How do carbon-12 and carbon-13 differ?
Feliz [49]

Answer:

They have different amounts of neutrons.

They have different mass numbers.

Explanation:

Carbon-12 and carbon-13 are two isotopes of the element carbon. The difference between carbon-12 and carbon-13 is the number of neutrons in each atom. Atoms of both isotopes of carbon contain 6 protons. Atoms of carbon-12 have 6 neutrons, while atoms of carbon-13 contain 7 neutrons. And because the mass number is the sum of protons and neutrons in the nucleus then will be different too. Atoms of carbon-12 have the mass number equal to  12 a.m.u. while atoms of carbon-13  have the mass number equal to 13 a.m.u. .

a.m.u. - atomic mass units

A weather balloon contains 1.10X10 to the power of 5 mol of helium and has a volume of 2.70x10 to the power of 6 L at 1.00 atm p
olchik [2.2K]

Answer:

299.14 K or 26°C

Explanation:

The ideal gas law, also called the general gas equation, is the equation of state of a hypothetical ideal gas.

The ideal gas law is often written as

PV = nRT

where P ,V and T are the pressure, volume and absolute temperature;

n is the number of moles of gas and  R is the ideal gas constant.

n=1.10 x 10^5 mol  

V= 2.70 x 10^6 L  

P= 1.00 atm= 101.325 kPa  

R= 8.314 kPa*L/ mol*K

when the formula is  rearranged, T=PV/ nR  

T = (101.325kPa * 2.70 x 10^6 L)/ (1.10 x 10^5 mol * 8.314 kPa*L/ mol*K)  

T = 299.1421917 K

or

T = 299.14 - 273.15 = 25.99 =  26°C

Which of the following polymers is used in plastic bottles and plastic containers? Select one: a. LDPE b. PVC c. Polystyrene d.
Pie

Answer: Option (d) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

It is known that polyethene which have high density and these are generally safe plastics which does not transfer any chemicals to food ingredients. In most of the industries, these type of plastics have large application because these can be used to prepare plant pots, plastic woods, furniture etc.

High density polyethene is also known by the short form HDPE.

Whereas low density polyethene (LDPE), PVC, polystyrene and polypropylene are not safe plastics and they tend to harm the environment. So, they are not safe to store or preserve food items.

Thus, we can conclude that out of the given options HDPE polymers is used in plastic bottles and plastic containers.
