a) Gas particles have most of their mass concentrated in the nucleus of the atom.

b) The moving particles undergo perfectly elastic collisions with the walls of the container.

c) The forces of attraction and repulsion between the particles are insignificant.

d) The average kinetic energy of the particles is directly proportional to the absolute temperature.

e) All of the above are postulates of the kinetic molecular theory.

Gas particles have most of their mass concentrated in the nucleus of the atom.

Answer: Option A.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Kinetic Molecular Theory expresses that gas particles are in consistent movement and show flawlessly versatile crashes. Motor Molecular Theory can be utilized to clarify both Charles' and Boyle's Laws. The normal active vitality of an assortment of gas particles is straightforwardly corresponding to total temperature as it were.

The kinetic theory of gases is a significantly critical, however straightforward model of the thermodynamic conduct of gases with which numerous important ideas of thermodynamics were built up.

A balloon vendor at a street fair is using a tank of helium to fill her balloons. The tank has a volume of 124.0 L and a pressur

amm1812

Answer:

She lost 50.88 moles

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

The volume of the tank = 124.0 L

The initial pressure = 104.0 atm

The temperature = 24.0 °C = 297 K

The pressure drops to 94.0 atm

The temperature stays constant at 297 K

Step 2: Calculate the initial number of moles

p*V = n*R*T

n = (p*V)/(R*T)

⇒with p = the initial pressure = 104.0 atm

⇒with V = the initial volume = 124.0 L

⇒with n = the initial number of moles = TO BE DETERMINED

⇒with R = the gas constant = 0.08206 L*atm/mol*K

⇒ with T = the temperature= 297 K

n = (104.0*124.0)/(0.08206*297)

n = 529.14 moles

Step 3: Calculate final number of moles

p*V = n*R*T

n = (p*V)/(R*T)

⇒with p = the initial pressure = 94.0 atm

⇒with V = the initial volume = 124.0 L

⇒with n = the initial number of moles = TO BE DETERMINED

⇒with R = the gas constant = 0.08206 L*atm/mol*K

⇒ with T = the temperature= 297 K

n = (94.0*124.0)/(0.08206*297)

n = 478.26 moles

Step 4: Calculate the difference of moles

529.14 moles - 478.26 moles = 50.88 moles

She lost 50.88 moles

A sample of magnesium is burned in oxygen to form magnesium oxide. What mass of oxygen is consumed if 74.62 g magnesium oxide is

lana [24]

74.62 g of magnesium oxide is formed from 45.00 g magnesium so 74.62-45.00= 29.62 g of oxygen is consumed or in other words a new compound is formed in the burning of magnesium in oxygen with a heavier mass than the pure magnesium.

. In a titration, a 25.0 mL sample of 0.150 M HCl is neutralized with 44.45 mL of Ba(OH)2. a. Write the balanced molecular equat

choli [55]

Answer:

Equation of reaction:

a) 2HCl + Ba(OH)2 ==> CaCl2 + 2H2O

b) Molarity of base = 0.042 M.

Explanation:

Using titration equation

CAVA/CBVB = NA/NB

Where NA is the number of mole of acid = 2

NB is the number of mole of base = 1

CA is the molarity of acid =0.15M

CB is the molarity of base = to be calculated

VA is the volume of acid = 25 ml

VB is the volume of base = 44.45mL

Substituting

0.15×25/CB×44.45 = 2/1

Therefore CB =0.15×25×1/44.45×2

CB = 0.042 M.
