Gases are compressible because most of the volume of a gas is composed of the large amounts of empty space between the gas particles. Hope this helped!

Answer:

Because large empty spaces are present between gas molecules.

Aqueous concentrated nitric acid is 69% hno3 by weight and has a density of 1.42 g/ml.
OleMash [197]

Answer: -

15.55 M

35.325 molal

Explanation: -

Let the volume of the solution be 1000 mL.

Density of nitric acid = 1.42 g/ mL

Total Mass of nitric acid Solution = Volume of nitric acid x Density of nitric acid

= 1000 mL x 1.42 g/ mL

= 1420 g.

Percentage of HNO₃ = 69%

Amount of HNO₃ = \frac{69} {100} x 1420 g

= 979.8 g

Molar mass of HNO₃ = 1 x 1 + 14 x 1 + 16 x 3 = 63 g /mol

Number of moles of HNO₃ = \frac{979.8 g}{63 g/ mol}

= 15.55 mol

Molarity is defined as number of moles per 1000 mL

We had taken 1000 mL as volume and found it to contain 15.55 moles.

Molarity of HNO₃ = 15.55 M

Mass of water = Total mass of nitric acid solution - mass of nitric acid

= 1420 - 979.8

= 440.2 g

So we see that 440.2 g of water contains 15.55 moles of HNO₃

Molality is defined as number of moles of HNO₃ present per 1000 g of water.

Molality of HNO₃ = \frac{15.55 x 1000}{440.2}

= 35.325 molal

Consider the following reaction at equilibrium: 2 NH3(g) ⇄ N2(g) + 3 H2(g) What does Le Chatelier's principle predict will happe
BabaBlast [244]

Answer : The equilibrium will shift in the left direction.

Explanation :

Le-Chatelier's principle : This principle states that if any change in the variables of the reaction, the equilibrium will shift in the direction to minimize the effect.

The given reaction is:

2NH_3(g)\rightleftharpoons N_2(g)+3H_2(g)

As per question, when we are adding N_2  then the concentration of N_2 is increased on product side then the equilibrium will shift in the direction where decrease of concentration of N_2 takes place. Therefore, the equilibrium will shift in the left direction.

Thus, the equilibrium will shift in the left direction.

Heat is being transferred from the ground to the air above it by conduction. Explain how this is possible.
Klio2033 [76]

Answer:

Conduction directly affects air temperature only a few centimeters into the atmosphere. During the day, sunlight heats the ground, which in turn heats the air directly above it via conduction. At night, the ground cools and the heat flows from the warmer air directly above to the cooler ground via conduction.

How does the type of chemical bonds present in a substance affect the substances properties?
SCORPION-xisa [38]
Once a chemical bond is formed, the atoms are rearranged to form a stronger bond, affecting the hardness, malleability, etc. The stronger the bond, the easier a substance will break, or, if its a liquid, it will resist seperation.
