Answer:

d. a proton attracting an electron

Explanation:

Electrostatic force is the interaction between bodies that have electrical charges

a and b

The neutrons are particles that have no charge, therefore there are no electrostatic forces acting

Electrons are negatively charged particles and when they interact with each other they repel because they have the same charge

Electrons are particles with negative charge and protons with a positive charge, and when interacting with each other they attract because they have different charge

C. Magma from venus mantle erupted as lava.

Explanation:

A volcano is a land form which results from the eruption of molten rocks (lava) on the surface. Volcanic rocks are a special type of igneous rock that forms when molten rock cools and solidifies on the surface.

For a planet like Venus which is presently not active and little to no movement occurs within the plates, the volcanisim must have occurred when the planet was relatively young and it must have been millions of years ago.

It is widely believed that Venus was geologically active in times past. Mantle generated lava must have solidified on the surface in times past to have formed the volcano.

Evaluating other options:

Impact of space objects on Venus would lead to the formation of a crater which is a depression on the surface. The rock would be mostly metamorphic.

If water was ever present in Venus, they would have produced sedimentary rocks instead. The erosive power of water is not high enough to cut through the crust. Also, water would not aid the formation of volcanoes.

Heat is not enough to from volcanoes. Other factors are also in play.

A horizontal cylinder equipped with a frictionless piston contains 785 cm3 of steam at 400 K and 125 kPa pressure. A total of 83

guapka [62]

Answer:

a. 478.69 K

b. 939.43 $cm^{3}$

c. 19.30 J

d. 64.5J

Explanation:

From the question, we can identify the following;

$V_{o}$ = 785 $cm^{3}$ = 0.000785 $m^{3}$

$T_{o}$ = 400K

$P_{o}$ = 125 Kpa = 125 000 Pa

Using the ideal gas equation,

PV = nRT

where R is the molar gas constant = 8.314 $m^{3}$ ⋅Pa⋅ $K^{-1}$ ⋅ $mol^{-1}$

Thus, n = PV/RT = (125000 × 0.000785)/(8.314 × 400) = 0.03 mol

a. Steam temperature in K

To calculate this, we use the constant pressure process;

q = nΔH

Where q is 83.8J according to the question

Thus;

83.8 = 0.03 × [34980 + 35.5 $T_{1}$ - (34980 + 35.5 $T_{o}$ )]

83.8 = (0.03 × 35.5) ( $T_{1}$ - 400K)

83.8 = 1.065 ( $T_{1}$ - 400)

78.69 = ( $T_{1}$ - 400)

$T_{1}$ = 400 + 78.69

$T_{1}$ = 478.69 K

b. Final cylinder volume

To calculate this, we make use of the Charles' law(Temperature and pressure are directly proportional)

$V_{1}$ / $T_{1}$ = $V_{o}$ / $T_{o}$

$V_{1}$ = $V_{o}$ $T_{1}$ / $T_{o}$

$V_{1}$ = (785 × 478.69)/400

$V_{1}$ = 939.43 $cm^{3}$

c. Work done by the system

Mathematically, the work done by the system is calculated as follows;

w = P( $V_{1}$ - $V_{o}$ ) = 125 KPa ( 939.43 - 785) = 19.30 J

d. Change in internal energy of the steam in J

ΔU = q - w = 83.8 - 19.3 = 64.5J

Explain why indicators are useful for measuring pH

ycow [4]

Explanation:

pH indicators are weak acids that exist as natural dyes and indicate the concentration of H+ (H3O+) ions in a solution via color change. A pH value is determined from the negative logarithm of this concentration and is used to indicate the acidic, basic, or neutral character of the substance you are testing.
