Explanation:

Electrical energy is defined as the energy flowing through a device due to the flow of electrons or charges from one point to another.

The energy present within an object or material due to the sum of its motion and potential energy is known as mechanical energy.

Thermal energy is defined as the energy present within an object because of the motion of its particles.

So, when we plug in and turn on a hair dryer then electrical energy starts to flow. As a result, some of its molecules will gain kinetic energy and some will have potential energy.

Hence, its sum will lead to formation of a mechanical energy. Since, this mechanical energy gets converted into thermal energy due to which hairs get dry.

Thus, we can conclude that the energy transformation that occurs when a hair dryer is plugged in and turned on is that electrical energy transforms into mechanical and thermal energy.

a flask was filled with SO2 at a partial pressure of 0.409 atm and O2 at a partial pressure of 0.601 atm. The following gas-phas
jarptica [38.1K]

Answer:

The equilibrium partial pressure of O2 is 0.545 atm

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Partial pressure of SO2 = 0.409 atm

Partial pressure of O2 = 0.601 atm

At equilibrium, the partial pressure of SO2 was 0.297 atm.

Step 2: The balanced equation

2SO2 + O2 ⇆ 2SO3

Step 3: The initial pressure

pSO2 = 0.409 atm

pO2 = 0.601 atm

pSO3 = 0 atm

Step 4: Calculate the pressure at the equilibrium

pSO2 = 0.409 - 2X atm

pO2 = 0.601 - X atm

pSO3 = 2X

pSO2 = 0.409 - 2X atm = 0.297

 X = 0.056 atm

pO2 = 0.601 - 0.056 = 0.545 atm

pSO3 = 2*0.056 = 0.112 atm

Step 5: Calculate Kp

Kp = (pSO3)²/((pO2)*(pSO2)²)

Kp = (0.112²) / (0.545 * 0.297²)

Kp = 0.261

The equilibrium partial pressure of O2 is 0.545 atm
