Greenhouse effect.
Here is what the greenhouse effect does:the trapping of the sun's warmth in a planet's lower atmosphere due to the greater transparency of the atmosphere to visible radiation from the sun than to infrared radiation emitted from the planet's surface.

Increasing the temperature of gas in a container that cannot expand is a way to _______. decrease the volume of the gas decrease

alex41 [277]

Answer:

Increase the pressure of the gas

Explanation:

According to the Pressure law, for a fixed mass of gas, at a constant volume (V), the pressure (P) is directly proportional to the absolute temperature (T).

From the kinetic molecular theory, gases are composed of particles which are in constant motion, colliding with themselves as well as with the walls of their container.

When the temperature of these gas molecules is increased, the molecules acquire more kinetic energy and the rate of collisions increases. Since the container cannot expand, the increase in pressure is due to the increase in collisions between the molecules of the gas as well as with the walls of their container.

In a particular experiment, 2.50-g samples of each reagent are reacted. The theoretical yield of lithium nitride is ________ g.

Neporo4naja [7]

Answer:

4.18 g

Explanation:

The formula for the calculation of moles is shown below:

$moles = \frac{Mass\ taken}{Molar\ mass}$

Given: For Li

Given mass = 2.50 g

Molar mass of Li = 6.94 g/mol

Moles of Li = 2.50 g / 6.94 g/mol = 0.3602 moles

Given: For $N_2$

Given mass = 2.50 g

Molar mass of $N_2$ = 28.02 g/mol

Moles of $N_2$ = 2.50 g / 28.02 g/mol = 0.08924 moles

According to the given reaction:

$6Li+N_2\rightarrow 2Li_3N$

6 moles of Li react with 1 mole of $N_2$

1 mole of Li react with 1/6 mole of $N_2$

0.3602 mole of Li react with $\frac {1}{6}\times 0.3602$ mole of $N_2$

Moles of $N_2$ that will react = 0.06 moles

Available moles of $N_2$ = 0.08924 moles

$N_2$ is in large excess. (0.08924 > 0.06)

Limiting reagent is the one which is present in small amount. Thus,

Li is limiting reagent.

The formation of the product is governed by the limiting reagent. So,

6 moles of Li gives 2 mole of $Li_3N$

1 mole of Li gives 2/6 mole of $Li_3N$

0.3602 mole of Li react with $\frac {2}{6}\times 0.3602$ mole of $Li_3N$

Moles of $Li_3N$ = 0.12

Molar mass of $Li_3N$ = 34.83 g/mol

Mass of $Li_3N$ = Moles × Molar mass = 0.12 × 34.83 g = 4.18 g

Theoretical yield = 4.18 g

How many significant figures are needed in the answer when 1.31m is multiplied by 6.5 m

dmitriy555 [2]

Answer:

two

Explanation:

The number of significant figures needed in the answer is 2.

This is because when finding the products of two numbers, the result is as accurate as the least number of significant figures of the numbers being multiplied.

Here the numbers being multiplied are;

1.31m

6.5m

1.31m has 3 significant figures

6.5m has 2 significant figures.

So, the product will have 2 significant figures

Why was alchemy so confusing?

galina1969 [7]

Featured snippet from the web
Alchemy is extremely complicated. It is based on the practical skills of early metal workers and craftsmen, on Greek philosophy, and on Eastern mystic cults that sprang up in the first centuries after Christ and influenced so much of magic and occult thought.
