Answer: because air has mass.

Reasoning: The Atmosphere has little to do with the concept here.

Wind moving air, why would that resulting in pressure? Does wind push you aside make you exert pressure?

Though increased temperatures can increase pressure. It doesn't affect it fully.

the correct answer is the first one because air has mass.

when gases molecules hit a surface or wall or in a room, they exert forces on how much particles or how hard their hitting that surface. so the more wild (hot) the molecules are the more pressure there is.

Why do single cell organisms divide?

mixer [17]

Single-celled organisms which use asexual reproduction can do so very rapidly simply by dividing into two equal halves. This is called binary fission. In yeasts the cell does not divide equally in two halves; instead, there is a large mother cell and a smaller daughter cell. This is called budding.

Vitek1552 [10]

Answer: The mass of decane produced is $1.743\times 10^2g$

Explanation:

To calculate the number of moles, we use the equation:

$\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}$ ......(1)

Mass of hydrogen gas = 2.45 g

Molar mass of hydrogen gas = 2 g/mol

Putting values in equation 1:, we get:

$\text{Moles of }H_2=\frac{2.45g}{2g/mol}=1.225mol$

The chemical equation for the hydrogenation of decene follows:

$C_{10}H_{20}(l)+H_2(g)\rightarrow C_{10}H_{22}(s)$

As, decene is present in excess. So, it is considered as an excess reagent.

Thus, hydrogen gas is a limiting reagent because it limits the formation of products.

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

1 mole of hydrogen gas produces 1 mole of decane.

So, 1.225 moles of hydrogen gas will produce = $\frac{1}{1}\times 1.225=1.225mol$ of decane

Now, calculating the mass of decane by using equation 1, we get:

Moles of decane = 1.225 mol

Molar mass of decane = 142.30 g/mol

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$1.225mol=\frac{\text{Mass of decane}}{142.30g/mol}\\\\\text{Mass of carbon dioxide}=(1.225mol\times 142.30g/mol)=174.3g=1.743\times 10^2g$

Hence, the mass of decane produced is $1.743\times 10^2g$

CH4 (g) yields C(g) + 4H (g) (reaction for expansion)

anyanavicka [17]

Answer:

Here's what I find.

Explanation:

$\rm CH$_{4}$(g) $\, \rightleftharpoons \,$ C(g) + 4H(g)$

$\text{Same} =\begin{cases}1. & \text{The number of atoms of each element}\\2. & \text{The state of the methane molecules}\\4. &\text{The state of the carbon atoms}\\\end{cases}$

$\text{Different} =\begin{cases}3. & \text{The enthalpy change of the reaction}\\\end{cases}$

The sign of ΔH changes when you reverse the reaction.
