Kinetic energy is the energy possessed by the body when in motion. It is calculated by 1/2mv² where m is the mass of the body and v is the velocity.
Baring in mind that energy can not be created or destroyed but can only be transformed from one form to another (law of conservation of energy) then when two bodies collide the total kinetic energy of the two particles stays the same (kinetic energy is preserved). This is in the case of perfectly elastic collision, however, during inelastic collisions the kinetic energy is transformed to other forms of energy such as heat, sound and energy used in bond breakage.

The total volume of the gas produced, given the data from the question is 11.84 L

<h3>How to determine the mole of (NH₄)₂CO₃</h3>
  • Mass of (NH₄)₂CO₃ = 11.83 g
  • Molar mass of (NH₄)₂CO₃ = 96 g/mol
  • Mole of (NH₄)₂CO₃ =?

Mole = mass / molar mass

Mole of (NH₄)₂CO₃ = 11.83 / 96

Mole of (NH₄)₂CO₃ = 0.123 mole

<h3>How to determine the volume of NH₃</h3>

Balanced equation

(NH₄)₂CO₃ -> 2NH₃(g) + CO₂(g) + H₂O(g)

From the balanced equation above,

1 mole of (NH₄)₂CO₃ decomposed to produce 2 moles of NH₃

Therefore,

0.123 mole of (NH₄)₂CO₃ will decompose to produce = 0.123 × 2 = 0.246 mole of NH₃

Thus, we can determine the volume of NH₃ produced by using the ideal gas equation as follow:

  • Temperature (T) = 22 °C = 22 + 273 = 295 K
  • Pressure (P) = 1.02 bar
  • Gas constant (R) = 0.08314 bar.L/Kmol
  • Number of mole (n) = 0.246 moles
  • Volume of NH₃ (V) =?

PV = nRT

Divide both side by P

V = nRT / P

V = (0.246 × 0.08314 × 295) / 1.02

Volume of NH₃ = 5.92 L

<h3>How to determine the volume of CO₂</h3>

Balanced equation

(NH₄)₂CO₃ -> 2NH₃(g) + CO₂(g) + H₂O(g)

From the balanced equation above,

1 mole of (NH₄)₂CO₃ decomposed to produce 1 moles of CO₂

Therefore,

0.123 mole of (NH₄)₂CO₃ will also decompose to produce = 0.123 mole of CO₂

Thus, we can determine the volume of CO₂ produced by using the ideal gas equation as follow:

  • Temperature (T) = 22 °C = 22 + 273 = 295 K
  • Pressure (P) = 1.02 bar
  • Gas constant (R) = 0.08314 bar.L/Kmol
  • Number of mole (n) = 0.123 moles
  • Volume of CO₂ (V) =?

PV = nRT

Divide both side by P

V = nRT / P

V = (0.123 × 0.08314 × 295) / 1.02

Volume of CO₂ = 2.96 L

<h3>How to determine the volume of H₂O</h3>

Balanced equation

(NH₄)₂CO₃ -> 2NH₃(g) + CO₂(g) + H₂O(g)

From the balanced equation above,

1 mole of (NH₄)₂CO₃ decomposed to produce 1 moles of H₂O

Therefore,

0.123 mole of (NH₄)₂CO₃ will also decompose to produce = 0.123 mole of H₂O

Thus, we can determine the volume of H₂O produced by using the ideal gas equation as follow:

  • Temperature (T) = 22 °C = 22 + 273 = 295 K
  • Pressure (P) = 1.02 bar
  • Gas constant (R) = 0.08314 bar.L/Kmol
  • Number of mole (n) = 0.123 moles
  • Volume of H₂O (V) =?

PV = nRT

Divide both side by P

V = nRT / P

V = (0.123 × 0.08314 × 295) / 1.02

Volume of H₂O = 2.96 L

<h3>How to determine the total volume of gas produced</h3>
  • Volume of NH₃ = 5.92 L
  • Volume of CO₂ = 2.96 L
  • Volume of H₂O = 2.96 L
  • Total volume of gas =?

Total volume = 5.92 + 2.96 + 2.96

Total volume of gas = 11.84 L

You are walking on a beach and see a split. Explain how a split could have formed from a rocky headland.
kirza4 [7]

Hello, Lindaparker, a spit  could form from a rocky headland where prevailing winds would blow at an angle to the rocky headland, gradually depositing sand and shingle at that place. A spit is a permanent land form resulting from marine deposition and wind deposition. It is usually a long and narrow accumulation of sand or shingle with one joined to the land and the other end projecting at   a narrow angle out into the sea. Salt marshes sometimes form on the sheltered side of a spit.

The pressure of a fixed mass of gas is increased from 100 kPa to 600 kPa at a constant temperature. The new volume of the gas is
Dima020 [189]

Answer: The new volume of the gas is smaller.

Explanation:

Volume and pressure are inversely proportional (as one goes up, one goes down). So as you increase the pressure, you decrease the volume.
