1. A student has a petri dish packed with a layer of marbles. Which of the following activities should the student perform to de
Sindrei [870]

Answer: A.) Removing a few marbles from the petri dish and stirring the rest around as energy is added

B) The high temperature makes the gas molecules spread apart according to Charles's law because this law describes how a gas will behave at constant pressure.

Explanation: The phase transition from solid to liquid involves the use of energy to make the molecules present in solid to break the inter molecular forces and to start moving away from each other as in liquid. The molecules in solid are closely packed whereas in liquids they are loosely packed. Thus less number of molecules are present per unit volume in a liquid. Thus the marbles have to be removed to show less density and the energy has to supplied. Removing all but two marbles from the petri dish and shaking them vigorously as energy is added will give us a more disorderd state called gas in which the molecules are very far apart and the density is least.

B) According to Boyle's law the pressure is inversely proportional to the volume of the gas at constant temperature and constant number of moles. P\propto \frac{1}{V}     (At constant temperature and number of moles)

According to Charle's law the volume is directly proportional to the temperature of the gas at constant pressure and constant number of moles.

V\propto T    (At constant pressure and number of moles)

Thus as temperature of the gas increases , the volume also increases, and the density decreases. the gas becomes lighter and thus rises up.

if the Celsius temperature of a gas at constant pressure is increased from 10 Celsius to 20 Celsius the volume is
svet-max [94.6K]

Answer:

               The volume is increased.

Explanation:

                     According to <em>Charles' Law</em>, " <em>at constant pressure the volume and temperature of the gas are directly proportional to each other</em>". Mathematically this law is presented as;

                                                    V₁ / T₁ = V₂ / T₂   -----(1)

In statement the data given is,

T₁  =  10 °C  =  283.15 K                    ∴  K  =  273.15 + °C

T₂  =  20 °C  =  293.15 K

So, it is clear that the temperature is being increased hence, we will find an increase in volume. Let us assume that the starting volume is 100 L, so,

V₁  =  100 L

V₂  =  Unknown

Now, we will arrange equation 1 for V₂ as,

                                                    V₂  =  V₁ × T₂ / T₁

Putting values,

                                     V₂  = 100 L × 293.15 K / 283.15 K

                                     V₂  = 103.52 L

Hence, it is proved that by increasing temperature from 10 °C to 20 °C resulted in the increase of Volume from 100 L to 103.52 L.

Enter a chemical equation for HI(aq) showing how it is an acid or a base according to the Arrhenius definition. Consider that st
jek_recluse [69]

Answer:

HI (aq) → H⁺ (aq) +  I⁻ (aq)

HI (aq) +  H₂O(l)  → H₃O⁺ (aq) +  I⁻ (aq)

Explanation:

The Arrhenius acid concept indicates that a substance behaves like acid if it produces hydrogen ions H⁺ or hydronium ions H₃O⁺ in water. A substance will be classified as a base if it produces OH⁻  hydroxide ions in water. This way of defining acids and bases works well for aqueous solutions.

When we mix HI (aq) and water, we are increasing [H₃O⁺]

HI (aq) → H⁺ (aq) +  I⁻ (aq)

HI (aq) +  H₂O(l)  → H₃O⁺ (aq) +  I⁻ (aq)
