When the surface of moon reflects light from the sun, it results in shining of moon and regardless the fact that sometimes moon seems to shine brightly, the moon reflects between 3 to 12 percent of the sunlight which hits it. The moon brightness depends upon the position of the moon in orbit around the planet from the earth.

Hence, the correct option is A that is the Moon reflects the light produced by the Sun.

A sample of helium gas has a volume of 900. milliliters and a pressure of 2.50 atm at 298 K. What is the new pressure when the t

Sergio039 [100]

The combined Boyle's and Charles' gas law says P1V1/T1 = P2V2/T2 

In this case we have (2.5 atm) (900 ml) / 298 K = (P2) (450 ml) / 336 K -----> 
7.55 = 1.34P2 -----> P2 = 7.55 / 1.34 = 5.63 atm

What is a key element found in CO2 and glucose?

hram777 [196]

Carbon is the only possible solution in this question for the reason that the chemical formula for glucose is c6h12o6 (6, 12 and 6 underscore) and carbon dioxide is co2. Both of the chemical formula contains carbon that is why that is the main element.

The given question is incomplete. The complete question is :

Carbon tetrachloride can be produced by the following reaction:

$CS_2(g)+3Cl_2(g)\rightleftharpoons S_2Cl_2(g)+CCl_4(g)$

Suppose 1.20 mol $CS_2(g)$ of and 3.60 mol of $Cl_2(g)$ were placed in a 1.00-L flask at an unknown temperature. After equilibrium has been achieved, the mixture contains 0.72 mol of $CCl_4$ . Calculate equilibrium constant at the unknown temperature.
