Answer:

<h2>chemoautotrophs</h2>

Explanation:

Such types of bacteria that oxidize inorganic compounds to obtain energy and use carbon dioxide as a carbon source to synthesize their food are known as chemoautotrophs such as iron-oxidizing bacteria, cyanobacteria, sulfur-oxidizing bacteria and some other. Chemoautrophic mode of nutrition is a type of autotrophic nutrition in which organisms have the ability to synthesized their own food by using chemical energy in the place of solar energy. The organismS that use solar energy to synthesize their food are known as photoautotrophic organisms such as plants and some other organisms.

A sample of nitrogen occupies 10.0 liters at 25°C what would be the new volume at 20°C? 7.9 L Ob 9.8 L 10.2 L 10.6 L
PtichkaEL [24]

Answer:

  9.4 liter

Explanation:

1) Data:

V₁ = 10.0 L

T₁ = 25°C = 25 + 273.15 K = 298.15 K

 P₁ = 98.7 Kpa

 T₂ = 20°C = 20 + 273.15 K = 293.15 K

  P₂ = 102.7 KPa

  V₂ = ?

2) Formula:

Used combined law of gases:

  PV / T = constant

  P₁V₁ / T₁ = P₂V₂ / T₂

3) Solution:

Solve the equation for V₂:

  V₂ = P₁V₁ T₂ / (P₂ T₁)

Substitute and compuite:

V₂ = P₁V₁ T₂ / (P₂ T₁)

V₂ = 98.7 KPa × 10.0 L × 293.15 K / (102.7 KPa × 298.15 K)

V₂ =  9.4 liter ← answer

Consider the balanced equation.
Zolol [24]

 <span>The balanced reaction that describes the reaction between hydrogen and nitrogen to produce ammonia is expressed 3H2 + N2 = 2NH3. The yield of the reaction is equal to the actual amount of product divided to the theoretical amount of product multiplied by 100 percent. 26.3 grams of H2 theoretically produces149 grams. The yield is 79 divided by 149 equal to 53.02 percent. </span>

How many molecules are there in 6.73 moles of phosphorus trichloride? (write your answer in scientific notation).
anyanavicka [17]

Answer: There are 4.05\times 10^{24}  molecules in 6.73 moles of phosphorus trichloride

Explanation:

According to avogadro's law, 1 mole of every substance occupies 22.4 L at STP and contains avogadro's number 6.023\times 10^{23} of particles.

1 mole of PCl_3 contains = 6.023\times 10^{23}  molecules

Thus 6.73 moles of PCl_3 contains = \frac{6.023\times 10^{23}}{1}\times 6.73=4.05\times 10^{24}  molecules

Thus there are 4.05\times 10^{24}  molecules in 6.73 moles of phosphorus trichloride

Water molecules stick together by a force called?
patriot [66]

Answer:

Cohesion

Explanation:

Depending on how attracted molecules of the same substance are to one another, the substance will be more or less cohesive. Hydrogen bonds cause water to be exceptionally attracted to each other. Therefore, water is very cohesive.
