To compare how different types of soil absorbed water, Christian set up an experiment. He poked equal numbers and sizes of holes

into the bottoms of three plastic cups. He filled one cup with sand, one with potting soil, and left one empty. He placed each cup in a stand over a beaker. Christian poured 400 mL (milliliters) of water into each of the cups. He then measured the amount of water collected in the beakers beneath each cup at 1 minute intervals for 3 minutes. What is the control in this experiment? Group of answer choices

A gas with a volume of 8 L at a temperature of 473K is switched to a new container with a temperature of 350K. If the pressure r
Digiron [165]

Answer:

The new  volume is 5.92 L,  which is approximately 6 L

Explanation:

As the gas temperature increases, the molecules move faster and take less time to reach the walls of the container. This means that the number of crashes per unit of time will be greater. That is, there will be an increase (for an instant) in the pressure inside the container and the volume will increase.

So Charles's Law is one of the gas laws that relates the volume and temperature of a certain amount of gas at constant pressure and says that:

  • If the temperature increases the volume increases
  • If the temperature decreases the volume decreases

Mathematically this is expressed by:

\frac{V}{T}=k

When you want to study two different states, an initial and a final one of a gas, this law is expressed by:

\frac{V1}{T1} =\frac{V2}{T2}

In this case:

  • V1: 8 L
  • T1: 473 K
  • V2: ?
  • T2: 350 K

Replacing:

\frac{8 L}{473K} =\frac{V2}{350K}

Solving:

V2=350K*\frac{8L}{473K}

V2=5.92 L

<u><em>The new  volume is 5.92 L,  which is approximately 6 L</em></u>

Which of these is a ball and stick model?
N76 [4]

The ball and stick model of C subscript 2 H subscript 4 is described as Option C: Each C has 2 H's connected to it each by 1 black.

This means the same as the 3D structure image of ethylene (C2H4) and means 2 C's connected by 2 black lines.

line.

The structure of ethylene is made up of 2 carbon atoms and 4 hydrogen atoms.

The carbon atoms are located at the middle position and the hydrogen atom surrounding the carbon atoms with two hydrogen atoms connected to each carbon atom. The two black lines connecting the carbons are the double bonds.
