<u>Answer:</u> The correct answer is Option b.

<u>Explanation:</u>

This solubility of a gas with change in pressure is described by Henry's Law.

This law states that the mass of a gas dissolved in a given volume of the liquid at constant temperature is directly proportional to the pressure of the gas present in equilibrium with the liquid.

Mathematically,

$m\propto p$

or,

$m=Kp$

Where, m = mass of the gas dissolved in a unit volume of the solvent

K = Proportionality constant

p = Pressure of the gas in equilibrium with the solvent.

With increase in pressure, the mass of gas dissolved will also increase and vice-versa.

Hence, the correct answer is Option b.

What mass of ammonia can be produced if 13.4 grams of nitrogen gas reacted ?

aivan3 [116]

Answer:

If 13.4 grams of nitrogen gas reacts we'll produce 16.3 grams of ammonia

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Mass of nitrogen gas (N2) = 13.4 grams

Molar mass of N2 = 28 g/mol

Molar mass of NH3 = 17.03 g/mol

Step 2: The balanced equation

N2 + 3H2 → 2NH3

Step 3: Calculate moles of N2

Moles N2 = Mass N2 / molar mass N2

Moles N2 = 13.4 grams / 28.00 g/mol

Moles N2 = 0.479 moles

Step 4: Calculate moles of NH3

For 1 mol N2 we need 3 moles H2 to produce 2 moles NH3

For 0.479 moles N2 we'll produce 2*0.479 = 0.958 moles

Step 5: Calculate mass of NH3

Mass of NH3 = moles NH3 * molar mass NH3

Mass NH3 = 0.958 moles * 17.03 g/mol

Mass NH3 = 16.3 grams

If 13.4 grams of nitrogen gas reacts we'll produce 16.3 grams of ammonia

An unknown metal has a mass of 86.8 g. When 5040 J of heat are added to the sample, the sample temperature changes by 64.7 ∘ C .

grandymaker [24]

Answer: The specific heat of the unknown metal is $0.897J/g^0C$

Explanation:

The quantity of heat required to raise the temperature of a substance by one degree Celsius is called the specific heat capacity.

$Q=m\times c\times \Delta T$

Q = Heat absorbed= $5040$ Joules

m= mass of substance = 86.8 g

c = specific heat capacity = ?

Initial temperature of the water = $T_i$

Final temperature of the water = $T_f$

Change in temperature , $\Delta T=T_f-T_i=(64.7)^0C$

Putting in the values, we get:

$5040=86.8\times c\times 64.7^0C$

$c=0.897J/g^0C$

The specific heat of the unknown metal is $0.897J/g^0C$

Characteristic of meteor

Sati [7]

Explanation:

Many meteorites have iron or nickel in them, so they are heavier (and denser) than Earth rocks. Some meteorites have pits (regmaglypts) on the outside, which look like deep thumbprints. Meteorites are not bubbly, and do not have holes. Meteorite are usually not round.

What is the difference between mass and weight?

Olin [163]

Explanation:

The mass of an object is a measure of the object's inertial property, or the amount of matter it contains. The weight of an object is a measure of the force exerted on the object by gravity, or the force needed to support it. The pull of gravity on the earth gives an object a downward acceleration of about 9.8 m/s2.
