Answer: The density of 0.50 grams of gaseous carbon stored under 1.50 atm of pressure at a temperature of -20.0 °C is 0.867 g/L.

Explanation:

d = m/V, where d is the density, m is the mass and V is the volume.

We have the mass m = 0.50 g, so we must get the volume V.

To get the volume of a gas, we apply the general gas law PV = nRT

P is the pressure in atm (P = 1.5 atm)

V is the volume in L (V = ??? L)

n is the number of moles in mole, n = m/Atomic mass, n = 0.50/12.0 = 0.416 mole.

R is the general gas constant (R = 0.082 L.atm/mol.K).

T is the temperature in K (T(K) = T(°C) + 273 = -20.0 + 273 = 253 K).

Then, V = nRT/P = (0.416 mol)(0.082 L.atm/mol.K)(253 K) / (1.5 atm) = 0.576 L.

Now, we can obtain the density; d = m/V = (0.50 g) / (0.576 L) = 0.867 g/L.

What is the resultant pressure if 1.7 mol of ideal gas at 273 K and 2.79 atm in a closed container of constant volume is heated

dedylja [7]

Answer: The resultant pressure is 3.22 atm

Explanation:

Gay-Lussac's Law: This law states that pressure is directly proportional to the temperature of the gas at constant volume and number of moles.

$P\propto T$ (At constant volume and number of moles)

$\frac{P_1}{T_1}=\frac{P_2}{T_2}$

where,

$P_1$ = initial pressure of gas = 2.79 atm

$P_2$ = final pressure of gas = ?

$T_1$ = initial temperature of gas = 273K

$T_2$ = final temperature of gas = 315 K

$\frac{2.79}{273}=\frac{P_2}{315}$

$P_2=3.22atm$

Thus the resultant pressure is 3.22 atm

24.3 2 An artifact classified as seeds, found in a site at Newlands Cross, Ireland, is found to have a 14C radioactivity of 0.10

Rina8888 [55]

Answer:

Age ≅ 7500 years

Explanation:

All radioactive decay is 1st order kinetics and described by the expression

A = A₀e^-kt => t = ln(A/A₀) / -k

k = 0.693 / t(half life) = (0.693 / 5730)yrs⁻¹ = 1.21 x 10⁻⁴ yrs⁻¹

t = Age = [ln(0.103/0.255) / - 1.21 x 10⁻⁴] yrs = 7500 years

The mechanism for producing a concentrated urine involves all of the following except

avanturin [10]

Answer:

The correct answer is "obligatory water reabsorption in the proximal convoluted tubule".

Explanation:

The mechanism for producing concentrated urine cannot include the obligatory reabsorption of water in the proximal convoluted tubule since this process is part of the nephron, the system that filters the blood. Glucose and amino acids are reabsorbed almost entirely, as are approximately 70% of filtered potassium and 80% of bicarbonate.

Indicate whether each of the following statements is correct or incorrect.1)Every Bronsted-Lowry acid is also a Lewis acid2)Ever

Hunter-Best [27]

Answer:

1) correct

2) incorrect

3) correct

4)incorrect

Explanation:

1) A Lewis acid is a substance that accepts a nonbonding pair of electrons.

A Bronsted-Lowry acid is a substance that donates a proton H⁺

Since the donation of a proton involves the acceptance of a pair of electrons, every Bronsted-Lowry acid is also a Lewis acid.

2)A Lewis acid not necessarily needs to have a proton to be donated.

3) Conjugated acids of weak bases are strong acids and conjugated acids of strong bases are weak acids.

4)K⁺ comes from a strong base, therefore is does not have an acidic behaviour.

Standard Reduction Potentials in Aqueous Solution at 25 °C

7nadin3 [17]

Answer:

Hope this helps:)

Explanation:

The values for the table entries are reduction potentials, so lithium at the top of the list has the most negative number, indicating that it is the strongest reducing agent. The strongest oxidizing agent is fluorine with the largest positive number for standard electrode potential.

Elemental fluorine, for example, is the strongest common oxidizing agent.

Lithium metal is therefore the strongest reductant (most easily oxidized) of the alkali metals in aqueous solution. The standard reduction potentials can be interpreted as a ranking of substances according to their oxidizing and reducing power
