It takes much longer to bake a whole potato than potatoes that have been cut into pieces why ?

1 answer:

3 0

A whole potato must be cooked from outside in, just like a potato cut into slices.

however, with a potato cut into slices, there is a greater surface area, so there is more "outside" and less inside. as a result, the sliced potato cooks faster.

38.4 mol of krypton is in a rigid box of volume 64 cm^3 and is initially at temperature 512.88°C. The gas then undergoes isobari

kolbaska11 [484]

Answer:

Final volumen first process $V_{2} = 98,44 cm^{3}$

Final Pressure second process $P_{3} = 1,317 * 10^{10} Pa$

Explanation:

Using the Ideal Gases Law yoy have for pressure:

$P_{1} = \frac{n_{1} R T_{1} }{V_{1} }$

where:

P is the pressure, in Pa

n is the nuber of moles of gas

R is the universal gas constant: 8,314 J/mol K

T is the temperature in Kelvin

V is the volumen in cubic meters

Given that the amount of material is constant in the process:

$n_{1} = n_{2} = n$

In an isobaric process the pressure is constant so:

$P_{1} = P_{2}$

$\frac{n R T_{1} }{V_{1} } = \frac{n R T_{2} }{V_{2} }$

$\frac{T_{1} }{V_{1} } = \frac{T_{2} }{V_{2} }$

$V_{2} = \frac{T_{2} V_{1} }{T_{1} }$

Replacing : $T_{1} =786 K, T_{2} =1209 K, V_{1} = 64 cm^{3}$

$V_{2} = 98,44 cm^{3}$

Replacing on the ideal gases formula the pressure at this piont is:

$P_{2} = 3,92 * 10^{9} Pa$

For Temperature the ideal gases formula is:

$T = \frac{P V }{n R }$

For the second process you have that $T_{2} = T_{3}$ So:

$\frac{P_{2} V_{2} }{n R } = \frac{P_{3} V_{3} }{n R }$

$P_{2} V_{2} = P_{3} V_{3}$

$P_{3} = \frac{P_{2} V_{2}}{V_{3}}$

$P_{3} = 1,317 * 10^{10} Pa$

Among the alkali earth metals, the tendency to react with other substances

padilas [110]

Answer D
In alkali earth metals reacrivity increases from top to bottom (opposite of b)
This is because as you go down, the electron shells increase by 1 shell. The farther away a shell is from the nucleus, the higher its tendency to react.
D is true because the more reactive an alkali metal is, the more vigorous the reaction will be with water.
