How many atoms are in 13.97 liters of water vapor at STP
Arisa [49]
<span>Let's </span>assume that water vapor has ideal gas behavior. <span>
Then we can use ideal gas formula,
PV = nRT<span>

</span><span>Where, P is the pressure of the gas (Pa), V is the volume of the gas (m³), n is the number of moles of gas (mol), R is the universal gas constant ( 8.314 J mol</span></span>⁻¹ K⁻¹) and T is temperature in Kelvin.<span>
<span>
</span>P = 1 atm = 101325 Pa (standard pressure)
V = 13.97 L = 13.97 x 10</span>⁻³ m³<span>
n = ?
R = 8.314 J mol</span>⁻¹ K⁻¹<span>
T = 0 °C = 273 K (standard temperature)
<span>
By substitution,
</span>101325 Pa x 13.97x 10</span>⁻³ m³ = n x 8.314 J mol⁻¹ K⁻¹ x 273 K<span>
                                          n = 0.624 mol
<span>
Hence, the moles of water vapor at STP is 0.624 mol.

According to the </span></span>Avogadro's constant, 1 mole of substance has 6.022 × 10²³ particles.
<span>
Hence, number of atoms in water vapor = 0.624 mol x </span>6.022 × 10²³ mol⁻¹
<span>                                                                = 3.758 x 10</span>²³<span>

</span>

Which statements indicate what the fossil record suggests about evolution on Earth? Check all that apply.
Gennadij [26K]

The following are the statements, which indicates that the fossil record suggests about evolution on Earth:  

1. Humans have only recently existed on Earth.  

2. The organisms originally lived only in Earth's water.  

3. The plants did not have flowers when dinosaurs existed.  

The fossil remains have been discovered in the rocks of all the ages. The simplest organisms fossils are witnessed in the oldest rocks, and the fossils of more composite species are found in the newest rocks. This supports the theory of evolution suggested by Darwin, according to which the simple life forms slowly gets evolved into more composite ones.
