What metal is oxidized in a non - rechargeable flashlight battery ? Enter the chemical symbol of the element

1 answer:

4 0

Batteries are everywhere. The modern world is dependent on these portable sources of energy, which are found in everything from mobile devices to hearing aids to cars.

But despite their prevalence in people's daily lives, batteries often go overlooked. Think about it: Do you really know how a battery works? Could you explain it to someone else?

Here's a rundown of the science behind the energy source powering smartphones, electric cars, pacemakers and so much more.

For a different reaction, the plot of the reciprocal of concentration versus time in seconds was linear with a slope of 0.056 M-

Bond [772]

Answer:

$C_t=0.165M$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Slope $K=0.056 M-1 s -1$

initial Concentration $C_1=2.2M$

Time $t=100$

Generally the equation for Raw law is mathematically given by

$\frac{1}{C}_t=kt+\frac{1}{C}_0$

$\frac{1}{C}_t=0.056*100+\frac{1}{2.2}_0$

$C_t=0.165M$

What is the volume of 0.80 grams of o2 gas at stp? (5 points) group of answer choices 0.59 liters 0.56 liters 0.50 liters 0.47 l

Vladimir [108]

Answer:

0.56L

Explanation:

This question requires the Ideal Gas Law: $PV=nRT$ where P is the pressure of the gas, V is the volume of the gas, n is the number of moles of the gas, R is the Ideal Gas constant, and T is the Temperature of the gas.

Since all of the answer choices are given in units of Liters, it will be convenient to use a value for R that contains "Liters" in its units: $R=0.0821\frac{L\cdot atm}{mol\cdot K}$

Since the conditions are stated to be STP, we must remember that STP is Standard Temperature Pressure, which means $T=273.15K$ and $P=1atm$

Lastly, we must calculate the number of moles of $O_2(g)$ there are. Given 0.80g of $O_2(g)$ , we will need to convert with the molar mass of $O_2(g)$ . Noting that there are 2 oxygen atoms, we find the atomic mass of O from the periodic table (16g/mol) and multiply by 2: $32g\text{ }O_2=1mol\text{ }O_2$

Thus, $\frac{0.80g \text{ }O_2}{1} \frac{1mol\text{ }O_2}{32g\text{ }O_2}=0.25mol\text{ }O_2=n$

Isolating V in the Ideal Gas Law:

$PV=nRT$

$V=\frac{nRT}{P}$

...substituting the known values, and simplifying...

$V=\frac{(0.025 mol \text{ }O_2)(0.0821\frac{L\cdot atm}{mol \cdot K} )(273.15K)}{(1atm)}$

$V=0.56L \text{ } O_2$

So, 0.80g of $O_2(g)$ would occupy 0.56L at STP.

Pierce conducts an experiment in which waves collide in a way that the energy increases, which means that has occurred

Vikki [24]

<h2>Answer:</h2>

It means the waves collides and constructive interference occurred.

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

If the two waves coming from the opposite direction collide with each other, there are two way of their interference.

Constructive interference: An interference which results in the increase in energy. And it is when crust of a wave comes on the crust of second wave.
Destructive interference: An interference which results in decrease in energy of the resulting wave and colliding waves cancel the result of each other.

Hence in experiment there will be constructive interference.
