1. A sample consisting of 1.0 mol CaCO3 (s) was heated to 800oC when it is decomposed. The heating was carried out in a containe

r fitted with a piston that was initially resting on the solid. Calculate the work done during complete decomposition at 1.0 atm. What work would be done if instead of having a piston, the container was open to the atmosphere?

Expansion work against constant external pressure: w=-pex Δ Δ V 3. The attempt at a solution . I tried following that. Because Vf>>Vi, and Vf=nRT/pex, then w=-pex x nRT/pex=-nRT (im assuming n is number of moles of CO2?). 1 mole of CaCO3 makes 1 mole of CO2, so plugging in numbers, I get 8.9kJ, although I dont use the 1 atm pressure at all

What happens to an electromagnetic wave as it passes from space to matter?
alina1380 [7]

Answer:

When an electromagnetic wave passes from space to matter, some part of the energy is absorbed by the matter and it increases its energy. The wave may reflect and some part may pass through the matter depending on the amount of energy they have. The amplitude of the wave decreases if some parts of it are reflected.

If the moon were twice as far from years as it is now the following would be true
zubka84 [21]
The question is incomplete.

The distance between the Moon and Earth influences: 1) the attractive gravitational force between them, 2) the tides, 3) the eclipses, 4) the period of each full turn of the moon around the Earth.

Assuming the question refers to the gravitational attraction, we must use the fact that, as per, Newton's Universal Gravitaional Law, the attractive force between the two bodies is inversely related to the square distance that separates them.

Then, if the Moon were twice as far, the gravitational pull would be one fourth (1/4) of actual pull.

in a longitudinal wave, the motion of the disturbance is in what direction relative to the wave motion?
VARVARA [1.3K]

Answer:

Longitudinal waves have the same direction of vibration as their direction of travel. This means that the movement of the medium is in the same direction as the motion of the wave.

How does pressure affect surface tension
tatyana61 [14]

the effect of pressure on surface tension can be attributed in part to absorption of gas at the surface of the liquid and in part to an intrinsic decrease in density of the liquid in the neighborhood of the surface.

In the case of liquids , Owing to contact forces between the edge of the surface and the vessel, the surface acquires a curvature, and if the liquid rises up at the edges where it meets the vessel, the pressure will be less in the liquid than in the air, for points just below and just above the surface. The vessel exerts an upward force on the liquid. This is simply a matter of looking at the directions of forces acting, knowing that the surface is under tension.

The resultant of 2 forces at right angles is 100 lbs. If one of the forces makes an angle of 30 degress with the resultant, comp
Ipatiy [6.2K]

Answer:

86.6 lbs

Explanation:

Let the force is X.

Resultant force, R = 100 lbs

Other force is Y. Angle between resultant force and force X is 30°.

According to the diagram

Cos30=\frac{X}{R}

0.866=\frac{X}{100}

X = 86.6 lbs

Other force Y

Sin30=\frac{X}{R}

0.5=\frac{Y}{100}

Y = 50 lbs
