Explanation:

A mixture is made of two or more substances that are not chemically combined whereas a compound is made of 2 or more elements that are chemically combined. The elements that make up the compound are combined in fixed ratios.

Four gases were combined in a gas cylinder with these partial pressures: 3. 5 atm N2, 2. 8 atm O2, 0. 25 atm Ar, and 0. 15 atm H

aksik [14]

The total pressure of the gas has been 11.9 atm.

The partial pressure has been the pressure exerted by the individual gas in the mixture.

According to the Dalton's law of Partial pressure, the pressure of the gas has been the sum of the partial pressure of each gas in the mixture.

<h3 /><h3>Computation for the pressure of gas</h3>

The given gas has partial pressure of Nitrogen, $P_{N_2}=3.5\;\rm atm$

The partial pressure of Oxygen, $P_{O_2}=8\;\rm atm$

The partial pressure of Argon, $P_{Ar}=0.25\;\rm atm$

The partial pressure of Helium, $P_{He}=0.15\;\rm atm$

The total pressure, (<em>P</em>) of the gas has been given as:

$P=P_{N_2}\;+\;P_{O_2}\;+\;P_{Ar}\;+\;P_{He}\\
P=3.5\;+8\;+\;0.25\;+\;0.15\;\text{atm}\\
P=11.9\;\rm atm$

The total pressure of the gas has been 11.9 atm.

A gaseous system undergoes a change in temperature and volume. What is the entropy change for a particle in this system if the f

deff fn [24]

Explanation:

Entropy means the amount of randomness present within the molecules of the body of a substance.

Relation between entropy and microstate is as follows.

S = $K_{b} \times ln \Omega$

where, S = entropy

$K_{b}$ = Boltzmann constant

$\Omega$ = number of microstates

This equation only holds good when the system is neither losing or gaining energy. And, in the given situation we assume that the system is neither gaining or losing energy.

Also, let us assume that $\Omega$ = 1, and $\Omega'$ = 0.833

Therefore, change in entropy will be calculated as follows.

$\Delta S = K_{b} \times ln \Omega' - K_{b} \times ln \Omega$

= $1.38 \times 10^{-23} \times ln(0.833) - 1.38 \times 10^{-23} \times \times ln(1)$

= $1.38 \times 10^{-23} \times (-0.182)$

= $-0.251 \times 10^{-23}$

or, = $-2.51 \times 10^{-24}$

Thus, we can conclude that the entropy change for a particle in the given system is $-2.51 \times 10^{-24}$ J/K particle.

How is it possible for scientists to do studies about things that happened?

Levart [38]

Because they can look at the fossils that they left behind and see what kind of animal it was and what happened to it if another animal is inside of the fossil or if the bones are misplaced

how does resistance change with temperature? is there more resistance or less resistance at higher temperatures?

timofeeve [1]

The resistance has a linear relationship with temperature because it increases as temperatures increases.

<h3>What is temperature?</h3>

Temperature refers to the activity (motion or thermal energy) in the atoms that form molecules.

The resistance of an electric conductor increases as the temperature increases since the thermal energy of subatomic electrons also increases.

In conclusion, the resistance has a linear relationship with temperature because it increases as temperatures increases.
