Using the same sample of gas (P1 = 565 torr , T1 = 27 ∘C ), we wish to change the pressure to 5650 torr with no accompanying cha
Stels [109]

Answer:

2726.85 °C

Explanation:

Given data:

Initial pressure = 565 torr

Initial temperature = 27°C

Final temperature = ?

Final pressure = 5650 torr

Solution:

Initial temperature = 27°C (27+273 = 300 K)

According to Gay-Lussac Law,

The pressure of given amount of a gas is directly proportional to its temperature at constant volume and number of moles.

Mathematical relationship:

P₁/T₁ = P₂/T₂

Now we will put the values in formula:

T₂  = P₂T₁ /P₁

T₂  = 5650 torr × 300 K / 565 torr

T₂  = 1695000 torr. K /565 torr

T₂ = 3000 K

Kelvin to degree Celsius:

3000 K - 273.15 = 2726.85 °C

How are nitrogen-14 and nitrogen-15 same and different?
Likurg_2 [28]

Answer:

Since different isotopes of an element have different numbers of neutrons (but always the same number of protons) they have different mass numbers. Nitrogen-14 and nitrogen-15 are both stable isotopes of nitrogen. However, the other 5 isotopes are all unstable.

What caused the dawn horse to go extinct??
Vikentia [17]
The "Dawn horses" were actually not related to horses! Recent studies of fossils found that "Dawn Horses" were buried in the same rock layers as modern horses! evolutionists were shocked at first but then decided that the "Dawn horse" was related to rabbits! Now to answer your question no one really knows why they went extinct. Evolutionist believe they changed into rabbits and Creationists (people who believe God created the universe and that evolution is incorrect) believe they died out due to climate changes after the global flood of Noah.

A sample of hydrated magnesium sulfate (MgSO4)
yaroslaw [1]

Answer:

MgSO4.7H2O

Explanation:

Let the formula for the hydrated magnesium sulphate be MgSO4.xH2O

Mass of the hydrated salt (MgSO4.xH2O) = 12.845g

Mass of anhydrous salt (MgSO4) = 6.273g

Mass of water molecule(xH2O) = Mass of the hydrated salt — Mass of anhydrous salt = 12.845 — 6.273 = 6.572g

Now,we can obtain the number of mole of water molecule present in the hydrated salt as follows:

Molar Mass of hydrated salt (MgSO4.xH2O) = 24 + 32 + (16x4) + x(2 + 16) = 24 + 32 + 64 + x(18) = 120 + 18x

Mass of xH2O/ Molar Mass of MgSO4.xH2O = Mass of water / mass of hydrated salt

18x/120 + 18x = 6.572/12.845

Cross multiply to express in linear form

18x x 12.845 = 6.572(120 + 18x)

231.21x = 788.64 + 118.296x

Collect like terms

231.21x — 118.296x = 788.64

112.914x = 788.64

Divide both side by 112.914

x = 788.64 /112.914

x = 7

Therefore the formula for the hydrated salt (MgSO4.xH2O) is MgSO4.7H2O

What happens to iron when it melts?
Vilka [71]

As iron heats up, the arrangement of its atoms changes several times before it melts. ... Iron is magnetic at room temperature, and previous work predicted that iron's magnetism favors its open structure at low temperatures, but at 770 degrees Celsius iron loses its magnetism.
