A sample of nitrogen occupies 10.0 liters at 25°C and 98.7 kPa. What would be the volume at 20°C and 102.7 kPa?

1 answer:

7 0

To solve the problem, we assume the sample to be ideal. Then, we use the ideal gas equation which is expressed as PV = nRT. From the first condition of the nitrogen gas sample, we calculate the number of moles.

n = PV / RT
n = (98.7x 10^3 Pa x 0.01 m^3) / (8.314 Pa m^3/ mol K) x 298.15 K
n = 0.40 mol N2

At the second condition, the number of moles stays the same however pressure and temperature was changed. So, the new volume is calculated as follows:

V = nRT / P
V = 0.40 x 8.314 x 293.15 / 102.7 x 10^3
V = 9.49 x 10^-3 m^3 or 9.49 L

For each pair of ions, choose the one that has the smaller radius. Na+ or Mg2+ Cl- or K+

Drupady [299]

Mg2+...because it loses 2 electron which is on its valence shell making it empty and making it have jst 2 shells. The radius calculated from d nucleus to the new valence shell is then smaller than that of Cl^- and k+

Which best describes nuclear fusion? O A nucleus spontaneously splits and absorbs energy O Two nuclei spontaneously combine and

KIM [24]

Answer: Nuclei combine to form a heavier nucleus, releasing energy. 

Explanation: e.g two deuterium nucleus (Hydrogen-2 isotopes) forms an He nucleus and energy is released.

Which of the following are characteristics of vertebrates?

djverab [1.8K]

Answer:
All of the above

Explanation:
Vertebrates are a class of creatures falling under kingdom "Animalia" that are characterized by the presence of an internal skeleton composed of bones.

Vertebrates are characterized by the following:
1- presence of internal skeleton
2- developed brain
3- the presence of an advanced nervous system connected to the brain
4- presence of muscles that allow movement
5- protective skin
6- circulation of blood in the bodies in the vessels

Comparing the mentioned characteristics with the options given, we will find that the most suitable answer is: "all of the above".

Hope this helps :)

In which location would a free neutron from a decaying U-235 atom be most likely to cause another atom to go split?

Juliette [100K]

Answer:

The correct answer is option B

B. In a sample of enriched uranium

Explanation:

Nuclear fission is a nuclear reaction whereby large nucleus of an atom is break down into smaller parts lighter nuclei or daughter nuclei and release large amount of energy, due to the large amount of energy there are alot of heat released.

During the process large nucleous is bombarded by the neutrons, as a result of this the nucleous becomes disintegrated because it's unstable and their is production of lighter nuclei as well as neutrons and energy.

When the U -235 particles are compacted together there result a high energy neutron which can bombard another Uranium - 235 molecule in the region. uranium is enriched with more of the fissile uranium isotope, then when it is enriched it can be used to make atomic reactors and explosives like bombs.
