Harvey kept a balloon with a volume of 348 milliliters at 25.0˚C inside a freezer for a night. When he took it out, its new volu

ad-work [718]

Initial volume of the balloon = $V_{1}$ = 348 mL

Initial temperature of the balloon $T_{1}$ = $25.0^{0}C + 273 = 298 K$

Final volume of the balloon $V_{2}$ = 322 mL

Final temperature of the balloon = $T_{2} = ?$

According to Charles law, volume of an ideal gas is directly proportional to the temperature at constant pressure.

$\frac{V_{1} }{T_{1} } =\frac{V_{2} }{T_{2} }$

On plugging in the values,

$\frac{348mL}{298 K} =\frac{322 mL}{T_{2} }$

$T_{2} =276 K$

Therefore, the temperature of the freezer is 276 K

Gaseous methane will react with gaseous oxygen to produce gaseous carbon dioxide and gaseous water . Suppose 9.6 g of methane is

lianna [129]

Answer:

21.6 g

Explanation:

The reaction that takes place is:

CH₄ + 2O₂ → CO₂ + 2H₂O

First we convert the given masses of both reactants into moles, using their respective molar masses:

9.6 g CH₄ ÷ 16 g/mol = 0.6 mol CH₄

64.9 g O₂ ÷ 32 g/mol = 2.03 mol O₂

0.6 moles of CH₄ would react completely with (2 * 0.6) 1.2 moles of O₂. As there are more O₂ moles than required, O₂ is the reactant in excess and CH₄ is the limiting reactant.

Now we calculate how many moles of water are produced, using the number of moles of the limiting reactant:

0.6 mol CH₄ * $\frac{2molH_2O}{1molCH_4}$ = 1.2 mol H₂O

Finally we convert 1.2 moles of water into grams, using its molar mass:

1.2 mol * 18 g/mol = 21.6 g

Which option explains how some parts of a plant can be white?

just olya [345]

Some parts of a plant can be white because they do not contain chlorophyll.

Chlorophyll is a term to refer to a characteristic compound of most plants that has the function of:

Bring the green color to vegetables
Take charge of the photosynthesis process.

Some plants do not have as much chlorophyll in their systems. However, this does not affect their reproduction and growth because they have developed other feeding methods through their roots.

These plants that contain low amounts of chlorophyll have pale and white colorations because chlorophyll is what gives the plants their intense green color.

Note: This question is incomplete because options are missing. Nevertheless, I can answer it based on my prior knowledge.

What is the balanced equation and type of reaction for: Copper metal+aqueous silver nitrate

Gnesinka [82]

Answer:

Cu(s) + 2AgNO3(aq)→Cu(NO3)2(aq)+2Ag(s)

This chemical equation means:

One mole of solid copper plus two moles of aqueous silver nitrate produce one mole of copper(II) nitrate plus two moles of solid silver.

This is a single replacement reaction in which the metal copper replaces the metal silver.

An egg is placed in a graduated cylinder to determine its volume. The following data are obtained. What is the volume of the egg

Natalka [10]

If egg is dipped in cylinder then the volume of egg will be difference in the volumes before dipping egg (initial volume) and volume after dipping egg (final volume)

Volume of egg= 58.5-50.0 = 8.5 mL
