Describe how adding the prefix mega to a unit affects the quantity being described

Chemistry
1 answer:
neonofarm [45]3 years ago
5 0

If the prefix mega is added to the unit of the quantity being described, the magnitude of quantity increases by 10^{6} times i.e. 1 million times.

For Example- 1 MW = 1000000 watts

What is the predicted change in the boiling point of water when 1.50 g of
dezoksy [38]

Answer:

0.00735°C

Explanation:

By seeing the question, we can see the elevation in boiling point with addition of BaCl₂ in water

⠀

\textsf {While} \:  \sf  {\Delta T_b}  \: \textsf{expression is used} \\  \textsf {for elevation of boiling point}

⠀

⠀

<u>The</u><u> </u><u>elevation</u><u> </u><u>in</u><u> </u><u>boiling</u><u> </u><u>point</u><u> </u><u>is</u><u> </u><u>a</u><u> </u><u>phenomenon</u><u> </u><u>in</u><u> </u><u>which</u><u> </u><u>there</u><u> </u><u>is</u><u> </u><u>increase</u><u> </u><u>in</u><u> </u><u>boiling</u><u> </u><u>point</u><u> </u><u>in</u><u> </u><u>solution</u><u>,</u><u> </u><u>when</u><u> </u><u>the</u><u> </u><u>particular</u><u> </u><u>type</u><u> </u><u>of</u><u> </u><u>solute</u><u> </u><u>is</u><u> </u><u>added</u><u> </u><u>to</u><u> </u><u>pure</u><u> </u><u>solvent</u><u>.</u>

⠀

⠀

\sf  \large \underline{The \:  formula \: to \:  be  \: used \:  in \:  this \:  question \:  is}  \\   \boxed{T_b = i \times  K_b \times  m}

⠀

⠀

Where 'i' is van't hoff factor which represents the ratio of observed osmotic pressure and the value to be expected.

and 'i' is 3 (as given in the question)

⠀

'Kb' is molal boiling point constant. And it's value is 0.51°C/mol(given in question)

⠀

'm' represent the molality of solution. Molatity is no. of moles of solution present in 1kg of solution.

⠀

⠀

<u>To</u><u> </u><u>find</u><u> </u><u>molality</u><u>,</u><u> </u><u>we</u><u> </u><u>have</u><u> </u><u>to</u><u> </u><u>divide</u><u> </u><u>no</u><u>.</u><u> </u><u>of</u><u> </u><u>moles</u><u> </u><u>of</u><u> </u><u>solute</u><u> </u><u>by</u><u> </u><u>weight</u><u> </u><u>of</u><u> </u><u>solution</u>

⠀

While first we need to no. of moles

\sf \implies no. \: of \: moles =  \frac{weight \: of \: solute}{molar \: mass \: of \: solute}  \\  \\ \implies \sf no. \: of \: moles =  \frac{1.5}{208.23}  \\  \\  \sf \implies  no. \: of \: moles = 0.0072

⠀

⠀

<u>Now</u><u>,</u><u> </u><u>we</u><u> </u><u>will</u><u> </u><u>find</u><u> </u><u>molality</u>

⠀

\sf  \hookrightarrow molality =  \frac{no.\: of \: moles}{weight \: of \: solution}  \\  \\  \sf  \hookrightarrow molality =  \frac{0.072}{1.5}  \\  \\  \sf  \hookrightarrow molality = 0.048 \: mol {kg}^{ - 1}

⠀

⠀

\textsf{ \large{ \underline{Now substituting the required values}}}

⠀

\sf \longmapsto \Delta T_b = 3  \times 0.51  \times 0.0048 \\  \\ \\     \boxed{ \tt{ \longmapsto \Delta T_b =0.00735{ \degree}C}}

⠀

⠀

⠀

<u>Henceforth</u><u>,</u><u> </u><u>the</u><u> </u><u>change</u><u> </u><u>in</u><u> </u><u>boiling</u><u> </u><u>point</u><u> </u><u>is</u><u> </u><u>0</u><u>.</u><u>0</u><u>0</u><u>7</u><u>3</u><u>5</u><u>°</u><u>C</u><u>.</u>

Does the size of an object<br> affect its rate of fall?
Vitek1552 [10]

Answer:

The acceleration of the object equals the gravitational acceleration. The mass, size, and shape of the object are not a factor in describing the motion of the object. So all objects, regardless of size or shape or weight, free fall with the same acceleration

Increasing the temperature, as noted in the graph, increases the rate of this chemical reaction. What is the relationship betwee
Soloha48 [4]

Answer: (C) Although the average kinetic energy of the colliding substances increases, this has no influence on activation energy.

Explanation:

After increasing the temperature of the reaction , the rate of the chemical reaction increases due to increase in the average kinetic energy of the particles. At increased temperature high proportions of particles can react making the reaction faster.
