Expansion

Explanation:

Expansion is the change is size of a body with increasing temperature and tension.

Bridges are built of iron. Iron thermally expands in the presence of increased temperature during the day. The length of the iron will increase by simple fractions. At night, when temperature drops, the bar returns back to its initial position.

  • The allowance for expansion of the metal is made in order to prevent tension within the structure.
  • Not doing this will cause the material to break since there is no free space for the bar to change shape.

While soils are an important part of the global carbon cycle, they are not a part of the nitrogen and sulfur cycles.
Vladimir79 [104]

The correct answer is - False.

The soils are part of most of the major cycles that take place on the Earth, mainly because they are in touch with the other spheres. The carbon dioxide, as well as the nitrogen and the sulfur cycles too, end up in the soil in more cases than not during their cycles. While some are formed in it and than released, like the sulfur, the carbon mostly gets in it though the roots of the plants, as well as the decomposing organisms, and the nitrogen ends up in the soil with the water.

The soil is one of the most important pieces in the cycles of most of the gases on Earth, and without it, some will not even be possible.

A gas occupies 18.5L at stp. what volume will it occupy at 735 torr and 57°c?
olga nikolaevna [1]

 The volume that  will  be occupied at 735  torr and 57 c  is 23.12 L


 <u><em>calculation</em></u>

  • <u><em> </em></u> At STP   temperature=273 k  and  pressure=760 torr
  • <u><em> </em></u>by use of combined  gas formula

that is P1V1/T1= P2V2/T2

where; P1 =760 torr

           T1= 273  K

           V1= 18.5 L

          P2= 735 torr

         T2=  57+273= 330 K

          V2=?

  • by making   V2 the formula of subject

     V2= T2P1V1/P2T1

       V2=  [(18.5L  x 330 k  x 760 torr)/(735 torr x 273 k)]= 23.12  L

Number of grams of hcl that can react with 0.500 grams of Al(OH)3
vlabodo [156]

Answer:

0.7g of HCl

Explanation:

First, let us write a balanced equation for the reaction between HCl and Al(OH)3.

This is illustrated below:

Al(OH)3 + 3HCl —> AlCl3 + 3H2O

Next, let us obtain the masses of Al(OH)3 and HCl that reacted together according to the equation. This can be achieved as shown below:

Molar Mass of Al(OH)3 = 27 + 3(16+1)

= 27 + 3(17) = 27 + 51 = 78g/mol.

Molar Mass of HCl = 1 + 35.5 = 36.5g/mol

Mass of HCl from the balanced equation = 3 x 36.5 = 109.5g

Now we can obtain the mass of HCl that would react with 0.5g of Al(OH)3. This can be achieved as follow:

Al(OH)3 + 3HCl —> AlCl3 + 3H2O

From the equation above,

78g of Al(OH)3 reacted with 109.5g of HCl.

Therefore, 0.5g of Al(OH)3 will react with = (0.5 x 109.5)/78 = 0.7g of HCl
