A gas mixture contains HBr, NO2, and C2H6 at STP.If a tiny hole is made in the container, which gas will effuse fastest?Which ga

s molecules have the highest average kinetic energy at this temperature?

Explanation:

Molar mass of HBr = 81 g/mol

Molar mass of nitrogen dioxide gas = 46 g/mol

Molar mass of ethane = 30 g/mol

Graham's Law states that the rate of effusion or diffusion of gas is inversely proportional to the square root of the molar mass of the gas. The equation given by this law follows the equation:

\text{Rate of diffusion}\propto \frac{1}{\sqrt{\text{Molar mass of the gas}}}

So, the gas with least molar mass will effuse out fastest from the container and that is ethane gas.

The formula for average kinetic energy is:

K.E=\frac{3}{2}kT

where,

k = Boltzmann’s constant = 1.38\times 10^{-23}J/K

T = temperature = 273.15 K ( at STP)

As we can see from the formula that kinetic energy depends upon only temperature of the gas molecule.

So, from this we can say that all the gas molecules have the same average kinetic energy at this temperature.

A sample of aluminum is placed in a 25-ml graduated cylinder containing 10.0 ml of water. the level of the water rises to 18.0 m
OLga [1]
To determine the mass of the sample, first find the volume difference after and before the aluminum was placed, the volume change is equal to the volume of the submerged object, in this case aluminum.

Then knowing volume of aluminum and the density of it, we can solve for the mass.

D = m/v

Dv = m

2.7 g/ml • 8 ml = 21.6 grams.

Why is it important for scientists to review and repeat the work of other scientists
guapka [62]

Answer:

Accuracy

Explanation:

It is important for scientists to review the work of other scientists, so they can be sure there are no mistakes or lack of judgement. They repeat to compare results to make hypotheses.

Amanda [17]

Answer:

32 g Cu

Explanation:

1 mol Cu    -> 63.5 g

0.5 mol Cu ->x

x=(0.5 mol *63.5 g)/1 mol      x= 32 g Cu
