Answer:

2.954 g

Explanation:

One banana contains 422 mg

One banana weighs 118 g

To make our calculations easier, we will convert both unit to the same power, that is both of them will be in g.

422 mg = 422/1000 = 0.422 g

If one banana contains 0.422 g of potassium, then 7 bananas(since he eats 1 per day) will weigh

0.422 * 7 = 2.954 g

Thus, after a week, he would have ingested at least 2.954 g of potassium.

I hope you understand the explanations. Thanks

In the determining molar volume experiment, we will use water. how will vapor pressure play a role in this experiment?
Bas_tet [7]
Molar volume is a property of a component in a solution. It is defined as the volume occupied by one mole of the component in the closed system. You would not expect all solutions to execute volume additivity because intermolecular forces between the components come into play. There is no such thing as conservation of volume. 

Vapor pressure affects molar volume because gases are very sensitive by these process conditions. Vapor pressure is very temperature-dependent. Consequently, at a different temperature, your component could expand or compress, thus, affecting the molar volume. Moreover, the pressure affects the molecular collisions in the system.

a particular application calls for N2 g with a density of 1.80 g/L at 32 degrees C what must be the pressure of the n2 g in mill
baherus [9]

Answer:

1223.38 mmHg

Explanation:

Using ideal gas equation as:

PV=nRT

where,  

P is the pressure

V is the volume

n is the number of moles

T is the temperature  

R is Gas constant having value = 62.3637\text{ L.mmHg }mol^{-1}K^{-1}

Also,  

Moles = mass (m) / Molar mass (M)

Density (d)  = Mass (m) / Volume (V)

So, the ideal gas equation can be written as:

PM=dRT

Given that:-

d = 1.80 g/L

Temperature = 32 °C

The conversion of T( °C) to T(K) is shown below:

T(K) = T( °C) + 273.15  

So,  

T = (32 + 273.15) K = 305.15 K

Molar mass of nitrogen gas = 28 g/mol

Applying the equation as:

P × 28 g/mol  = 1.80 g/L × 62.3637 L.mmHg/K.mol × 305.15 K

⇒P = 1223.38 mmHg

<u>1223.38 mmHg must be the pressure of the nitrogen gas.</u>

vlada-n [284]

Answer:

Explanation:

What you know is that the electrical energy comes from the wind turbine. Therefore the x must identify the type of energy that the wind turbine represents.

It must represent mechanical energy because blades of  the wind turbine turns to produce electrical energy.
