Describe porosity and how that affects groundwater infiltration.

Chemistry

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.

In the molecule NO2 which element is pulling the electrons
Andrei [34K]

The bond between the N and 0 (double bond) transfers and gives a -ve charge on O and a +ve charge on N atom at the group . Thus the +vely charged nitrogen is electron-deficient pulling electrons towards itself!

The combination of the +vely charged nitrogen and the electronegative oxygen atom leads to delocalization causing the resonance effect.

Use the ideal-gas law to estimate the number of air molecules in your physics lab room, assuming all the air is N2. Assume a roo
stiv31 [10]

Answer:

4.13×10²⁷ molecules of N₂ are in the room

Explanation:

ideal gases Law → P . V = n . R . T

Pressure . volume = moles . Ideal Gases Constant . T° K

T°K = T°C + 273 → 20°C + 273 = 293K

Let's determine the volume of the room:

18 ft . 18 ft . 18ft = 5832 ft³

We convert the ft³ to L → 5832 ft³ . 28.3L / 1 ft³ = 165045.6 L

1 atm .  165045.6 L = n . 0.082 L.atm/mol.K . 293K

(1 atm .  165045.6 L) / 0.082 L.atm/mol.K . 293K = n

6869.4 moles of N₂ are in the room

If we want to find out the number of molecules we multiply the moles by NA

6869.4 mol . 6.02×10²³ = 4.13×10²⁷ molecules

6 At STP, which element is a good conductor of electricity?(1) chlorine (3) silver
alexgriva [62]
For an object to conduct electricity it should have free or delocalised electrons that are free to pass the charge and hence take part in conducting electricity.
From the given choices
Chlorine is a halogen existing as a diatomic gas. Iodine too is a halogen and 2 Iodine atoms held together by covalent bond. Cl - Cl bonds and I-I bonds are  covalent bonds. the outer electrons of Cl and I take part in covalent bonds therefore they are fixed and not free to move about. therefore no free electrons to conduct electricity.
Sulfur is a solid that too is held together by covalent bonds so it does not have free electrons to conduct electricity.

Silver is a metal and a general property of metals are their ability to conduct electricity.
metal structure are metal ions tightly packed together. when the metal atoms are tightly packed their valence electrons are removed and delocalised. Positively charged metal ions are embedded in a sea of delocalised electrons.
therefore there are delocalised electrons that can conduct electricity 


answer is 3) silver

128g of sulphur are burned in excess oxygen. What mass of sulphur dioxide forms? S + O2 --&gt; SO2 *
Rasek [7]

Mass of Sulphur dioxide : 256 g

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

Reaction

S + O2 --> SO2 *

Required

Mass of Sulphur dioxide

Solution

mol of Sulphur (Ar=32 g/mol) :

mol = mass : Ar

mol = 128 : 32

mol = 4

From the equation, mol ratio S : SO2 = 1 : 1, so mol SO2 = 4

Mass of SO2 :

mass = mol x MW SO2

mass = 4 x 64

mass = 256 g
