Aerosol cans have a label that warns the user not to use them above a certain temperature and not to dispose of them by incinera

tion. Even an empty can contains residual gaseous propellant. For example, the residual pressure in a can is 1.51 atm when it is sitting on a shelf at 23 ∘C. If the can is placed on top of the furnace where the temperature reaches the boiling point of water, what is the pressure inside the can? Express your answer with the appropriate units.

Answer:

1.90 atm

Explanation:

Using ideal gas equation as:

PV=nRT

where,  

P is the pressure

V is the volume

n is the number of moles

T is the temperature  

R is Gas constant having value = 0.0821 L atm/ K mol  

According to above equation, at constant Volume and number of moles, pressure is directly proportional to the temperature. So,

\frac {P_1}{T_1}=\frac {P_2}{T_2}

Given ,  

P₁ = 1.51 atm

P₂ = ?

T₁ = 23 °C

T₂ = 100 °C  ( boiling point of water )

The conversion of T( °C) to T(K) is shown below:

T(K) = T( °C) + 273.15  

So,  

T₁ = (23 + 273.15) K = 296.15 K  

T₂ = (100 + 273.15) K = 373.15 K  

Using above equation as:

\frac{1.51}{296.15}=\frac{P_2}{373.15}

P_2=\frac{1.51\cdot \:373.15}{296.15}\ atm

<u>New Pressure = 1.90 atm</u>

If you heat a liquid and measure the temperature at which it boils, you are measuring a(n)
nika2105 [10]

Explanation:

The temperature at which vapor pressure of a liquid becomes equal to the atmospheric pressure is known as boiling point.

At the boiling point the liquid and vapor state of a substance remains in equilibrium till the time all molecules of liquid do not turn into vapor.

When all the liquid molecules change into vapor state then only there will occur a rise in temperature.

Properties that do not depend on the amount of matter are known as intensive properties.

For example, boiling point, melting point, density etc.

On the other hand, properties which depend on the amount of matter are called extensive properties.

For example, volume, density etc.

Thus, we can conclude that if you heat a liquid and measure the temperature at which it boils, you are measuring an intensive property.

Which of these terms refers to matter that could be heterogeneous?
Burka [1]
Mixture. Mixtures can be both heterogeneous and homogeneous. Heterogeneous mixtures are mixtures that don't have a fixed composition, meaning that if you take smaller samples from two different parts of a larger sample, the ratios of the substances will differ.

Why is the third equivalence point not observed in the titration curve for phosphoric acid?
BigorU [14]
<span>The third equivalence point is not observed in the titration curve of phosphoric acid because the specific point is concealed due to the rapid ionization of water which in turn forms an hydroxide ion and a molecule called hydronium molecule. The pH value changes more at the first and second points.</span>

An 8.42 g piece of metal with a specific heat of 1.020 J g-1 k-1 wasn't heated to an unknown temperature. The metal was then pla
ANTONII [103]

Answer:

T = 61.344\,^{\textdegree}C

Explanation:

The heat received by water is equal to the heat rejected by the piece of metal. That is to say:

-Q_{piece} = Q_{water}

(8.42\,g) \cdot \left(1.020\,\frac{J}{g\cdot ^{\textdegree}C}  \right) \cdot (T - 20.40\,^{\textdegree}C)= (44.2\,g)\cdot \left(4.187\,\frac{J}{g\cdot ^{\textdegree}C} \right)\cdot (20.40\,^{\textdegree}C-18.50\,^{\textdegree}C)

\left(8.588\,\frac{J}{^{\textdegree}C} \right)\cdot (T-20.40\,^{\textdegree}C) = 351.624\,J

The initial temperature of the piece of metal is:

T = 61.344\,^{\textdegree}C

need help plz !The reaction between hydrogen and nitrogen to give ammonium is a reversible reaction. if why or why not.Answer it
MaRussiya [10]

Answer:

We get ammonia because the forward and reverse reactions are happening at the same rates.

If 3 mol of  

H

2

is mixed in a sealed vessel with 1 mol  

N

2

under suitable conditions then they will react to form ammonia  

N

H

3

:

N

2

+

3

H

2

→

2

N

H

3

At the start of the reaction the concentration of the  

N

2

and  

H

2

are high. As soon as some  

N

H

3

is formed the reverse reaction will start to occur:

2

N

H

3

→

N

2

+

3

H

2

The rate of the reaction depends on concentration so the forward reaction will be fast at first when the concentration of the reactants is high. It will slow down as their concentration decreases.

By the same reasoning the reverse reaction will be slow at first then increase. These two processes continue until a point is reached when the rates of the forward and reverse reactions are equal.

We now state that the reaction has reached equilibrium which we show by:

N

2

+

3

H

2

⇌

2

N

H

3

It is described as "dynamic" because the forward and reverse reactions are happening at the same time although the concentrations of all the species remain constant.

So although  

N

H

3

is constantly breaking down, more is being formed at a constant rate.

In the Haber Process the system is actually not allowed to completely reach equilibrium as the process is continuous, as described in Mukhtar's answer.
