1.08 atm is the pressure for a certain tire in atmosphere.

<u>Explanation:</u>

One kilo pascal (1 kPa) corresponds to 1000 pascal. Another common unit used for pressure is atmosphere (symbolised as ‘atm’). 1 atm refers the standard atmospheric pressures and corresponds to 760 mm Hg and 101.3 kPa. Atmospheric pressures are commonly referred as square inches (psi)/ pounds.

  1 \mathrm{atm}=101.3 \mathrm{kPa}=101,325 \mathrm{Pa}=760 \mathrm{mm} \mathrm{Hg}=760 \text { torr }=14.7 \mathrm{lb} / \mathrm{in}^{2}(\mathrm{psi})

Given:

The air pressure for a certain tire = 109 kPa

We need to find pressure in atmospheres

So, we know,

1 atm = 101.3 kPa

Hence,

\frac{109 \mathrm{kPa}}{1} \times \frac{1 \mathrm{atm}}{101.3 \mathrm{kPa}}=1.076=1.08 \mathrm{atm}

1.08 atm is the pressure for a certain tire in atmosphere.

Readme [11.4K]

Explanation:

Most reagent forms are going to absorb water from the air; they're called "hygroscopic".  Water presence can have a drastic impact on the experiment being performed  For fact, it increases the reagent's molecular weight, meaning that anything involving a very specific molarity (the amount of molecules in the final solution) will not function properly.

Heating will help to eliminate water, although some chemicals don't react well to heat, so it shouldn't be used for all.  A dessicated environment is simply a means to  "dry."  That allows the reagent with little water in the air to attach with.

Examination of the first few successive ionization energies for a given element usually reveals a large jump between two ionizat
gladu [14]

Answer:

See Explanation

Explanation:

Ionization energy refers to the energy required to remove an electron from an atom. Metals have lower ionization energy than non metals since ionization energy increases across a period.

One thing that we must have in mind is that it takes much more energy to remove an electron from an inner filled shell than it takes to remove an electron from an outermost incompletely filled shell.

Now let us consider the case of magnesium which has two outermost electrons. Between IE2 and IE3 we have now moved to an inner filled shell(IE3 refers to removal of electrons from the inner second shell) and a lot of energy is required to remove an electron from this inner filled shell, hence the jump.

For aluminium having three outermost electrons, there is a jump between IE3 and IE4 because IE4 deals with electron removal from a second inner filled shell and a lot of energy is involved in the process hence the jump.

Hence a jump occurs each time electrons are removed from an inner filled shell.

Can the excess reactant control the percentage yield
katrin2010 [14]

Explanation:

when one reactants is in excess, there will always be some left over. The other reactants becomes limiting factor and controls show much of each product is produced.while using excess percentage yields this is at the expense of atom economy.
