To locate objects in their environments, bats in flight and porpoises under water both use ultrasound waves with frequencies tha

t are beyond human hearing. These animals produce an ultrasonic wave and then detect echoes from nearby objects in order to determine the location of the object Porpoise Bat If a porpoise and a bat both produce ultrasonic waves when they are 16 meters from an object, which animal would hear its echo first? The bat would hear its echo first because sound travels faster in air than in water. O The porpoise would hear its echo first because sound travels faster in water than in air. O The bat would hear its echo first because the frequency of sound waves is greater in air than in water 0 The porpoise would hear its echo first because the frequency of sound waves is greater in water than in air.​

allochka39001 [22]
It benefits of the solar radiation for out planet is that it gives us heat, natural sunlight and its pollution free.The disadvantage for solar radiation is that there are also some toxic materials and hazardous products used during the manufacturing process of solar photovoltaic systems, which can indirectly affect the environment.

In CF4 and NF3, the ___electron groups on the central C and N atoms have a ___ arrangement. The shapes of the molecules are dete
enyata [817]

Answer:

Explanation:

In CF4 and NF3, the valence electron groups on the central C and N atoms have a tetrahedral arrangement. The shapes of the molecules are determined by the number of bonding and nonbonding of electrons: since CF4 has four bonded atom(s) and zero lone pair(s) of electrons, the shape is tetrahedral.

A 3000 MWt fast reactor has a 42% efficiency. This reactor operates for 23 months followed by a 1 month down time for refueling
n200080 [17]

Answer:

capacity factor = 0.952

Availability factor = 0.958

Explanation:

1) capacity factor

capacity factor = actual power output /  maximum power output

                        = (actual power output)/(efficiency * rated power output)

                       = \frac{1200}{\frac{42}{100}*3000}

= 0.952

2) Availability factor

Availability factor  = Actual operation time period/ total time period

                            = 23/24 = 0.958

In atmospheric chemistry, the following chemical reaction converts SO2, the predominant oxide of sulfur that comes from combusti
Misha Larkins [42]

Answer:

Explanation:

From the given information;

The chemical reaction can be well presented as follows:

\mathtt{SO_{2(g)} + \dfrac{1}{2}O_{2(g)} }  ⇄ \mathtt{3SO_{2(l)}}

Now, K is known to be the equilibrium constant and it can be represented in terms of each constituent activity:

i.e

K = \dfrac{a_{so_3}}{a_{so_2} a_{o_2}^{\frac{1}{2}}}

However, since we are dealing with liquids solutions;

K = \dfrac{1}{\dfrac{Pso_2}{P^0}\Big ( \dfrac{Po_2}{P^0} \Big)^{1/2}}   since the activity of a_{so_3} is equivalent to 1

Hence, under standard conditions(i.e at a pressure of 1 bar)

K = \dfrac{1}{Pso_2Po_2^{1/2}}

(b)

From the CRC Handbook, we are meant to determine the value of the Gibb free energy by applying the formula:

\Delta _{rxn} G^o = \sum \Delta_f \ G^o (products) - \sum \Delta_fG^o (reactants) \\ \\ = (1) (-368 \ kJ/mol) - (\dfrac{1}{2}) (0) - ((1) (-300.13 \ kJ/mol)) \\ \\ = -368 \ kJ/mol + 300.13 \ kJ/mol \\ \\  \simeq -68 \ kJ/mol

Thus, for this reaction; the Gibbs frree energy = -68 kJ/mol

(c)

Le's recall that:

At equilibrium, the instantaneous free energy is usually zero &

Q(reaction quotient) is equivalent to K(equilibrium constant)

So;

\mathtt{\Delta _{rxn} G = \Delta _{rxn} G^o + RT In Q}

\mathtt{0- \Delta _{rxn} G^o = RTIn K } \\ \\ \mathtt{ \Delta _{rxn} G^o = -RTIn K }  \\ \\  K = e^{\dfrac{\Delta_{rxn} G^o}{RT}} \\ \\  K = e^{^{\dfrac{67900 \ J/mol}{8.314 \ J/mol \times 298 \ K}} }

K =7.98390356\times 10^{11} \\ \\  \mathbf{K = 7.98 \times 10^{11}}

(d)

The direction by which the reaction will proceed can be determined if we can know the value of Q(reaction quotient).

This is because;

If  Q < K, then the reaction will proceed in the right direction towards the products.

However, if Q > K , then the reaction goes to the left direction. i.e to the reactants.

So;

Q= \dfrac{1}{Pso_2Po_2^{1/2}}

Since we are dealing with liquids;

Q= \dfrac{1}{1 \times 1^{1/2}}

Q = 1

Since Q < K; Then, the reaction proceeds in the right direction.

Hence, SO2 as well O2 will combine to yield SO3, then condensation will take place to form liquid.
