Answer:  The work energy lost by the system is -6078 Joules

Explanation:

According to first law of thermodynamics:

\Delta E=q+w

\Delta E=Change in internal energy

q = heat absorbed or released

w = work done or by the system

w = work done by the system=-P\Delta V  {Work is done by the system as the final volume is greater than initial volume and is negative}

where P = pressure = 3 atm

\Delta V = change in volume = (55-35) L = 20 L

w =-3atm\times (20)L=-60Latm=-6078Joules  

{1Latm=101.3J}

Thus work energy lost by the system is -6078 Joules

Leah is trying to determine how music affects the growth of plants. She hypothesizes that classical music will cause a plant to
Pani-rosa [81]
Leah's experiment:
A. Takes careful and regular measurements (she measures the growth every day)
B. Has a specific hypothesis and a controlled experiment (the music is the only changing variable, the growth conditions are identical, and this is what she wants to test in her hypothesis)
C. Experimental data that can be recorded and analyzed (measuring the growth of plant fits this)

So the answer must be D, since there is no mention of past research that scientists have found on this topic.

What does it mean to say an equation is balanced? Why is it important for an equation to be balanced?​
Rom4ik [11]

Answer: It is important for an equation to be balanced because if it is not then the reactants won't match the products.

Explanation: I don't know if you will understand this but here:

Let's say you're cooking eggs, you're reactants so to speak would be 3 eggs and 1 tablespoon of oil so you put it together using heat and a pan. Your products have to match what you have in the beginning. You cannot have an equation that looks like this

Reactants = 3eggs + 1Tbsp oil ---pan/heat---> 6eggs + 1 cup of oil

You cannot get something from what you don't have. The number of how much of an element you have must be the same of both sides of the equation.

A substance with a high [H ] would likely have which additional characteristics? a high [OHâ€"" ] and a high pOH a low [OHââ
viktelen [127]

The negative log function that determines the acidity or alkalinity by hydronium ion concentration is called pH.

The substance having high \rm [H] will have:

Option B. A low \rm [OH ^{-}] and a high \rm pOH

This characteristic can be explained as:

  • The concentrations of \rm [H^{+}] and \rm [OH ^{-}] are inversely dependent on each other so when the concentration of  raises then the concentration of \rm [OH ^{-}] drops and vice versa.

  • The pH of a solution or substance is calculated with the help of:

\rm  pH  = \rm - log  \rm [H^{+}]

From the formula, it can be deduced that when the concentration of \rm [H^{+}] is high then the pH has a low value and it means that the solution is acidic.

  • pH can also be written as:

\rm pH + pOH &= 14 \\\\\rm pOH &= 14 - pH

From this formula we can that when the value of pH is less then the value of pOH will be increased and vice versa.

Therefore, when pOH is in high concentration then \rm [OH ^{-}] is low.

To learn more about pH and pOH follow the link:
