Answer:

15.95

Explanation:

This question is a modification of the calculation of  the empirical formula of a compound given its percent composition and atomic weights of the elements in the compound.

Here we are given the formula and the percent composition, so we know that there are 4 atoms of E per 2 atoms of N so lets solve using the information given.

In 100 grams of the binary compound we have

30.46 g N

69.54 g E

The number of moles is the mass divided by atomic weight:

mol N = 30.46 g / A.W N = 30.46 g / 14.00 g/mol = 2.18 mol N

mol E = 65.54 g / A.W E

Thus,

4 mol E/ 2 mol N = ( 69.54 g/ A.W E ) / 2.18

2  A.E = 65.54 g / 2.18  ⇒ A.W E = 69.54 g / ( 2 x 2.18 ) = 15.94 g

So the A.W is 15.94 g/mol which is close  the atomic weight of O.

Charra [1.4K]

Answer:

The volume of the gas is determined, which will allow you to calculate the temperature.

Explanation:

According to Charles law; the volume of a given mass of an ideal gas is directly proportional to its temperature at constant pressure.

This implies that, when the volume of an ideal gas is measured at constant pressure, the temperature of the ideal gas can be calculated from it according to Charles law.

Hence in the Ideal Gas Law lab, the temperature of an ideal gas is measured by determining the volume of the ideal gas.

The data on Climate change is as explained below-

Explanation:

Climate change is the ominous “hard truth” concurrently. However, it is not the first time that climate change is happening. In geological history, we find plenty of evidence of climate change.  

The most important and famous of all such changes is the climate change that occurred during the Mesozoic era leading to the extinction of Dinosaurus. The reason behind these all climate changes was different. However, the climate change we are witnessing at present has something extra to all this natural stuff.

The present climate change is fuelled by anthropogenic activities at large. Large scale emission of greenhouse gases possibly from burning of fossil fuels ever since the Industrial revolutions in the late 18th century has altered the chemical composition of atmospheric gases. In addition to the use of fossil fuels other activities such as agriculture, coal-based power plants, deforestation and other such activities have been instrumental in degrading the serene balance between different atmospheric gases.

The evidence of the present climate change can be gauged in-

  1. The rise in global average temperature-Earth’s mean temperature has risen by around 1° C ever since the 19th century. 2017 proved to be the warmest year in the record.
  2. Oceans have been net absorber of the heat. This has led to the warming up of oceans. This severely hampers and impact marine flora and fauna
  3. Deglaciation- the increasing temperature has manifested in the form of shrinking ice-sheets. Large icebergs are calving and thus has some serious long-term impact for the sustenance of mankind.
  4. Rise in the mean sea level- The sea level has risen by almost 10 inches since last century. This increase is all set to increase in future thus endangering the lives and livelihood of the coastal communities.

All the leading personalities of the time including the ex-president of the US Mr Barak Obama emphasised the importance of climate change and urged the global community to tackle it at earliest. In his words, he mentioned, “No other challenge poses as great a threat to the future generation as the climate change”. In addition to Mr Obama, noted climate activist Greta Thunberg described the climate change to be the greatest crisis to the humanity that it has ever faced.

Therefore, it can be safely argued that it’s urgent to talk and act tough on climate change. Climate change has transitioned into a multi-headed monster capable enough to devastate the entire mankind. It has done this earlier and sure to carry it further on.
