On a flight to Europe, you notice that the packages of peanuts are puffed up. Why? 1. The jet is over-pressurized at high altitu

des, thus causing the gas inside the packages to expand. 2. The air in the jet is approximately ten times hotter than on the ground, thus increasing the temperature of the gas in the packages. 3. The peanuts have greater velocities at high altitudes, thus causing the peanuts to exert more force on the packaging. 4. The packages are puffed up on the ground due to overinflation with helium. This type of packaging provides extra buoyancy for aircrafts. 5. They were packaged at a higher pressure on the ground, thus causing the gas inside the packages to expand in the sky where the jet is at a lower pressure.

Answer:

The correct answer is;

5. They were packaged at a higher pressure on the ground, thus causing the gas inside the packages to expand in the sky where the jet is at a lower pressure.

Explanation:

According to Boyle's law, the pressure of a given mass of gas is inversely proportional to it volume at constant temperature

P₁·V₁ = P₂·V₂

At the factories, the peanuts are packaged at atmospheric conditions whereby P₁ = 1 atm, however, the pressure of the air in the atmosphere decreases with altitude as such the pressure in the airplane jet is about a fraction of hat on the ground by about a factor of 0.7.

Therefore P₂ = 0.7 atm and we have

V₂ = P₁·V₁/P₂ = 1 atm×V₁/0.7 atm = 1.43·V₁

The volume increases at high altitudes

In which instance is a gas most likely to behave as an ideal gas?A.) At low temperatures, because the molecules are always far a
kiruha [24]

Answer:

C.) At room temperature and pressure, because intermolecular interactions are minimized and the particles are relatively far apart.

Explanation:

For gas to behave as an ideal gas there are 2 basic assumptions:

  • The intermolecular forces (IMF) are neglectable.
  • The volume of the gas is neglectable in comparison with the volume of the container.

<em>In which instance is a gas most likely to behave as an ideal gas?</em>

<em>A.) At low temperatures, because the molecules are always far apart.</em> FALSE. At low temperatures, molecules are closer and IMF are more appreciable.

<em>B.) When the molecules are highly polar, because IMF are more likely.</em> FALSE. When IMF are stronger the gas does not behave as an ideal gas.

<em>C.) At room temperature and pressure, because intermolecular interactions are minimized and the particles are relatively far apart.</em> TRUE.

<em>D.) At high pressures, because the distance between molecules is likely to be small in relation to the size of the molecules.</em> FALSE. At high pressures, the distance between molecules is small and IMF are strong.

You are given 25.00 mL of an acetic acid solution of unknown concentration. You find it requires 35.75 mL of a 0.1950 M NaOH sol
oee [108]

Answer:

0.2788 M

1.674 %(m/V)

Explanation:

Step 1: Write the balanced equation

NaOH + CH₃COOH → CH₃COONa + H₂O

Step 2: Calculate the reacting moles of NaOH

0.03575 L \times \frac{0.1950mol}{L} = 6.971 \times 10^{-3} mol

Step 3: Calculate the reacting moles of CH₃COOH

The molar ratio of NaOH to CH₃COOH is 1:1.

6.971 \times 10^{-3} molNaOH \times \frac{1molCH_3COOH}{1molNaOH} = 6.971 \times 10^{-3} molCH_3COOH

Step 4: Calculate the molarity of the acetic acid solution

M = \frac{6.971 \times 10^{-3} mol}{0.02500L} =0.2788 M

Step 5: Calculate the mass of acetic acid

The molar mass of acetic acid is 60.05 g/mol.

6.971 \times 10^{-3} mol \times \frac{60.05g}{mol} =0.4186 g

Step 6: Calculate the percentage of acetic acid in the solution

\frac{0.4186g}{25.00mL}  \times 100\% = 1.674 \%(m/V)
