Answer:

7.186

Explanation:

The mean is the average of some given data from a sample point.

To calculate the mean, we use the formula below:

             Mean = ∑fx/∑f

Where f = frequency

           x = sample data

   

From the given pH of the solutions, we can form a table:

      x                                     f                                          fx

    7.15                                  1                                         7.15

    7.16                                  1                                         7.16

    7.18                                  1                                         7.18

    7.19                                  1                                         7.19

    7.20                                 3                                        21.6

    7.21                                  1                                         7.21

Now ∑fx = 7.15 +7.16 +7.18 + 7.19 + 7.20 + 7.21 = 57.49

         ∑f = 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 3 + 1 = 8

The mean = \frac{57.49}{8} = 7.18625 = 7.186

CaHeK987 [17]
<span>The correct option is C.i.e. AlCl3 Given: The valence of aluminum is +3, and the valence of chlorine is –1. Thus, 3 chlorine atoms each of (-1 charge )combine to make the charge balance because of Al (3+). Thus, 1 atom of Aluminum (Al) binds with three atoms of Chlorine (Cl).Thus, the net foromula becomes AlCl3</span>

a gas expands from 266 mL to 983 mL at constant temperature. calc the work done (in joules) by the gas if it expands against a v
Mkey [24]

Answer:

w₁ = 0 J

w₂ = -297 J

Explanation:

Step 1: Given data

Initial volume: 266 mL (0.266 L)

Final volume: 983 mL (0.983 L)

Step 2: Calculate the work done (in joules) by the gas if it expands against a vacuum

We will use the following expression.

w₁ = -P₁ × ΔV

Since the gas expands against a vacuum, P₁ = 0. Thus, w₁ = 0 J

Step 3:  Calculate the work done (in joules) by the gas if it expands against a constant pressure of 4.09 atm

We will use the following expression.

w₂ = -P₂ × ΔV

w₂ = -4.09 atm × (0.983 L-0.266 L) = -2.93 atm.L

Then, we convert w₂ to Joule using the conversion factor 1 atm.L = 101.325 J.

-2.93 atm.L × 101.325 J/1 atm.L = -297 J

How does adding energy affect the temperature of water?
4vir4ik [10]
If you add energy to water , you increase the temperature of water. This is why when you add so much heat to water, it will boil and become gas, as gases have more energy than liquids do, and liquids have more energy than solids do.
