Why are we able to measure the atmospheric pressure in the room and equate this to the pressure of a gas in a test tube?

Atmospheric pressure is measured with a barometer. A barometer consists of an evacuated vertical tube with its top end closed and its bottom end resting in a container of mercury that is open to the atmosphere The pressure exerted by the atmosphere acts on the exposed surface of the liquid to force mercury up into the tube. Sea level atmospheric pressure will support a mercury column generally not more than 29.92-in. high. Thus, the standard for atmospheric pressure at sea level is 29.92 in.-Hg, which translates to an absolute pressure of 14.69 psia.
The two basic reference points in all these measurements are standard atmospheric pressure and a perfect vacuum.

prohojiy [21]

Explanation:

A point of temperature at which both solid and liquid state of a substance remains in equilibrium without any change in temperature then this temperature is known as melting point.

For example, melting point of water is 0 ^{o}C. So, at this temperature solid state of water and liquid state are present in equilibrium with each other.

Therefore, when a 100 g of given pure metal in solid state is heated at its exact melting point which is 215^{o}C then some of the solid will change into liquid state but the temperature will remains the same.

Answer:

Copper(II) sulphate – sodium hydroxide reaction

The reaction between copper(Il) sulphate and sodium hydroxide solutions is a good place to start. If you slowly add one to the other while stirring, you will get a precipitate of copper(II) hydroxide, Cu(OH)2.

A solution has a pH of 11.8. What is the pOH?
amid [387]

Answer:

pOH is 2.2

Explanation:

The pH scale goes from 0 to 14. As such, the pH and the pOH add up to 14. Subtract your pH from 14 to get your answer.

14 - 11.8 = 2.2

Explain Rutherford Bohr model?
Liula [17]

Answer:

heya!!!

Explanation:

In atomic physics, the Rutherford–Bohr model or Bohr model, presented by Niels Bohr and Ernest Rutherford in 1913, is a system consisting of a small, dense nucleus surrounded by orbiting electrons—similar to the structure of the Solar System, but with attraction provided by electrostatic forces in place of gravity.
