Why earth not flat and why we live in this country not yours

Answer:

Earth is not flat because the spheroidical shape provides a more effective shape in terms of exposed surface area for absorbing and radiating radiation, and also for a relatively more uniform gravity pull on different points on its surface which might not be so for a flat surface.

You live in your country, not mine because you have evolved over time to be more adapted to living in your own kind of envoirment. Members of a certain species (like you and me as humans) have been spread to maximize the survivability of their species compared to if they were clustered to a particular place.

A 1.00 liter container holds a mixture of 0.52 mg of He and 2.05 mg of Ne at 25oC. Determine the partial pressures of He and Ne

Ymorist [56]

Answer:

pHe = 3.2 × 10⁻³ atm

pNe = 2.5 × 10⁻³ atm

P = 5.7 × 10⁻³ atm

Explanation:

Given data

Volume = 1.00 L

Temperature = 25°C + 273 = 298 K

mHe = 0.52 mg = 0.52 × 10⁻³ g

mNe = 2.05 mg = 2.05 × 10⁻³ g

The molar mass of He is 4.00 g/mol. The moles of He are:

0.52 × 10⁻³ g × (1 mol / 4.00 g) = 1.3 × 10⁻⁴ mol

We can find the partial pressure of He using the ideal gas equation.

P × V = n × R × T

P × 1.00 L = 1.3 × 10⁻⁴ mol × (0.082 atm.L/mol.K) × 298 K

P = 3.2 × 10⁻³ atm

The molar mass of Ne is 20.18 g/mol. The moles of Ne are:

2.05 × 10⁻³ g × (1 mol / 20.18 g) = 1.02 × 10⁻⁴ mol

We can find the partial pressure of Ne using the ideal gas equation.

P × V = n × R × T

P × 1.00 L = 1.02 × 10⁻⁴ mol × (0.082 atm.L/mol.K) × 298 K

P = 2.5 × 10⁻³ atm

The total pressure is the sum of the partial pressures.

P = 3.2 × 10⁻³ atm + 2.5 × 10⁻³ atm = 5.7 × 10⁻³ atm

What mass of KNO3 would be needed to produce 18.4 liters of oxygen gas, measured at 1.50 x 10^3 kPa and 15 degrees Celsius?

Brut [27]

Answer:-

2328.454 grams

Explanation:-

Volume V = 18.4 litres

Temperature T = 15 C + 273 = 288 K

Pressure P = 1.5 x 10^ 3 KPa

We know universal Gas constant R = 8.314 L KPa K-1 mol-1

Using the relation PV = nRT

Number of moles of oxygen gas n = PV / RT

Plugging in the values

n = (1.5 x 10^3 KPa ) x ( 18.4 litres ) / ( 8.314 L KPa K-1 mol-1 x 288 K)

n = 11.527 mol

Now the balanced chemical equation for this reaction is

2KNO3 --> 2KNO2 + O2

From the equation we can see that

1 mol of O2 is produced from 2 mol of KNO3.

∴ 11.527 mol of O2 is produced from 2 x 11.527 mol of KNO3.

= 23.054 mol of KNO3

Molar mass of KNO3 = 39 x 1 + 14 x 1 + 16 x 3 = 101 grams / mol

Mass of KNO3 = 23.054 mol x 101 gram / mol

= 2328.454 grams

Which of these statement(s) is/are true about a balloon filled with 1.00 mol N2 (g) at STP?

lara [203]

Answer:

I. The balloon has a volume of 22.4L

III. The balloon contains 6.022x10^23 molecules.

Explanation:

At stp, it has been proven that 1mole of a gas occupy 22.4L.

Therefore, option (i) is correct.

The molar mass N2 = 14.01 x 2 = 28.02g/mol

Number of mole of N2 = 1 mole

Mass of N2 =..?

Mass = mole x molar Mass

Mass of N2 = 1 x 28.02 = 28.02g.

The mass content of the balloon is 28.02g, therefore, option (ii) is wrong.

From Avogadro's hypothesis, we understood that 1 mole of any substance contains 6.02x10^23 molecules. This implies that 1 mole of N2 also contains 6.02x10^23 molecules

Therefore, option (iii) is correct.

The correct options to the question are:

Option i and option iii

Consider the molecules: scl2, f2, cs2, cf4, and brcl. select the choice where the bonds of the molecules are arranged in order o

elena-s [515]

The polarity of a bond depends on the difference in electronegativities of the atoms involved in bonding. Greater this difference, greater is the polarity

1) In SCl2 we have the S-Cl bond

Electronegativity values: S = 2.5, Cl = 3

Difference = 3.0 -2.5 = 0.5

2) In F2 we have the F-F bond

Electronegativity value: F = 4.0

Difference = 4.0-4.0 = 0

3) In CS2 we have the C-S bond

Electronegativity value: C = 2.5, S = 2.5

Difference = 2.5 -2.5 = 0

4) In CF4 we have the C-F bond

Electronegativity values: C = 2.5, F = 4.0

Difference = 4.0 -2.5 = 1.5

5) In BrCl we have the Br-Cl bond

Electronegativity values: Br = 2.8, Cl = 3

Difference = 3.0 -2.8 = 0.2

Therefore, the increasing order of polarity is

F2 = CS2 < BrCl < SCl2 < CF4
