Answer:

2.2508\times 10^{19} m meter the mean free path of hydrogen atoms in interstellar space.Explanation:

The mean free path equation is given as:

\lambda =\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}\pi d^2 n}

Where"

d = diameter of hydrogen atom in meters

n =  number of molecules per unit volume

We are given: d = 100 pm = 100\times 10^{-12}= 10^{-10} m

n = 1 m^{-3}

\lambda =\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}\pi (10^{-10} m)^2\times 1 m^{-3}}

\lambda =2.2508\times 10^{19} m

2.2508\times 10^{19} m meter the mean free path of hydrogen atoms in interstellar space.

How many moles of PCl5 can be produced from 53.0 g of Cl2 (and excess P4)?
elena55 [62]

Answer:

0.299 moles of PCl5

Explanation:

First form an equation based of given information: P4 + Cl2= 4PCl5

Next balance it: P4 + 10Cl2 = 4PCl5

Take your given value (53.0g of Cl2) and divide it by its molar mass to get moles of Cl2: 53.0g/70.906g = 0.747 moles Cl2

Then, multiply by the molar ratio (10Cl2 to 4PCl5): (0.747 x 4 mol PCl5)/10 mol Cl2 = 0.299 moles PCl5

If I have 7.5 L of a gas in a piston at a pressure of 1.75 atm and compress the gas until its volume is 3.7 L, what will the new
Sergio [31]

Answer:

3.55atm

Explanation:

We will apply Boyle's law formula in solving this problem.

P1V1 = P2V2

And with values given in the question

P1=initial pressure of gas = 1.75atm

V1=initial volume of gas =7.5L

P2=final pressure of gas inside new piston in atm

V2=final volume of gas = 3.7L

We need to find the final pressure

From the equation, P1V1 = P2V2,

We make P2 subject

P2 = (P1V1) / V2

P2 = (1.75×7.5)/3.7

P2=3.55atm

Therefore, the new pressure inside the piston is 3.55atm

In separating mixtures is it an advantage or a disadvantage?
Serjik [45]

Answer:

Purpose: To become familiar with the techniques for separation of amixture of solids.

Explanation:

a mixture of pure substances. If you have a mixture of tennis ballsand marbles (not pure substances by the way), it would be easy toseparate the mixture. However, it is more difficult to separate asand (also not a pure substance) and salt mixture. Even with verygood tweezers and a magnifying glass, it would be extremelytedious. You could take advantage of the fact that salt dissolvesin water and sand does not. To separate iron powder from an ironand sand mixture you can take advantage of the magnetic propertiesof iron and separate the mixture.

To summarize a complete procedure for separating a mixture ofseveral substances, it is best to prepare a flow chart. A flowchartis a schematic representation of an algorithm or a stepwiseprocess, showing the steps as boxes of various kinds, and theirorder by connecting these with arrows. Flowcharts are used indesigning or documenting a process.
