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

Carbon naturally occurs in two forms: diamond and graphite. Why do these two forms have very different properties?
Nookie1986 [14]
The differences in the properties of diamond and graphite is as a result of how their particles are arranged in space. This space arrangement leads to distinct crystal structures for the two compounds. In diamond, the carbon atoms are arranged in tetrahedral shape while in graphite the carbon atoms arrayed in planes.
 Hope this helps :)

Answer: similar, energy

Explanation: (edmentum answer) Several of the elements in period 5 have electron configurations with only one electron in the 5s sublevel. That suggests that the next sublevel that electrons typically fill, 4d, is not much higher in energy.

When 74.8g of alanine C3H7NO2 are dissolved in 1450.g of a certain mystery liquid X, the freezing point of the solution is 8.30°
dlinn [17]

Answer: The mass of potassium bromide that must be dissolved in the same mass of X to produce the same depression in freezing point is 58.2 grams

Explanation:

Depression in freezing point is given by:

\Delta T_f=i\times K_f\times m

\Delta T_f=T_f^0-T_f=8.30^0C = Depression in freezing point

i= vant hoff factor = 1 (for non electrolyte)

K_f = freezing point constant =  

m= molality = \frac{\text{mass of solute}}{\text{molar mass of solute}\times \text{weight of solvent in kg}}=\frac{74.8g\times 1000}{1450g\times 89.09g/mol}=0.579

8.30^0C=1\times K_f\times 0.579

K_f=14.3^0C/m

Let Mass of solute (KBr) = x g

8.3^0C=1.72\times 14.3\times \frac{xg\times 1000}{119g/mol\times 1450g}

x=58.2g

Thus the mass of potassium bromide that must be dissolved in the same mass of X to produce the same depression in freezing point is 58.2 grams
