A scuba diver with a local Sheriff’s office has been assigned the task of retrieving a sunken vessel in the Ocean. The vessel is

believed to have human remains inside. The scuba diver descends to a depth that is 60 feet below the surface of the ocean and breathes out a stream of bubbles. What is the total gas pressure of these bubbles at the moment they are released? What is the gas pressure in the bubbles when they reach the surface of the river?

First, we convert the depth of the water into meters. This is:
60 feet = 18.3 meters

Now, we compute the additional pressure exerted due to the water, which is given by:
Pressure = density * gravitational field strength * height
P = 1000 * 9.81 * 18.3
P = 179.5 kPa

The atmosphere pressure is 101.325 kPa
The pressure of the gas bubbles 60 feet under water will be:
179.5 + 101.325 = 280.825 kPa

The pressure at the surface of the water will be equal to the atmospheric pressure, 101.325 kPa.

Because of this decrease in external pressure as gas bubbles rise, they are seen to expand.

[OH-] for a solution is
solong [7]

Answer:

B = basic

Explanation:

Given data:

[OH⁻] = 5.35×10⁻⁴M

pH = ?

Solution:

pOH = -log[OH⁻]

pOH = - [5.35×10⁻⁴]

pOH = 3.272

it is known that,

pH + pOH = 14

pH = 14- pOH

pH = 14 - 3.272

pH = 10.728

The acidic pH is range from zero to less than 7 while 7 pH is neutral and above 7 the pH is basic. So, the given solution is basic.

Intermolecular forces allow which of the following substances to be the least fluid?
slava [35]
Out of the options, glass is the least fluid. The proof of this also lies in the fact that glass is the most difficult to melt out of all of the mentioned substances, and melting point gives us a rough estimate of the strength of intermolecular forces.
