The correct option is A.
The law of definite proportion states that a given chemical compound always contains its component elements in fixed ratio irrespective of the source they are obtain from.
For instance, water is made up of two atoms of hydrogen and one atom of oxygen. Water can not be formed in any other way. Combining the oxygen and the hydrogen in another ratio will give us another thing not water.

Calculate the equilibrium constant for the reaction between fe2+(aq) and zn(s) under standard conditions at 25∘c.
Hatshy [7]
Following reaction occurs in the given electrochemical system:
Fe^{2+} + Zn → Fe + Zn^{2+}
Thus, under standard conditions
E(0) = E(0) Fe2+/Fe - E(0) Zn2+/Zn
where, E^{0}Fe2+/Fe = standard reduction potential of Fe2+/Fe = -0.44 v
E^{0}Zn2+/Zn = standard reduction potential of Zn2+/Zn = -0.763 v

E(0) = 0.323 v
now, we know that, ΔG(0) =-nFE(0) ............... (1)
Also, ΔG^{0} = -RTln(K) ............ (2)

On equating and rearranging equation 1 and 2, we get
K = exp( \frac{nFE(0)}{RT} )= exp (\frac{2X96500X0.323}{8.314X298}) = 8.46 x 10^{10}

What are inside of cars so hot when left in the sun
Naya [18.7K]

Answer:

metalllll/material

Explanation:

you know how dark shirts absorb the sun heat well its practically the same just with material.

"Why is the inside of a car so hot after sitting in the sun?

Cars warm up in the sun due to the greenhouse effect: Sunlight passing through the windows into the car is mostly absorbed by interior surfaces, then radiated back to the air as heat. ... “As a consequence, the inside of the car will warm because radiation is coming in but not much is going back out.”Jul 27, 2009

Curiosities: Does a dark-colored car heat up more in the sun than a ..."
