Answer: Molecules of gas are usually far apart and can be compressed unlike molecules of liquids.

Explanation:

The molecules of gases are usually far apart, moving freely and randomly, occupying extra space in the containing vessel. Hence, when compressed to become closely packed, gases have lower volume.

However, unlike gases, the molecules of a liquid are restricted, move less freely and occupy no extra space. Hence, liquids cannot be compressed, and their volume remains the same in their containing vessel.

At a festival, spherical balloons with a radius of 280. Cm are to be inflated with hot air and released. The air at the festival

evablogger [386]

Answer:

8608.18 balloons

Explanation:

Hello! Let's solve this!

Data needed:

Enthalpy of propane formation: 103.85kJ / mol

Specific heat capacity of air: 1.009J · g ° C

Density of air at 100 ° C: 0.946kg / m3

Density of propane at 100 ° C: 1.440kg / m3

First we will calculate the propane heat (C3H8)

3000g * (1mol / 44g) * (103.85kJ / mol) * (1000J / 1kJ) = 7.08068 * 10 ^ 6 J

Then we can calculate the mass of the air with the heat formula

Q = mc delta T

m = Q / c delta T = (7.08068 * 10 ^ 6 J) / (1.009J / kg ° C * (100-25) ° C) =

m = 93566.96kg

We now calculate the volume of a balloon.

V = 4/3 * pi * r ^ 3 = 4/3 * 3.14 * 1.4m ^ 3 = 11.49m ^ 3

Now we calculate the mass of the balloon

mg = 0.946kg / m3 * 11.49m ^ 3 = 10.87kg

The amount of balloons is

93566.96kg / 10.87kg = 8608.18 balloons

Determine the mass of 2.4 x 10^24 atoms of gold?

Scorpion4ik [409]

Answer:

Mass = 785.9 g

Explanation:

Given data:

Atoms of gold = 2.4 × 10²⁴ atoms

Mass of gold = ?

Solution:

First of all we will convert the number of atoms into moles.

2.4 × 10²⁴ atoms × 1 mol/ 6.02 × 10²³ atoms

number of moles = 3.99 mol

Now we will determine the mass of gold.

Mass = number of moles × molar mass

Mass = 3.99 mol × 196.97 g/mol

Mass = 785.9 g
