Which of the following changes to a pipe would increase the conductance by a factor of 12?

C. Tripling the length and reducing the radius by a factor of 2 is the change to a pipe would increase the conductance by a factor of 12.

<u>Explanation:</u>

As we know that the resistance is directly proportional to the length of the pipe and it is inversely proportional to the cross sectional area of the pipe.

So it is represented as,

R∝ l /A [ area is radius square]

So k is the proportionality constant used.

R = kl/A

Conductance is the inverse of resistance, so it is given as,

C= 1/R.

R₁ = kl₁ / A₁

R₂ = kl₂/A₂

R₂/R₁ = 1/12 [∵ conductance is the inverse of resistance]

        = l₂A₁ / l₁A₂

If we chose l₁/l₂= 3 and A₂/A₁= 4 So R₂/R₁= 1/3×4 = 1/12

So tripling the length and reducing the radius by a factor of 2 would increase the conductance by a factor of 12.

In calculating the equilibrium constant for a reaction, the coefficients of the chemical equation are used as exponents for the
BartSMP [9]

Answer: The given statement is TRUE.

Explanation:

An equilibrium reaction is one in which rate of forward reaction is equal to the rate of backward reaction.

Equilibrium constant is defined as the ratio of the product of the concentration of products to the product of the concentration of reactants each raised to their stochiometric coefficient.

For example for the given equilibrium reaction;

2H_2O(g)\leftrightharpoons 2H_2(g)+O_2(g)

K_{eq}=\frac{[H_2]^2[O_2]}{[H_2O]^2}

Thus the given statement that in calculating the equilibrium constant for a reaction, the coefficients of the chemical equation are used as exponents for the factors in the equilibrium expression is True.

Which of the following are strongly hydrogen bonded in the liquid phase? A) nitrilesB) esters C) secondary amides D) acid chlori
-Dominant- [34]

Answer: Option (C) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Chemical formula of a secondary amide is R'-CONH-R, where R and R' can be same of different alkyl or aryl groups. Here, the hydrogen atom of amide is attached to more electronegative oxygen atom of the C=O group.

Therefore, the hydrogen atom will be more strongly held by the electronegative oxygen atom. As a result, there will be  strongly hydrogen bonded in the liquid phase of secondary amide.

Whereas chemical formula of nitriles is RCN, ester is RCOOR' and acid chlorides are RCOCl. As no hydrogen bonding occurs in any of these compounds because hydrogen atom is not being attached to an electronegative atom.

Thus, we can conclude that secondary amides are strongly hydrogen bonded in the liquid phase.
