Dry ice (solid CO2) has occasionally been used as an "explosive" in mining. A hole is drilled, dry ice and a small amount of gun

powder are placed in the hole, a fuse is added, and the hole is plugged. When lit, the exploding gunpowder rapidly vaporizes the dry ice, building up an immense pressure. Assume that 391 g of dry ice is placed in a cavity with a volume of 0.770 L and the ignited gunpowder heats the CO2 to 695 ∘C. What is the final pressure inside the hole?

Answer:

Final pressure = 0.77atm

Explanation:

The concept used to approach this question is the Ideal gas equation

PV = nRT

where P = pressure

V = Volume

n = number of mole or amount of substance

R = ideal gas constant

T = Temperature in Kelvin

  • from the parameters given ; mass = 391g
  • volume = 0.770 L
  • Temperature = 695 ∘C = 695 + 273 = 968K
  • R = 0.0821
  • number of moles = mass/molar mass
  • molar mass of CO2 = 12 + 2x16 = 44g/mol
  • number of moles = 391g/44g/mol = 8.886mol

plugging into the equation to get the final pressure,

  • from PV = nRT
  • P = nRT/V = 8.886 x 0.0821 x 968 / 0.770
  • Final pressure = 0.77atm

Mnenie [13.5K]

The information that should be added to the chart in order to find out who ran a greater distance is THE UNITS USED TO MEASURE DISTANCE EACH DAY.

In science, the use of units if very important and each record made must be accompany with relevant units that are appropriate for the measurement taken. If units are not used along with data, it will be very difficult to quantify the values that are recorded. Scientists all over the world use SI units in their works in order to ensure uniformity.

Which diagram shows electrons violating the Pauli exclusion principle?
Neporo4naja [7]
Correct Answer: Option C

Reason:
<span>The </span>Pauli Exclusion Principle<span> states as '<em>in an atom or molecule, no two electrons can have the same four electronic quantum numbers. Further, an orbital can contain a maximum of only two electrons, the two electrons must have opposing spins.</em>'
</span>
Thus, it can be seen that in option C, electrons in last 2 subshell have electrons with same spin, which is a violation of Pauli Exclusion Principle .

Answer:

D

Explanation:

Sparking can be caused by defective cooktop elements, loose connectors, a wire with frayed insulation or a broken wire arcing over to the appliance metal frame, says Appliance Repair. If the cause of the sparking is a broken wire or a wire with frayed insulation, do not attempt to splice the wire; you must replace it. Repair Clinic suggests checking the spark ignition switches, as they might be defective and in need of replacing.
