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.

At what temperature does 0.019135 moles of Ne in a 878.3 mL container exert a pressure of 0.946 atm?
Reika [66]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

Temperature is 529.164 K

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

We are given

Number of moles of Ne (n) =  0.019135 moles

Volume (V) = 878.3 mL

Pressure (P) = 0.946 atm

We are required to calculate the temperature;

We can do this using the ideal gas law equation which is;

PV = nRT, where P is the pressure, n is the number of moles, V is the volume, R is the ideal gas constant (0.082057 Latm/mol/K) and T is the temperature.

From the equation;

T=\frac{PV}{nR}

T = \frac{(0.946)(0.8783)}{(0.082057)(0.019135)}

T=529.164 K

Therefore, the temperature will be 529.164 K.

What is the most important factor in determining climates.
Ira Lisetskai [31]

<u><em>Latitude</em></u><em> - </em>Many factors influence the climate of a region. The most important factor is latitude because different latitudes receive different amounts of solar radiation. The maximum annual temperature of the Earth, showing a roughly gradual temperature gradient from the low to the high latitudes.

In a redox reaction, the substance that accepts electrons is said to be
brilliants [131]
The substance doesn't have a specific name. We just say that that substance is being reduced. Remember this mnemonic - OILRIG where "Oxidation is Loss, Reduction is Gain" of electrons.
