A blimp floats because it is filled with helium gas (He) which has a smaller molecular mass than air (in g/mol). Helium can lift

objects because it exhibits a buoyant force equal to the difference in grams/mol. At room conditions (P = 1 atm, T = 25 degrees Celsius) what volume of helium would lift a pound?(A) 611 L(B) 37.3 L(C) 444 L(D) 2777 L

Answer:

444 L

Explanation:

According to Archimedes the buoyancy force  is equal to the weight of the displaced substance. In this case, the displaced substance is Air. So to calculate the lifting power of Helium, start with the weight of air in volume

Since the Helium itself has weight, we need to use the difference in density between air and helium.

We know that the density of air is 1.2 kg/m^3

Density of Helium is 0.1787  kg/m^3

To lift a object of 1 pound  which is equal to 0.453 kg we need \frac{0.453}{1.2-0.1787}=0.444 m^3 helium There is 1000 liters in a m^3

So the required volume of helium= 0.444×1000=444 L

snow_lady [41]

Answer:

The higher the temperature, the more soluble most ionic solids are in water

As you cool a saturated solution from high temperature to low temperature, solids start to crystallize out of solution if you achieve a supersaturated solution.

If you raise the temperature of a saturated solution, you can (usually) add more solute and make the solution even more concentrated.

Explanation:

For many ionic solids, solubility in water increases with increase in the temperature of the solution.

This implies that increasing the temperature allow more solute to dissolve in the solvent, supersaturation may be achieved by so doing. As the solution is cooled, the solid crystalizes out of solution hence the answers above.

An experiment was conducted to see which metal pot would be better for cooking food quickly. The table below shows how quickly s
KengaRu [80]

Answer : It is a conclusion.

Explanation:

Conclusion: It is a judgement or decision which can be attained by reasoning.

From the observation table given we can conclude that :

  • Aluminum ,bronze and steel took 27,45 and 80 seconds to melt small piece of wax respectively which means that more time will be required by them to transfer heat to the food while cooking. Hence,  food will take more time to cook in them.
  • Copper took less time of 15 seconds to melt the small piece of wax in comparison to other metal pots which means that it is a good conductor of heat in comparison to other. Hence, copper pot would be better for cooking food quickly.

After analyzing the observations and results in an experiment conclusion was made that copper pots are best for cooking foods.

Describe the differences between bonding in an ionic compound and bonding in a covalent molecule.
Fudgin [204]

a covalent bond and an ionic bond. An ionic bond if formed from the transfer of electrons from the outer shell of atoms. ... An example of this is NaCl, where the sodium atom becomes Na+ due to the loss of electrons, and the chlorine atom becomes the negatively charged chloride (Cl-).
