Answer: D. They are made up of hard spheres that are in random motion.

Explanation:

A gas is a <u>state of aggregation of matter</u> in which, under certain conditions of temperature and pressure, <u>its molecules interact weakly with each other, without forming molecular bonds</u>, adopting the shape and volume of the container that contains them and tending to separate everything possible because of its <u>high concentration of kinetic energy</u>.

The molecules of a gas are practically <u>free</u> and have the ability to be distributed throughout the space in which they are contained because <u>the gravitational forces and attraction between them are practically negligible</u> compared to the speed at which they move. .

Therefore, gas molecules do not travel specific trajectories or vibrate in a stationary position, instead <u>they move quickly and randomly through the entire space of the container that contains them.</u>

Given the equilibrium constants for the following two reactions at a 298K:NiO(s) + H2(g) ⇌ Ni(s) + H2O(g) Kc=40NiO(s) +CO(g) ⇌ N
shusha [124]

Answer:

The value  is  K_C =  \frac{40}{600}

Explanation:

From the question

   The equation given is  

            NiO(s) + H2(g) ⇌ Ni(s) + H2O(g) Kc=40          (1)

            NiO(s) +CO(g) ⇌ Ni(s) +CO2(g) Kc=600         (2)

Generally the reverse of the second equation as shown below

            Ni(s) +CO2(g) ⇌  NiO(s) + CO(g)                 (3)

The equilibrium constant becomes    K_c  ' =  \frac{1}{600}  

 Now  adding  1  and  3 we obtain

      NiO(s) + H2(g)+ Ni(s) +CO2(g) ⇌ Ni(s) + H2O(g)+NiO(s) + CO(g)        

               CO2(g) + H2(g) ⇌ CO(g) + H2O(g)

Hence the equilibrium constant for the resulting equation is mathematically evaluated as

           K_C =  K_c' *  K_c

=>       K_C =  \frac{1}{600}  *  40

=>         K_C =  \frac{40}{600}

An isotope, X, of a particular element has an atomic number of 8 and a mass number of 18. Therefore:
GarryVolchara [31]

Answer:

D

Explanation:

Because the atomic number is 8, we can see that it is indeed an isotope of oxygen. If the mass number is 18, this means that the protons and neutrons added together = 18, so there are 10 neutrons. It does not have an atomic mass of 15.9994 like the element on the periodic table, however, as this is a confirmed isotope and not an average.

Why is Newton's first law of motion is sometimes called the law of inertia
zimovet [89]

Answer:

The reason why Newtons first law of motion is sometimes called the law of inertia is because it states that if the object is in motion, it will not rest unless an unbalanced force acts on the object.
