Answer:

3.4dm3

Explanation:

We'll begin by calculating the number of mole of CaCO3 present in 12.8g of CaCO3.

This can be achieved as shown below:

Molar Mass of CaCO3 = 40 + 12 + (16x3) = 40 + 12 + 48 = 100g/mol

Mass of CaCO3 obtained from the question = 12.8g

Number of mole of CaCO3 =?

Number of mole = Mass /Molar Mass

Number of mole of CaCO3 = 12.8/100

Number of mole of CaCO3 = 0.128 mole

The equation for the reaction is given below:

CaCO3 → CaO + CO2

From the equation above,

1 mole of CaCO3 produced 1 mole of CO2.

Therefore, 0.128 mole of CaCO3 will also produce 0.128 mole of CO2.

Now, we can obtain the volume of CO2 produced as follow:

Data obtained from the question include:

T (temperature) = 38°C = 38 + 273 = 311K

P (pressure) = 0.96 atm

n (number of mole of CO2) = 0.128 mole

R (gas constant) = 0.082atm.dm3/Kmol

V (volume of CO2) =?

Using the ideal gas equation PV = nRT, the volume of CO2 produced can be obtained as shown:

PV = nRT

0.96 x V = 0.128 x 0.082 x 311

Divide both side by 0.96

V = (0.128 x 0.082 x 311) /0.96

V = 3.4dm3

Therefore, 3.4dm3 of CO2 are produced.

katrin [286]

Answer:

cells arose from preexisting cells

Explanation:

<em>Rudolph Virchow is a German biologist that built on the work of other scientists such as Theodor Schwan to contribute his own quota to the development of the cell theory as it is currently known.</em>

After several studies, Virchow rejected the idea of spontaneous generation and accepted the initially rejected idea of cell division. He earlier believed that cell division only takes place is some special type of cells and not in all cells.

Even though Virchow was not the first to bring the idea of cells arising from preexisting cells, he was the one that popularized the idea and added it to the earlier belief that all living organisms are made up of cells.

A gas has a pressure of 0.12 atm at 294 K. What is the new pressure at 273 K?​
seropon [69]

Answer:

P₂ = 0.11 atm

Explanation:

Given data:

Initial pressure = 0.12 atm

Initial temperature = 294 K

Final pressure = ?

Final temperature = 273 K

Solution:

According to Gay-Lussac Law,

The pressure of given amount of a gas is directly proportional to its temperature at constant volume and number of moles.

Mathematical relationship:

P₁/T₁ = P₂/T₂

Now we will put the values in formula:

0.12 atm / 294 K = P₂/273 K

P₂ = 0.12 atm × 273 K / 294 K

P₂ = 32.76 atm. K /294 K

P₂ = 0.11 atm

It took many of the metals several minutes to begin to react. Once the reaction was initiated, several of these metals continued
o-na [289]

Answer:

Passivation of Oxide layers of the metals.

Explanation:

Passivation is a non-electrolytic finishing process that makes most metals rust-resistant. The prosses removes free iron from the surface by using either nitric or citric acid. When this happens, it results to an inert, protective oxide layer that is very slow or less likely to chemically react with air and cause corrosion.

Passivity caused many of the metals several minutes to begin to react. Once the finishing process that makes metals less likely to react was eroded, reaction was initiated vigorously.

A pure crystalline substance has no movement at absolute zero temperature. O 1st Law of Thermodynamics O 3rd Law of Thermodynami
OverLord2011 [107]

3rd Law of Thermodynamics

The correct answer is the third law of thermodynamics.

"The entropy of a perfect crystal is zero when the temperature of the crystal is equal to absolute zero (0 K).”

The temperature scale they refer to is the zero in kelvin degrees, this is what we call absolute zero.

If the entropy is zero, all physic processes stop, and the entropy of the system is minimum and constant.
