A force of 26.4lb is applied to an area of 1.71 in2. What is the pressure?

Chemistry
1 answer:
aleksandrvk [35]4 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Pressure, P = 15.4 lb/in²

Explanation:

Given that,

Force applied, F = 26.4 lb

Area of cross section, A = 1.71 in²

To find,

Pressure.

Solution,

Pressure is equal to force per unit area of cross section.

P=\dfrac{F}{A}\\\\P=\dfrac{26.4\ lb}{1.71\ in^2}\\\\P=15.43\ lb/in^2\\\\P=15.43\ Pa

Hence, the correct option is (a) "15.4 lb/in²".

what is the purpose of the condenser? question 3 options: a) to de-superheat the entering vapor, condense the vapor to a liquid,
Alona [7]

Option (a) is correct,

the purpose of the condenser is to de-superheat, the entering vapor, condense the vapor to a liquid, and subcool the liquid.

<h3>What is a condenser's purpose?</h3>

A condenser uses a cooling fluid to attempt to sufficiently cool down a vapor, changing its state from a vapor to a liquid. Condensers come in a variety of designs, including direct condensing, which involves coming into direct touch with the cooling fluid and the vapor.

<h3>What kind of vapor is condensed?</h3>

The vapour that needs to condense might be highly different and can even include non-condensable vapour, such as air, which greatly affects how well the condenser works.

A chemist has a 12.5 liter sample of neon gas at 1.00 atm and 30 c. If the chemist compresses the sample to 10.5 liters and hold
ycow [4]

Answer:

254.5 K

Explanation:

Data Given

initial volume V1 of neon gas = 12.5 L

final Volume V2 of neon gas = 10.5 L

initial Temperature T1 of neon gas = 30 °C

convert Temperature to Kelvin

T1 = °C +273

T1 = 30°C + 273 = 303 K

final Temperature T2 of neon gas = ?

Solution:

This problem will be solved by using Charles' law equation at constant pressure.

The formula used

                        V1 / T1 = V2 / T2

As we have to find out Temperature, so rearrange the above equation

                       T2 = V2 x T1 / V1

Put value from the data given

T2 = 10.5 L x 303 K / 12.5 L

T2 = 254.5K

So the final Temperature of neon gas = 254.5 K

What happens when you mix acid and base?
kap26 [50]
Acids are chemicals with a pH less than 7 that can donate a proton or H+ ion in a reaction. Bases have a pH greater than 7 and can accept a proton or produce an OH- ion in a reaction. If you mix equal amounts of a strong acid and a strong base, the two chemicals essentially cancel each other out and produce a salt and water. Mixing equal amounts of a strong acid with a strong base also produces a neutral pH (pH = 7) solution. This is called a neauturization and looks like 
HA + BOH → BA + H2O + heat
