Part (a): The masses
From the periodic table:
molar mass of copper = 63.5 grams
This means that:
mass of 2..06 moles = 2.06 * 63.5 = 130.81 grams
comparing this mass with the 222 grams of silver, we will find that the mass of silver is greater.

Part (b): The atoms:
number of moles = mass / molar mass
number of moles of silver = 222 / 107.8 = 2.059 moles
each mole contains Avogadro's number of atoms.
Since number of moles of copper is slightly larger than nuber of moles of silver, this means that the number of atoms in the copper sample would be more.

You have a red ballooe that has a volume of 20 liters, a pressure of 1.5 atmospheres and a temperature of 28 C. What is the volu
ki77a [65]

Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

 P_{1} = 1.5 atm,     V_{1} = 20 L,  T_{1} = (28 + 273) K = 301 K

   P_{2} = 5 atm,     V_{2} = ?,  T_{2} = (50 + 273) K = 323 K

Formula to calculate the volume will be as follows.

         \frac{P_{1} \times V_{1}}{T_{1}} = \frac{P_{2} \times V_{2}}{T_{2}}

Putting the given values into the above formula as follows.

        \frac{P_{1} \times V_{1}}{T_{1}} = \frac{P_{2} \times V_{2}}{T_{2}}  

        \frac{1.5 atm \times 20 L}{301 K} = \frac{5 atm \times V_{2}}{323 K}  

                 V_{2} = 0.64 L

Thus, we can conclude that the change in volume of the balloon will be 0.64 L.

What do astronomers use to calculate the age of the universe? Select three options.
sasho [114]

The answers are

The age of the oldest stars

How fast distant galaxies are moving away from us

Patterns of background radiation.

Explanation:

The Astronomers calculate the age of the universe by looking for oldest stars, and by measuring the rate of expansion of the universe and back to big bang.

The Astronomers used the techniques like the age of oldest stars, how fast the distant galaxies are moving away from us, patterns of background radiation and along with the Big Bang as reference point, they estimate that the universe may be approximately 12 billion years old.

A mixture of 14.0 grams of H2, 84.0 grams of N2, and 64.0 grams of O2 are placed in a flask. The partial pressure of the O2 is 7
Hitman42 [59]

Answer:

P_{tot}=465.27torr

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, according to the given information, it will be possible for us to use the Dalton's law, in order to solve this problem. However, we first need to calculate the mole fraction of oxygen by firstly calculating the moles of each gas:

n_{H_2}=\frac{14.0g}{2.02g/mol} =6.93mol\\\\n_{N_2}=\frac{84.0g}{28.02g/mol}=3.00mol\\\\n_{O_2}=\frac{64.0}{16.00g/mol}  =2.00mol

Next, we calculate such mole fraction as follows:

x_{O_2}=\frac{2}{6.93+3+2} =0.168

Then, given the following equation:

P_{O_2}=P_{tot}*x_{O_2}

So we solve for the total pressure as follows:

P_{tot}=\frac{P_{O_2}}{x_{O_2}} \\\\P_{tot}=\frac{78.00torr}{0.168} \\\\P_{tot}=465.27torr

Regards!
