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

Calculate the number of milliliters of 0.710 M Ba(OH)2 required to precipitate all of the Mn2+ ions in 161 mL of 0.796 M KMnO4 s
USPshnik [31]

<u>Answer:</u> The volume of barium hydroxide is 183 mL.

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the moles of cadmium nitrate, we use the equation:

\text{Molarity of the solution}=\frac{\text{Moles of solute}}{\text{Volume of solution (in L)}}       .....(1)

Molarity of MnSO_4 = 0.796 M

Volume of MnSO_4 = 161 mL = 0.161 L   (Conversion factor: 1 L = 1000 mL)

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

0.796mol/L=\frac{\text{Moles of }MnSO_4}{0.161L}\\\\\text{Moles of }MnSO_4=0.13mol

The chemical equation for the reaction of manganese sulfate and barium hydroxide follows:

MnSO_4(aq.)+Ba(OH)_2(aq.)\rightarrow Mn(OH)_2(s)+BaSO_4(aq.)

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

1 mole of manganese sulfate reacts with 1 mole of barium hydroxide.

So, 0.13 moles of manganese sulfate will react with = \frac{1}{1}\times 0.13=0.13mol of barium hydroxide

Now, calculating the volume of barium hydroxide by using equation 1, we get:

Moles of barium hydroxide = 0.13 moles

Molarity of barium hydroxide = 0.710 M

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

0.710mol/L=\frac{0.13mol}{\text{Volume of barium hydroxide}}\\\\\text{Volume of barium hydroxide}=0.183L

Converting this into milliliters, we use the conversion factor:

1 L = 1000 mL

So, 0.183L=0.183\times 1000=183mL

Hence, the volume of barium hydroxide is 183 mL.

At standard temperature and pressure, what volume does 0.5 mol of CO2 occupyAt standard temperature and pressure, what volume do
Zigmanuir [339]
<span>C. 11.2 L There are several different ways to solve this problem. You can look up the density of CO2 at STP and work from there with the molar mass of CO2, but the easiest is to assume that CO2 is an ideal gas and use the ideal gas properties. The key property is that a mole of an idea gas occupies 22.413962 liters. And since you have 0.5 moles, the gas you have will occupy half the volume which is 22.413962 * 0.5 = 11.20698 liters. And of the available choices, option "C. 11.2 L" is the closest match. Note: The figure of 22.413962 l/mole is using the pre 1982 definition of STP which is a temperature of 273.15 K and a pressure of 1 atmosphere (1.01325 x 10^5 pascals). Since 1982, the definition of STP has changed to a temperature of 273.15 K and a pressure of exactly 10^5 pascals. Because of this lower pressure, one mole of an ideal gas will have the higher volume of 22.710947 liters instead of the older value of 22.413962 liters.</span>

When N2(g) reacts with H2(g) to form NH3(g), 92.2 kJ of energy are evolved for each mole of N2(g) that reacts. Write a balanced
Naddika [18.5K]

Answer:

N₂ + 3H₂ → 2NH₃   ΔH = - 92.2KJ

Explanation:

Let's write out the chemical equation between Nitrogen and Hydrogen to Form Ammonia.

Nitrogen + Hydrogen = Ammonia

N₂ + H₂ → NH₃

A Thermochemical Equation is a balanced stoichiometric chemical equation that includes the enthalpy change, ΔH.

The balanced stoichiometric chemical equation is given as;

N₂ + 3H₂ → 2NH₃

92.2 kJ of energy are evolved for each mole of N2(g) that reacts. And from the equation, 1 mole of N2 reacts.

The enthalpy change, ΔH = - 92.2KJ. The negative sign is because heat is being evolved.

The balanced thermochemical equation;

N₂ + 3H₂ → 2NH₃   ΔH = - 92.2KJ
