Answer:

the anode material is graphite(replaceable graphite rods).

The oxygen gas burns away the anode as Carbon dioxide therefore the anode must be replaced continuously.

A chemist can determine the mass of K in a sample of known mass that consists of either pure K2O or pure K2O2. From this informa
Arte-miy333 [17]

Yes , the chemist can answer if the compound in K2O or K2O2

The chemical formula and composition of both the compounds is entirely different. The compound K2O2 has an additional molecule of oxygen than K2O and hence will have have higher molecular mass.

In the compound K2O

molecular mass= 2x 39+16 =94

mass ratio of K in compound= 78/94 = 0.830

In the compound K2O2

molecular mass= 2x 39+16X2 =110

mass ratio of K in compound= 78/110 = 0.710

and hence by the required ratio while extracting K , the chemist may know if the compound is K20 or K2O2

If the ratio is anything different from 0.830 and 0.710 then the compund will be something different

Which of these acids occurs naturally in the body and performs important regulatory functions? carbonic acid acetic acid magnesi
Svetach [21]

Answer: Carbonic acid occurs naturally in the body and performs important regulatory functions.

Explanation: Carbonic acid ( H_2CO_3 ) is an acid formed from the carbon dioxide present in the body. It is also known as the respiratory acid as it helps in the transport of carbon dioxide in the body.

With the help of enzyme Carbonic Anhydrase, carbon dioxide is converted into carbonic acid. This acid is an unstable intermediate which gets dissociated into bicarbonate ions ( HCO_3^- ) and H^+ ions. immediatley.

Therefore, Carbonic acid performs important regulatory functions in the body.

A 1.93-mol sample of xenon gas is maintained in a 0.805-L container at 306 K. Calculate the pressure of the gas using both the i
Alex

Answer : The pressure of the gas using both the ideal gas law and the van der Waals equation is, 60.2 atm and 44.6 atm respectively.

Explanation :

First we have to calculate the pressure of gas by using ideal gas equation.

PV=nRT

where,

P = Pressure of Xe gas = ?

V = Volume of Xe gas = 0.805 L

n = number of moles Xe = 1.93 mole

R = Gas constant = 0.0821L.atm/mol.K

T = Temperature of Xe gas = 306 K

Now put all the given values in above equation, we get:

P\times 0.805L=1.93mole\times (0.0821L.atm/mol.K)\times 306K

P=60.2atm

Now we have to calculate the pressure of gas by using van der Waals equation.

(P+\frac{an^2}{V^2})(V-nb)=nRT

P = Pressure of Xe gas = ?

V = Volume of Xe gas = 0.805 L

n = number of moles Xe = 1.93 mole

R = Gas constant = 0.0821L.atm/mol.K

T = Temperature of Xe gas = 306 K

a = pressure constant = 4.19L^2atm/mol^2

b = volume constant = 5.11\times 10^{-2}L/mol

Now put all the given values in above equation, we get:

(P+\frac{(4.19L^2atm/mol^2)\times (1.93mole)^2}{(0.805L)^2})[0.805L-(1.93mole)\times (5.11\times 10^{-2}L/mol)]=1.93mole\times (0.0821L.atm/mol.K)\times 306K

P=44.6atm

Therefore, the pressure of the gas using both the ideal gas law and the van der Waals equation is, 60.2 atm and 44.6 atm respectively.

hi have a nice day

will be less than 26 °C as water has a relatively higher specific heat than sand.

Explanation:

The specific heat of a substance is the amount of heat energy absorbed by one unit of mass of the substance when its temperature increases one unit.

From that, you can derive the equation for the specific heat of a substance:

specific heat = heat / (mass × ΔT)

Thus, assuming that all the heat provided by the lamp to both samples is the same and, as given, the amount (mass) of both samples is also the same, you have that the specific heat of the samples will be:

specific heat = constant / ΔT

So, specific heat and ΔT are inversely related.

It is known that water has a higher specific heat than sand (that is why the sand on the shore of a beach is, during the day, hotter than the water and your feet get burned when you walk on a sandy beach on a sunny day
