Two substances (A and B) are placed at each end of a glass tube. The vapors of the substances form a solid that is closer to sub
stance A's end than to substance B's end.
Which conclusion will be made?
O Substance A has a greater molecular mass than substance B.
Substance B has a greater molecular mass than substance A.
The molecular masses of both substances are the same.
Substance A has a greater molecular mass than substance B
Explanation:
The greater the mass of a substance, the slower it will travel. If the solid formed closer to substance A, it means that substance A, travelled less and that it was slower, meaning it had a greater molecular mass.
The temperature of the air at this given elevation will be 53.32425°C
Explanation:
We can calculate the final temperature through the combined gas law. Therefore we will need to know 1 ) The initial volume, 2 ) The initial temperature, 3 ) Initial Pressure, 4 ) Final Volume, 5 ) Final Pressure.
Initial Volume = 1.2 L ; Initial Temperature = 25°C = 298.15 K ; Initial pressure = 1.0 atm ; Final Volume = 1.8 L ; Final pressure = 0.73 atm
We have all the information we need. Now let us substitute into the following formula, and solve for the final temperature ( T ),
PV / T = PV / T,
T = PVT / PV,
T = 0.73 atm 1.8 L 298.15 K / 1 atm 1.2 L = ( 0.73 1.8 298.15 / 1 1.2 ) K = 326.47425 K,
