As the atmospheric pressure is, P = dgh

Here d is the density of the mercury,

g is gravitation = 9.8 m/s²

h is height of the column, P = 751 torr = (751 torr × 1 atm / 760 torr) (101325 Pa) (1 N/m² / 1 Pa) = 100125 N/m²

Where, 1 N = 1 Kg / ms²

Thus, P = 100125 Kg / m³. s²

Therefore, height of the mercury column, when the atmospheric pressure is 751 torr,

h = P / gd

= (100125 kg / m³. s²) / (9.8 m/s²) (13.6 × 10³ kg / m³) = 0.751 m

As, d₁h₁ = d₂h₂

Here, d₁ is the density of the non-volatile liquid = 1.20 g/ml

d₂ is the density of the mercury = 13.6 g/ml

h₂ = 0.751 m

Thus, putting the values we get,

h₁ = d₂h₂ /d₁ = 13.6 g/ml × 0.751 m / 1.20 g/ml

= 8.5 m

How many grams of XeF6 are required to react with 0.579 L of hydrogen gas at 6.46 atm and 45°C in the reaction shown below?
ankoles [38]
The chemical reaction equation for this is 

XeF6 + 3H2 ---> Xe + 6HF

Assuming gas behaves ideally, we use the ideal gas formula to solve for number of moles H2 with T = 318.15K (45C), P = 6.46 atm, V = 0.579L. Then we use the gas constant R = 0.08206 L atm K-1 mol-1.

we get n = 0.1433 moles H2

to get the mass of XeF6, 

we divide 0.1433 moles H2 by 3 since 1 mole XeF6 needs 3 moles H2 to react then multiply by the molecular weight of XeF6 which is 245.28 g/mole XeF6.

0.1433 moles H2 x \frac{1 mole XeF6}{3 moles H2} x \frac{245.28 g XeF6}{1 mole XeF6} = 11.71 g XeF6

Therefore, 11.71 g of XeF6 is needed to completely react with 0.579 L of Hydrogen gas at 45 degrees Celcius and 6.46 atm.

Answer:Crystalline solids have well-defined edges and faces, diffract x-rays, and tend to have sharp melting points. In contrast, amorphous solids have irregular or curved surfaces, do not give well-resolved x-ray diffraction patterns, and melt over a wide range of temperatures.
