1. A weather balloon is filled with helium on a cool morning when the temperature is 13.0°C. The temperature is predicted to rea

ch 35.0°C around 4 PM. When first inflated, the balloon has a volume of 12.9 L and is at 238 kPa – these are the standard volume and pressure for this type of weather balloon. Based on the balloon design, it can only withstand pressures up to 252 kPa.
How many moles of helium are in this hot air balloon?
Will the balloon burst when the temperature reaches 35.0 C?

Please someone help, Im mostly stumped by R. I know it is 8.314 L kPa/mole K but i dont know how to calculate that please help

Answer:

Number of moles: n = 1.29 moles

If the temperature reaches 35°C which is 308.15 K the balloon will burst

Explanation:

Using the formula: PV = nRT  

Where P is pressure in atm, V is volume in L, n is the number of moles, R is the gas constant which can be 8.314 J/mol K or 0.08206 atm L/mol K, and T is temperature in K.

In order to know which R to use, just take a look at the units. If you are given the pressure in atm, then use 0.08206 atm L/mol K. If you are given energy in Joules instead, then use 8.314 J/mol K.

Problem solution:

1 atm = 101.325 kPa, so 238 kPa is equal to 2.349 atm

1°C is 274.15 K, so 13°C is 286.15 k

Using the formula PV = nRT

2.349 atm * 12.9 L = n * 0.08206 atm L/mol K * 286.15 k  

n = (30.302 atm L) / (23.481 atm L/mol)

n = 1.29 moles

If the temperature reaches 35°C which is 308.15 K the balloon will burst:

P = nRT/V

P = (1.29 moles * 0.08206 atm L/mol K * 308.15 k) / 12.9 L

P = 2.529 atm = 256.21 kPa

What is the theoretical yield of Calcium if we begin with 12.6 grams of Aluminium?
AlladinOne [14]

The question is incomplete, here is the complete question:

The given chemical reaction is:

2Al+3Cu(NO_3)_2\rightarrow 3Cu+2Al(NO_3)_3

What is the theoretical yield of Calcium if we begin with 12.6 grams of Aluminium?

<u>Answer:</u> The theoretical yield of copper is 44.48 grams

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the number of moles, we use the equation:

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}     .....(1)

Given mass of aluminium = 12.6 g

Molar mass of aluminium = 27 g/mol

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

\text{Moles of aluminium}=\frac{12.6g}{27g/mol}=0.467mol

The given chemical equation follows:

2Al+3Cu(NO_3)_2\rightarrow 3Cu+2Al(NO_3)_3

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

2 moles of aluminium produces 3 moles of copper

So, 0.467 moles of aluminium will produce = \frac{3}{2}\times 0.467=0.7005mol of copper

Now, calculating the mass of copper  from equation 1, we get:

Molar mass of copper = 63.5 g/mol

Moles of copper = 0.7005 moles

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

0.7005mol=\frac{\text{Mass of copper}}{63.5g/mol}\\\\\text{Mass of copper}=(0.7005mol\times 63.5g/mol)=44.48g

Hence, the theoretical yield of copper is 44.48 grams

Structures of compounds people use every day are shown. From which group of unsaturated hydrocarbons is each derived? 2 carbons
Savatey [412]

The group of unsaturated hydrocarbons which 2 carbons are double bonded together, with H bonded to the left, and C H 2 bonded below left, above right, and below right is derived from <u>Alkenes</u>

<h3>What are organic compounds?</h3>

Organic compounds are compounds which contains carbon and hydrogen

Some few classes or organic compounds or hydrocarbons are as follows:

  • Alkanes
  • Alkenes
  • Alkynes
  • Alkanols
  • Alkanoic acid
  • Ketones
  • Esters

So therefore, the group of unsaturated hydrocarbons which 2 carbons are double bonded together, with H bonded to the left, and C H 2 bonded below left, above right, and below right is derived from <u>Alkenes</u>

Explain the difference between personal opinion/interpretation and verified observations
LuckyWell [14K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Personal opinion/interpretation are usually firsthand explanation to a phenomenon or problem set. They are usually drawn from logical reasoning and deduction about some event. Most times, they are non-scientific in nature in that they are non-methodical and do not rely on the critical thinking precepts scientific studies are hinged on.

Verified observations are usually drawn from carefully planned experiments. From the results of the experiment, critical decisions can be made.
