Does a nebula have mass

Chemistry

nebula is an interstellar cloud of dust, hydrogen, helium and other ionized gases. although denser than the space surrounding them, most nebulae are far less dense than any vacuum created on earth – a nebular cloud the size of the earth would have a total mass of only a few kilograms. (wikipedia)

hope this helps! ❤ from peachimin

Yes, Planetary nebula are small objects, having a radius typically of 1 light-year and containing a mass of gas of about 0.3 solar mass. To find the mass you need estimate the nebula's density, either on the basis of how much light it emits or (more likely) how much it extinguishes light from objects behind it. Then you multiply by the volume, which is easy to estimate assuming that the nebula is even slightly symmetric.

Consider the reaction given below.
Drupady [299]

Answer:

  • <u>K =  0.167 s⁻¹</u>

Explanation:

<u>1) Rate law, at a given temperature:</u>

  • Since all the data are obtained at the same temperature, the equilibrium constant is the same.

  • Since only reactants A and B participate in the reaction, you assume that the form of the rate law is:

        r = K [A]ᵃ [B]ᵇ

<u>2) Use the data from the table</u>

  • Since the first and second set of data have the same concentration of the reactant A, you can use them to find the exponent b:

        r₁ = (1.50)ᵃ (1.50)ᵇ = 2.50 × 10⁻¹ M/s

        r₂ = (1.50)ᵃ (2.50)ᵇ = 2.50 × 10⁻¹ M/s

         Divide r₂ by r₁:     [ 2.50 / 1.50] ᵇ = 1 ⇒ b = 0

  • Use the first and second set of data to find the exponent a:

        r₁ = (1.50)ᵃ (1.50)ᵇ = 2.50 × 10⁻¹ M/s

        r₃ = (3.00)ᵃ (1.50)ᵇ = 5.00 × 10⁻¹ M/s

        Divide r₃ by r₂: [3.00 / 1.50]ᵃ = [5.00 / 2.50]

                                  2ᵃ = 2 ⇒ a = 1

         

<u>3) Write the rate law</u>

  • r = K [A]¹ [B]⁰ = K[A]

This means, that the rate is independent of reactant B and is of first order respect reactant A.

<u>4) Use any set of data to find K</u>

With the first set of data

  • r = K (1.50 M) = 2.50 × 10⁻¹ M/s ⇒ K = 0.250 M/s / 1.50 M = 0.167 s⁻¹

Result: the rate constant is K =  0.167 s⁻¹

A gas of 3.4 moles occupies a volume of 0.046 L at 298 K. What is the pressure in kPa?
Phantasy [73]

Answer : The correct option is, 2.1\times 10^5kPa

Explanation :

To calculate the pressure of gas we are using ideal gas equation as:

PV=nRT

where,

P = pressure of gas = ?

V = volume of gas = 0.046 L

n = number of moles of gas = 3.4

R = gas constant = 8.314 L.kPa/mol.K

T = temperature of gas = 298 K

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get:

P\times (0.046L)=(3.4mol)\times (8.314L.kPa/mol.K)\times (298K)

P=1.83\times 10^5kPa\approx 2.1\times 10^5kPa

Therefore, the pressure of gas is, 2.1\times 10^5kPa

How many significant figures are in this number? : 2.7 x 10^-3
Lady_Fox [76]

Answer:

2 significant figures i.e. 2 and 7.

Explanation:

We need to find the number of significant figures in the given number i.e. 2.7\cdot10^{-3}.

It has 2 significant figures i.e. 2 and 7.

It means the power of 10 doesn't count in the significant figures.

Hence, there are 2 significant figures.
