Marking brainlist Why are resources such as coal, oil, or natural gas considered nonrenewable?

1 answer:

3 0

Renewable and nonrenewable resources are energy sources that human society uses to function on a daily basis. The difference between these two types of resources is that renewable resources can naturally replenish themselves while nonrenewable resources cannot. This means that nonrenewable resources are limited in supply and cannot be used sustainably.

Lol, I hope that was helpful!

What part of an atom has no relative mass

Debora [2.8K]

Answer: Electrons

Explanation:

White phosphorous has the chemical formula p4(s). a p4 molecule has 20 valence electrons. draw a lewis formula for a white phosp

aev [14]

The Lewis structure of P₄ is shown in 3-D form. The two bottom corner P atoms are facing right in front of us, one P atom behind the two, and one P above it. Each line represents 2 electrons. When you add the lone electrons, you get a total of 20 valence electrons.

Formal charge of each P: 5 - (2 +1/2*6) = 0

A movable piston traps 0.205 moles of an ideal gas in a vertical cylinder. If the piston slides without friction in the cylinder

Mazyrski [523]

Answer : The work done on the gas will be, 418.4 J

Explanation :

First we have to calculate the volume at 270°C.

$PV_1=nRT$

where,

P = pressure of gas = 1 atm

$V_1$ = volume of gas = ?

T = temperature of gas = $270^oC=273+270=543K$

n = number of moles of gas = 0.205 mol

R = gas constant = 0.0821 L.atm/mol.K

Now put all the given values in the ideal gas equation, we get:

$(1atm)\times V_1=0.205mol\times 0.0821L.atm/mol.K\times 543K$

$V_1=9.12L$

Now we have to calculate the volume at 24°C.

$PV_2=nRT$

where,

P = pressure of gas = 1 atm

$V_2$ = volume of gas = ?

T = temperature of gas = $24^oC=273+24=297K$

n = number of moles of gas = 0.205 mol

R = gas constant = 0.0821 L.atm/mol.K

Now put all the given values in the ideal gas equation, we get:

$(1atm)\times V_2=0.205mol\times 0.0821L.atm/mol.K\times 297K$

$V_2=4.99L$

Now we have to calculate the work done.

Formula used :

$w=-p\Delta V\\\\w=-p(V_2-V_1)$

where,

w = work done

p = pressure of the gas = 1 atm

$V_1$ = initial volume = 9.12 L

$V_2$ = final volume = 4.99 L

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get:

$w=-p(V_2-V_1)$

$w=-(1atm)\times (4.99-9.12)L$

$w=4.13L.artm=4.13\times 101.3J=418.4J$

conversion used : (1 L.atm = 101.3 J)

Therefore, the work done on the gas will be, 418.4 J
