Answer:

C.  CO2 exists in relatively high concentrations.  

Explanation:

From the available options:

A.  CO2 molecules are highly symmetrical.  

B.  CO2 has a low molar mass.  

C.  CO2 exists in relatively high concentrations.  

D.  CO2 is formed in the combustion of fossil fuels.  

<em>The focus on CO2 as far as global warming is concerned is not because It has a high global warming potential but because of its relatively high concentration in the atmosphere as a result of both natural and anthropological activities.</em>

The correct option is C.

Write the Henderson-Hasselbalch equation for a propanoic acid solution (CH3CH2CO2H, pKa = 4.874) using the symbols HA and A–, an
Luden [163]
The Henderson-Hasselbalch approximation is for conjugate acid-base pairs in a buffered solution. We're going to call HA a weak acid, and A- its conjugate base. The equation is as follows:
pH = pKa + log([base]/[acid]), where the brackets imply concentrations
Plugging in our symbols and the pKa value, the equation becomes:
pH = 4.874 + log([A-]/[HA])

Be sure to answer all parts. Express the rate of reaction in terms of the change in concentration of each of the reactants and p
Tanzania [10]

Answer :  The [H] is increasing at the rate of 0.36 mol/L.s

Explanation :

The general rate of reaction is,

aA+bB\rightarrow cC+dD

Rate of reaction : It is defined as the change in the concentration of any one of the reactants or products per unit time.

The expression for rate of reaction will be :

\text{Rate of disappearance of A}=-\frac{1}{a}\frac{d[A]}{dt}

\text{Rate of disappearance of B}=-\frac{1}{b}\frac{d[B]}{dt}

\text{Rate of formation of C}=+\frac{1}{c}\frac{d[C]}{dt}

\text{Rate of formation of D}=+\frac{1}{d}\frac{d[D]}{dt}

Rate=-\frac{1}{a}\frac{d[A]}{dt}=-\frac{1}{b}\frac{d[B]}{dt}=+\frac{1}{c}\frac{d[C]}{dt}=+\frac{1}{d}\frac{d[D]}{dt}

From this we conclude that,

In the rate of reaction, A and B are the reactants and C and D are the products.

a, b, c and d are the stoichiometric coefficient of A, B, C and D respectively.

The negative sign along with the reactant terms is used simply to show that the concentration of the reactant is decreasing and positive sign along with the product terms is used simply to show that the concentration of the product is increasing.

The given rate of reaction is,

2D(g)+3E(g)+F(g)\rightarrow 2G(g)+H(g)

The expression for rate of reaction :

\text{Rate of disappearance of }D=-\frac{1}{2}\frac{d[D]}{dt}

\text{Rate of disappearance of }E=-\frac{1}{3}\frac{d[E]}{dt}

\text{Rate of disappearance of }F=-\frac{d[F]}{dt}

\text{Rate of formation of }G=+\frac{1}{2}\frac{d[G]}{dt}

\text{Rate of formation of }H=+\frac{d[H]}{dt}

\text{Rate of reaction}=-\frac{1}{2}\frac{d[D]}{dt}=-\frac{1}{3}\frac{d[E]}{dt}=-\frac{d[F]}{dt}=+\frac{1}{2}\frac{d[G]}{dt}=+\frac{d[H]}{dt}

Given:

-\frac{d[D]}{dt}=0.18mol/L.s

As,  

-\frac{1}{2}\frac{d[D]}{dt}=+\frac{d[H]}{dt}=0.18mol/L.s

and,

+\frac{d[H]}{dt}=2\times 0.18mol/L.s

+\frac{d[H]}{dt}=0.36mol/L.s

Thus, the [H] is increasing at the rate of 0.36 mol/L.s

Determine the volume of 3.30 mol of a gas at 25°C and 0.995 atm.
Alexxx [7]

Answer:

V = 81.14 L

Explanation:

Given data:

Volume of gas = ?

Number of moles = 3.30 mol

Temperature of gas = 25°C

Pressure of gas = 0.995 atm

Solution:

The given problem will be solve by using general gas equation,

PV = nRT

P= Pressure

V = volume

n = number of moles

R = general gas constant = 0.0821 atm.L/ mol.K

T = temperature in kelvin

Now we will convert the temperature.

25+273 = 298 K

now we will put the values in formula:

V = 3.30 mol 0.0821 atm.L/ mol.K   298 K / 0.995 atm

V = 80.74 L. atm / 0.995 atm

V = 81.14 L

What is the volume at stp of 720.0 ml of a gas collected at 20.0 °c and 3.00 atm pressure?
MArishka [77]
Combined gas law is 
       PV/T = K (constant)

P = Pressure
V = Volume
T = Temperature in Kelvin

For two situations, the combined gas law can be applied as,
     P₁V₁ / T₁ = P₂V₂ / T₂

P₁ = 3.00 atm                                     P₂ = standard pressure = 1 atm
V₁ = 720.0 mL                                    T₂ = standard temperature = 273 K
T₁ = (273 + 20) K = 293 K
  
By substituting,
 3.00 atm x 720.0 mL / 293 K = 1 atm x V₂ / 273 K
                                          V₂ = 2012.6 mL

hence the volume of gas at stp is 2012.6 mL
