A scuba diver is using scuba gear to breathe under water. The pressure on her lungs is 2.5 atm and her lung volume is 4.4 L. Wha

nikdorinn [45]

Answer:

Explanation:

The volume can be used by using the formula for Boyle's law which is

$P_1V_1 = P_2V_2 \\$

where

P1 is the initial pressure

P2 is the final pressure

V1 is the initial volume

V2 is the final volume

Since we're finding the final volume

$V_2 = \frac{P_1V_1}{P_2} \\$

We have

$V_2 = \frac{2.5 \times 4.4}{4.5} = \frac{11}{4.5} \\ = 2.444444....$

We have the final answer as

Hope this helps you

An experiment was conducted to see which metal pot would be better for cooking food quickly. The table below shows how quickly s

KengaRu [80]

Answer : It is a conclusion.

Explanation:

Conclusion: It is a judgement or decision which can be attained by reasoning.

From the observation table given we can conclude that :

Aluminum ,bronze and steel took 27,45 and 80 seconds to melt small piece of wax respectively which means that more time will be required by them to transfer heat to the food while cooking. Hence, food will take more time to cook in them.

Copper took less time of 15 seconds to melt the small piece of wax in comparison to other metal pots which means that it is a good conductor of heat in comparison to other. Hence, copper pot would be better for cooking food quickly.

After analyzing the observations and results in an experiment conclusion was made that copper pots are best for cooking foods.

If 100. ml of water is added to 25 ml of 5.0 m nacl, the final concentration is __________.

Iteru [2.4K]

We may apply a mass balance here. The total moles of NaCl will remain constant before and after the mixing of the solutions. We have three solutions:
1) 25 ml of 5 M NaCl
2) 100 ml of 0 M NaCl
3) A mixture of these solutions with volume 125 ml and concentration C

The moles of a substance are equal to the product of the concentration and volume. Thus:

25 * 5 + 100 * 0 = 125 * C
C = 1 M

The concentration of the final solution is 1 M.

Exactly how much time must elapse before 16 grams of potassium-42decays, leaving 2 grams of the original isotope?(1) 8 × 12.4 ho

AleksandrR [38]

The answer is <span>(3) 3 × 12.4 hours
</span>
To calculate this, we will use two equations:
$(1/2) ^{n} =x$
$t_{1/2} = \frac{t}{n}$
where:
<span>n - number of half-lives
</span>x - remained amount of the sample, in decimals
<span> $t_{1/2}$ - half-life length
</span>t - total time elapsed.

First, we have to calculate x and n. x is <span>remained amount of the sample, so if at the beginning were 16 grams of potassium-42, and now it remained 2 grams, then x is:
2 grams : x % = 16 grams : 100 %
x = 2 grams </span>× 100 percent ÷ 16 grams
x = 12.5% = 0.125

Thus:
<span> $(1/2) ^{n} =x$
</span> $(0.5) ^{n} =0.125$
$n*log(0.5)=log(0.125)$
$n= \frac{log(0.5)}{log(0.125)}$
$n=3$

It is known that the half-life of potassium-42 is 12.36 ≈ 12.4 hours.
Thus:
<span> $t_{1/2} = 12.4$
</span><span> $t_{1/2} *n = t$
</span> $t= 12.4*3$

Therefore, it must elapse 3 × 12.4 hours <span>before 16 grams of potassium-42 decays, leaving 2 grams of the original isotope</span>
