Answer: 84.56L

Explanation:

Initial volume of gas V1 = 100L

Initial temperature T1 = 135°C

Convert temperature in Celsius to Kelvin

( 135°C + 273 = 408K)

Final temperature T2 = 72°C

( 72°C + 273= 345K)

Final volume V2 = ?

According to Charle's law, the volume of a fixed mass of a gas is directly proportional to the temperature.

Mathematically, Charles' Law is expressed as: V1/T1 = V2/T2

100L/408K = V2/345K

To get the value of V2, cross multiply

100L x 345K = V2 x 408K

34500 = V2 x 408K

V2.= 34500/408

V2 = 84.56L

Thus, the volume of the gas becomes 84.56 liters

Calculate the solubility of hydrogen in water at an atmospheric pressure of 0.380 atm (a typical value at high altitude).

Pani-rosa [81]

The question is incomplete, here is the complete question:

Calculate the solubility of hydrogen in water at an atmospheric pressure of 0.380 atm (a typical value at high altitude).

Atmospheric Gas Mole Fraction kH mol/(L*atm)

$N_2$ $7.81\times 10^{-1}$ $6.70\times 10^{-4}$

$O_2$ $2.10\times 10^{-1}$ $1.30\times 10^{-3}$

Ar $9.34\times 10^{-3}$ $1.40\times 10^{-3}$

$CO_2$ $3.33\times 10^{-4}$ $3.50\times 10^{-2}$

$CH_4$ $2.00\times 10^{-6}$ $1.40\times 10^{-3}$

$H_2$ $5.00\times 10^{-7}$ $7.80\times 10^{-4}$

<u>Answer:</u> The solubility of hydrogen gas in water at given atmospheric pressure is $1.48\times 10^{-10}M$

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the partial pressure of hydrogen gas, we use the equation given by Raoult's law, which is:

$p_{\text{hydrogen gas}}=p_T\times \chi_{\text{hydrogen gas}}$

where,

$p_A$ = partial pressure of hydrogen gas = ?

$p_T$ = total pressure = 0.380 atm

$\chi_A$ = mole fraction of hydrogen gas = $5.00\times 10^{-7}$

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$p_{\text{hydrogen gas}}=0.380\times 5.00\times 10^{-7}\\\\p_{\text{hydrogen gas}}=1.9\times 10^{-7}atm$

To calculate the molar solubility, we use the equation given by Henry's law, which is:

$C_{H_2}=K_H\times p_{H_2}$

where,

$K_H$ = Henry's constant = $7.80\times 10^{-4}mol/L.atm$

$p_{H_2}$ = partial pressure of hydrogen gas = $1.9\times 10^{-7}atm$

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$C_{H_2}=7.80\times 10^{-4}mol/L.atm\times 1.9\times 10^{-7}atm\\\\C_{CO_2}=1.48\times 10^{-10}M$

Hence, the solubility of hydrogen gas in water at given atmospheric pressure is $1.48\times 10^{-10}M$

If the caterpillar keeps moving at the same speed, how long will it take to travel 6cm?

Solnce55 [7]

It will take 15 s to travel 6 cm

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

distance versus time graph

Required

time travel

Solution

Caterpillar motion is a straight motion with a constant speed, so that the graph between distance and time forms a diagonal line

If we look at the graph, we can determine the time taken when the distance reaches 6 cm (y axis) by drawing a line to the diagonal line and cutting the x-axis as time, and we get 15 s

Or we can also use the formula for motion at constant speed:

d = v x t

With v at point 2,5 of 2/5 m / s, so the time taken:

$\tt t=\dfrac{d}{v}=\dfrac{6}{2/5}=15~s$
