromagnet. Which items are needed?

bazaltina [42]

Answer:

copper wire, metal nail, battery

Explanation:

To create an electromagnet, the material to be magnetized (such as a metal nail) is placed inside a solenoid, the ends of the coils are connected to a circuit that includes a battery.

Current is allowed to flow for a few seconds and then cut off. The polarity of the magnet depends on the direction of flow of current in the solenoid.

Which represents the greatest time frame in which a short-term environmental change can occur?

Orlov [11]

Answer:

in days

Explanation:

A short term environmental change refers to changes in the environment that happens within a short period of time, for example, flooding, drought, volcanic eruptions etc. In contrast to short term environmental change, long term environmental change takes place over a long period of time hence species have a longer time to adapt to it. Short term environmental changes may or may not be caused by humans. An example of a short term environmental change caused by humans is oil spillage. Short term environmental changes may lead to the the migration of species from the ecosystem.

Short term environmental changes usually occur within a very short time. The greatest time frame in which a short term environmental change can occur is in a matter of days. Only longterm environmental changes span hundreds and thousands of years.
