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

What is the result of crystals boiling the impure product with too much solvent and then cooling on ice?
VMariaS [17]

Answer: Option (c) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

It is known that when we tend to dilute an impure product with too much of solvent then it will lead to dissolution of the solute. As a result, the chances of formation of crystal reduces.

And, when we increase the temperature then there will occur increase in the number of collisions between the solute and solvent molecules.

Hence, solubility of the solute also increases with increase in temperature,  placing it on ice bath will further reduce the crystal formation, hence no crystal should be formed in the reaction.

Thus, we can conclude that the result of crystals boiling the impure product with too much solvent and then cooling on ice is that no crystals are produced.

The value of Zeff for a valence electron in an atom of silicon is?
lutik1710 [3]

Zeff is the effective nuclear charge wherein, Z resembles the number of protons in the nucleus while S corresponds to the number of non-valence electrons.

Zeff = Z - S

Silicon has 14 protons; its electron configuration is [Ne] 3s2 3p2. Its non-valence electrons is in the n = 1 and n =2 shells. There are 2 electrons in n = 1 and 8 in n = 2, so there are a total of 10 non-valence electron.

<span><span>Z<span>eff</span></span>= 14−10= 4</span>

So, the answer is 4.
