Why does air exert pressure?

Chemistry
2 answers:
Licemer1 [7]3 years ago
5 0

<u>Answer:</u> because air has mass.

<u>Reasoning:</u> 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.

I have 50.00 mL of 0.100 M ethyl amine (C2H5NH2). I gradually add a solution of 0.025 M nitric acid (HNO3) to the ethyl amine so
sergeinik [125]

Answer:

4.00 is the pH of the mixture

Explanation:

The ethyl amine reacts with HNO3 as follows:

C2H5NH2 + HNO3 → C2H5NH3⁺ + NO3⁻

To solve this question we need to find the moles of ethyl amine and the moles of HNO3:

<em>Moles C2H5NH2:</em>

0.0500L * (0.100mol/L) = 0.00500 moles ethyl amine

<em>Moles HNO3:</em>

0.201L * (0.025mol/L) = 0.005025 moles HNO3

That means HNO3 is in excess. The moles in excess are:

0.005025 moles HNO3 - 0.00500 moles ethyl amine =

2.5x10⁻⁵ moles HNO₃

In 50 + 201mL = 251mL = 0.251L:

2.5x10⁻⁵ moles HNO₃ / 0.251L = 9.96x10⁻⁵M = [H+]

As pH = -log [H+]

pH = -log 9.96x10⁻⁵M

pH = 4.00 is the pH of the mixture

The reaction below shows how silver chloride can be synthesized.
Vesna [10]
AgNO_{3} _{(aq)}  +  NaCl_{(aq)}  ----\ \textgreater \   NaNO_{3} _{(aq)}   +  AgCl _{(aq)}
mole ration of AgCl _{(aq)}  :  AgNO_{3} _{(aq)} =  1 : 1

∴ if moles of  AgNO_{3} _{(aq)} =  15.0 mol
then   "      "     AgCl _{(aq)}  =  15.0 mol

∴  the Option  2 is the answer.

A 6.50x10^-5 m solution of potassium permanganate has a percent transmittance of 27.3% when measured in a 1.15 cm cell at a wave
mihalych1998 [28]
For this problem, we use the Beer Lambert's Law. Its usual equation is:

A = ∈LC
where
A is the absorbance
∈ is the molar absorptivity
L is the path length
C is the concentration of the sample solution

As you notice, we only have to find the absorbance. But since we are not given with the molar absorptivity, we will have to use the modified equation that relates % transmittance to absorbance:

A = 2 - log(%T)
A = 2 - log(27.3)
A = 0.5638

Cacodyl, which has an intolerable garlicky odor and is used in the manufacture of cacodylic acid, a cotton herbicide, has a mass
Papessa [141]

Answer:

The molecular formula of cacodyl is C₄H₁₂As₂.

Explanation:

<u>Let's assume we have 1 mol of cacodyl</u>, in that case we'd have 209.96 g of cacodyl and the<u> following masses of its components</u>:

  • 209.96 g * 22.88/100 = 48.04 g C
  • 209.96 g * 5.76/100 = 12.09 g H
  • 209.96 g * 71.36/100 = 149.83 g As

Now we convert those masses into moles:

  • 48.04 g C ÷ 12 g/mol = 4.00 mol C
  • 12.09 g H ÷ 1 g/mol = 12.09 mol H
  • 149.83 g As ÷ 74.92 g/mol = 2.00 mol As

Those amounts of moles represent the amount of each component in 1 mol of cacodyl, thus, the molecular formula of cacodyl is C₄H₁₂As₂.
