<u>Answer:</u> The correct statement is gas A effuses faster than gas B.

<u>Explanation:</u>

To know the rate of effusion of gases, we use Graham's law.

Graham's law states that the rate of effusion of a gas is inversely proportional to the square root of the molar mass of gas. The equation that calculates the rate of effusion of a gas is given by:

\text{Rate of diffusion}\propto \frac{1}{\sqrt{\text{Molar mass of the gas}}}

As, rate of effusion is inversely related to the molar mass of the gas, so the gas which have less molar mass will effuse faster than the gas which have more molar mass.

Molar mass of gas A = 4 grams

Molar mass of gas B = 16 grams

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\frac{Rate_{A}}{Rate_{B}}=\sqrt{\frac{M_{B}}{M_{A}}}&#10;

\frac{Rate_{A}}{Rate_{B}}=\sqrt{\frac{16}{4}}\\\\\frac{Rate_{A}}{Rate_{B}}=2\\\\Rate_A=2\times Rate_B

Rate of gas A is 2 times more than rate of Gas B. Hence, the correct statement is gas A effuses faster than gas B.

how much hydrogen will be released during the interaction of potassium weighing 8 grams with hydrochloric acid
krek1111 [17]

Answer:

With an understanding of the ideal gas laws, it is now possible to apply these principles to chemical stoichiometry problems. For example, zinc metal and hydrochloric acid (hydrogen chloride dissolved in water) react to form zinc (II) chloride and hydrogen gas according to the equation shown below:

2 HCl (aq) + Zn (s) → ZnCl2 (aq) + H2 (g)

Drag the tiles to the correct boxes to complete the pairs.
iragen [17]

Answer:

Solid:- Particles vibrate in a rigid structure and do not move relative to their neighbors.

Liquid:- It takes the shape of its container but keeps a constant volume.

Gas:- Particles move rapidly and independently of each other.

Plasma:- It is the most common state of matter in the universe.

Explanation:

Solids are one of the three states of matter and, unlike liquids or gases, they have a definite shape that is not easy to change. Different solids have particular properties such as stretch, STRENGTH, or hardness that make them useful for different jobs.

A liquid is a nearly incompressible fluid that conforms to the shape of its container but retains a (nearly) constant volume independent of pressure

Gas is a state of matter that has no fixed shape and no fixed volume. Gases have lower density than other states of matter, such as solids and liquids. When more gas particles enter a container, there is less space for the particles to spread out, and they become compressed. The particles exert more force on the interior volume of the container.

A plasma is a gas that has been energized to the point that some of the electrons break free from, but travel with, their nucleus.

Mark the statement as true or false All of the proposed ideas by Dalton, Thompson, and Rutherford are still used in the modern t
kvv77 [185]

False

Although we use many of their ideas to describe atoms today, such as the existence of a tiny, dense nucleus in an atom (proposed by Rutherford), or the notion that all atoms of an element are identical (proposed by Dalton), some of their ideas have been rejected by the modern theory of the atom.

For example, Thompson came up with the plum pudding model to describe an atom, which resembled a sphere of positive charge with electrons embedded in it. We know now, however, that atoms are mostly empty space with a tiny, dense nucleus.

Another example is Dalton's atomic theory, which stated that atoms are indivisible particles. However, this was disproved by the discovery of subatomic particles.

andreev551 [17]

Answer:

B. Thicker layer of blubber

Explanation:

For the leopard seals to survives this harsh environment, it must have a thicker layer of blubber

Blubber is a thick layer of fat. It is called the adipose tissues and found in most marine organisms.

  • This layer helps in insulating the body against heat loss.
  • By so doing, the animal is able to conserve internal heat.
  • They have low thermal conductivity and do not easily lose heat or gain heat as such.

A large weather balloon filled with helium has a volume of 7.00 x 102 L at STP. Which expression should be used to find the mass
balandron [24]

Answer:

mass of Helium = mole of Helium x Molarmass of Helium

Explanation:

Mole of Helium = volume of Helium/ 22.4dm^3/mol

                          = 7.00 x 10^2/22.4

                          = 31.25mol

Mass of Helium = mole of Helium x Molarmass of Helium

                           = 31.25mol x 4g/mol

                           = 125g
