Answer: Total pressure = 7293.2 torr or 9.60 atm

Explanation:

<em>Total pressure = partial pressure of nitrogen + partial pressure of oxygen</em>

The partial pressure due to nitrogen is determined using the equation of Gay-Lussac's law: <em>P₁/T₁=P₂/T₂</em>

P₁ = 760 torr = 1atm, T₁ = 28∘C = (273+28)K = 301k, P₂ = ?, T₂ = 310∘C =(310+273)K = 583K

P₂ = P₁ T₂/ T₁

P₂ = 760 * 583 / 301 = 1472.03 torr

The pressure due to Oxygen gas produced is calculated thus:

Balanced equation of the decomposition of Ag₂O at s.t.p. is as follows;

2Ag₂O ----> 4Ag + O₂(g)

2 moles of Ag₂O produces 1 mole of O₂

molar mass of Ag₂O = (2*108 + 16)g = 232g/mol

molar volume of gas at s.t.p. = 22.4L

2*232g i.e. 464g of Ag₂O produces 22.4L of O₂

5.57g of Ag₂O will produce 5.57g*22.4L/464g = 0.269L or 269mL of O₂

Using the General gas equation  P₁V₁/T₁=P₂V₂/T₂

P₁ = 1atm = 760 torr, V₁ = 269mL, T₁=273K, P₂ = ?, V₂= 75mL, T₂ = 583K

P₂ = P₁V₁T₂/V₂T₁

P₂ = 760*269*583 / 75*273

P₂ = 5821.17 torr

Total pressure = (1472.03 + 5821.17) torr

Total pressure = 7293.2 torr or 9.60 atm

A generic weak acid with formula HA has a Ka = 2.76 x 10-8. Calculate the Kb for the conjugate base of the acid.
Reika [66]

Answer:

3.62x10⁻⁷ = Kb

Explanation:

The acid equilibrium of a weak acid, HX, is:

HX + H₂O ⇄ X⁻ + H₃O⁺

Where Ka = [X⁻] [H₃O⁺] / [HX]

And basic equilibrium of the conjugate base, is:

X⁻ + H₂O ⇄ OH⁻ + HX

Where Kb = [OH⁻] [HX] / [X⁻]

To convert Ka to Kb we must use water equilibrium:

2H₂O ⇄ H₃O⁺ + OH⁻

Where Kw = 1x10⁻¹⁴ = [OH⁻] [H₃O⁺]

Thus, we can obtain:

Kw = Ka*Kb

Solving for Kb:

Kw / Ka = Kb

1x10⁻¹⁴ /  2.76x10⁻⁸ =

3.62x10⁻⁷ = Kb

To what Kelvin temperature must a balloon
snow_tiger [21]

Answer:

T_2=261.46\ K

Explanation:

It is given that,

Original temperature, T_1=323^{\circ}C=596.15\ K

Original volume, V_1=2.85\ L

We need to find the temperature if the volume of the balloon to be shrink to 1.25 L.

According to Charles law, at constant pressure, V\propto T

It would means, \dfrac{V_1}{V_2}=\dfrac{T_1}{T_2}

T₂ = ?

T_2=\dfrac{V_2T_1}{V_1}\\\\T_2=\dfrac{1.25\times 596.15}{2.85}\\\\T_2=261.46\ K

So, the new temperature is 261.46 K.

The movement of the liquid in a thermometer shows changes in temperature. An increase in temperature
zhuklara [117]

Answer:

When heated, the molecules of the liquid in the thermometer move faster, causing them to get a little further apart. This results in movement up the thermometer. When cooled, the molecules of the liquid in the thermometer move slower, causing them to get a little closer together.
