Answer: Option (b) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Average kinetic energy is defined as half of mass of gas times the square of root mean square velocity.

Mathematically,    Average K.E = \frac{1}{2}mv^{2}_{rms}

Also,   Kinetic energy = \frac{3}{2}kT

So, when there is increase in temperature then there will be increase in movement of the molecules. As a result, kinetic energy will also increase. Since, kinetic energy is proportional to temperature.

Therefore, with decrease in temperature there will be decrease in average kinetic energy of the molecules.

Thus, we can conclude that the average kinetic energy of the molecules of a warm substance also decreases when the temperature of the substance is slightly decreased.

Sulfur dioxide gas (SO2) and oxygen gas (O2) react to form the liquid product of sulfur trioxide (SO3). How much sulfur dioxide
taurus [48]
1) Balanced chemical equation:

2SO2 (g) +  O2 (g) -> 2SO3 (l)

2) Molar ratios

2 mol SO2 : 1 mol O2 : 2 mol SO3

3) Convert 6.00 g O2 to moles

number of moles = mass in grams / molar mass

number of moles = 6.00 g / 32 g/mol = 0.1875 mol O2.

4) Use proportions with the molar ratios

=> 2 moles SO2 / 1 mol O2 = x / 0.1875 mol O2

=> x = 0.1875 mol O2 * 2 mol SO2 / 1 mol O2 = 0.375 mol SO2.

5) Convert 0.375 mol SO2 to grams

mass in grams = number of moles * molar mass

molar mass SO2 = 32 g/mol + 2*16 g/mol = 64 g/mol

=> mass SO2 = 0.375 mol * 64 g / mol = 24.0 g

Answer: 24.0 g of SO2 are needed to react completely with 6.00 g O2.

Why do you think that tsunamis occur most commonly in the Pacific Ocean?
zhenek [66]
Tsunamis are most common in the Pacific Ocean Basin. The entire Pacific Ocean is ringed by areas known as subduction zones, where the tectonic plates of the earth are moving relative to one another. Subduction zones are where two or more plates are colliding and one is going underneath another.

Calculate the number of moles of an ideal gas if it occupies 1750 dm3 under 125,000 pa at a temperature of 127 c. a. 0.21 moles
labwork [276]

The number of mole will be 65.81 mole.

An ideal gas would be one for which both the overall volume of the molecules and even the forces that exist between them are so negligible as to have no influence on the behavior of something like the gas.

Number of ideal gas can be calculated by using the formula:

PV = nRT

where, p is pressure, n is number of mole, R is gas constant and T is temperature.

Given data:

V= 1750 dm^{3} = 1750 L

P = 125,000 p = 1.2 atm

R = 0.082 L /mole kelvin

T = 273+127 = 400 K

Now, put the value of given data in above equation.

1.23atm x 1750L = n x 0.0820atm x Liter/ mole x kelvin  x 400K

n = 65.81 mole.

Therefore, the number of mole will be 65.81 mole
