A gas has a temperature of 40C at a pressure of 400 atm. What is the pressure at 60C?

1 answer:

8 0

First, we have to put this information into a ratio

40 = 400

60 = x

Cross multiply (40*x) = (60*400)

40 x= 24000

Divide both sides by 40

24000/40= 600

Therefore, a gas has pressure of 600 atm when heated to 60C

5 physical properties of osmium

lisabon 2012 [21]

In 1803AD, Osmium was discovered by Smithson Tennant when dissolving an impure sample of platinum in aqua regia, a mixture of hydrochloric and nitric acids. He was able to determine that the black powder left behind after dissolving the platinum was actually a mixture of two new elements, indium and osmium.

•Osmium is a bluish-white and shiny metal.

•Osmium is very hard and is brittle even at very high temperatures.

•Osmium has the lowast vapor pressure and the highest melting point among the platinum group of metals.

•Osmium's density is slightly more than iridium hence is credited as the heaviest element.

The units of density are kg/m2. If the density of a liquid is 760.0 kg/m' what is the specific volume? a) 1.316 x 10 m2/kg b) 1.

zlopas [31]

Answer:

The correct answer is: 1.316 . 10⁻³ m³/kg.

Explanation:

The density (ρ) of a substance is the ratio of its mass (m) to its volume (V). At constant temperature and pressure, its value is constant and it is an intrinsic property of materials. The units of density are kg/m³.

$\rho = \frac{m}{V}$

The specific volume (ν) of a substance is the ratio of its mass to its volume. We can see that it is the reciprocal of density and an intrinsic property of matter as well. Therefore, the units of specific volume are m³/kg.

$\nu = \frac{V}{m}=\frac{1}{\rho }$
