Interstellar space has an average temperature of about 10 K , and an average density of hydrogen atoms of about one hydrogen ato
Bas_tet [7]

Answer:

2.2508\times 10^{19} m meter the mean free path of hydrogen atoms in interstellar space.Explanation:

The mean free path equation is given as:

\lambda =\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}\pi d^2 n}

Where"

d = diameter of hydrogen atom in meters

n =  number of molecules per unit volume

We are given: d = 100 pm = 100\times 10^{-12}= 10^{-10} m

n = 1 m^{-3}

\lambda =\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}\pi (10^{-10} m)^2\times 1 m^{-3}}

\lambda =2.2508\times 10^{19} m

2.2508\times 10^{19} m meter the mean free path of hydrogen atoms in interstellar space.

The mechanisms of most common reactions consist of two or more elementary steps, each of which describes a single molecular even
olga2289 [7]

Answer:

The correct answer is "True".

Explanation:

A reaction mechanism is a theoretical postulate that tries to explain in a logical way which are the elemental and intermediary reactions that happen in a chemical reaction and that allow to explain the qualitative and quantitative characteristics observed in its development, in which a unique molecular event is described in each elemental step.

How many moles of aluminum oxide would form if 12.5 moles of aluminum burned​
jarptica [38.1K]
<h3>Al + O2 -> Al2O3</h3>

Balance it:

<h3>2Al + 3O2 -> 2Al2O3</h3><h3 />

So you need 2 Al and 3 O2 to make 2 Al2O3 (aluminum oxide).

I'm going to assume you have all the O2 you need.

Since 2 mols of Al is needed to make 2 mols of the product, it's a 1:1 ratio. You get as much aluminum oxide for as much aluminum you burn.

So 12.5 mols if there is not a lack of the O2.

How much energy is required to vaporize 14.27 grams of water at its<br> boiling point? *
laila [671]

Energy required to vaporize : 32.3 kJ

<h3>Further explanation </h3>

The heat to change the phase can be formulated :

Q = mLf (melting/freezing)

Q = mLv (vaporization/condensation)

Lf=latent heat of fusion

Lv=latent heat of vaporization

Mass of water = 14.27 g

Latent heat of vaporization ( boiling point of 100 ºC) :  2260 J/g

Energy required :

\tt Q=m.Lv\\\\Q=14.27\times 2260\\\\Q=32250.2~J\approx 32.3~kJ
