Liquid nitrogen has a density of 0.808 g/mL and boils at 77 K. Researchers often purchase liquid nitrogen in insulated 195-L tan

ks. The liquid vaporizes quickly to gaseous nitrogen (which has a density of 1.15 g/L at room temperature and atmospheric pressure) when the liquid is removed from the tank. Suppose that all 195 L of liquid nitrogen in a tank accidentally vaporized in a lab that measured 10.00 m× 10.00 m× 2.50 m.What maximum fraction of the air in the room could be displaced bythe gaseous nitrogen?

Answer:

The nswer to the question is

The maximum fraction of the air in the room that could be displaced by the gaseous nitrogen is 0.548 or 54.8 %

Explanation:

To solve the question we note that

The density of the liquid nitrogen = 0.808g/mL and the volume is 195 L tank (vaporised)

Therefore since density = mass/volume we have

mass = Density × volume = 0.808 g/mL × 195 L × 1000 ml/L =157560 g

In gaseous form the liquid nitrogen density =1.15 g/L

That is density = mass/volume and volume = mass/density = 157560 g/(1.15g/L)  or

volume = 137008.69565 L

The dimension of the room = 10 m × 10 m × 2.5 m = 250 m³ and

1 m³ is equivalent to 1000 L, therefore 250 m³ = 250 m³  × 1000 L/m³ = 250000L

Therefore fraction of the volume occupied by the gaseous nitrogen =

137008.69565 L/250000 L = 0.548

Therefore the gaseous nitrogen occpies 54.8% of the room

Does potassium nitrate (KN03) incorporate ionic bonding, covalent bonding, or both? Explain.
ladessa [460]

Answer: KNO_3 incorporates both ionic bonding and covalent bonding.

Explanation:

A covalent bond is formed when an element shares its valence electron with another element. This bond is formed between two non metals.

An ionic bond is formed when an element completely transfers its valence electron to another element. The element which donates the electron is known as electropositive element and the element which accepts the electrons is known as electronegative element. This bond is formed between a metal and an non-metal.

For formation of a neutral ionic compound, the charges on cation and anion must be balanced. The cation is formed by loss of electrons by metals and anions are formed by gain of electrons by non metals.

Here potassium is having an oxidation state of +1 called as K^{+} cation and nitrate NO_3^{-} is an anion with oxidation state of -1. Thus they combine and their oxidation states are exchanged and written in simplest whole number ratios to give neutral KNO_3. NO_3^- is formed by sharing of electrons between two non metals nitrogen and oxygen.

Thus KNO_3 incorporates both ionic bonding and covalent bonding.

What are the two types of collisions? What is the difference between them? Types: a. Types: b. Compare and contrast the two type
mr_godi [17]

Answer:

The two types of collisions are :

Type a)

<u>Elastic collision</u>

Type b)

<u>Inelastic collision</u>

Explanation:

Collision : It is the event when two bodies collide with each other for small period of time.

During collision , the bodies exert force to each other.

Example :

When boxer hits with punches .

When bat hits the ball in cricket match.

So, collision is short duration interaction of two objects. When the objects collides , there is  change in their velocity.

All collision follow law of conservation of momentum . Their type is decided by , whether they follow conservation of energy also.

<u>Compare and contrast the two types</u>

a) Elastic collision : Those collision in which no loss or gain of kinetic energy will occur. They follow conservation of kinetic energy. Example : ideal gaseous molecule

b) Inelastic collision : Those collision in which Change in kinetic energy will occur. They do not follow conservation of kinetic energy.Almost all conservation are inelastic.

Here Kinetic energy get converted into other form of energy.
