Answer:

Chemical Reaction

Explanation:

Copper is a transitional metal, meaning it is much more stable chemically than potassium. Potassium is considered an Alkaline Earth metal meaning it is very unstable and reacts violently. I'm not sure how in depth you have to go but this is just the surface of the explanation.

A gas mixture with a total pressure of 745 mmHg contains each of the following gases at the indicated partial pressures: CO2, 24
Setler79 [48]

<u>Answer:</u>

<u>For Part A:</u> The partial pressure of Helium is 218 mmHg.

<u>For Part B:</u> The mass of helium gas is 0.504 g.

<u>Explanation:</u>

  • <u>For Part A:</u>

We are given:

p_{CO_2}=245mmHg\\p_Ar}=119mmHg\\p_{O_2}=163mmHg\\P=745mmHg

To calculate the partial pressure of helium, we use the formula:

P=p_{CO_2}+p_{Ar}+p_{O_2}+p_{He}

Putting values in above equation, we get:

745=245+119+163+p_{He}\\p_{He}=218mmHg

Hence, the partial pressure of Helium is 218 mmHg.

  • <u>For Part B:</u>

To calculate the mass of helium gas, we use the equation given by ideal gas:

PV = nRT

or,

PV=\frac{m}{M}RT

where,

P = Pressure of helium gas = 218 mmHg

V = Volume of the helium gas = 10.2 L

m = Mass of helium gas = ? g

M = Molar mass of helium gas = 4 g/mol

R = Gas constant = 62.3637\text{ L.mmHg }mol^{-1}K^{-1}

T = Temperature of helium gas = 283 K

Putting values in above equation, we get:

218mmHg\times 10.2L=\frac{m}{4g/mol}\times 62.3637\text{ L.mmHg }mol^{-1}K^{-1}\times 283K\\\\m=0.504g

Hence, the mass of helium gas is 0.504 g.

Define the following terms:
Marrrta [24]

Answer:

a)An endothermic reaction is any chemical reaction that absorbs heat from its environment. The absorbed energy provides the activation energy for the reaction to occur eg Melting of ice, Evaporating liquid water

   b)An Exothermic reaction is a chemical reaction that involves the release of energy in the form of heat or light.eg a spark, flame, or flash), electricity , a battery), or sound , explosion heard when burning hydrogen).

c)By definition an exothermic reaction produces heat as part of it’s process. The heat generated just by being alive is an exothermic process as well. And as such we become aware of when we feel “too cold” or “too hot” and try to either adjust to the conditions we are in, or minimize them, if possible. It is not merely odd, but contrary to intelligent living, that we choose to increase our discomfort and also risk our health by intentionally increasing not only the exothermic reactions we use but also maximize them to our own detriment. In short, the increased use of inefficient exothermic reactions while inexpensive in current evaluations of financial cost are extremely expensive in terms of it’s effect upon living things, including ourselves. It is as though we are choosing our homes to not only be next to a furnace, but as close as possible to the process.
