Answer:

32.4 K

Explanation:

Initial pressure P1= 50.0mmHg

Initial temperature T1= 540K

Final temperature T2=????

Final pressure P2= 3 mmHg

From

P1/T1= P2/T2

P1T2= P2T1

T2= P2T1/P1

T2= 3×540/50.0= 1620/50.0

T2= 32.4 K

Answer:

$T_2=32.4K$

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, we use the Gay-Lussac's law which allows us to understand the pressure-temperature relationship as a directly proportional relationship:

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

Hence, we solve for the final temperature as shown below:

$T_2=\frac{T_1P_2}{P_1}= \frac{540K*3mmHg}{50.0mmHg} \\\\T_2=32.4K$

Best regards.

1) What is air pressure? (4 Points)

Nataly [62]

1) What is air pressure? (Answer: Atmospheric pressure, sometimes also called barometric pressure, is the pressure within the atmosphere of Earth.)

2) What is a barometer and what is it used to measure? (Answer: A barometer is a scientific instrument used in meteorology to measure atmospheric pressure. Pressure tendency can forecast short term changes in the weather.)

3) How does air pressure change? (Answer: Millibar values used in meteorology range from about 100 to 1050. At sea level, standard air pressure in millibars is 1013.2. Weather maps showing the pressure at the surface are drawn using millibars. ... This change in pressure is caused by changes in air density, and air density is related to temperature.)

4) Why is cooler, drier air related to High Pressure? (Answer: This is due to density differences between the two air masses. Since stronger high-pressure systems contain cooler or drier air, the air mass is denser and flows towards areas that are warm or moist, which are in the vicinity of low pressure areas in advance of their associated cold fronts.)

5) Why is warm, moister air related to Low Pressure? (Answer: When air warms, its molecules scatter. The air becomes lighter and rises.)

Sally has constructed a concentration cell to measure Ksp for MCln. She constructs the cell by adding 2 mL of 0.05 M M(NO3)n to

hram777 [196]

Answer:

0.1056 mole

Explanation:

As Sally knows that the charge on the metal ion is n = +2

$MCl_n=MCl_2$

In that compartment $[M^{n+}]=[m^{2+}]=8.279 \ M$

The volume of the $MCl_n$ taken in that compartment = 6.380 mL

So, the number of moles of $M^{2+} = 8.279 \times 6.380$

= 52.82 m mol

= 0.05280 mol

$MCl_n \rightarrow M^{n+}+nCl^-$

But n = 2

Therefore, moles of $Cl^-$ = 2 x moles of $M^{n+}$

= 2 x 0.05282

= 0.1056 mole

Be sure to answer all parts. Consider the reaction N2(g) + 3H2(g) → 2NH3(g)ΔH o rxn = −92.6 kJ/mol If 4.0 moles of N2 react with

Sphinxa [80]

Answer : The work done is, $1.98\times 10^4J$

Explanation :

The given balanced chemical reaction is:

$N_2(g)+3H_2(g)\rightarrow 2NH_3(g)$

When 4 moles of $N_2$ react with 12 moles of $H_2$ then it gives 8 moles of $NH_3$

First we have to calculate the change in moles of gas.

Moles on reactant side = Moles of $N_2$ + Moles of $H_2$

Moles on reactant side = 4 + 12 = 16 moles

Moles on product side = Moles of $NH_3$

Moles on reactant side = 8 moles

Change in moles of gas = 16 - 8 = 8 moles

Now we have to calculate the change in volume of gas.

Using ideal gas equation:

$PV=nRT$

where,

P = Pressure of gas = 1.0 atm

V = Volume of gas = ?

n = number of moles of gas = 8 mole

R = Gas constant = $0.0821L.atm/mol.K$

T = Temperature of gas = $25^oC=273+25=298K$

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$1.0atm\times V=8mole\times (0.0821L.atm/mol.K)\times 298K$

$V=195.7L$

As the number of moles of gas decreased. So, the volume also deceased. Thus, the volume of gas will be, -195.7 L

Now we have to calculate the work done.

Formula used :

$w=-p\Delta V$

where,

w = work done

p = pressure of the gas = 1.0 atm

$\Delta V$ = change in volume = -195.7 L

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get:

$w=-p\Delta V$

$w=-(1.0atm)\times (-195.7L)$

$w=195.7L.artm=195.7\times 101.3J=19824.41J=1.98\times 10^4J$

conversion used : (1 L.atm = 101.3 J)

Thus, the work done is, $1.98\times 10^4J$
