Answer:

Gases in Earth's atmosphere form a protective layer

Nitrogen, oxygen and ozone molecules in the upper atmosphere and stratosphere absorb ultraviolet light from the Sun, providing a shield that prevents this radiation from passing to the Earth's surface.

Explain, in terms of particle behavior why smoke particles cause the detector alarm to sound

Explain in terms of particle behavior why smoke particles cause the detector alarm to sound


Smoke detectors are of many types but they rely on the principle of diffusion of smoke. Diffusion is the movement of particles from a region of high concentration to a region of lower concentration. Smoke particles move in what is known as Brownian motion.

The volume of a gas at 2.0 atm is 3.0 L. What is the volume of the gas at 1.5 atm at the same temperature?
Andru [333]

<u>Answer:</u> The final volume of the gas comes out to be 4 L.

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the volume with changing pressure, we use the equation given by Boyle's law.

This law states that pressure is inversely proportional to the volume of the gas at constant temperature and number of moles.

Mathematically,

P\propto \frac{1}{V}      (At constant temperature and number of moles)

The equation given by this law is:

P_1V_1=P_2V_2

where,

P_1\text{ and }V_1 are initial pressure and volume.

P_2\text{ and }V_2 are final pressure and volume.

We are given:

P_1=2.0atm\\V_1=3L\\P_2=1.5atm\\V_2=?L

Putting values in above equation, we get:

2atm\times 3L=1.5atm\times V_2\\\\V_2=4L

Hence, the final volume of the gas will be 4 L.

How many moles of oxygen are needed for the complete combustion of 29.2 grams of acetylene?
podryga [215]

Moles of Oxygen= 2.8075 moles

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

29.2 grams of acetylene

Required

moles of Oxygen

Solution

Reaction(Combustion of Acetylene) :

2 C₂H₂ (g) + 5 O₂ (g) ⇒ 4CO₂ (g) + 2H₂O (g)

Mol of Acetylene :

= mass : MW Acetylene

= 29.2 g : 26 g/mol

= 1.123

From equation, mol ratio of Acetylene(C₂H₂) : O₂ = 2 : 5, so mol O₂ :

= 5/2 x mol C₂H₂

= 5/2 x 1.123

= 2.8075 moles
