A geochemist measures the concentration of salt dissolved in Lake Parsons, an isolated salt lake. He finds a concentration of 21

.·gL−1. The geochemist also measures the concentration of salt in several nearby non-isolated lakes, and finds an average concentration of 6.67·gL−1. Assuming the salt concentration in Lake Parsons before it became isolated was equal to the average salt concentration in nearby non-isolated lakes, calculate the percentage of Lake Parsons which has evaporated since it became isolated.

Answer:

68,2%

Explanation:

Supposing the initial salt concentration of lake Parsons is the same of non-isolated lakes, 6,67L, and the change of salt concentration in isolated lake is just for water evaporation it is possible to write:

6,67gL⁻¹×X = 21gL⁻¹×Y

<em>-Where X is the initial water and Y is the water that remains in the isolated lake-</em>

Thus:

6,67X = 21Y

0,318 = Y/X

0,318 is the ratio of water that remains between total water. To obtain the ratio of evaporated water:

1-0,318 = 0,682

In percentage: <em>68,2%</em>

Explain how matter changes from one state to another such as liquid
beks73 [17]

Answer:

When heated or cooled, matter can transform from one state to another. When you heat ice (a solid), it turns into water (a liquid). MELTING is the term for this transformation. When water is heated, it becomes steam (a gas).

If I initially have a gas at a pressure of 12 atm, volume of 23 liters, and temperature of 200 K, and then I raise the pressure
CaHeK987 [17]

Answer : The volume of gas will be 29.6 L

Explanation:

Combined gas law is the combination of Boyle's law, Charles's law and Gay-Lussac's law.

The combined gas equation is,

\frac{P_1V_1}{T_1}=\frac{P_2V_2}{T_2}

where,

P_1 = initial pressure of gas = 12 atm

P_2 = final pressure of gas = 14 atm

V_1 = initial volume of gas = 23 L

V_2 = final volume of gas = ?

T_1 = initial temperature of gas = 200K

T_2 = final temperature of gas = 300K

Now put all the given values in the above equation, we get the final pressure of gas.

\frac{12atm\times 23L}{200K}=\frac{14\times V_2}{300K}

V_2=29.6L

Therefore, the new volume of gas will be 29.6 L
