Answer:

2.47x10^{25}atoms

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, since the mineral torbernite has one copper atom, two uranium atoms, twenty oxygen atoms (2x2+4x2+8), two phosphorous atoms and sixteen hydrogen atoms (12x2) and therefore forty one in total, by using the Avogadro's number one is able to compute the total number of atoms in one formula unit or one mole:

Atoms=1molCu(UO_2)_2(PO_4)_2\dot \ 8H_2O*\frac{41mol\ of \ atoms}{1molCu(UO_2)_2(PO_4)_2\dot \ 8H_2O}*\frac{6.022x10^{23}atoms}{1mol\ of \ atoms}  \\\\=2.47x10^{25}atoms

Best regards.

Consider this reaction at equilibrium at a total pressure P1: 2SO2(g) + O2(g) → 2SO3(g) Suppose the volume of this system is c
oksian1 [2.3K]

Answer:

The new equilibrium total pressure will be  increased to one-half to initial total pressure.

Explanation:

From the information given :

The equation of the reaction can be represented as;

2SO_{2(g)}+O_{2(g)} \to2SO_{3(g)}

From above equation:

2 moles of sulphur dioxide reacts with 1 mole of oxygen  (i.e 2 moles +1 mole  =3 moles ) to give 2 moles of sulphur trioxide

So; suppose the volume of this system is compressed to one-half its initial volume and then equilibrium is reestablished.

So if this process takes place ; the equilibrium will definitely shift to the side with fewer moles , thus the equilibrium will shift to the right. As such; there is increase in pressure.

Let the total pressure at the initial equilibrium be P_1

and the total pressure at the final equilibrium be P_2

According to Boyle's Law; Boyle's Law states that the pressure of a fixed mass of gas is inversely proportional to the volume, provided the temperature remains constant.

Thus;

P ∝  1/V

P = K/V

PV = K

where K = constant

So;

PV = constant

Hence;

P_1V_1 = P_2V_2

From the foregoing; since the volume is decreased to one- half to initial Volume; then ,

V_2 =  \dfrac{V_1}{\dfrac{3}{2}} ----- (1)

also;

Thus ;

P_1V_1 = P_2(  \dfrac{V_1}{\frac{3}{2}})

P_1V_1 = P_2 * 2  \dfrac{V_1}{3}

3 P_1 V_1 = 2 P_2 V_1

Dividing both sides by V_1

3P_1 = 2P_2

P_2 =P_1 \dfrac{3}{2}  ----- (2)

From ;

P_1V_1 = P_2V_2

P_2 V_2 = P_1 * \dfrac{3}{2}* \dfrac{V_1}{\frac{3}{2}}

P_2 V_2 = P_1 * \dfrac{3}{2}*   \dfrac{2 }{3}}*V_1

P_2 V_2 = P_1 V_1

Thus; The new equilibrium total pressure will be  increased to one-half to initial total pressure.

Which forms when a humid air mass rises into a cooler temperature area?
Zielflug [23.3K]

Option A: Clouds

In the morning, air is cool and as sun begins to rise it starts increasing the temperature of air. By time, the air becomes warmer and warmer. Depending upon the surrounding conditions, air in different areas heat up at different rates.

Due to this heating, thermal formation takes place, this is due to uneven heating of surface of earth. The thermal formation at surface causes difference in temperature of surface of the earth and air around it. The warm air has tendency to rise thus, the air in the thermal rise and expand. Due to expansion it cools down, this process continues till the temperature of thermal air reaches equals to the temperature of surrounding air. This results in the formation of cloud.

Thus, when a humid air mass rises into a cooler temperature area, clouds formation takes place

Which best describes nuclear fission
Firlakuza [10]
<span>Nuclear fission is either a nuclear reaction or radio active decay process in which nucleus (the center) of an atom splits into smaller parts called nuclei. This is an extremely exothermic reaction (i.e a reaction which produces heat) resulting into release of massive amount of energy in the form of heat and sometimes light. The reaction produces much more energy as compared to a similar mass of a conventional fuel, such as Petrol/Kerosene/Petroleum Gas etc. This makes Nuclear fission an extremely dense and at times very destructive source of energy. Some common elements capable of Nuclear fission are Uranium, Plutonium etc. Though in modern days Nuclear Fission are finding application in being a source of energy (such as a Nuclear power plant), but they are also used in destructive format as Nuclear Bombs and it's one of the top most imminent threats to the existence of humanity in future (in the event of a Nuclear war).</span>
