Which of the following is a distinguishing difference between rocks and minerals?

Carbon dioxide dissolves in water to form carbonic acid, which is primarily dissolved CO2. Dissolved CO2 satisfies the equilibri

lorasvet [3.4K]

Explanation:

The reaction equation will be as follows.

$CO_{2}(aq) + H_{2}O \rightleftharpoons H^{+}(aq) + HCO^{-}_{3}(aq)$

Calculate the amount of $CO_{2}$ dissolved as follows.

$CO_{2}(aq) = K_{CO_{2}} \times P_{CO_{2}}$

It is given that $K_{CO_{2}}$ = 0.032 M/atm and $P_{CO_{2}}$ = $1.9 \times 10^{-4}$ atm.

Hence, $[CO_{2}]$ will be calculated as follows.

$[CO_{2}]$ = $K_{CO_{2}} \times P_{CO_{2}}$

= $0.032 M/atm \times 1.9 \times 10^{-4}atm$

= $0.0608 \times 10^{-4}$

or, = $0.608 \times 10^{-5}$

It is given that $K_{a} = 4.46 \times 10^{-7}$

As, $K_{a} = \frac{[H^{+}]^{2}}{[CO_{2}]}$

$4.46 \times 10^{-7} = \frac{[H^{+}]^{2}}{0.608 \times 10^{-5}}$

$[H^{+}]^{2}$ = $2.71 \times 10^{-12}$

$[H^{+}]$ = $1.64 \times 10^{-6}$

Since, we know that pH = $-log [H^{+}]$

So, pH = $-log (1.64 \times 10^{-6})$

= 5.7

Therefore, we can conclude that pH of water in equilibrium with the atmosphere is 5.7.

At room temperature (20°C} and pressure, the density of air is 1.189 g/L. An object will float in air if its density is less tha

Alekssandra [29.7K]

Explanation:

$Density =\frac{Mass}[Volume}$

Density of the air ,d= 1.189 g/L

(a) Density of the evacuated ball

Mass of the ball ,m = 0.12 g

Volume of the ball = $V=560 cm^3=560 ml=0.560 L$

$D =\frac{0.12 g}{0.560 L}=0.214 g/L$

D<d, teh evacuated ball will flaot in air.

(b) Density of the evacuated ball D = 0.214 g/L

Density of carbon dioxide gas = $d_1=1.830 g/L$

Mass of the carbon dioxide gas :

$1.830 g/L\times 0.560 L=1.0248 g$

Total density of filled ball with carbon dioxide gas:

$\frac{0.12 g+1.0248 g}{0.560 L}==2.044 g/L$

The ball filled with carbon dioxide will not float in the air because total density of filled ball is greater than the density of an air.

(c) Density of the evacuated ball D = 0.214 g/L

Density of hydrogen gas = $d_2=0.0899 g/L$

Mass of the hydrogen gas :

$1.830 g/L\times 0.560 L=0.050344 g$

Total density of filled ball with hydrogen gas:

$\frac{0.12 g+0.050344 g}{0.560 L}==0.3041 g/L$

The ball filled with hydrogen will float in the air because total density of filled ball is lessor than the density of an air.

(d) Density of the evacuated ball D = 0.214 g/L

Density of oxygen gas = $d_3=1.330 g/L$

Mass of the oxygen gas :

$1.330 g/L\times 0.560 L=1.7448 g$

Total density of filled ball with oxygen gas:

$\frac{0.12 g+1.7448 g}{0.560 L}=1.5442 g/L$

The ball filled with oxygen will not float in the air because total density of filled ball is greater than the density of an air.

(e) Density of the evacuated ball D = 0.214 g/L

Density of nitrogen gas = $d_4=1.165 g/L$

Mass of the nitrogen gas :

$1.165 g/L\times 0.560 L=0.6524 g$

Total density of filled ball with nitrogen gas:

$\frac{0.12 g+0.6524 g}{0.560 L}==1.3792 g/L$

The ball filled with nitrogen will not float in the air because total density of filled ball is greater than the density of an air.

f) Mass must be added to sink the ball = m

Density of ball > Density of the air ; to sink the ball.

$\frac{0.12g +m}{0.560L}>1.189 g/L$

m > 0.54584 g

For any case weight added to ball to make it sink in an air should be grater than the value of 0.54584 grams.

A sample of 28 Mg decays initially at a rate of 53500 disintegrations per minute, but the decay rate falls to 10980 disintegrati

prisoha [69]

Answer : The half life of 28-Mg in hours is, 6.94

Explanation :

First we have to calculate the rate constant.

Expression for rate law for first order kinetics is given by:

$k=\frac{2.303}{t}\log\frac{a}{a-x}$

where,

k = rate constant

t = time passed by the sample = 48.0 hr

a = initial amount of the reactant disintegrate = 53500

a - x = amount left after decay process disintegrate = 53500 - 10980 = 42520

Now put all the given values in above equation, we get

$k=\frac{2.303}{48.0}\log\frac{53500}{42520}$

$k=9.98\times 10^{-2}hr^{-1}$

Now we have to calculate the half-life.

$k=\frac{0.693}{t_{1/2}}$

$9.98\times 10^{-2}=\frac{0.693}{t_{1/2}}$

$t_{1/2}=6.94hr$

Therefore, the half life of 28-Mg in hours is, 6.94

What were the constraints on Nils Bohlin’s solution to safer seatbelts?

ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Answer:

He realized he needs to have the upper body and lower body held in place and needed the buckle as far down beside the person's hip so it could hold the body properly

Explanation: ''I realized both the upper and lower body must be held securely in place with one strap across the chest and one across the hips,'' Mr. Bohlin once said. ''The belt also needed an immovable anchorage point for the buckle as far down beside the occupant's hip, so it could hold the body properly during a collision.
