Among the choices, the best answer is alcohol. However, the most common groups of organic compounds in fuels are the alkanes and alkenes. Alcohol can also be used in fuel, especially bioethanol. Bioethanol is a common additive in fuels for motor vehicles, and is made from corn or sugar.

when 6.0 mol of oxygen are confined in a 36L vessel at 196°c, the pressure is 8atm. what is the new pressure for oxygen expands

kykrilka [37]

Answer: The new pressure for oxygen gas is 6 atm.

Explanation:

To calculate the new pressure of the gas, we use the equation given by Boyle's Law.

This law states that the pressure is inversely proportional to the volume of the gas at constant temperature and number of moles.

Mathematically,

$P\propto \frac{1}{V}$

or,

$P_1V_1=P_2V_2$

where,

$P_1\text{ and }V_1$ are the initial pressure and volume of the gas.

$P_2\text{ and }V_2$ are the final pressure and volume of the gas.

We are given:

$P_1=8atm\\V_1=36L\\P_2=?atm\\V_2=48L$

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$8atm\times 36L=P_2\times 48L\\\\P_2=6atm$

Hence, the new pressure for oxygen gas is 6 atm.

The two naturally occurring isotopes of antimony, 121Sb (57.21 percent) and 123Sb (42.79 percent), have masses of 120.904 and 12

Alex

Answer:

The correct answer is option c.

Explanation:

Formula used to determine an average atomic mass :

$\text{Average atomic mass }=\sum_{i=1}^n\text{(Atomic mass of an isotopes)}_i\times \text{(Fractional abundance})_i$

Mass of isotope Sb-121 = 120.904 amu

Fractional abundance of Sb-121 = 57.21% = 0.5721

Mass of isotope Sb-123 = 122.904 amu

Fractional abundance of Sb-123 = 42.79% = 0.4279

Average atomic mass of Sb:

$120.904 amu\times 0.5721+ 122.904 amu\times 0.4279=121.7598 amu \approx 121.76 amu$

igor_vitrenko [27]

The answer is B. Because think about it, it’s not a scientific fact that brown dogs are better pets, and the best color for your room isn’t it because the answer would be an opinion of someone not a fact. I hope this might help you.

masha68 [24]

The question is incomplete, here is the complete question:

A chemist measures the amount of bromine liquid produced during an experiment. She finds that 766.g of bromine liquid is produced. Calculate the number of moles of bromine liquid produced. Round your answer to 3 significant digits.

Answer: The amount of liquid bromine produced is 4.79 moles.

Explanation:

To calculate the number of moles, we use the equation:

$\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}$
