It's made up of two different metals bonded together, which expand by different amounts as they heat up. As the temperature changes, the bimetallic strip curves more or less tightly (contracts or expands) and the pointer, attached to it, moves up or down the scale.

Answer:

4054 kcal of heat is released during complete combustion of 354 g of octane.

Explanation:

Heat of combustion of 1 mol of octane is $1.308\times 10^{3}$ kcal

Molar mass of octane = 114.23 g/mol

We know, no. of moles = (mass)/(molar mass)

So, $1.308\times 10^{3}$ kcal of heat is released during complete combustion of 114.23 g of octane.

So, amount of heat is released during complete combustion of 354 g of octane = $(\frac{1.308\times 10^{3}}{114.23})\times 354$ kcal = 4054 kcal

Hence 4054 kcal of heat is released during complete combustion of 354 g of octane.

1) 7.15 * 10^6

since the exponent of the scientific notation is positive, move 6 places to the right.

so, 7.15 * 10^6 = 7150000

2) 3.03 * 10^-8

Since the exponent of the scientific notation is negative, move the decimal point 8 places to the left.

so, 3.03 * 10^-8 = 0.0000000303

3) 4.9 * 10^-1

since the exponent of the scientific notation is negative, move 1 decimal place to the left.

so, 4.9 * 10^-1 = 0.49

4) 2.886 * 10^5

since the exponent of the scientific notation is positive, move 5 decimal places to the right.

so, 2.886 * 10^5 = 288600

Answer : The partial pressure of $N_2$ and $H_2$ is, 216.5 mmHg and 649.5 mmHg

Explanation :

According to the Dalton's Law, the partial pressure exerted by component 'i' in a gas mixture is equal to the product of the mole fraction of the component and the total pressure.

Formula used :

$p_i=X_i\times p_T$
