Calculate the ratio of the velocity of helium atoms to the velocity of neon atoms at the same temperature.

Chemistry
1 answer:
o-na [289]3 years ago

Answer:

vHe / vNe = 2.24

Explanation:

To obtain the velocity of an ideal gas you must use the formula:

v = √3RT / √M

Where R is gas constant (8.314 kgm²/s²molK); T is temperature and M is molar mass of the gas (4x10⁻³kg/mol for helium and 20,18x10⁻³ kg/mol for neon). Thus:

vHe = √3×8.314 kgm²/s²molK×T / √4x10⁻³kg/mol

vNe = √3×8.314 kgm²/s²molK×T / √20.18x10⁻³kg/mol

The ratio is:

vHe / vNe = √3×8.314 kgm²/s²molK×T / √4x10⁻³kg/mol / √3×8.314 kgm²/s²molK×T / √20.18x10⁻³kg/mol

vHe / vNe = √20.18x10⁻³kg/mol / √4x10⁻³kg/mol

<em>vHe / vNe = 2.24</em>

I hope it helps!

How are ironic bonds and covalent bonds different and how are they different?
Vinil7 [7]
Ionic bonds are forces that hold together electrostatic forces of attractions between oppositely charged ions. Ionic bonds have an electronegativity difference greater than or equal to 2. Covalent bonds have an electronegativity difference that is less than 2.

You have an unknown quantity of oxygen at a pressure of 2.2 atam, a volume of 21 liters and a temperature of 87 Celsius. How man
laila [671]

<span>Let's assume that the oxygen gas has ideal gas behavior. 
Then we can use ideal gas formula,
      PV = nRT</span>


Where, P is the pressure of the gas (Pa), V is the volume of the gas (m³), n is the number of moles of gas (mol), R is the universal gas constant ( 8.314 J mol⁻¹ K⁻¹) and T is temperature in Kelvin.

P = 2.2 atm = 222915 Pa
V = 21 L = 21 x 10</span>⁻³ m³

n = ?

R = 8.314 J mol⁻¹ K⁻¹

What volume will 0.405 g of krypton gas occupy at STP?
Rufina [12.5K]

Answer:

The answer to your question is V = 0.108 L or 108 ml

Explanation:

Data

Volume = ?

mass = 0.405 g

Temperature = 273°K

Pressure = 1 atm

Process

1.- Convert mass of Kr to moles

                  83.8 g of Kr -------------------- 1 mol

                     0.405 g     -------------------  x

                     x = (0.405 x 1) / 83.8

                     x = 0.0048 moles

2.- Use the Ideal gas law to solve this problem

                   PV = nRT

- Solve for V

                      V = nRT / P

- Substitution

                      V = (0.0048)(0.082)(273) / 1

- Simplification

                       V = 0.108 / 1

- Result

                       V = 0.108 L

If the temperature of a liquid-vapor system at equilibrium increases, the new equilibrium condition will
nikdorinn [45]
If the temperature of a liquid-vapor system at equilibrium increases, it will shift towards the vapor phase, assuming that the pressure remains equal. The concentration of vapor will also increase relative to the concentration of liquid in the system. Thus, the new equilibrium condition will have more vapor than liquid.

What is the primary reason that atomic radius decreases as you move from left to right across the periodic table even through th
Anika [276]

Answer:

As you move across a period the electrons are being added to the same shell. But, protons are being added as well. This makes the nucleus more positively charged and, increasing protons has a greater effect than electrons. So, there is a greater nuclear attraction and, because the electrons are being added to the same shell that shell gets pulled in more. This causes a decrease in atomic radius.
