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

Look at the equation CO2 + H2 = CO + H20.
sergejj [24]

Answer:

CO is considered as a product.

Explanation:

A general chemical equation for a combination reaction follows:

To write a chemical equation, we must follow some of the rules:

The reactants must be written on the left side of the direction arrow.

A '+' sign is written between the reactants, when more than one reactants are present.

An arrow is added after all the reactants are written in the direction where reaction is taking place. Here, the reaction is taking place in forward direction.

The products must be written on the right side of the direction arrow.

A '+' sign is written between the products, when more than one products are present.

For the given chemical equation:

are the reactants in the reaction and  are the products in the reaction.

Hence, CO is considered as a product.

A pump contains 0.5 L of air at 203kPa. You draw back on the piston of the pump until the pressure reads 25.4kPa. What is the vo
densk [106]
<h3><u> Answer</u>;</h3>

= 4.0 L

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>

Boyle's law states that the volume of a fixed mass of a gas is inversely proportional to pressure at a constant temperature.

Therefore; <em>Volume α 1/pressure</em>

<em>Mathematically; V α 1/P</em>

<em>V = kP, where k is a constant;</em>

<em>P1V1 = P2V2</em>

<em>V1 = 0.5 l, P1 =203 kPa, P2 = 25.4 kPa</em>

<em>V2 = (0.5 × 203 )/25.4 </em>

<em>     = 3.996 </em>

<em>    ≈ </em><em><u>4.0 L</u></em>

A 100g sample of a metal was heated to 100oC and then quickly transferred to an insulated container holding 100g of water at 22o
Lady_Fox [76]

Answer:

B) The metal temperature changed more than the water temperature did, but the metal lost

the same amount of thermal energy as the water gained.

Explanation:

Heat capacity or thermal capacity is defined as the amount of heat required by a given mass of a material to raise its temperature by one unit which means that the heat capacity of the water, that is the quantity of heat required to cause a rise from 22°C to 35°C that is a rise of 13°C is the quantity of heat that caused the drop in temperature of the metal from 100°C to 35°C a change of 65°C

The water has more capacity to absorb heat or a higher heat capacity than the metal

However, the first law of thermodynamics states that energy is neither created nor destroyed, but it changes from one form to another. In this case, the thermal energy lost by the metal is the same as the thermal or heat energy gained by the water
