Sound waves need to travel through a medium such as a solid, liquid, or gas. The sound waves move through each of these mediums by vibrating the molecules in the matter. The molecules in solids are packed very tightly. Liquids are not packed as tightly as solids. And gases are very loosely packed. The spacing of the molecules enables sound to travel much faster through a solid than a gas. Sound travels about four times faster and farther in water than it does in air. This is why whales can communicate over huge distances in the oceans. Sound waves travel about thirteen times faster in wood than air. They also travel faster on hotter days as the molecules bump into each other more often than when it is cold.
This compound is also known as Barium Carbonate. 1 mole is equal to 1 moles BaCO3, or 197.3359<span> grams.</span>
Explanation:
From the knowledge of law of multiple proportions,
mass ratio of S to O in SO:
mass of S : mass of O
= 32 : 16
= 32/16
= 2/1
mass ratio of S to O in SO2:
= mass of S : 2 × mass of O
= 32 : 2 × 16
= 32/32
= 1/1
ratio of mass ratio of S to O in SO to mass ratio of S to O in SO2:
= 2/1 ÷ 1/1
= 2
Thus, the S to O mass ratio in SO is twice the S to O mass ratio in SO2.
Answer:
3.1atm
Explanation:
Given parameters:
Volume of gas = 2L
Number of moles = 0.25mol
Temperature = 25°C = 25 + 273 = 298K
Unknown:
Pressure of the gas = ?
Solution:
To solve this problem, we use the ideal gas equation.
This is given as;
PV = nRT
P is the pressure
V is the volume
n is the number of moles
R is the gas constant = 0.082atmdm³mol⁻¹K⁻¹
T is the temperature
P = 
Now insert the parameters and solve;
P = 
= 3.1atm
Molarity is defined as the ratio of number of moles to the volume of solution in litres.
The mathematical expression is given as:
Here, molarity is equal to 1.43 M and volume is equal to 785 mL.
Convert mL into L
As, 1 mL = 0.001 L
Thus, volume = 
= 0.785 L
Rearrange the formula of molarity in terms of number of moles:
n = 
= 1.12255 mole
Now, Number of moles = 
Molar mass of potassium hydroxide = 56.10 g/mol
1.12255 mole = 
mass in g = 
= 62.97 g
Hence, mass of 
= 62.97 g
