What is atmospheric pressure? -------> Atmospheric pressure is a force in an area pushed against a surface by the weight of the atmosphere of Earth, a layer of air.

Why does the atmosphere exert pressure? -------> Because gas particles in the air—like particles of all fluids—are constantly moving and bumping into things, so they exert pressure.

What is the value of atmospheric pressure at sea level, in newtons per square centimeter? -------> Atmospheric pressure at sea level is about 10 N/cm2 or 100 kPa or about 10 m of water or about 760 mm of mercury, but varies with the weather, and of course altitude.

I hope this helps and have a great day!

. Sulfur dioxide can be produced in the laboratory by the reaction of hydrochloric acid and a sulfite salt such as sodium sulfit

shutvik [7]

Answer:

Mass of SO₂ can be made from 25.0 g of Na₂SO₃ and 22 g of HCl = 12.672 g

Explanation:

SO₂( sulfur dioxide) can be produced in the lab. by the reaction of hydrochloric acid & sulphite salt such as sodium.

the balanced chemical equation is as follows

Na₂SO₃ + 2 HCl → 2 NaCl + SO₂ + H₂O

Moles of Na₂SO₃ = $\frac{Mass}{Molecular mass} =\frac{25}{126} = 0.198$

Moles of HCl = $\frac{mass}{molecular mass}=\frac{22}{36.5}= 0.6$

using mole ratio method to find limiting reagent

For sodium sulfite $\frac{mole}{stoichiometry} = \frac{0.198}{1}= 0.198$

for HCl $\frac{mole}{stoichiometry} = \frac{0.6}{2}= 0.3$

since sodium sulfite is limiting reactant for above chemical reaction

1 mole of Na₂SO₃ produce 1 mole of SO₂

0.198 mole of Na₂SO₃ produce 0.198 mole of SO₂

∴ Mass of SO₂ produce = mole x molar mass of SO₂

= 0.198 x 64

= 12.672 g

Two isotopes of hydrogen fuse to form a neutron plus the larger element,A) beryllium.B) carbon.C) deuterium.D) helium.

Nezavi [6.7K]

Answer: D) helium.

Explanation:

Nuclear fission is a process which involves the conversion of a heavier nuclei into two or more small and stable nuclei along with the release of energy.

$_{92}^{235}\textrm{U}+_0^1\textrm{n}\rightarrow _{56}^{143}Ba+_{36}^{90}Kr+3_0^1\textrm{n}$

Nuclear fusion is a process which involves the conversion of two small nuclei to form a heavy nuclei along with release of energy.

Example: $_1^2\textrm{H}+_1^3\textrm{H}\rightarrow _2^4\textrm{He}+_0^1\textrm{n}+\text{energy}$

Thus when deuterium and tritium , the two isotopes of hydrogen are fused, a heavier nuclei helium is being formed from two smaller nuclei releasing a neutron.
