Explanation:

Relation between pressure of water and its droplet is as follows.

           ln (\frac{p}{p_{o}}) = \frac{2 \gamma M}{r \rho RT}

where,   p = pressure of droplet

          p_{o} = water pressure in given temperature

          \gamma = 7.99 \times 10^{-3}

           M = Molecular Weight in Kg/Mol (0.018 for water)

            r = radius in meters

     \rho = density of water in Kg/m^{3} (1000 kg/m^{3})

           R = ideal gas constant (8.31)

           T = temperature in Kelvin

(a)   We will calculate the value of p as follows.

           p = e^{\frac{2 \gamma M}{r \rho RT}} \times p_{o}

              = e^{\frac{2 \times 0.07199 \times 0.018}{1.7 \times 10^{-8} \times 1000 \times 8.31 \times 298 K} \times 25.2

              = 26.8 torr

(b)  And, vapor pressure of spherical water droplets of radius 2.0 \mu m or 2 \times 10^{-6} m

             p = e^{\frac{2 \gamma M}{r \rho RT}} \times p_{o}

              = e^{\frac{2 \times 0.07199 \times 0.018}{2 \times 10^{-6} \times 1000 \times 8.31 \times 298 K} \times 25.2

              = 25.2 torr

A gas starts at a volume of 23 L and a pressure of 1.23 atm. What is the new pressure if you
Anna71 [15]

Answer:

<h2>1.89 atm</h2>

Explanation:

The new volume can be found by using the formula for Boyle's law which is

P_1V_1 = P_2V_2

Since we are finding the new volume

V_2 =  \frac{P_1V_1}{P_2}  \\

From the question we have

V_2 =  \frac{1.23 \times 23}{15}  =  \frac{28.29}{15}  \\  = 1.886

We have the final answer as

<h3>1.89 atm</h3>

Hope this helps you

The recommended daily allowance (rda of calcium is 1.2 g. calcium carbonate contains 12.0% calcium by mass. how many grams of ca
defon
1) Calcium carbonate contains 40.0% calcium by weight.
M(CaCO₃)=100.1 g/mol
M(Ca)=40.1 g/mol
w(Ca)=40.1/100.1=0.400 (40.0%)!

2) Mass fraction of this is excessive data.

3) The solution is:

m(Ca)=1.2 g

m(CaCO₃)=M(CaCO₃)*m(Ca)/M(Ca)

m(CaCO₃)=100.1g/mol*1.2g/40.1g/mol=3.0 g

If nitrogen (N) has 2 naturally occurring isotopes, nitrogen-14 (78.3%) and nitrogen-16 (21.7%), what is its average r.a.m.?
leva [86]

Answer:

14.434 r.a.m.

Explanation:

  • The atomic mass of an element is a weighted average of its isotopes in which the sum of the abundance of each isotope is equal to 1 or 100%.

∵ The atomic mass of N = ∑(atomic mass of each isotope)(its abundance)

∴ The atomic mass of N = (atomic mass of N-14)(abundance of N-14) + (atomic mass of N-16)(abundance of N-16)

atomic mass of N-14 = 14.0 r.a.m, abundance of N-14 = percent of N-14/100 = 78.3/100 = 0.783.

atomic mass of N-16 = 16.0 r.a.m, abundance of N-16 = percent of N-16/100 = 21.7/100 = 0.217.

∴ The atomic mass of N = (atomic mass of N-14)(abundance of N-14) + (atomic mass of N-16)(abundance of N-16) = (14.0 r.a.m)(0.783) + (16.0 r.a.m)(0.217) = 14.434 r.a.m.
