Answer:

The coefficients.

Explanation:

If you change the subscripts you are changing the chemical formulae.

A gas occupies 3.5L at 2.5 kPa pressure. What is the volume at 100 mmHg at the same temperature? Be sure to
nataly862011 [7]

Answer:

V₂ = 0.656 L

Explanation:

Given data:

Initial volume = 3.5 L

Initial pressure = 2.5 KPa

Final volume = ?

Final pressure = 100 mmHg (100/7.501=13.33 KPa)

Solution:

The given problem will be solved through the Boyle's law,

"The volume of given amount of gas is inversely proportional to its pressure by keeping the temperature and number of moles constant"

Mathematical expression:

P₁V₁ = P₂V₂

P₁ = Initial pressure

V₁ = initial volume

P₂ = final pressure

V₂ = final volume  

Now we will put the values in formula,

P₁V₁ = P₂V₂

2.5 KPa × 3.5 L = 13.33 KPa × V₂

V₂ = 8.75 KPa. L/13.33 KPa

V₂ = 0.656 L

What is the mass of an object with a net force of 10 N accelerating at 2 m/s^2??
xz_007 [3.2K]

Answer:

5kg

Explanation:

Force = Mass x acceleration

F = ma

m = F/a = 10N/2m/s^2

m = 10/2 = 5kg

The standard unit for mass = Kilogram

If 200 g of water is heated from 20 C to 40 C, then what is the heat added in kilocalories (same as food calories)?
Maslowich

Answer: 4Kcal

Explanation:

H= mcø

M=200g

C= 1 cal/g/°c

Ø= 40-20=20°c

H= 200*1*20= 4000calories= 4Kcal

ASAPPP. Describe how you could determine the specific heat of a sample of a solid substance. You may
Allushta [10]

Answer:

I would use calorimetric to determine the specific heat and I would measure the mass of a sample

Explanation:

I would use calorimetry to determine the specific heat.

I would measure the mass of a sample of the substance.

I would heat the substance to a known temperature.

I would place the heated substance into a coffee-cup calorimeter containing a known mass of water with a known initial temperature.

I would wait for the temperature to equilibrate, then calculate temperature change.

I would use the temperature change of water to determine the amount of energy absorbed.

I would use the amount of energy lost by substance, mass, and temperature change to calculate specific heat.
