Calculate the root mean square (rms) average speed of the atoms in a sample of xenon gas at 0.15 atm and -55c

1 answer:

7 0

Answer:
Vrms is 149.7266 m/sec

Explanation:
The root means square velocity of a gas can be calculated as follows:
Vrms = $\sqrt{ \frac{3RT}{M}}$
where:
R is the ideal gas constant = 8.3145
T is absolute temperature = -55 + 273 = 118 degrees kelvin
M is the molar mass of the gas = 131.293 grams = 0.131293 kg

Substituting with these givens in the above equation, we would find that the Vrms is 149.7266 m/sec

Hope this helps :)

A gas has a pressure of 450 mmHg at 100 degrees Celsius. What will its new pressure be when the temperature rises 200 degrees Ce

Ahat [919]

Answer:

P2 = 900 mmHg.

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Initial pressure = 450 mmHg

Initial temperature = 100°C

Final temperature = 200°C

To find the final pressure, we would use Gay Lussac's law;

Gay Lussac states that when the volume of an ideal gas is kept constant, the pressure of the gas is directly proportional to the absolute temperature of the gas.

Mathematically, Gay Lussac's law is given by;

$PT = K$

$\frac{P1}{T1} = \frac{P2}{T2}$

Making P2 as the subject formula, we have;

$P_{2}= \frac{P1}{T1} * T_{2}$

$P_{2}= \frac{450}{100} * 200$

$P_{2}= 4.5 * 200$

Final pressure, P2 = 900 mmHg.

if 28.5 g of calcium hydroxide is dissolved in enough water to make 185g of solution what is the percent by mass of calcium hydr

DENIUS [597]

The percent by mass of calcium hydroxide in the solution : 15.41%

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

The concentration of a substance can be expressed in several quantities such as moles, percent (%) weight/volume,), molarity, molality, parts per million (ppm) or mole fraction. The concentration shows the amount of solute in a unit of the amount of solvent.

Mass of solute (Ca(OH₂-Calcium hydroxide) : 28.5

Mass of solution = 185 g

$\tt \%mass=\dfrac{mass~solute}{mass~solution}\times 100\%\\\\\%mass=\dfrac{28.5~g}{185~g}\times 100\%\\\\\%mass=15.41\%$
