Answer: Read Explanation

Explanation: Index fossils are useful because they tell the relative ages of the rock layers in which they occur. Geologists use particular types of organisms, such as trilobites, as index fossils.

A monatomic ideal gas that is initially at 1.50 * 105 Pa and has a volume of 0.0800 m3 is compressed adiabatically to a volume o
lubasha [3.4K]

Answer:

300000Pa or 3×10^5 Pa

Explanation:

Since the problem involves only two parameters of volume and pressure, the formula for Boyle's law is suitably used.

Using Boyle's law

P1V1 = P2V2

P1 is the initial pressure = 1.5×10^5Pa

V1 is the initial volume = 0.08m3

P2 is the final pressure (required)

V2 is the final volume = 0.04 m3

From the formula, P2 = P1V1/V2

P2 = 1.5×10^5 × 0.08 ÷ 0.04

= 300000Pa or 3×10^5 Pa.

Cuando se quema 1 mol de metano –o sea, 16 g–, se desprenden 802
Anvisha [2.4K]

Answer:

1 gramo de metano aporta 50.125 kilojoules.

1 gramo de metano aporta 48.246 kilojoules.

Explanation:

La cantidad de energía liberada por la combustión de una unidad de masa del hidrocarburo (Q), en kilojoules por mol, es igual a la cantidad de energía liberada por mol de compuesto (\bar {Q}), en kilojoules por mol, dividido por su masa molar (M), en gramos por mol:

Q = \frac{\bar Q}{M} (1)

A continuación, analizamos cada caso:

Metano

Q = \frac{802\,\frac{kJ}{mol} }{16\,\frac{g}{mol} }

Q = 50.125\,\frac{kJ}{g}

1 gramo de metano aporta 50.125 kilojoules.

Octano

Q = \frac{5500\,\frac{kJ}{mol} }{114\,\frac{g}{mol} }

Q = 48.246\,\frac{kJ}{mol}

1 gramo de metano aporta 48.246 kilojoules.

Explain why beryllium is produced when potassium is heated with beryllium
Vladimir [108]

Explanation:

The more reactive element replaces less reactive element during chemical reaction.

Since, potassium is more reactive than beryllium. When potassium reacts with beryllium choride, it replaces beryllium and forms potassium chloride and produces beryllium.
