In an oxidation-reduction reaction, the reducing agent In an oxidation-reduction reaction, the reducing agent gains electrons an

Leto [7]

Answer:

loses electrons and loses potential energy.

Explanation:

A reducing agent looses electrons in an oxidation-reduction reaction. Oxidation is defined as the loss of electrons.

Reducing agents are oxidized in an oxidation-reduction reaction. When a specie looses electrons, it also looses energy. Hence the answer given above.

1 lb of CO2 occupies 0.6 ft^3 at a pressure of 200 psi. Determine the temperature of the system.

Anarel [89]

<u>Answer:</u> The temperature of the system is 273 K

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the number of moles, we use the equation:

$\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}$

Given mass of carbon dioxide = 1 lb = 453.6 g (Conversion factor: 1 lb = 453.6 g)

Molar mass of carbon dioxide = 44 g/mol

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$\text{Moles of carbon dioxide}=\frac{453.6g}{44g/mol}=10.31mol$

To calculate the temperature of gas, we use the equation given by ideal gas equation:

PV = nRT

where,

P = Pressure of carbon dioxide = 200 psia = 13.6 atm (Conversion factor: 1 psia = 0.068 atm)

V = Volume of carbon dioxide = $0.6ft^3=16.992L$ (Conversion factor: $1ft^3=28.32L$ )

n = number of moles of carbon dioxide = 10.31 mol

R = Gas constant = $0.0821\text{ L atm }mol^{-1}K^{-1}$

T = temperature of the system = ?

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$13.6atm\times 16.992L=10.31mol\times 0.0821\text{ L atm }mol^{-1}K^{-1}\times T\\\\T=273K$

Hence, the temperature of the system is 273 K

As a student , what can you do to help in preventing pollution in your community ?

aliya0001 [1]

Answer: as a student , i will do to help in preventing pollution in my community :

Reduce the number of trips you take in your car.

Reduce or eliminate fireplace and wood stove use.

Avoid burning leaves, trash, and other materials.

Avoid using gas-powered lawn and garden equipment.

Using non-toxic or less toxic chemicals as cleaners, degreasers and other maintenance chemicals. Implementing water and energy conservation practices. Reusing materials such as drums and pallets rather than disposing of them as waste.

Store your household chemicals (including cleaning products, paints, fuel canisters, etc.) as far away as possible from the living space and, if possible, in metal cabinets. Do not store chemicals in areas where you spend most of the time. Also, do not store chemicals in open cabinets or shelves.

Use Public Transportation. Use your vehicle a lot less often. .

Drive Smart. .

Do Regular Car Check-Up. .

Keep Car Tires Properly Inflated. .

Buy Energy-Efficient Vehicles. .

Consider “going green” .

Plant a Garden. .

Use Low-VOC or Water-based Paints.

Avoid smoking indoors (but quitting smoking is the best answer for overall health).

Use craft supplies in well-ventilated areas.

Make sure your gas stove is well-ventilated.

Minimize clutter.

Remove carpeting if possible.

Use a dehumidifier and/or air conditioner to reduce moisture.

How can students help reduce pollution?

Help Recycling

The most obvious things to reuse are plastic, glass, metal, and paper or fabric (paper and organic fabric are made of the same component, cellulose, and are recycled in a similar way). The color-coded trash bins show where each of these components can be put to be recycled in a proper way.

A wave has a frequency of 4.00 hz and a wavelength of 10.0 m. What is the speed of the wave?

Sidana [21]

First use this equation to find the wave speed: vms== =τµ/ 0.4/ 0.001 20 / Then use the equation for solving frequency of a wavelength, and solve for wavelength λ = v/f = 20/100 = .2 m = 20 cm.

1. Describe how you can use the graduated cylinder to determine the volume of a small, irregularly-shaped metal. 2. What safety

alisha [4.7K]

Explanation:

1.

i. Measure the initial volume of water in a graduated cylinder.

ii. Now submerge the irregularly shaped metal into water in a graduated cylinder.

iii. Measure the final volume of water.

iv. The difference between the final volume and the initial volume is the volume of the irregularly shaped metal.

2.

When adding the irregularly shaped metal into the glass graduated cylinder. Make sure that the irregularly shaped metal is completely submerged into the water.
