Experimentation is the best way to obtain knowledge, because it is the only actual factual thing in the options

The correct answer is option E, that is, there are no living things on the moon.  

Scientific knowledge is created via experimentation and methodical observation on measurable objective variables. Scientific knowledge is supported on evidence. The statement, that is, there are no living things on the moon, is a fact based on various scientific evidence. It is not based on personal beliefs, however, in direct observation of proof. Thus, it is the true sentence regarding a scientific statement.  

The other statements exhibit no supporting evidence, thus, one cannot consider them as scientific.

Calculate ΔrG∘ at 298 K for the following reactions.CO(g)+H2O(g)→H2(g)+CO2(g)2-Predict the effect on ΔrG∘ of lowering the temper
KonstantinChe [14]

Answer:

1) ΔG°r(298 K) = - 28.619 KJ/mol

2) ΔG°r will decrease with decreasing temperature

Explanation:

  • CO(g) + H2O(g) → H2(g) + CO2(g)

1) ΔG°r = ∑νiΔG°f,i

⇒ ΔG°r(298 K) = ΔG°CO2(g) + ΔG°H2(g) - ΔG°H2O(g) - ΔG°CO(g)

from literature, T = 298 K:

∴ ΔG°CO2(g) = - 394.359 KJ/mol

∴ ΔG°CO(g) = - 137.152 KJ/mol

∴ ΔG°H2(g) = 0 KJ/mol........pure substance

∴ ΔG°H2O(g) = - 228.588 KJ/mol

⇒ ΔG°r(298 K) = - 394.359 KJ/mol + 0 KJ/mol - ( - 228.588 KJ/mol ) - ( - 137.152 KJ7mol )

⇒ ΔG°r(298 K) = - 28.619 KJ/mol

2) K = e∧(-ΔG°/RT)

∴ R = 8.314 E-3 KJ/K.mol

∴ T = 298 K

⇒ K = e∧(-28.619/(8.314 E-3)(298) = 9.624 E-6

⇒ ΔG°r = - RTLnK

If T (↓) ⇒ ΔG°r (↓)

assuming T = 200 K

⇒ ΔG°r(200 K) = - (8.314 E-3)(200)Ln(9.624E-3)

⇒ ΔG°r (200K) = - 19.207 KJ/mol < ΔG°r(298 K) = - 28.619 KJ/mol

What is the equation for determining gas pressure?
Advocard [28]

Answer:

Explanation:

First, let's review the ideal gas law, PV = nRT. In this equation, 'P' is the pressure in atmospheres, 'V' is the volume in liters, 'n' is the number of particles in moles, 'T' is the temperature in Kelvin and 'R' is the ideal gas constant (0.0821 liter atmospheres per moles Kelvin)

The oxidation state of phosphorus is +3 in
IgorC [24]

Answer:

b) Phosphorus acid

Explanation:

To distinguish the type of acid of phosphorus with the oxidation state of +3, we need to be familiar with the chemical formula of each of the compounds:

    Orthophosphoric acid             H₃PO₄

    Phosphorus acid                       H₃PO₃

    Metaphosphoric acid               HPO₃

    Phyrophosphoric acid​               H₄P₂O₇

Now that we know the formula of the given compounds, the algebraic sum of all the oxidation numbers of all atoms in a neutral compound is zero:

Only phosphorus acid yielded an oxidation state of +3 for phosphorus in the compound.

  H₃PO₃:

   we know the oxidation state of H = +1

                                                          O = -2

         The oxidation state of P is unknown. We can express this as an equation:

                3(+1) + P + 3(-2) = 0

                    3 + P -6 = 0

                          P-3 = 0

                          P = +3
