Answer:

Barometric pressure is 942.3 cm of column of water.

Explanation:

We can measure barometric pressure by measuring the height h of a column of fluid (this column of fluid exerts the same pressure as the column of air of which we are measuring pressure) using the following formula:

P = \rho*g*h\\

Where ρ is the density of the fluid used and g the acceleration of gravity.

Knowing that both the column of mercury (to match units, we know that 698 mmHg are the same as 69.8 cmHg) and the column of water are representing the same pressure, we can match expressions and find h for the column of water:

\rho_{Hg} *g*h_{Hg} =\rho_{Water} *g*h_{Water}\\ \\h_{Water}=\frac{rho_{Hg} *g*h_{Hg}}{\rho_{Water} *g} = \frac{13.5g/mL *9.8m/s^{2} *69.8cm}{1g/mL *9.8m/s^{2}}=942.3 cmH_{2}O

A large weather balloon filled with helium has a volume of 7.00 x 102 L at STP. Which expression should be used to find the mass
balandron [24]

Answer:

mass of Helium = mole of Helium x Molarmass of Helium

Explanation:

Mole of Helium = volume of Helium/ 22.4dm^3/mol

                          = 7.00 x 10^2/22.4

                          = 31.25mol

Mass of Helium = mole of Helium x Molarmass of Helium

                           = 31.25mol x 4g/mol

                           = 125g

Where do reactions in a solid generally take place?
Sholpan [36]

Answer:

It's D.  On the surface of the solid.

Explanation:

If the reactant is a solid, the surface area of the solid will impact how fast the reaction goes. This is because the two types of molecule can only bump into each other at the liquid solid interface, i.e. on the surface of the solid. So the larger the surface area of the solid, the faster the reaction will be.
