) Any gas exerts a pressure against its surroundings. For example, if you put more gas in a balloon, it exerts more pressure and

expands the balloon. Describe what causes the pressure in a gas, in terms of the fact that molecules of gas are moving.

kolezko [41]3 years ago
8 0

Explanation:

As we know that molecules of a gas move far away from each other because they are held by weak Vander waal forces. So, when a balloon is filled by a gas then molecules of a gas strike at its walls leading to more number of collisions.

This will also lead to more expansion of the balloon. As we know that pressure is the force exerted n per unit area of a substance or object.

Thus, more is the kinetic energy of the molecules of the gas more will be the force exerted by them. Hence, more will be the pressure exerted.

KengaRu [80]

Answer:

The molecular formula of the compound :C_4H_6O_2

Explanation:

The empirical formula of the compound =C_2H_3O

The molecular formula of the compound =C_{2n}H_{3n}O_n

The equation used to calculate the valency is :

n=\frac{\text{molecular mass}}{\text{empirical mass}}

We are given:

Mass of molecular formula = 86 g/mol

Mass of empirical formula = 43 g/mol

Putting values in above equation, we get:

n=\frac{86g/mol}{43g/mol}=2

The molecular formula of the compound :

C_{2\times 2}H_{3\times 2}O_2=C_4H_6O_2

Which of the following affects cell potential?
Slav-nsk [51]

Answer:

the standard cell potential value

Explanation:

For every cell, we can calculate its standard electrode potential from the table of standard electrode potentials listed in many textbooks.

However, from Nernst's equation;

Ecell= E°cell - 0.0592/n log Q

Hence the standard cell potential (E°cell) affects the value of the calculated cell potential Ecell from Nernst's equation as stated above.
