What is the best way to organize desert several several million different types of organisms on earth
SCORPION-xisa [38]

Answer:

The desert should be divided into different types based on its properties. The organisms living in specific type of desert should be named accordingly.

Explanation:

There are usually five major types of desert in the world. Tropical, rainy, semi arid desert, coastal desert and dry desert. There are many different types of organisms living in these deserts. The biodiversity has made it difficult for the humans to analyse and identify the millions of different types. The best way is to organize and name the organisms that live in specific types of deserts.

What is the volume of 14.0g of nitrogen gas at STP?
lozanna [386]

Answer:

  • <em>The volume of 14.0 g of nitrogen gas at STP is </em><u><em>11.2 liter.</em></u>

Explanation:

STP stands for standard pressure and temperature.

The International Institute of of Pure and Applied Chemistry, IUPAC changed the definition of standard temperature and pressure (STP) in 1982:

  •   Before the change, STP was defined as a temperature of 273.15 K and an absolute pressure of exactly 1 atm (101.325 kPa).

  •    After the change, STP is defined as a temperature of 273.15 K and an absolute pressure of exactly 105 Pa (100 kPa, 1 bar).

Using the ideal gas equation of state, PV = nRT you can calculate the volume of one mole (n = 1)  of gas. With the former definition, the volume of a mol of gas at STP, rounded to 3 significant figures, was 22.4 liter. This is classical well known result.

With the later definition, the volume of a mol of gas at STP is 22.7 liter.

I will use the traditional measure of 22.4 liter per mole of gas.

<u>1) Convert 14.0 g of nitrogen gas to number of moles:</u>

  • n = mass in grams / molar mass
  • Atomic mass of nitrogen: 14.0 g/mol
  • Nitrogen gas is a diatomic molecule, so the molar mass of nitrogen gas = molar mass of N₂ = 14.0 × 2 g/mol = 28.0 g/mol
  • n = 14.0 g / 28.0 g/mol = 0.500 mol

<u>2) Set a proportion to calculate the volume of nitrogen gas:</u>

  • 22.4 liter / mol = x  / 0.500 mol
  • Solve for x: x = 0.500 mol × 22.4 liter / mol = 11.2 liter.

<u>Conclusion:</u> the volume of 14.0 g of nitrogen gas at STP is 11.2 liter.

7944/0.024 = _______ give the answer to the correct number of significant figures?
In-s [12.5K]

Answer:

330,000

Explanation:

Since there are only 2 significant figures in 0.024 ( and 0.024 is the number with the least number of significant numbers), the answer is 330,000, not 331,000.
