How does a thermometer measure temperature?

1 answer:

7 0

Sorry if this doesn’t help but here’s what I found:

A thermometer measures temperature through a glass tube sealed with mercury that expands or contracts as the temperature rises or falls. ... As temperatures rise, the mercury-filled bulb expands into the capillary tube. Its rate of expansion is calibrated on the glass scale.

How many grams of 02 are present in 7.49 L of oxygen gas?

const2013 [10]

Answer:

10.70grams

Explanation:

Density of a substance = mass/volume

At STP of a gas (standard temperature and pressure), the density of oxygen gas is 1.429 g/L

Hence, according to this question, in 7.49 L of oxygen gas, there would be:

Using D = m/V

1.429 = m/7.49

m = 1.429g/L × 7.49L

m = 10.70g

A bottle of wine contains 12.8% ethanol by volume. The density of ethanol (CH3OH) is 0.789 g/cm. Calculate the concentratic etha

Scrat [10]

Answer : The mass percent of ethanol is, 10.38 % and the molality of ethanol is, 2.52 mole/kg

Explanation :

In wine, the solute and solvent are ethanol and water respectively.

Given :

12.8 % ethanol by volume means 12.8 mL ethanol present in 100 mL solution.

Volume of ethanol = 12.8 mL

Volume of solution = 100 mL

Volume of water = 100 - 12.8 = 87.2 mL

Density of ethanol = $0.789g/cm^3=0.789g/mL$

Density of water = 1 g/mL

Now we have to calculate the mass of ethanol and water.

$\text{Mass of ethanol}=\text{Density of ethanol}\times \text{Volume of ethanol}=0.789g/mL\times 12.8mL=10.1g$

and,

$\text{Mass of water}=\text{Density of water}\times \text{Volume of water}=1g/mL\times 87.2mL=87.2g$

Now we have to calculate the total mass of 100 mL of wine.

Total mass of 100 mL of wine = 10.1 + 87.2 = 97.3 g

Now we have to calculate the mass percent of ethanol.

$\text{Mass of percent of ethanol}=\frac{\text{Mass of ethanol}}{\text{Total mass of solution}}\times 100$

$\text{Mass of percent of ethanol}=\frac{10.1g}{97.3g}\times 100=10.38\%$

The mass percent of ethanol is, 10.38 %

Now we have to calculate the molality.

$Molality=\frac{\text{Mass of solute}\times 1000}{\text{Molar mass of solute}\times \text{Mass of solvent}}$

Molar mass of ethanol = 46 g/mole

$Molality=\frac{10.1g\times 1000}{46g/mole\times 87.2g}=2.52mole/kg$

The molality of ethanol is, 2.52 mole/kg

Cuántos electrones de Valencia tiene Ga

Zinaida [17]

1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6 3d10 4s2 4p1

Primero realizas la configuración electrónica que es la que te puse allá arriba.

Después miras el nivel en que termina, puede ser 1, 2, 3, 4 etc.

Entonces como el último número de la configuración electrónica es 4, entonces ese es el nivel

Y los electrones de el último nivel son los de Valencia

4s2, 4p1 sumas 2+1 que son los electrones que se encuentran en el último nivel.

por eso hay 3 electrones de valencia.

EASY 100 POINTS, WILL MARK BRAINLEST, 2 QUESTIONS, SHOW YOUR WORK OR NO POINTS

SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Answer:

Explanation:

1. Please provide the enthalpy info - I will work on it with the info

i) Reaction a should be modified to match the number of S in equation:

2S + 2O2 -> 2SO2 deltaH = -370kJ

ii) Reaction b should be written reversely to match the reactants of SO2:

2SO2 + O2 -> 2SO3 deltaH = 256kJ

iii) Adding the equations together:

2S + 3O2 -> 2SO3

iv) Enthalpy of the combined reaction = -370+256 = -114kJ

It is negative so the reaction is exothermic.
