The instruction booklet for your pressure cooker indicates that its highest setting is 11.1 psi. You know that standard atmosphe

ric pressure is 14.7 psi, so the booklet must mean 11.1 psi above atmospheric pressure.
At what temperature in degrees Celsius will your food cook in this pressure cooker set on "high"?

<u>Answer:</u> The temperature in the pressure cooker set on high is 206.14°C

<u>Explanation:</u>

STP conditions:

Pressure = 14.7 psi

Temperature = 273 K

To calculate the final temperature of the system, we use the equation given by Gay-Lussac Law. This law states that pressure of the gas is directly proportional to the temperature of the gas at constant pressure.

Mathematically,

\frac{P_1}{T_1}=\frac{P_2}{T_2}

where,

P_1\text{ and }T_1 are the initial pressure and temperature of the gas.

P_2\text{ and }T_2 are the final pressure and temperature of the gas.

We are given:

P_1=14.7psi\\T_1=273K\\P_2=(14.7+11.1)psi=25.8psi\\T_2=?

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\frac{14.7psi}{273K}=\frac{25.8psi}{T_2}\\\\T_2=\frac{25.8\times 273}{14.7}=479.14K

Converting the temperature from kelvins to degree Celsius, by using the conversion factor:

T(K)=T(^oC)+273

479.14=T(^oC)+273\\\\T(^oC)=(479.14-273)=206.14^oC

Hence, the temperature in the pressure cooker set on high is 206.14°C

Answer:

Van der waal's  force of attraction

Explanation:

Van der waal's  force of attraction

Forces of Van der Waals involve attraction and repulsion among atoms, particles, and surfaces as well as many other intermolecular forces. These vary from covalent and ionic bonding in that they are caused by similarities in surrounding particle fluctuating polarizations (a result of quantum dynamics).

To find the Ce4+ content in a solid sample, 4.3718 g of the solid sample were dissolved and treated with excess iodate to precip
gulaghasi [49]

Answer:

3.43 %

Explanation:

We need  to calculate first the number of moles of CeO2 produced in the combustion. Given its formula we know how many moles of Ce atom are present. From there calculate the mass this number of moles this represent and then one can calculate the percentage.

0.1848 g CeO2 x 1 mol CeO2/172.114g = 0.00107 mol CeO2

0.00107 mol CeO2 x 1 mol Ce/ 1 mol CeO2 = 0.00107 mol Ce

.00107 mol Ce x 140.116 g Ce/ mol  =  0.150 g Ce

0.150 g Ce/ 4.3718 g sample  x 100 = 3.43 %
