The instruction booklet for your pressure cooker indicates that its highest setting is 11.8 psipsi . You know that standard atmo

spheric pressure is 14.7 psipsi, so the booklet must mean 11.8 psipsi 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 at which the food will cook is 219.14°C

<u>Explanation:</u>

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+11.8)psi=26.5psi\\T_2=?

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\frac{14.7psi}{273K}=\frac{26.5psi}{T_2}\\\\T_2=\frac{26.5\times 273}{14.7}=492.14K

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

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

492.14=T(^oC)+273\\\\T(^oC)=219.14^oC

Hence, the temperature at which the food will cook is 219.14°C

Potassium superoxide is a yellow paramagnetic solid that reacts with water according to the following balanced equation. Calcula
babunello [35]

<u>Answer:</u> The mass of potassium superoxide required is 142.2 grams

<u>Explanation:</u>

The chemical equation for the reaction of potassium superoxide with water follows:

2KO_2+H_2O\rightarrow KOH+KHO_2+O_2;\Delta H=2405J

Number of moles of potassium superoxide reacted = 2 moles for given amount of heat released

To calculate the mass for given number of moles, we use the equation:

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}

Molar mass of potassium superoxide = 71.1 g/mol

Moles of potassium superoxide = 2 moles

Putting values in above equation, we get:

2mol=\frac{\text{Mass of potassium superoxide}}{71.1g/mol}\\\\\text{Mass of potassium superoxide}=(2mol\times 71.1g/mol)=142.2g

Hence, the mass of potassium superoxide required is 142.2 grams

A chemical change involves a change in ________. A chemical change involves a change in ________. phase the elements of a molecu
Firlakuza [10]

Answer:

All of the above.

Explanation:

Chemical changes occur when a substance combines with another to form a new substance, called chemical synthesis or, alternatively, chemical decomposition into two or more different substances.

This process is not reversible and a change of energy that is sometimes heat is given off.

Classify the following as a physical property (phys) or a chemical property (chem). (a) Silver metal has a shiny luster. (b) Sil
ANTONII [103]

Answer:

Explanation:

Hello,

The question above requires us to classify certain properties which may either fall into physical or chemical properties of that matter.

Physical properties are properties which are of intrinsic value and has no influence on the chemical nature of the substance while chemical properties are those that influence the chemical nature of the substance.

Physical properties can be measured or calculated while chemical properties of a substance is very difficult to measure.

a). Silver has a shiny luster is an example of "physical property" because the shiny nature of silver has no chemical importance.

b). Silver metal has a density of 10.49 g/cm³ is also a "physical property" because density is a physical property of a material.

Density is ratio between mass and volume which are both physical properties since they can be measured.

c). Silver metal and Chlorine gas produce Silver chloride (AgCl) is a "chemical property" since it involves combining of two elements and they both lose their original chemical identity after the reaction.

d). Silver metal has a melting point of 1235°C is a "physical property"

e). Silver metal conducts electricity is a "chemical property" since conduction of electricity are done by the availability of mobile electrons in its electron cloud.

f) silver metal gives no reaction to acid is also an example of "chemical property"
