Answer:

Here's what I get.

Explanation:

Two factors:

1. Higher accelerating voltages

Both types use a beam of accelerated electrons as a source of illumination.

Resolution depends on the wavelength of the electron beam. The shorter the wavelength, the smaller the objects you can "see."

SEMs usually use acceleration voltages up to 30 kV, while TEMs can set them as high 300 kV. Thus, the electron wavelengths in TEMs are shorter by a factor of 10.

2. Less spherical aberration

Spherical aberration degrades the quality of the image. It decreases as wavelength decreases, so you can push the magnification higher with a TEM without losing image quality.

Answer:

Cells are the "building blocks for all living things." Without cells, we couldn't survive. Cells do many important things. Some of the things they can do are taking in food nutrients, frame our bodies, and change the food nutrients into energy.

Answer:

The answer to your question is given below

Explanation:

To convert from Particles to grams, one must have a clear understanding of Avogadro's hypothesis. From the Avogadro's hypothesis, we can easily convert from mole to particles and to grams.

Avogadro's hypothesis gives us a background understanding that 1 mole of any substance contains 6.02x10^23 particles. With this in mind we can easily convert particles to grams and grams to particles.

Now consider the following example:

1. How many particles are there in 4g of carbon?

Solution:

From Avogadro's hypothesis, 1 mole of any substance contains 6.02x10^23 particles. This implies that 1 mole of carbon contains 6.02x10^23 particles.

1 mole of carbon = 12g

Now we can say that 12g of carbon contains 6.02x10^23 particles.

If 12g of carbon contains 6.02x10^23 particles,

then 4g of carbon will contain = (4x6.02x10^23) /12 = 2.01x10^23 particles.

The next example will teach us how to convert from particles to grams..

2. What mass of helium contains 4.2x10^24 particles.

Solution:

According to Avogadro's hypothesis,

1 mole of He contains 6.02x10^23 particles.

1 mole of He = 4g

We can thus, say that 4g of He contains 6.02x10^23 particles.

1f 4g of He contains 6.02x10^23 particles,

Then Xg of He contains 4.2x10^24 Particles i.e

Xg of He = (4x4.2x10^24)/(6.02x10^23)

Xg of He = 27.91g

Therefore, 27.91g of He contains 4.2x10^24 Particles

With the above illustrations I believe you have understood how to convert from grams to particles and from particles to grams.

the pressure in a sealed plastic container is 108 kPa at 41 degrees Celsius. What is the pressure when the temperature drops to

Katarina [22]

<u>Answer:</u> The new pressure will be 101.46 kPa.

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the new pressure, we use the equation given by Gay-Lussac Law. This law states that pressure is directly proportional to the temperature of the gas at constant volume.

The equation given by this law is:

$\frac{P_1}{T_1}=\frac{P_2}{T_2}$
