Catenation is the property by which it can make bonds with other carbon<span> atoms to form long chains. Hence, </span>carbon<span>, with the least diffuse valence shell p orbital is capable of forming longer p-p sigma bonded chains of atoms than heavier elements which bond via higher valence shell orbitals.</span>

Air containing 0.04% carbon dioxide is pumped into a room whose volume is 6000 ft3. The air is pumped in at a rate of 2000 ft3/m
koban [17]

Here is the full question:

Air containing 0.04% carbon dioxide is pumped into a room whose volume is 6000 ft3. The air is pumped in at a rate of 2000 ft3/min, and the circulated air is then pumped out at the same rate. If there is an initial concentration of 0.2% carbon dioxide, determine the subsequent amount in the room at any time.

What is the concentration at 10 minutes? (Round your answer to three decimal places.

Answer:

0.046 %

Explanation:

The rate-in;

R_{in} = \frac{0.04}{100}*2000

R_{in} = 0.8

The rate-out

R_{out} = \frac{A}{6000}*2000

R_{out} = \frac{A}{3}

We can say that:

\frac{dA}{dt}= 0.8-\frac{A}{3}

where;

A(0)= 0.2% × 6000

A(0)= 0.002 × 6000

A(0)= 12

\frac{dA}{dt} +\frac{A}{3} =0.8

Integration of the above linear equation =

e^{\int\limits \frac {1}{3}dt } = e^{\frac{1}{3}t

so we have:

e^{\frac{1}{3}t}\frac{dA}{dt}} +\frac{1}{3}e^{\frac{1}{3}t}A = 0.8e^{\frac{1}{3}t

\frac{d}{dt}[e^{\frac{1}{3}t}A] = 0.8e^{\frac{1}{3}t

Ae^{\frac{1}{3}t} =2.4e\frac{1}{3}t +C

∴ A(t) = 2.4 +Ce^{-\frac{1}{3}t

Since A(0) = 12

Then;

12 =2.4 + Ce^{-\frac{1}{3}}(0)

C= 12-2.4

C =9.6

Hence;

A(t) = 2.4 +9.6e^{-\frac{t}{3}}

A(0) = 2.4 +9.6e^{-\frac{10}{3}}

A(t) = 2.74

∴ the concentration at 10 minutes is ;

=  \frac{2.74}{6000}*100%

= 0.0456667 %

= 0.046% to three decimal places

naturally occurring bromine molecules, br2 have masses of 158, 160, and 162. they occur in the relative abundances 25.69%, 49.99
4vir4ik [10]
The average atomic mass of an element can be determined by multiplying the individual masses of the isotopes with their respective relative abundances, and adding them. 

Average atomic mass of Br = 158 amu(0.2569) + 160 amu(0.4999) + 162 amu(0.2431)
Average atomic mass = 159.96 amu

As described in the problem, the relative abundance for Br-79 is 25.69%. This is because 2 atoms of Br is equal to 79*2 = 158 amu. Similarly, the relative abundance of Br-81 is 81*2 = 162, which is 24.31%.

How does freezing affect the volume of water?
MrRissso [65]

Increases the volume of water

Explanation:

Freezing of water causes the volume of water to increase by a whooping 4%. This is why the density of water is slightly different that of ice.

When ice freezes it expands and takes up more volume of space for the same mass given.

This is why bottles break when water in them is frozen.

This increase in volume is why ice floats on water. It makes it less dense.
