Why are conductors better than insulators to carry electric current

1 answer:

5 0

Conductors are better than insulators to carry electric current because they give the electricity the ability to flow freely throughout circuits. This helps the insulator to do its job of containing the electric charge. Examples of this would be a tv plug - the rubber surrounding the TV plug helps to keep the conductors (wires) in place, thus helping to facilitate an electric charge.

If I initially have a gas at a pressure of 12 atm, volume of 23 liters, and temperature of 200 K, and then I raise the pressure

CaHeK987 [17]

Answer : The volume of gas will be 29.6 L

Explanation:

Combined gas law is the combination of Boyle's law, Charles's law and Gay-Lussac's law.

The combined gas equation is,

$\frac{P_1V_1}{T_1}=\frac{P_2V_2}{T_2}$

where,

$P_1$ = initial pressure of gas = 12 atm

$P_2$ = final pressure of gas = 14 atm

$V_1$ = initial volume of gas = 23 L

$V_2$ = final volume of gas = ?

$T_1$ = initial temperature of gas = 200K

$T_2$ = final temperature of gas = 300K

Now put all the given values in the above equation, we get the final pressure of gas.

$\frac{12atm\times 23L}{200K}=\frac{14\times V_2}{300K}$

$V_2=29.6L$

Therefore, the new volume of gas will be 29.6 L

If a pork roast must absorb

Black_prince [1.1K]

Let us assume propane was the fuel
C3H8(g) + 5O2(g) ---> 3CO2(g) + 4H2O(g) = 2217kJ
1 mole ofpropane produces 3 moles of CO2
heat absorbed by pork = 0.11 x 2217
= 243.87 kJ/mol
number of moles of propane = 1700kJ / 243.87 kJ/mol
= 6.971 moles
1 mole of C3H8 = 3 moles ofCO2
6.971 moles of C3H8 = ?
3 x 6.971 = 20.913 moles of CO2
Convert to grams
mass = MW x mole
= 44 x 20.913
= 920.172g of CO2 emitted

What is the empirical formula for glucose<br> A)<br> B)<br> C)<br> D)

pshichka [43]

The Answer is A CH2O

The molecular formula for glucose is C6H12O6. The subscripts represent a multiple of an empirical formula. To determine the empirical formula, divide the subscripts by the GCF of 6 which gives CH2O.
