A helium-filled balloon escapes a child's hand at sea level and 21.1 deg C. When it reaches an altitude of 3000 m, where the tem

perature is 4.8 deg C and the pressure is only 0.72 atm , how will its volume compare to that at sea level?

Answer:

Explanation:

Well use the combines gas law to evaluate this question;

P₁V₁/T₁ = P₂V₂/T₂     (Remember that at sea level the pressure is usually 1 atm)

1 * V₁ / 294.25 = 0.72 * V₂ / 277.95     (NB: Temperatures have to be in Kelvin)

V₁ / 294.25 * 277.95     = 0.72 V₂

0.945 V₁ = 0.72 V₂

0.945/0.72 V₁ = V₂

1.312 V₁ = V₂

The volume (V2) at 3000 m altitude will be <u>1.312 </u>bigger than the initial volume at sea level.

What is one way to test whether an unknown solution is acidic or basic?
sertanlavr [38]

Answer: There are several ways. The first that comes to mind is a pH meter. A pH electrode Is lowered into the solution, and (Assuming) the pH Meter has been properly calibrated, and the temperature of the solution is set to the calibration of the Meter, the pH can be read directly from an analogue scale or digital readout. Below 7 is acidic, 7 is Neutral, (like Pure Water), and over 7 is Alkaline, or Basic.

A useful, but less accurate method is the use of any number of “pH Indicator Solutions”, which are essentially a type of various colored dyes that change color within differing pH ranges. Usually, if the pH is unknown, a small amount of solution is removed from the container and tested separately - in a “well plate”, or similar method.

These types of dyes, or Indicator Solutions, can be dried upon strips of “pH indicator Paper”, which, depending upon the type can be very useful when carrying out more precisely arrived at pH tests like Titration.

Just to see if a solution is “Acid” or “Base”, Litmus paper is used; “a Red color shows Acidity, and a Blue color, a Base”; ergo, “An Acid Solution will turn Litmus Paper, Red”.

What happens in nuclear fission reactions?
Dmitry [639]

Answer:

in nuclear fission, an unstable atom splits into 2 or more smaller pieces that are more stable and releases energy in the process. the fission process also releases extra neutrons which can split additional atoms, resulting in a chain reaction that releases a lot of energy
