Answer:

The correct option is D) it allows water to boil at temperatures above 100 ° C.

Explanation:

Hello!

Let's solve this!

In an autoclave, saturated water vapor is used, at a temperature of 121 ° C, at high pressures. In this way, it can be used to sterilize surgical and laboratory items.

The correct option is D) it allows water to boil at temperatures above 100 ° C.

Consider the following system at equilibrium where H° = 111 kJ/mol, and Kc = 6.30, at 723 K.

Rashid [163]

Answer:

1) The value of Kc:

C. remains the same.

2) The value of Qc:

A. is greater than Kc.

3) The reaction must:

B. run in the reverse direction to restablish equilibrium.

4) The concentration of N2 will:

B. decrease.

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, by means of the Le Chatelier's principle which is based on the shift a chemical reaction could have under some modifications, we have:

1) The value of Kc:

C. remains the same, since it just depend the reaction's thermodynamics as it is computed via:

$ln(K)=\frac{\Delta _RG}{RT}$

2) The value of Qc:

A. is greater than Kc, since the reaction quotient is:

$Qc=\frac{[N_2][H_2]^3}{[NH_3]^2}$

Thus, the lower the concentration of ammonia, the higher Qc, making Qc>Kc.

3) The reaction must:

B. run in the reverse direction to restablish equilibrium, since ammonia was withdrawn and should be regenerated to reach the equilibrium.

4) The concentration of N2 will:

B. decrease, since less reactant is forming the products.

Best regards.

Write a rap about fossils please

givi [52]

Answer:

CHORUS 1:

Fossil rocks are in the ground tonight

They’ve been down there for a really long time

They contain the history of life

They’ve been down there for a really long time

Fossil rocks are in the ground tonight

They’ve been down there for a really long time (They’re the schist*)

They are literally on the grind

Take your hammer out and... break that

VERSE 1:

Look at the ground. Partly rock

Plus plants and animals stuck in their spot. Huh

Each new layer stackin’ up

So the oldest on the bottom and the newest on top

“So how old is your fossil, bro?”

Well it was pretty far down so it’s pretty darn old

And I dated this one, so I gots to know

It’s from 3.5 billion years ago

Yo. I got that lava flow, Volcano

Air full of particles & smoke

There goes life as they know

Now that’s a blast! But most rocks ain’t movin’ that fast

The sediment’s evidence. Like a present tellin’ us of the past

CHORUS 2:

Take your chisel out and… flake that

BREAK:

Everyday I’m Shovelin’…

Brushin’ ‘em, Brushin’ ‘em

VERSE 2:

Brush it off and hear the story of life as told through rock

The story of the earth as told through life. Now stop... do the trilobite

Continental plates (are driftin’)

Mountains in the states (upliftin’)

Tend to isolate (species)

By affecting who you mate with (believe me)

Slow moves. Long time. Push up mountains to the sky

Slow moves. Long time. Open up a great divide

Slow moves. Long time. Fossils found on either side

Fossils found they tell us why... tell the history of life....

Slow moves. Long time. Slow moves. Long time

Plates are driftin’ at ya boy. Plates are driftin’ at ya boy

Plates are driftin’ at ya boy. Now boom. There’s an asteroid

How does natural selection produce adaptations in a species?

pashok25 [27]

Well the organism that is producing an offspring is already very adapted to it's surroundings. So, the organism has developed characteristics that help it survive in it's environment. These traits are passed down to the offspring. Creating adaptations to this particular species.

A fuel tank holds 22.3 gallons of gasoline. If the density is 0.8206 g/mL, what is the mass in kilograms of gasoline in a full t

7nadin3 [17]

Answer:

$m=69.3kg$

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, since the density is computed by dividing the mass of the substance by its occupied volume (d=m/V), we first need to realize that 0.8206 g/mL is the same to 0.8206 kg/L, which means we first need to compute the volume in L:

$V=22.3gal*\frac{3.78541L}{1gal}=84.415L$

Then, solving for the mass in d=m/V, we get m=d*V and therefore the mass of gasoline in that full tank turns out:

$m=0.8206g/L*84.415L\\\\m=69.3kg$

Best regards!
