Two hydraulic cylinders are connected. If the diameter of one piston is twice the other, the how does the pressure experienced b

y the smaller piston compare to the pressure experienced by the larger piston?
Chemistry

Aneli [31]3 years ago

Answer:

They experience the same pressure

Explanation:

To answer this question, we recall Pascal's, Law Pascal's law states that  an increase in pressure at a point in a confined cylinder containing a fluid, there is also an equal increase at all other points in that cylinder.

According to Pascal's law the pressure if the pressure expereienced by the larger diameter piston increases, the pressure experienced by the smaller diameter piston also increases by the same amount

However considering that pressure = Force/area F1/A1 =F2/A2

thus where A1 = πD²÷4 and A2 = πD²÷ 16 we have

we have F1×4/πD² = F2×16/πD² or F1 = 4× F2

They experience the same pressure but the larger cylinder delivers four times the force transmitted from he outside to the smaller cylinder

Calculate the pOH of a solution if the concentration of hydroxide ions (OH-) is 1.9 x 10-5M?
OLEGan [10]

Answer:

9.28

Explanation:

pOH refers to a measure of hydroxide ions concentration. pOH tells about the alkalinity of a solution. If pOH is less than 7 then aqueous solutions are alkaline, acidic if pOH is greater than 7 and neutral if pOH is equal to 7.

Concentration of the hydroxide ions = 1.9 x 10-5 M

pH = -log(1.9\times 10^{-5})=4.72

pOH = 14 - pH

=14 - 4.72 = 9.28

Be sure to answer all parts. A concentration cell consists of two Sn/Sn2+ half-cells. The electrolyte in compartment A is 0.23 M
kolbaska11 [484]

Answer:

Part A. The half-cell B is the cathode and the half-cell A is the anode

Part B. 0.017V

Explanation:

Part A

The electrons must go from the anode to the cathode. At the anode oxidation takes place, and at the cathode a reduction, so the flow of electrons must go from the less concentrated solution to the most one (at oxidation the concentration intends to increase, and at the reduction, the concentration intends to decrease).

So, the half-cell B is the cathode and the half-cell A is the anode.

Part B

By the Nersnt equation:

E°cell = E° - (0.0592/n)*log[anode]/[cathode]

Where n is the number of electrons being changed in the reaction, in this case, n = 2 (Sn goes from S⁺²). Because the half-reactions are the same, the reduction potential of the anode is equal to the cathode, and E° = 0 V.

E°cell = 0 - (0.0592/2)*log(0.23/0.87)

E°cell = 0.017V

Determine the temperature of 1.42 mol of a gas contained in a 3.00-L container at a pressure of 123 kPa
Rashid [163]

Answer:

The temperature is 30,92K

Explanation:

We use the formula PV=nRT. We convert the unit of pressure in kPa into atm.

101,325kPa----1atm

121kPa-------x=(121,3kPax 1 atm)/101,325kPa=1, 2 atm

PV=nRT---->T= (PV)/(RT)

T=(1,2 atm x 3L)/(1,42 mol x 0,082 l atm/K mol )= 30, 91721058 K
