Answer:
A decrease in temperature would decrease kinetic energy, therefore decreasing collisions possible.
Explanation:
A gas at a fixed volume is going to have collisions automatically. If you decrease the temperature (same thing as decreasing kinetic energy) you are cooling down the molecules in the container which gives them less energy and "relaxes" them. This decrease in energy causes them to move around much slower and causing less collisions, at a much slower rate. In a perfect world, these collisions do not slow down the molecule but we know that they do, just a very very small unmeasurable amount.
The problem is incomplete. However, there can only be two probable questions for this problem. First, you can be asked the individual partial pressures of each gas. Second, you can be asked the volume occupied by each gas. I can answer both cases for you.
1.
Let's assume ideal gas.
Pressure for N₂: 2 bar*0.4 = 0.8 bar
Pressure for CO₂: 2 bar*0.5 = 1 bar
Pressure for CH₄: 2 bar*0.1 = 0.2 bar
2. For the volume, let's find the total volume first.
V = nRT/P = (1 mol)(8.314 J/mol-K)(30 +273 K)/(2 bar*10⁵ Pa/1 bar)
V = 0.0126 m³
Hence,
Volume for N₂: 0.0126 bar*0.4 = 0.00504 m³
Volume for CO₂: 0.0126*0.5 = 0.0063 m³
Volume for CH₄: 0.0126*0.1 = 0.00126 m³
Answer:
A base.
Explanation:
Basic solutions give OH- ions.
Equation: MgOH2 (s) --> MgO (s) + H2O (g)
And it's already balanced.
I had chemistry this semester too.
