Answer:

22Ω

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Potential difference  = 3.3V

Current  = 0.15A

Unknown:

Resistance  = ?

Solution:

According to ohm's law, potential difference, current and resistance are related by the expression below;

             V = I R

where V is the voltage

           I is the current

          R is the resistance

          3.3 = 0.15 x R

             R = \frac{3.3}{0.15}   = 22Ω

Determine the ph of a 0.188 m nh3 solution at 25°c. the kb of nh3 is 1.76 × 10-5.
Ber [7]
When NH3 is dissolved in water, it dissociates  partially producing NH4+ ions and OH- ions. It has an equation:
NH3 + H2O → NH4+ + OH- 

<span>We use the Kb expression to determine the [OH-] concentration,
</span>
<span>Kb = [NH4+] [OH-] /* [NH3] </span>

We can write NH4+ as OH- since they are of equal ratio. 
<span>(1.76*10^-5) = [OH-]² / 0.188 
</span><span>[OH-]² = 3.3088*10^-6 </span>
<span>[OH-] = 1.819*10^-3 </span>

We calculate for H+ concentration as follows:

<span>[H+] [OH-] = 10^-14 </span>
<span>[H+] = 10^-14 / [OH-] </span>
<span>[H+] = 10^-14 / (1.819*10^-3) </span>
<span>[H+] = 5.50*10^-12 </span>

<span>pH = -log [H+] </span>
<span>pH = -log (5.5*10^-12) </span>
<span>pH = 11.26</span>

What is the mass of copper that increases its temperature by 285 degrees celsius when 186,000 j of energy is applied?
Llana [10]
From reliable sources in the web, it may be searched that the specific heat of copper is approximately equal to 0.385 J/gC. The amount of heat that is required to raise a certain amount by certain number of degrees is given in the equation,
                              H = mcpdT
where H is heat, m is mass, cp is specific heat, and dT is temperature difference. Substituting the known values,
                           186,000 J = (m)(0.385 J/gC)(285C) 
                                     m = 1695.15 g

The volume of a gas is 200mL at 2.0atm. What will it's volume be at 4.0atm?​
BartSMP [9]

Answer:

V = 100 ml

Explanation:

P1V1 = P2V2

P1 = 2.0 atm

V1 = 200ml

P2 = 4.0 atm

V2 = ?

(2.0)(200) = (4.0)V2

400 = (4.0)V2

V2 = 100

What volume would be occupied by 8.1 g of a substance with a density of 1.65041 g/cm3 ? answer in units of cm3 ?
ladessa [460]
Hey there!

Mass = 8.1 g

density = 1.65041 g/cm³

Volume = ?

Therefore:

D = m / V

<span>1.65041  = 8.1 / V

V = 8.1 / </span><span>1.65041 g

V = 4.907 cm</span>³
