Answer:
d. 103.3
Explanation:
In the given question, the National Weather Service routinely supplies atmospheric pressure data to help pilots set their altimeters. And the units of atmospheric pressure used for reporting the atmospheric pressure data are inches of mercury. For a barometric pressure of 30.51 inches of mercury, we can calculate the pressure in kPa as follow:
In principle, 3.386 kPa is equivalent to the atmospheric pressure of 1 inch of mercury. Thus, 30.51 inches of mercury is equivalent to 30.51 in *(3.386 kPa/1 in) = 103.307 kPa.
Therefore, a barometric pressure of 30.51 inches of mercury corresponds to _____103.3_____ kPa.
Answer:A
Explanation:
The melting points of solids depend in the relative sizes of ions in the ionic lattice. The smaller the relative sizes of the ions, the higher the lattice energy and the stronger the lattice hence higher melting point. Comparing relative ionic sizes, fluoride ion is lesser in size than chloride ion hence NaF has a higher melting point than NaCl.
