Which phrase best describes the path of a light wave?

VikaD [51]

Answer: D

Explanation:

Light waves travel in straight paths called rays. Unlike sound, where waves have to travel through matter to be heard, light waves do not have to travel through matter to be seen. Instead, rays travel in a straight path until they hit an object. A ray's straight path is the path of light

2. The temperature of a gas is increased from 125⁰C to 182⁰C inside of a rigid container. The original pressure of the gas was 1

Lina20 [59]

P1/T1 = P2/T2

125⁰C = 398.15 k

182⁰C = 455.15 k

1.22/398.15 = p2/455.15

p2= 1.39atm

the pressure of the gas be after the temperature change is 1.39 atm

Calculate the pressure of 2.50 Liters of a gas at 25.0oC if it has a volume of 4.50 Liters at

MariettaO [177]

Answer:

P_2 =0.51 atm

Explanation:

Given that:

Volume (V1) = 2.50 L

Temperature (T1) = 298 K

Volume (V2) = 4.50 L

at standard temperature and pressure;

Pressure (P1) = 1 atm

Temperature (T2) = 273 K

Pressure P2 = ??

Using combined gas law:

$\dfrac{P_1V_1}{T_1} = \dfrac{P_2V_2}{T_2} \\ \\ \dfrac{1 *2.5}{298} = \dfrac{P_2*4.5}{273}$

$0.008389261745 \times 273 = 4.5P_2$

$P_2 =\dfrac{0.008389261745 \times 273 }{4.5}$

$P_2 =0.51 \ atm$

Define the following: Bronsted-Lowry acid - Lewis acid- Strong acid - (5 points) Problem 6: Consider the following acid base rea

Allushta [10]

Answer: Yes, $HCl$ is a strong acid.

acid = $HCl$ , conjugate base = $Cl^-$ , base = $H_2O$ , conjugate acid = $H_3O^+$

Explanation:

According to the Bronsted-Lowry conjugate acid-base theory, an acid is defined as a substance which looses donates protons and thus forming conjugate base and a base is defined as a substance which accepts protons and thus forming conjugate acid.

Yes $HCl$ is a strong acid as it completely dissociates in water to give $H^+$ ions.

$HCl\rightarrow H^++Cl^-$

For the given chemical equation:

$HCl+H_2O\rightarrow H_3O^-+Cl^-$

Here, $HCl$ is loosing a proton, thus it is considered as an acid and after losing a proton, it forms $Cl^-$ which is a conjugate base.

And, $H_2O$ is gaining a proton, thus it is considered as a base and after gaining a proton, it forms $H_3O^+$ which is a conjugate acid.

Thus acid = $HCl$

conjugate base = $Cl^-$

base = $H_2O$

conjugate acid = $H_3O^+$ .

A molecule has the empirical formula C4H6O. If its molecular weight is determined to be about 212 g/mol, what is the most likely

krok68 [10]

Answer:

The molecular formula is C12H18O3

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

The empirical formula is C4H6O

Molecular weight is 212 g/mol

atomic mass of C = 12 g/mol

atomic mass of H = 1 g/mol

atomic mass of O = 16 g/mol

Step 2: Calculate the molar mass of the empirical formula

Molar mass = 4* 12 + 6*1 +16

Molar mass = 70 g/mol

Step 3: Calculate the molecular formula

We have to multiply the empirical formula by n

n = the molecular weight of the empirical formula / the molecular weight of the molecular formula

n = 70 /212 ≈ 3

We have to multiply the empirical formula by 3

3*(C4H6O- = C12H18O3

The molecular formula is C12H18O3
