Which has not been a major source of CFCs

ipn [44]

Answer : Any natural sources of CFC's are not known only the major sources like aerosols, propellants, refrigerants,etc are known. So, if any natural sources are given then it cannot be called as a major source for emitting CFC into environment.

If 495 milliliters of carbon dioxide at 25°C and 101.3 kilopascals reacts with excess water, what is the theoretical yield of ca

postnew [5]

Answer:- 1.24 g

Solution:- The balanced equation for the formation of carbonic acid by the reaction of carbon dioxide with water is:

$CO_2+H_2O\rightarrow H_2CO_3$

From balanced equation, there is 1:1 mol ratio between carbon dioxide and carbonic acid. So, moles of carbonic acid will be equal to the moles of carbon dioxide used.

Moles of carbon dioxide can be calculated using ideal gas law equation as it's volume, temperature and pressure are given.

we need to convert mL to L, degree C to kelvin and kilopascals to atm.

$495mL(\frac{1L}{1000mL})$ = 0.495 L

25 + 273 = 298 K

$101.3kPa(\frac{1atm}{101.3kPa)})$

= 1 atm

Ideal gas law equation is:

PV = nRT

We want to find out the n, so let's rearrange this:

$n=\frac{PV}{RT}$

R is the universal gas constant and it's value is $\frac{0.0821atm.L}{mol.K}$ .

Let's pug in the values in the equation and solve it for n.

$n=\frac{1*0.495}{0.0821*298}$

n = 0.02 mol

To convert the moles to grams we multiply the moles by the molar mass of carbonic acid.

Molar mass of carbonic acid = 2(1.008)+12.01+3(16.00)

= 2.016+12.01+48.00

= 62.03 gram per mol (rounded to two decimal places)

Let's multiply the moles by molar mass:

$0.02mol(\frac{62.03g}{mol})$

= 1.24 g

So, the theoretical yield of carbonic acid is 1.24 g.

Do you think thermal expansion affects all states of matter or just the solid? Explain your thinking.

torisob [31]

Answer:

All three states of matter (solid, liquid and gas) expand when heated. The atoms themselves do not expand, but the volume they take up does.

When a solid is heated, its atoms vibrate faster about their fixed points. The relative increase in the size of solids when heated is therefore small. Metal railway tracks have small gaps so that when the sun heats them, the tracks expand into these gaps and don’t buckle.

Liquids expand for the same reason, but because the bonds between separate molecules are usually less tight they expand more than solids. This is the principle behind liquid-in-glass thermometers. An increase in temperature results in the expansion of the liquid which means it rises up the glass.

Molecules within gases are further apart and weakly attracted to each other. Heat causes the molecules to move faster, (heat energy is converted to kinetic energy) which means that the volume of a gas increases more than the volume of a solid or liquid.

However, gases that are contained in a fixed volume cannot expand - and so increases in temperature result in increases in pressure.:
