Answer:

The average kinetic energy of a gas depends only on its temperature.

Explanation:

The average kinetic energy of particles in a gas can be found using the equation

$\displaystyle \text{Average K.E.} = \frac{3}{2}k\cdot T$ ,

where

$k$ is the Stefan-Boltzmann constant, and
$T$ is the absolute temperature of this gas (the one in degree Kelvins.)

As seen in this equation, the average kinetic energy of particles in a gas depends only on the temperature of the gas. Also, since the question is asking for the average not the total kinetic energy, the number of particles in this gas doesn't matter, either.

10. (2 points) What is the process by which a solute forms a solution in a solvent. A) calisthenics B) bumping C) dissolution D)

Triss [41]

Answer: (C) Dissolution is the process by which a solute form a solution in a solvent.

Explanation: Dissolution can be described as the process by which a solute dissolves in a solvent to give a solvent.

The solute may be a solid, liquid or gas and solvent is usually a liquid but can also be liquid, gas or supercritical fluid. The most common solvent is water and it is referred to as the universal solvent.

Example are:

1.Stirring of sugar in water.

In this case the solute is the sugar and the solvent is water.

2.Organic substances dissolves readily in solvent like kerosene and benzene and they are known as non-polar solvent while the organic substances are the solute

While exploring a coal mine, scientists found plant fossils in the ceiling of the mine which had been preserved by an earthquake

ale4655 [162]

Answer:

11552.45 years

Explanation:

Given that:

Half life = 5730 years

$t_{1/2}=\frac{\ln2}{k}$

Where, k is rate constant

So,

$k=\frac{\ln2}{t_{1/2}}$

$k=\frac{\ln2}{5730}\ years^{-1}$

The rate constant, k = 0.00012 years⁻¹

Using integrated rate law for first order kinetics as:

$[A_t]=[A_0]e^{-kt}$

Where,

$[A_t]$ is the concentration at time t

$[A_0]$ is the initial concentration

Given that:

The rate constant, k = 0.00012 years⁻¹

Initial concentration $[A_0]$ = 160.0 counts/min

Final concentration $[A_t]$ = 40.0 counts/min

Time = ?

Applying in the above equation, we get that:-

$40.0=160.0e^{-0.00012\times t}$

$e^{-0.00012t}=\frac{1}{4}$

$-0.00012t=\ln \left(\frac{1}{4}\right)$

$t=11552.45\ years$

Carbon-12 and carbon-13 are isotopes of carbon.

ohaa [14]

Answer:

Isotopes of an element share the same number of protons but have different numbers of neutrons. Let's use carbon as an example. There are three isotopes of carbon found in nature – carbon-12, carbon-13, and carbon-14. All three have six protons, but their neutron numbers - 6, 7, and 8, respectively - all differ.
