Answer:

A and E

Explanation:

Backbone is the part of skeletal system and is made of 26 vertebrae in total. The backbone and bones of lower limbs together serve to support the body's weight. Backbone surrounds and protects the spinal cord. Since the vertebrae of backbone are joints together by synovial joints, it allows the flexibility and movement of organisms.

A gas occupies a volume of 60 L at a temperature of 0.5 K. What will the volume be at 4 K?

Flauer [41]

Answer:

480 L

Explanation:

In order to solve this question, you should be familiar with gas laws. (I will attach a picture showing all of them under my answer.) In this question in particular, however, we only need Charles's Law because we're dealing with temperature and volume.

As we can see, Charles's Law is:

$\frac{V_{1} }{T_{1} } = \frac{V_{2} }{T_{2} }$

or, initial volume over initial temperature equals final volume over final temperature.

In this question, 60 L is our initial volume, and 0.5 K is our initial temperature (K being Kelvin). We are only given 4 K as our final temperature. We are asked to solve for the final volume. Let's set up the equation and solve for $V_{2}$ :

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

(60) / (0.5) = $V_{2}$ / (4)

↓

120 = $V_{2}$ / 4

×4 ×4

↓

$V_{2}$ = 480 L

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

There's our answer! Feel free to comment if you have any questions about my answer :)

A gas has a volume of 590 mL at temperature of -55.0 C. What volume will the gas occupy at 30.0 C show your work

DENIUS [597]

Data:
$V_{initial} = 590\:mL$
$T_{initial} = -55.0^0C$
converting to Kelvin
TK = TC + 273
TK = -55.0 + 273 → TK = 218.0 → $T_{initial} = 218.0\:K$
$V_{final} = ? (in\:milliliters)$
$T_{final} = 30.0^0C$
TK = TC + 273
TK = 30.0 + 273 → TK = 303.0 → $T_{final} = 303.0\:K$

By the first Law of Charles and Gay-Lussac, we have:
$\frac{ V_{i} }{ T_{i} } = \frac{ V_{f} }{ T_{f} }$

Solving:
$\frac{ V_{i} }{ T_{i} } = \frac{ V_{f} }{ T_{f} }$
$\frac{ 590 }{ 218.0 } = \frac{ V_{f} }{ 303.0 }$
Product of extremes equals product of means:
$218.0* V_{f} = 590*303.0$
$218.0 V_{f} = 178770$
$V_{f} = \frac{178770}{218.0}$
$\boxed{\boxed{V_{f} \approx 820.04\:mL}}\end{array}}\qquad\quad\checkmark$
