butalik [34]3 years ago

The substance is dead or alive is determined by response or consciousness of the substance to external stimulus.

<h3><u>Explanation</u>:</h3>

The living organisms do have several characteristics. They are growth, reproduction, consciousness etc. But among them, consciousness is the only feature that's confined within only the living world. No non living things have this feature.

So if the scientist can find that the substance found have some response to external stimulus, then it does have life. And if it doesn't response to any sort of external stimulus, then it doesn't have life.

Determine el PH y el % de disociación de una solución de ácido débil, sabiendo que se disuelven 20 gramos del ácido (masa molar=
IceJOKER [234]

Answer:

pH = 4.27. Porcentaje de disociación: 0.03%

Explanation:

El pH de un ácido débil, HX, se obtiene haciendo uso de su equilibrio:

HX(aq) ⇄ H⁺(aq) + X⁻(aq)

Donde la constante de equilibrio, Ka, es

Ka = 1.65x10⁻⁸ = [H⁺] [X⁻] / [HX]

Como los iones H⁺ y X⁻ vienen del mismo equilibrio podemos decir:

[H⁺] = [X⁻]

[HX] es:

20g * (1mol/55g) = 0.3636moles / 2.100L = 0.1732M

Reemplazando es Ka:

1.65x10⁻⁸ = [H⁺] [H⁺] / [0.1732M]

2.858x10⁻⁹ = [H⁺]²

5.35x10⁻⁵M = [H⁺]

pH = -log[H⁺]

<h3>pH = 4.27</h3>

El porcentaje de disociacion es [X⁻] / [HX] inicial * 100

Reemplazando

5.35x10⁻⁵M / 0.1732M * 100

<h3>0.03%</h3>

A sample of nitrogen gas is at a temperature of 50 c and a pressure of 2 atm. If the volume of the sample remains constant and t
Lilit [14]

Answer:

The new temperature of the nitrogen gas is 516.8 K or 243.8 C.

Explanation:

Gay-Lussac's law indicates that, as long as the volume of the container containing the gas is constant, as the temperature increases, the gas molecules move faster. Then the number of collisions with the walls increases, that is, the pressure increases. That is, the pressure of the gas is directly proportional to its temperature.

Gay-Lussac's law can be expressed mathematically as follows:

\frac{P}{T} =k

Where P = pressure, T = temperature, K = Constant

You want to study two different states, an initial state and a final state. You have a gas that is at a pressure P1 and at a temperature T1 at the beginning of the experiment. By varying the temperature to a new value T2, then the pressure will change to P2, and the following will be fulfilled:

\frac{P1}{T1} =\frac{P2}{T2}

In this case:

  • P1= 2 atm
  • T1= 50 C= 323 K (being 0 C= 273 K)
  • P2= 3.2 atm
  • T2= ?

Replacing:

\frac{2 atm}{323 K} =\frac{3.2 atm}{T2}

Solving:

T2*\frac{2 atm}{323 K} =3.2 atm

T2=3.2 atm*\frac{323 K}{2 atm}

T2= 516.8 K= 243.8 C

<u><em>The new temperature of the nitrogen gas is 516.8 K or 243.8 C.</em></u>

Two compounds are standing at the same temperature. Compound "A" is evaporating more slowly than compound "
Tju [1.3M]
I believe the answer is compound B may have a lower molecular weight compared to compound A. 
At the same temperature, lighter particles of a compound have a higher average speeds than do heavier particles of another compound. Thus, particles of compound B are lighter than those of compound A and thus they have a higher average speed, hence evaporating faster compared to compound A.

do you think that religion and science are in conflict ,or that people can both have both without any problems
natka813 [3]
Religion and science are fundamentally incompatible. They disagree profoundly on how we obtain knowledge of the world. Science is based observation and reasoning from observation. Religion assumes that human beings can access a deeper level of information that is not available by either observation or reason.
