You have collected a tissue specimen that you would like to preserve by freeze drying. To ensure the integrity of the specimen,

the temperature should not exceed - 5.00 o C. The vapor pressure of ice at 273.16K is 624 Pa. What is the maximum pressure at which the freeze drying can be carried out?

Answer:

The maximum pressure is 612.2 Pa

Explanation:

The pressure of the ice (P1) = 624 Pa

The temperature of the ice = 273.16 K

The maximum temperature the specimen = - 5 oC

                                                                     = -5 + 273 = 268K

The maximum Pressure the freeze drying can be will be (P2) = ?

Using Pressure law, which shows the relationship between pressure and temperature.

                        P1 / T1 = P2 / T2

                       P2 T1 = P1 T2

                       P2 = P1 T2 / T1

                       P2 = 624 × 268 / 273.16

                       P2 = 612.2 Pa

The maximum pressure at which drying can be carried out is 612.2 Pa

The acid HOCl (hypochlorous acid) is produced by bubbling chlorine gas through a suspension of solid mercury(II) oxide particles
sergejj [24]

<u>Answer:</u> The expression for equilibrium constant is K_{eq}=\frac{[HOCl]^2}{[H_2O][Cl_2]^2}

<u>Explanation:</u>

Equilibrium constant is defined as the ratio of concentration of products to the concentration of reactants each raised to the power their stoichiometric ratios. It is expressed as K_{eq}

For the general chemical equation:

aA+bB\rightleftharpoons cC+dD

The expression for K_c is given as:

K_c=\frac{[C]^c[D]^d}{[A]^a[B]^b}

For the given chemical reaction:

2HgO(s)+H_2O(l)+2Cl_2(g)\rightleftharpoons 2HOCl(aq.)+HgO.HgCl_2(s)

The expression for K_{eq} is given as:

K_{eq}=\frac{[HOCl]^2[HgO.HgCl_2]}{[HgO]^2[H_2O][Cl_2]^2}

The concentration of solid is taken to be 0.

So, the expression for K_{eq} is given as:

K_{eq}=\frac{[HOCl]^2}{[H_2O][Cl_2]^2}

Why does nuclear fusion occur in stars but not on Earth?
disa [49]

Answer:

C.

Fusion reactions require a lot of heat and pressure

Explanation:

nuclear fusion takes place only at extremely high temperatures. That's because a great deal of energy is needed to overcome the force of repulsion between the positively charged nuclei. ... A: Nuclear fusion doesn't occur naturally on Earth because it requires temperatures far higher than Earth temperatures.

A 34.0 g piece of metal is heated to 92.0°C then placed in a beaker of water containing 22.0 g of water at 19.0°C. The temperatu
lapo4ka [179]

Answer:

0.1988 J/g°C

Explanation:

-Qmetal = Qwater

Q = mc∆T

Where;

Q = amount of heat

m = mass of substance

c = specific heat of substance

∆T = change in temperature

Hence;

-{mc∆T} of metal = {mc∆T} of water

From the information provided in this question, For water; m= 22.0g, ∆T = (24°C-19°C), c = 4.18J/g°C.

For metal; m= 34.0g, ∆T = (24°C-92°C), c = ?

Note that, the final temperature of water and the metal = 24°C

-{34 × c × (24°C-92°C)} = 22 × 4.18 × (24°C-19°C)

-{34 × c × (-68°C)} = 459.8

-{34 × c × -68} = 459.8

-{-2312c} = 459.8

+2312c = 459.8

c = 459.8/2312

c = 0.1988

The specific heat capacity of the metal is 0.1988 J/g°C
