While camping up at Haloooo Mountain (5,500 feet above sea level), it generally takes Sandy about the same amount of time to boi

l water for her soup as it takes to make a sandwich. This week, Sandy is camping at a trail that is only about 200 feet above sea level. Sandy is very hungry and wants something to eat immediately. Should she make the soup or sandwich? Which would be ready more quickly and why?

She should make soup. When you are way above sea level, the atmospheric pressure decreases. Boiling starts when the vapor pressure of the liquid is the same with the atmospheric pressure. This would mean that water boils at a much lower temperature than the usual 100deg C. So it would take longer for the components in the soup to cook compared to when it is cooked on the foot of the mountain.

The solubility of two slightly soluble salts of M^2+ , MA and MZ_2, are the same, 4 x 10^â4 mol/L.
LekaFEV [45]

Answer:

a) MZ₂

b) They have the same concentration

c) 4x10⁻⁴ mol/L

Explanation:

a) The solubility (S) is the concentration of the salt that will be dissociated and form the ions in the solution, the solubility product constant (Kps) is the multiplication of the concentration of the ions elevated at their coefficients. The concentration of the ions depends on the stoichiometry and will be equivalent to S.

The salts solubilization reactions and their Kps values are:

MA(s) ⇄ M⁺²(aq) + A⁻²(aq) Kps = S*S = S²

MZ₂(aq) ⇄ M⁺²(aq) + 2Z⁻(aq) Kps = S*S² = S³

Thus, the Kps of MZ₂ has a larger value.

b) A saturated solution is a solution that has the maximum amount of salt dissolved, so, the concentration dissolved is solubility. As we can notice from the reactions, the concentration of M⁺² is the same for both salts.

c) The equilibrium will be not modified because the salts have the same solubility. So, let's suppose that the volume of each one is 1 L, so the number of moles of the cation in each one is 4x10⁻⁴ mol. The total number of moles is 8x10⁻⁴ mol, and the concentration is:

8x10⁻⁴ mol/2 L = 4x10⁻⁴ mol/L.

Smart people help me pass my class
slega [8]

Answer:

im not smart but here

Explanation:

The strength of the gravitational force between two objects depends on two factors, mass and distance. the force of gravity the masses exert on each other. If one of the masses is doubled, the force of gravity between the objects is doubled. increases, the force of gravity decreases.

The balanced equation for combustion in an acetylene torch is shown below:
vichka [17]

Answer:

70mol

Explanation:

The equation of the reaction is given as:

                  2C₂H₂ + 5O₂ → 4CO₂ + 2H₂O

Given parameters:

Number of moles of acetylene = 35.0mol

Number of moles of oxygen in the tank = 84.0mol

Unknown:

Number of moles of CO₂ produced = 35.0mol

Solution:

From the information given about the reaction, we know that the reactant that limits this combustion process is acetylene. Oxygen is given in excess and we don't know the number of moles of this gas that was used up. We know for sure that all the moles of acetylene provided was used to furnish the burning procedure.

To determine the number of moles of CO₂ produced, we use the stoichiometric relationship between the known acetylene and the CO₂ produced from the balanced chemical equation:

From the equation:

         2 moles of acetylene produced 4 moles of CO₂

          ∴ 35.0 mol of acetylene would produced:  

                               \frac{35 x 4}{2} = 70mol

A selectively permeable membrane separates solution a and
Yakvenalex [24]
The water molecules will flow from b to a due to osmosis.

Osmosis is where water molecules will flow from a region of higher water potential to a region of lower water potential, through a selectively permeable membrane.

When the water molecule concentration is higher, it has a higher water potential top. Water potential is the tendency for them to flow to a lower region.

The net movement will stop until both sides of the solution has a same water potential.
