Explain why a can implodes

Chemistry

Answer:

When the inverted can is placed in cold water, the steam condenses, leaving the can mostly empty, and thus with a very low pressure inside of it. The difference between the low pressure inside and the atmospheric pressure outside exerts an inward force on the walls of the can, causing it to implode.

How is the concentration of h3o ions and oh- ions different in an acid solution and a basic soulution?

Lubov Fominskaja [6]

In an acidic solution, the concentration of H+ is greater than the concentration of OH-. The pH will be less than 7.
In a basic solution, the concentration of OH- is greater than the concentration of H+. The pH will be greater than 7.
In a neutral solution, the concentration of H+ ions to OH-ions will be equal, and will therefore have a pH of 7. (This is due to water autoionization, which we usually ignore because it is small in other circumstances.)

Natural gas is stored in a spherical tank at a temperature of 13°C. At a given initial time, the pressure in the tank is 117 kPa

drek231 [11]

Answer:

1. the absolute pressure in the tank before filling = 217 kPa

2. the absolute pressure in the tank after filling = 312 kPa

3. the ratio of the mass after filling M2 to that before filling M1 = 1.44

The correct relation is option c ( $\frac{M_{2} }{M_{1} } = \frac{P_{2} T_{1} }{P_{1} T_{2} }$ )

Explanation:

To find -

1. What is the absolute pressure in the tank before filling?

2. What is the absolute pressure in the tank after filling?

3. What is the ratio of the mass after filling M2 to that before filling M1 for this situation?

As we know that ,

Absolute pressure = Atmospheric pressure + Gage pressure

So,

Before filling the tank :

Given - Atmospheric pressure = 100 kPa , Gage pressure = 117 kPa

⇒Absolute pressure ( p1 ) = 100 + 117 = 217 kPa

Now,

After filling the tank :

Given - Atmospheric pressure = 100 kPa , Gage pressure = 212 kPa

⇒Absolute pressure (p2) = 100 + 212= 312 kPa

Now,

As given, volume is the same before and after filling,

i.e. $V_{1}$ = $V_{2}$

As we know that, P ∝ M

⇒ $\frac{p_{1} }{p_{2} } = \frac{m_{1} }{m_{2} }$

⇒ $\frac{m_{2} }{m_{1} } = \frac{p_{2} }{p_{1} }$

⇒ $\frac{m_{2} }{m_{1} } = \frac{312 }{217 } = 1.4378$ ≈ 1.44

Now, as we know that PV = nRT

As V is constant

⇒ P ∝ MT

⇒ $\frac{P}{T}$ ∝ M

⇒ $\frac{M_{2} }{M_{1} } = \frac{P_{2} T_{1} }{P_{1} T_{2} }$

So, The correct relation is c option.

Of the colors on the visible light spectrum, which one has the longest wavelength, lowest frequency, and lowest energy?

Elenna [48]

Answer:

Red

Explanation:

Violet - shortest wavelength, around 400-420 nanometers with highest frequency. They carry the most energy.

Indigo - 420 - 440 nm

Blue - 440 - 490 nm

Green - 490 - 570 nm

Yellow - 570 - 585 nm

Orange - 585 - 620 nm

Red - longest wavelength, at around 620 - 780 nanometers with lowest frequency and least amount of energy

Therefore, <em>red </em>is the answer you're looking for.

I hope this helps and that you have a great day! :)

Avogadro's Number - 6.022 × 10²³ atoms, molecules, formula units, etc.

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

<u>Step 1: Define</u>

103.4 g H₂S (Sulfuric Acid)

<u>Step 2: Identify Conversions</u>

Avogadro's Number

Molar Mass of H - 1.01 g/mol

Molar Mass of S - 32.07 g/mol

Molar Mass of H₂S - 2(1.01) + 32.07 = 34.09 g/mol

<u>Step 3: Convert</u>

Set up: $\displaystyle 103.4 \ g \ H_2S(\frac{1 \ mol \ H_2S}{34.09 \ g \ H_2S})(\frac{6.022 \cdot 10^{23} \ molecules \ H_2S}{1 \ mol \ H_2S})$
Multiply: $\displaystyle 1.82656 \cdot 10^{24} \ molecules \ H_2S$

<u>Step 4: Check</u>

<em>Follow sig fig rules and round. We are given 4 sig figs.</em>

1.82656 × 10²⁴ molecules H₂S ≈ 1.827 × 10²⁴ molecules H₂S
