Explain surface tension and capillary action

Chemistry
1 answer:
Andreas93 [3]3 years ago
4 0

Adhesion of water to the surface of a material will cause an upward force on the liquid. The surface tension acts to hold the surface intact. Capillary action occurs when the adhesion to the surface material is stronger than the cohesive forces between the water molecules.

How many liters of water vapor are in 36.21 g?
Elden [556K]

Answer:

45.02 L.

Explanation:  

  • Firstly, we need to calculate the no. of moles of water vapor.
  • n = mass / molar mass = (36.21 g) / (18.0 g/mol) = 2.01 mol.
  • We can calculate the volume of knowing that 1.0 mole of a gas at STP occupies 22.4 L.

<em><u>Using cross multiplication:</u></em>

1.0 mole of CO occupies → 22.4 L.

2.01 mole of CO occupies → ??? L.

∴ The volume of water vapor in 36.21 g = (22.4 L)(2.01 mole) / (1.0 mole) = 45.02 L.

If someone was falling through the sky, would time go faster or slower than someone on land?
mestny [16]
As such, all objects free fall at the same rate regardless of their mass. Because the 9.8 N/kg gravitational field at Earth's surface causes a 9.8 m/s/s acceleration of any object placed there, we often call this ratio the acceleration of gravity.

The time is the same it just feels faster because your literally falling from the sky and since your scared it will either go by slower or faster

Listening to music on your headphones converts what energy to what energy
zysi [14]

I think it converts electrical energy to sound energy because, say if you're listening to music on your phone but, with the speaker on. The speaker of the phone on the other end changes the electrical energy/ electromagnetic waves back into sound energy. I believe the same goes with headphones

Given the following thermochemical equation 2N2O(g) → 2N2(g) + O2(g) ∆Hº = –166.7 kJ/mol find the amount of heat that will be pr
soldi70 [24.7K]

Answer:

Explanation:

2N₂O(g) → 2N₂(g) + O₂(g)

molecular weight of N₂O = 44

∆Hº = –166.7 kJ/mol

44 g of N₂O decomposes to give 166.7 kJ of heat

2.25 g of N₂O decomposes to give 166.7 x 2.25 / 44 kJ of heat

= 8.51 kJ of heat .
