Answer: A). a prediction that a tire's air pressure will increase if the tire's temperature is raised

Explanation:

A hypothesis is a proposed explanation for a phenomenon. For a hypothesis to be a scientific hypothesis, the scientific method requires that one can test it. Scientists generally base scientific hypotheses on previous observations that cannot satisfactorily be explained with the available scientific theories.

A hypothesis can be define as the presumed or predicted statement for a natural phenomena which is required to be testified by using suitable experimental methodology or observatory approaches.

A). a prediction that a tire's air pressure will increase if the tire's temperature is raised. is the correct answer this is because of the fact that the statement involves a prediction that can be proved by using suitable experimental methodology.

Using the Bohr model, determine the energy, in joules, necessary to ionize a ground-state hydrogen atom. Show your calculations.

lord [1]

Answer:

The energy required to ionize the ground-state hydrogen atom is 2.18 x 10^-18 J or 13.6 eV.

Explanation:

To find the energy required to ionize ground-state hydrogen atom first we calculate the wavelength of photon required for this operation.

It is given by Bohr's Theory as:

1/λ = Rh (1/n1² - 1/n2²)

where,

λ = wavelength of photon

n1 = initial state = 1 (ground-state of hydrogen)

n2 = final state = ∞ (since, electron goes far away from atom after ionization)

Rh = Rhydberg's Constant = 1.097 x 10^7 /m

Therefore,

1/λ = (1.097 x 10^7 /m)(1/1² - 1/∞²)

λ = 9.115 x 10^-8 m = 91.15 nm

Now, for energy (E) we know that:

E = hc/λ

where,

h = Plank's Constant = 6.625 x 10^-34 J.s

c = speed of light = 3 x 10^8 m/s

Therefore,

E = (6.625 x 10^-34 J.s)(3 x 10^8 m/s)/(9.115 x 10^-8 m)

E = 2.18 x 10^-18 J

E = (2.18 x 10^-18 J)(1 eV/1.6 x 10^-19 J)

E = 13.6 eV

Which pair of samples contains the same number of oxygen atoms in each compound?0.20 mol Ba(OH)2 and 0.20 mol H2SO40.20 mol Br2O

Whitepunk [10]

Answer:

0.20 mol Br2O and 0.20 mol HBrO have the same number of oxygen atoms

Explanation:

0.20 mol Ba(OH)2 and 0.20 mol H2SO4

In Ba(OH)2 there are 2 moles of O atoms in every mol of Ba(OH)2.

Number of O atoms in 0.20 moles Ba(OH)2 = 2*0.20 = 0.40 moles O atom

In H2SO4 there are 4 moles of O atoms for every mol of H2SO4.

Number of O atoms in 0.20 moles H2SO4 = 4*0.20 = 0.80 moles O atom

⇒ 0.20 mol Ba(OH)2 and 0.20 mol H2SO4 do not have the same number of oxygen atoms.

0.20 mol Br2O and 0.20 mol HBrO

In Br2O there is 1 mol of O atoms in every mol Br2O

Number of O atoms in 0.20 moles Br2O = 0.20*1 = 0.20 moles O atom

In HBrO there is 1 mol of O atom in every mol HBrO

Number of O atoms in 0.20 moles HBrO = 0.20 *1 = 0.20 moles O atom

⇒ in 0.20 moles Br2O and 0.20 moles HBrO we have the same number of oxygen atoms

0.20 moles of Oygen contains: = 0.20 * 6.022*10^23 = 1.2 *10^23 O atoms

0.10 mol Fe2O3 and 0.50 mol BaO

In Fe2O3 there are 3 moles of O atoms in every mol of Fe2O3

Number of O atoms in 0.10 moles Fe2O3 = 0.10 * 3 = 0.30 moles O atom

In BaO there is 1 mol of O atoms in every mol BaO

Number of O atoms in 0.50 mol BaO = 1*0.50 = 0.50 moles O atom

⇒ 0.10 mol Fe2O3 and 0.50 mol BaO do not have the same number of oxygen atoms.

0.10 mol Na2O and 0.10 mol Na2SO4

In Na2O there is 1 mol of O atoms in every mol of Na2O

Number of O atoms in 0.10 mol Na2O = 1*0.10 = 0.10 moles O atom

In Na2sO4 there are 4 moles of O atoms in every mol of Na2SO4

Number of O atoms in 0.10 mol Na2SO4 = 4*0.10 = 0.40 moles O atom

⇒ 0.10 mol Na2O and 0.10 mol Na2SO4 do not have the same number of oxygen atoms.

What is the difference between a substance and mixture ?

snow_lady [41]

Explanation:

Matter can be categorized into substances and mixtures.

Matter is anything that has mass and occupies spaces.

Substances are distinct matter with the following properties:

All parts are the same throughout i.e homogeneous
Their composition is definite
They cannot be easily separated or broken down into simpler substances by physical means
Separation by physical means is not easy
They have a unique set of physical properties.

Mixtures have the following properties:

Their composition is indefinite i.e they consist of two or more elements and/or compounds in any proportion by mass
Their constituents retains their identity
They can easily be separated by physical means
They have a broad range of physical properties.
