Answer:

See Explanation

Explanation:

According to the question, it is established that the pain caused by a lot of insect bites owes to the acidity of the insect bites.

If this is true, then there is an urgent need to neutralize the acidic insect bite using a basic substance.

Hence the pH of the creams used to treat insect bites should be basic(having a high pH).

2. The compound methene can not exist because it is supposed to be derived from the alkane called methane which contains only one carbon atom.

In order to form an alkene, there must be a double bond between two carbon atoms. This is not possible because there is only one carbon atom in the hypothetical methene. Hence, a compound named methene cannot exist.

The two methods in the lab for measuring the volume of a geometric solid object are weighing it on the balance and measuring it

Yakvenalex [24]

Answer:

Measuring with a ruler and using final volume minus initial volume

Explanation:

You can measure the volume of a geometric object by measuring its sides with a ruler and calculating the volume according to the corresponding formula for each object. For example, for a rectangular prism it would be

$volume=length*width*height$

You can also measure the volume of an object by measuring how much water it displaces. To do this you have to fill a measuring cylinder with enough water for the object to be completely submerged and take note of the volume. Then, add the object and note again the volume of the water+object. The difference between both is the volume of the object.

$Volume of the object= volume of water and object - volume of water$

The advantage of the second method is that it can be used for objects with irregular shapes as long as they do not float.

How many grams of helium must be released to reduce the pressure to 65 atmatm assuming ideal gas behavior? Express the answer in

lyudmila [28]

The question is incomplete, here is the complete question:

How many grams of helium must be released to reduce the pressure to 65 atm assuming ideal gas behavior. Note : 334-mL cylinder for use in chemistry lectures contains 5.209 g of helium at 23°C.

<u>Answer:</u> The mass of helium released is 1.6 grams

<u>Explanation:</u>

We are given:

Mass of helium in the cylinder = 5.209 g

To calculate the number of moles, we use the equation given by ideal gas equation:

PV = nRT

Or,

$PV=\frac{w}{M}RT$

where,

P = Pressure of the gas = 65 atm

V = Volume of the gas = 334 mL = 0.334 L (Conversion factor: 1 L = 1000 mL)

w = Weight of the gas = ?

M = Molar mass of helium gas = 4 g/mol

R = Gas constant = $0.0821\text{ L atm }mol^{-1}K^{-1}$

T = Temperature of the gas = $23^oC=[23+273]K=296K$

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$65atm\times 0.334L=\frac{w}{4g/mol}\times 0.0821\text{ L atm }mol^{-1}K^{-1}\times 296K\\\\w=\frac{65\times 0.334\times 4}{0.0821\times 296}=3.573g$

Mass of helium released = (5.209 - 3.573) g = 1.636 g = 1.6 g

Hence, the mass of helium released is 1.6 grams
