Answer:

Counting the number of colonies that arise on a pour plate can calculate the concentration by multiplying the count by the volume spread on the pour plate. Direct counting methods are easy to perform and do not require highly specialized equipment, but are often slower than other methods

Which situation would cause the following equilibrium reaction to decrease the formation of the products? 2SO2 (g) + O2 (g) Two

vovangra [49]

The given equilibrium reaction is,

$2 SO_{2} (g) + O_{2}(g) 2 SO_{3} (g) + Energy$

The given reaction is exothermic. So, heat energy will be a product. Therefore, decreasing the temperature (heat energy) would lead to the formation of more products as when the amount of energy which is a product is reduced, there is more room for the products to form.

Increasing the pressure would shift the equilibrium towards that side which has least number of moles of the gaseous substance. Hence, here increasing the pressure would lead to the formation of more products by shifting the equilibrium towards the right side.

Decreasing the volume would make the equilibrium shift towards the least number of moles of the gaseous substance. So, here in this equilibrium decreasing the volume would lead to the formation of more products.

the pressure in a sealed plastic container is 108 kPa at 41 degrees Celsius. What is the pressure when the temperature drops to

Katarina [22]

Answer: The new pressure will be 101.46 kPa.

Explanation:

To calculate the new pressure, we use the equation given by Gay-Lussac Law. This law states that pressure is directly proportional to the temperature of the gas at constant volume.

The equation given by this law is:

$\frac{P_1}{T_1}=\frac{P_2}{T_2}$

where,

$P_1\text{ and }T_1$ are initial pressure and temperature.

$P_2\text{ and }T_2$ are final pressure and temperature.

We are given:

By using conversion factor: $T(K)=T(^oC)+273$

$P_1=108kPa\\T_1=41^oC=314K\\P_2=?kPa\\T_2=22^oC=295K$

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$\frac{108kPa}{314K}=\frac{P_2}{295K}\\\\P_2=101.46kPa$

Hence, the new pressure will be 101.46 kPa.

Explain how a nuclear power plant functions and what safety precautions must be taken to ensure the safety of the power plant, i

Talja [164]

Nuclear energy originates from the splitting of uranium atoms – a process called fission. This generates heat to produce steam, which is used by a turbine generator to generate electricity. Although renewable energy sources, like wind and solar power, are important resources for a country’s energy mix, only nuclear power is capable of producing large amounts of electricity 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.

For safety precaution which regards to employees, several federal agencies—the US Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC), the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and the U.S. departments of Energy and Transportation—establish radiation protection regulations for U.S. nuclear plants based on internationally recognized scientific studies.

For the safety precaution of power plants itself, The NRC monitors plant performance according to three strategic areas: reactor safety, radiation safety and security.
