Describe porosity and how that affects groundwater infiltration.

Chemistry
1 answer:

It’s the measure of spaces between objects. It affects groundwater infiltration by having more water fill the spaces between it. For example, is you have bigger rocks the spaces between it are bigger therefore the groundwater infiltration rate is faster. If the rocks are smaller, they are tightly packed and it’s not easy for groundwater infiltration.

A 9.79 mol sample of freon gas was placed in a balloon. Adding 3.50 mol of freon gas to the balloon increased its volume to 21.8
aivan3 [116]

Answer:

16.06 L was the initial volume of the balloon.

Explanation:

Initial moles of freon in ballon = n_1=9.79 mol

Initial volume of freon gas in ballon = V_1=?

Moles of freon gas added in the balloon = n = 3.50 mole

Final moles of freon in ballon = n_2=n_1+n=9.79 mol+3.50 mol=13.29 mol

Final volume of freon gas in ballon = V_2=21.8 L

Using Avogadro's law:

\frac{V_1}{n_1}=\frac{V_2}{n_2} ( at constant pressure and temperature)

V_1=\frac{V_2\times n_1}{n_2}=\frac{21.8 L\times 9.79 mol}{13.29 mol}=16.06L

16.06 L was the initial volume of the balloon.

Melatonin has the chemical formula C13H16N2O2. Less than 10 milligrams(0.01g) Convert the melatonin to moles
oee [108]

Answer: There are 0.000043 moles of melatonin.

Explanation:

According to avogadro's law, 1 mole of every substance occupies 22.4 L at STP and contains avogadro's number 6.023\times 10^{23} of particles.

To calculate the moles, we use the equation:

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

given mass = 10 mg = 0.01 g

molar mass of C_{13}H_{16}N_2O_2 = 232.28 g

{\text {moles of melatonin}}=\frac{0.01g}{232.28g/mol}=0.000043moles

Thus there are 0.000043 moles of melatonin

why can the combined weights of several liquids mixed in an open flask be less than but never more than the sum of all the weigh
nexus9112 [7]
Because you are never adding more than the substances created, nor are you creating any, but should a chemical reaction take place you could see the liquid change form into a gaseous state and that would result a loss of the liquid volume.
So to wrap it all up you can’t have more liquids than what is already there but you could always lose some due to a chemical change, hence the reason it says an open flask, the chemical change would not be collected, mass would be lost
