Please Help! Let P and V represent the pressure and volume of Xe(g). If a piston is used to reduce the volume of the gas to V/2

Elza [17]

1) 2P

2) Average speed does not change

Explanation:

1)

To solve the first part of the problem, we can use Boyle's Law, which states that:

"For a fixed mass of an ideal gas kept at constant temperature, the pressure of the gas is inversely proportional to its volume"

Mathematically:

$pV=const.$

where

p is the pressure of the gas

V is its volume

For the Xe gas in this problem we can write

$p_1 V_1 = p_2 V_2$

where:

$p_1 = P$ is the initial pressure

$V_1=V$ is the initial volume

$V_2=\frac{V}{2}$ is the final volume

Solving for p2, we find the final pressure:

$p_2=\frac{P V_1}{V_2}=\frac{pV}{V/2}=2P$

So, the pressure has doubled.

2)

The average speed of the atoms/molecules in the gas is given by the formula

$v_{rms}=\sqrt{\frac{3RT}{M}}$

where

R is the gas constant

T is the absolute temperature (in Kelvin) of the gas

M is the molar mass of the gas

$v_{rms}$ is known as rms speed of the particles in the gas

From the formula, we see that the speed of the atoms in the gas depends only on the temperature of the gas.

In the Xe(g) gas in this problem, the temperature is kept constant; therefore, since nothing changes in the formula, this means that the average speed also does not change.

What is the energy in joules of one photon of microwaveradiation with a wavelength 0.122m?

pentagon [3]

Answer: The energy of photon is $162.93\times 10^{-26}J$

Explanation:

The relation between energy and wavelength of light is given by Planck's equation, which is:

$E=\frac{hc}{\lambda}$

where,

E = energy of the light = ?

h = Planck's constant = $6.626\times 10^{-34}Js$

c = speed of light = $3\times 10^8m/s$

$\lambda$ = wavelength of photon = 0.122 m

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$E=\frac{(6.626\times 10^{-34}Js)\times (3\times 10^8m/s)}{0.122m}\\\\E=162.93\times 10^{-26}J$

Hence, the energy of photon is $162.93\times 10^{-26}J$

What geopolitical process returns carbon to the atmosphere in the from of carbon dioxide

musickatia [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

Recall that plants use water, atmospheric carbon dioxide, and energy from the sun to build their organic framework through photosynthesis. Therefore, plants draw down atmospheric carbon dioxide as part of their life habit. When plants die, the organic matter is oxidized and carbon dioxide is returned to the atmosphere.

The reaction below is at equilibrium at a temperature T. There are four possible changes listed. Select all the changes that wil

katovenus [111]

Answer:

The correct answer is B.

Explanation:

Heterogeneous equilibrium is that in which reagents and products are present in more than one phase.

When the reaction is carried out in a closed container, three equilibrium phases are present: solid magnesium oxide, solid magnesium sulfate and gaseous sulfur trioxide.

Hence, the equilibrium contant is given by:

$K=\frac{[MgSO_4]}{[MgO][SO_3]} =\frac{1}{[SO_3]}$

The concentrations in the equilibrium equation are the relationships of the real concentrations between the concentrations in the standard state. Since the standard state of a pure solid is the pure solid itself, the ratio of concentrations for a pure solid is equal to one.

Now, we analyse each statement:

I) As the reaction is endothermic (ΔH>0), increasing the temperature shifts the balance to the right because excess heat will be used to form more products.

II) Increasing the volume will decrease the concentration of SO₃, so Q>K and then this shifts the balance to the left.

III) As it is a heterogeneous balance, adding MgO will not affect the balance.

IV) Removing SO3 will decrease its concentration and therefore the reaction equilibrium will shift to the left.
