A rotameter calibration curve (flow rate versus float position) obtained using a liquid is mistakenly used to measure a gas flow

rate. Would you expect the gas rate determined in this manner to be too high or too low?

Answer:

I would expect the gas rate determined in this manner to be too low

Explanation:

A Rotameter can be designed to respond to the sensitivity of density, velocity, to measure the flow rate of liquid or gas enclosed in a tube. Liquids are denser than gas, and since the gas rate to be determined needed to respond to the velocity head alone of the rotameter so as to bring the forces in the tube equilibrium. Knowing if there is no flow, then the float would remain at the bottom, so gas has to flow at a higher rate compared to the liquid so the float would be in a similar position making it easier to measure the flowrate. This leaves the gas rate to be determined too low.

How many bonds would be needed when bonding 2 atoms of nitrogen to achieve a full octet for both atoms?
andriy [413]

Answer:

3 bonds are needed.

Explanation:

The electrons that are involved in chemical bonding are those in the outer shell of the highest energy level of the atom. The electron configuration of nitrogen (N) is 1s²2s²2p³. That means thy at each nitrogen atom has 5 valence electrons: 2 electrons in the 2s orbital and 3 electrons in the 2p orbital. To fullfil the octet, each nitrogen atom needs 3 electrons. So, they can share each other 3 electrons to form 3 simple bonds. Therefore, the nitrogen molecule (N₂) has 3 bonds involving 6 bonding electrons or a triple bond.

The protein lysozyme unfolds at a transition temperature of 75.5°C, and the standard enthalpy of transition is 509 kJ mol-1. Cal
spin [16.1K]

Answer:

0.4774 KJ/K.mol

Explanation:

We are told that the transition at 25.0°C occurs in three steps. Steps i, ii and iii.

Thus;

the entropy of unfolding of lysozyme = ΔS_i + ΔS_ii + ΔS_iii

Now,

C_p,m(unfolded protein) = C_p,m(folded protein) + 6.28 kJ/K.mol

Now, for the first process, ΔS_i is given as;

ΔS_i = C_p,m × In(T2/T1)

We are given;

T1 = 25°C = 25 + 273.15K = 298.15 K

T2 = 75.5°C = 75.5 + 273.15 K=348.65 K

Thus;

ΔS_i = C_p,m × In(348.65/298.15)

Now, for the third process, ΔS_iii is given as;

ΔS_iii = (C_p,m + 6.28 kJ/K.mol) × In(T1/T2)

Thus;

ΔS_iii = (C_p,m + 6.28 kJ/K.mol) × In(298.15/348.65)

Now, we don't know C_pm. So, we have to find a way to eliminate it. We will do it by rewriting In(298.15/348.65) in such a way that when ΔS_iii is added to ΔS_i, C_p,m will cancel out. Thus;

In(298.15/348.65) can also be written as;

In(348.65/298.15)^(-1) or

- In(348.65/298.15)

Thus;

ΔS_iii = - [(C_p,m + 6.28 kJ/K.mol) × In(298.15/348.65)]

Now, let's add ΔS_iii to ΔS_i to get;

ΔS_i + ΔS_iii = [C_p,m × In(348.65/298.15)] + [(-C_p,m - 6.28 kJ/K.mol) × In(348.65/298.15)]

ΔS_i + ΔS_iii = [C_p,m × In(348.65/298.15)] - [C_p,m × In(348.65/298.15)] - [6.28In(348.65/298.15)]

First 2 terms will cancel out to give;

ΔS_i + ΔS_iii = -6.28In(348.65/298.15)

ΔS_i + ΔS_iii = -0.9826 KJ/K.mol

Now,for process ii;

ΔS_ii = standard enthalpy of transition/Transition Temperature

Thus;

ΔS_ii = (509 KJ/K.mol)/348.65

ΔS_ii = 1.46 KJ/K.mol

Thus;

the entropy of unfolding of lysozyme = ΔS_i + ΔS_ii + ΔS_iii = -0.9826 + 1.46 = 0.4774 KJ/K.mol

Which is a substance that could be found in air, water, or soil that is harmful to humans or animals? carbon dioxide fossil fuel
quester [9]
Hi!

The substance that could be found in air, water or soil that is harmful to humans or animals is called pollutant.

Pollutants are the only harmful substances that can be found in these three places. Carbon Dioxide (CO₂) is commonly found in the air, fossil fuels are found in soil and water and smog is found in the air. Only pollutant can be found in these three places as there are varied in its chemical structure. Common pollutants include Sulfur Dioxide (SO₂) which can be found in the air, and Lead, which can be found in water or soil.
