Answer:

ν = 1483.939 m/s

Explanation:

Wave propagation speed (ν):

  • ν = λ / T

∴ Wavelength ( λ ) = 4.25 m

∴ Period ( T ) = 1 / f

∴ frequency ( f ) = 349.2 Hz ( s-1 )

⇒ T = 1 / 349.2 s-1

⇒ T = 2.864 E-3 s

⇒ ν = (4.25 m) / (2.864 E-3 s)

⇒ ν = 1483.939 m/s

<u>Answer:</u> The wave speed of the given sound wave is 1.48\times 10^3m/s  

<u>Explanation:</u>

Wave speed is defined as the product of its wavelength and frequency.

Mathematically,

\text{Wave speed}=\lambda\times \nu

where,

\lambda = wavelength of the wave = 4.25 m

\nu = frequency of the wave = 349.2 Hz = 349.2s^{-1}

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\text{Wave speed}=4.25m\times 349.2s^{-1}\\\\\text{Wave speed}=1484.1m/s=1.48\times 10^3m/s

Hence, the wave speed of the given sound wave is 1.48\times 10^3m/s

Increasing the temperature increases the vaporization rate of a liquid because the excess energy is used to break covalent bonds
igor_vitrenko [27]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

False.  The molecules of liquid are hold in the liquid state due to intermolecular forces or Van de Waals forces , without affecting the molecule itself and its atomic bonds (covalent bonds).  When the temperature increases the kinetic energy of the molecules is higher , therefore they have more possibilities to escape from the attractive intermolecular forces and go to the gas state.

Note however that this is caused because the intermolecular forces are really weak compared to covalent bonds, therefore is easier to break the first one first and go to the gas state before any covalent bond breaks ( if it happens).

A temperature increase can increase vaporisation rate if any reaction is triggered that decomposes the liquid into more volatile compounds , but nevertheless, this effect is generally insignificant compared with the effect that temperature has in vaporisation due to Van der Waals forces.

Naming ionic compounds what are the structural units that make up ionic compounds and how are they named answers
Marizza181 [45]
Ionic compounds are the combination of two elements, one of which is a metal, while the other is a nonmetal. The intermolecular forces binding them is called an ionic bond. To name an ionic compound, take the name of the metal element first, followed by the nonmetal, but adding the suffix -ide. For example, NaCl is named as sodium chloride.

For the reaction 2NH3(g) + 2O2(g)N2O(g) + 3H2O(l) H° = -683.1 kJ and S° = -365.6 J/K The standard free energy change for the rea
BlackZzzverrR [31]

Answer:

\Delta G^{0} = -457.9 kJ and reaction is product favored.

Explanation:

The given reaction is associated with 2 moles of NH_{3}

Standard free energy change of the reaction (\Delta G^{0}) is given as:

           \Delta G^{0}=\Delta H^{0}-T\Delta S^{0}   , where T represents temperature in kelvin scale

So, \Delta G^{0}=(-683.1\times 10^{3})J-(273K\times -365.6J/K)=-583291.2J

So, for the reaction of 1.57 moles of NH_{3}, \Delta G^{0}=(\frac{1.57}{2})\times -583291.2J=-457883.592J=-457.9kJ

As, \Delta G^{0} is negative therefore reaction is product favored under standard condition.
