Answer:

P₁ = 0.0562 atm

Explanation:

Using the Clausius-Clapeyon equation

ln (P₁ / P₂) = ΔHvap/R (1/T₂ - 1/T₁)       ------ (eqn 1)

Step 1: From the question given, we state out the parameters given

P₁ = ?                T₁ = -148.0⁰C

P₂ = 1atm          T₂ = -108.0⁰C

ΔHvap = 12.6kJ/mol      R = 8.314J/K.mol

Step 2: Do conversions where necessary for unit consistency since our R value is in J/K.mol

a) convert ⁰C to K

1K = ⁰C + 273.15

T₁ = -148.0⁰C => -148.0⁰C + 273.15

T₁ = 125.15K

T₂ = -108.0⁰C => -108.0⁰C + 273.15

T₂ = 166.15K

b) convert kJ/mol to Joules

ΔHvap = 12.6kJ/mol = 12600Joules

substituting parameters into eqn 1

ln (P₁ / P₂) = ΔHvap/R (1/T₂ - 1/T₁)

ln (P₁/1atm) = 12600J / 8.314 (1/166.15 - 1/125.15)

                  = 1515.51 (0.0060 - 0.0079)

                  = 1515.51(-0.0019)

ln (P₁/1atm) = -2.8794

taking exponential of both sides to get rid of the natural log

P₁ = e^ -2.8794

P₁ = 0.05616 atm

P₁ = 0.0562atm

djverab [1.8K]

Answer:

The acceleration is -9.8 m/s²

Explanation:

Hi there!!

When you throw a ball upward, there is a downward acceleration that makes the ball return to your hand. This acceleration is produced by gravity.

The average acceleration is calculated as the variation of the speed over time. In this case, we know the time and the initial and final speed. Then:

acceleration = final speed - initial speed/ elapsed time

acceleration = -4.3 m/s - 4.3 m/s / 0.88 s

acceleration = -9.8 m/s²

Cerrena [4.2K]
The answer for this problem would be:
Assuming non-relativistic momentum, then you have: 
ΔxΔp = mΔxΔv = h / (4) 
Δv = h / (4πmΔx) 
m ~ 1.67e-27 h ~ 6.62e-34,Δx = 4e-15 --> 
Δv ~ 6.62e-34 / (4π * 1.67e-27 * 4e-15) ~ 7,886,270 m/s ~ 7.89e6 m/s 
That's about 1% of the speed of light, the assumption that it's non-relativistic.
