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

taurus [48]

Answer:

<h2>10 g</h2>

Explanation:

The mass of a substance when given the density and volume can be found by using the formula

mass = Density × volume

From the question we have

mass = 2 × 5

We have the final answer as

<h3>10 g</h3>

A chemical equation is shown:
taurus [48]

 The number  of  oxygen atoms  are 6  atoms


  <u><em>Explanation</em></u>

According to the law of mass conservation the number of  reactant atoms   is equal to  number  of product atoms.

For  given equation  to  obey  the  law of mass  conservation  it need to be balanced as below

4 Al + 3 O₂ → 2 Al₂O₃

Al₂O₃  is the  product,therefore the number of oxygen atom

= coefficient  in front  of   Al₂O₃   ×  subscript  of O

=2 x 3  = 6 atoms

"calculate the h+ in a solution that has a ph of 8.73"
alexdok [17]
The  H+   in  a  solution  that  has  a Ph  of  8.73   is   calculate    as  follows

Ph is always =   -  log  (H+)

H+  =    10^-Ph

H+  is  therefore  =  10 ^-  8.73
H+  =  1.86  x10^-9  M
