Answer:
When the solar wind gets past the magnetic field and travels towards the Earth, it runs into the atmosphere .As the protons and electrons from the solar wind hit the particles in the Earth's atmosphere, they release energy – and this is what causes the northern lights.
Explanation:
Answer: 67 mmHg
Explanation:
According to Dalton's Gas Law, the total pressure of a mixture of gases is the sum of the pressure of each individual gas.
i.e Ptotal = P1 + P2 + P3 + .......
In this case,
Ptotal = 512 mmHg
P(oxygen) = 332 mmHg
P(carbon mono-oxide) = 113 mmHg
Remaining pressure (P3) = ?
To get P3, apply Dalton's Gas Law formula
Ptotal = P(oxygen) + P(carbon mono-oxide) + P3
512 mmHg = 332 mmHg + 113 mmHg + P3
512 mmHg = 445 mmHg + P3
P3 = 512 mmHg - 445 mmHg
P3 = 67 mmHg
Thus, the remaining pressure is 67 mmHg
Answer:
As substances are cooled they contract
Explanation:
To find the density, the formula would be d= m/V. Your answer would be 19.9 or if you round, 20.
<span>361.4 pm is the length of the edge of the unit cell.
First, let's calculate the average volume each atom is taking. Start with calculating how many moles of copper we have in a cubic centimeter by looking up the atomic weight.
Atomic weight copper = 63.546
Now divide the mass by the atomic weight, getting
8.94 g / 63.546 g/mol = 0.140685488 mol
And multiply by Avogadro's number to get the number of atoms:
0.140685488 * 6.022140857x10^23 = 8.472278233x10^22
Now examine the face-centered cubic unit cell to see how many atoms worth of space it consumes. There is 1 atom at each of the 8 corners and each of those atoms is shared between 8 unit cells for for a space consumption of 8/8 = 1 atom. And there are 6 faces, each with an atom in the center, each of which is shared between 2 unit cells for a space consumption of 6/2 = 3 atoms. So each unit cell consumes as much space as 4 atoms. Let's divide the number of atoms in that cubic centimeter by 4 to determine the number of unit cells in that volume.
8.472278233x10^22 / 4 = 2.118069558x10^22
Now calculate the volume each unit cell occupies.
1 cm^3 / 2.118069558x10^22 = 4.721280262x10^-23 cm^3
Let's get the cube root to get the length of an edge.
(4.721280262x10^-23 cm^3)^(1/3) = 3.61426x10^-08 cm
Now let's convert from cm to pm.
3.61426x10^-08 cm / 100 cm/m * 1x10^12 pm/m = 361.4 pm
Doing an independent search for the Crystallographic Features of Copper, I see that the Lattice Parameter for copper at at 293 K is 3.6147 x 10^-10 m which is in very close agreement with the calculated amount above. And since metals expand and contract with heat and cold, I assume the slight difference in values is due to the density figure given being determined at a temperature lower than 293 K.</span>
