Your starting point here will be the ideal gas law equation

P

- the pressure of the gas

V

- the volume it occupies

n

- the number of moles of gas

R

- the universal gas constant, usually given as

0.0821

atm

⋅

L

mol

⋅

K

T

- the absolute temperature of the gas

Now, you will have to manipulate this equation in order to find a relationship between the density of the gas,

ρ

, under those conditions for pressure and temperature, and its molar mass,

M

M

.

You know that the molar mass of a substance tells you the mass of exactly one mole of that substance. This means that for a given mass

m

of this gas, you can express its molar mass as the ratio between

m

and

n

, the number of moles it contains

Similarly, the density of the substance tells you the mass of exactly one unit of volume of that substance.

This means that for the mass

m

of this gas, you can express its density as the ratio between

m

and the volume it occupies

A tank holds 6.90 m3 of water. What is the volume in ft3? (3.28 ft = 1 m, Remember significant figures, but this answer does not
AleksAgata [21]

Volume of tank = 6.9 m^{3} (given)

Since, 1 m = 3.28 ft

So,  

1 m^{3} = 35.287 ft^{3}

For 6.9 m^{3}:

6.9\times 35.287 ft^{3} = 243.4803 ft^{3}

The significant rule for multiplication, states that the number of significant figures in the answer obtained by multiplication is determined by the value with the lowest number of significant digits.

Since, the minimum number of decimal places in the above multiplication operation is 1 so, the final result must be upto 1 decimal place only.

243.4803 ft^{3} \simeq 243.5 ft^{3}

Hence, volume in ft^{3} is 243.5.

Is nac1 (table salt) dissolve with water a chemical or physical change quizet?
tia_tia [17]
Physical. When you simply desolve something with water, to don't actually change it. This action can be undone.
An example of a chemical reaction is when the cells within completely change. You you burn wood, you can't go back in time and un-burn it. Does that make sense?

natka813 [3]

Answer:

E

Explanation:

Inorganic chemicals are present both in ground and surface water. Inorganic chemicals are found in soil from which they may contaminate runoff and eventual find their way into surface water bodies. Also, inorganic ions may be leached into underground aquifers and contaminate or underground water .
