Hello!

Explanation:

↓↓↓↓↓↓↓

Density is the amount of mass in a given volume. It's a derived unit of measure. It is equal to mass divided by volume. It's measured in units such as grams per cubic centimeter and grams per milliliter. Density is the ratio of mass to volume. Density is a physical property of an object. It is degree of compactness of a substances. Relative density is used to separate solids, liquids, and gases. The gas in the container rises to the top because it has the least density. The liquids separate into individual layers based on their relative densities. The least dense liquid is on top. The most dense liquid is on bottom. The solids sink to the bottom of the container because they have the greatest density.

Hope this helps!

A chemist fills a reaction vessel with 9.20 atm nitrogen monoxide (NO) gas, 9.15 atm chlorine (CI) gas, and 7.70 atm nitrosyl ch

ivanzaharov [21]

Answer:

The reactions free energy $\Delta G = -49.36 kJ$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The pressure of (NO) is $P_{NO} = 9.20 \ atm$

The pressure of (Cl) gas is $P_{Cl} = 9.15 \ atm$

The pressure of nitrosly chloride (NOCl) is $P_{(NOCl)} = 7.70 \ atm$

The reaction is

$2NO_{(g)} + Cl_2 (g)$ ⇆ $2 NOCl_{(g)}$

From the reaction we can mathematically evaluate the $\Delta G^o$ (Standard state free energy ) as

$\Delta G^o = 2 \Delta G^o _{NOCl} - \Delta G^o _{Cl_2} - 2 \Delta G^o _{NO}$

The Standard state free energy for NO is constant with a value

$\Delta G^o _{NO} = 86.55 kJ/mol$

The Standard state free energy for $Cl_2$ is constant with a value

$\Delta G^o _{Cl_2} = 0kJ/mol$

The Standard state free energy for $NOCl$ is constant with a value

$\Delta G^o _{NOCl} =66.1kJ/mol$

Now substituting this into the equation

$\Delta G^o = 2 * 66.1 - 0 - 2 * 87.6$

$= -43 kJ/mol$

The pressure constant is evaluated as

$Q = \frac{Pressure \ of \ product }{ Pressure \ of \ reactant }$

Substituting values

$Q = \frac{(7.7)^2 }{(9.2)^2 (9.15) } = \frac{59.29}{774.456}$

$= 0.0765$

The free energy for this reaction is evaluated as

$\Delta G = \Delta G^o + RT ln Q$

Where R is gas constant with a value of $R = 8.314 J / K \cdot mol$

T is temperature in K with a given value of $T = 25+273 = 298 K$

Substituting value

$\Delta G = -43 *10^{3} + 8.314 *298 * ln [0.0765]$

$= -43-6.36$

$\Delta G = -49.36 kJ$

Calculate the speed of light in an unknown substance whose index of refraction is 1.65. Would you expect the light to bend towar

Anna71 [15]

(a) The speed of light in the unknown substance is determined 1.82 x 10⁸ m/s.

(b) The light will bend away from the normal since speed of light in air is not equal to speed of light in the substance.

<h3>What is the speed of light?</h3>

The speed of light passing from air into the substance is calculated as follows;

refractive index = speed of light in air / speed of light in the substance

speed of light in the substance = speed of light in air/refractive index

speed of light in the substance = (3 x 10⁸) / (1.65)

speed of light in the substance = 1.82 x 10⁸ m/s

Thus, the light will bend away from the normal since speed of light in air is not equal to speed of light in the substance.

Tju [1.3M]

Answer: Chemicals like acids and bases are harmful and must be neutralized before draining.

Explanation:

A strong acid or strong base is required to be diluted or neutralized before it is discarded in the drain as if is discarded without diluting and neutralization it can spill and splash from sink or drain and can harm people in chemistry lab, moreover the fumes of the discarded chemical on spilling can cause respiratory tract burning and can even cause fire hazard so it must be converted into less harmful form and then must be drained.
