The study of the inorganic world.
1 point energy should be the answer
Answer:
0.911 atm
Explanation:
In this problem, there is no change in volume of the gas, since the container is sealed.
Therefore, we can apply Gay-Lussac's law, which states that:
"For a fixed mass of an ideal gas kept at constant volume, the pressure of the gas is proportional to its absolute temperature"
Mathematically:
where
p is the gas pressure
T is the absolute temperature
For a gas undergoing a transformation, the law can be rewritten as:
where in this problem:
is the initial pressure of the gas
is the initial absolute temperature of the gas
is the final temperature of the gas
Solving for p2, we find the final pressure of the gas:
Answer: The correct explanation is 2.
Explanation: The warm air is less dense (it expands) and thus it is lighter than the cold air so it will rise up to the floor. Therefore, when you place the heater on the floor it will warm the cold air which would then rise and be replaced by more cold air which would again get warm and rise and so on until the room is heated. This means that the correct explanation is 2.
On the other hand, if you put the heater at the ceiling, it will warm the cold air near the ceiling which would stay up there (it is lighter than the cold air under it). This means that the only way for the heat to spread from this ceiling level warm air to the lower levels is via conduction which is slow.
