How does the temperature of the air change with altitude?

As you increase in elevation, there is less air above you thus the pressure decreases. As the pressure decreases, air molecules spread out further (i.e. air expands) and the temperature decreases. If the humidity is at 100 percent (because it's snowing), the temperature decreases more slowly with height.

How is an oxidation half-reaction written using the reduction potential chart? How is the oxidation potential voltage determined
insens350 [35]
Oxidation  half  reaction  is  written   as    follows when  using  using  reduction potential  chart
example  when  using  copper  it is  written  as  follows
CU2+   +2e-  --> c(s)  +0.34v
 oxidasation  is the  loos  of  electron  hence copper oxidation  potential  is  as  follows
cu (s)  -->  CU2+   +2e    -0.34v

Calculate the concentration of all ions present in each of the following solutions of strong electrolytes. a. 0.100 mole of Ca(N
pickupchik [31]

Answer:

[Ca²⁺] = 1M

[NO₃⁻] = 2M

Explanation:

Calcium nitrate dissociates in water as follows:

Ca(NO₃)₂ ⇒ Ca²⁺ + 2NO₃⁻

The moles of Ca²⁺ can be found using the molar relationship between Ca(NO₃)₂ and Ca²⁺

(0.100mol Ca(NO₃)₂) (Ca²⁺ /Ca(NO₃)₂) = 0.100 mol Ca²⁺

The concentration of Ca²⁺  is then:

[Ca²⁺] = n/V = (0.100mol)/(100.0mL) x (1000ml)/(1L) = 1M

Similarly, moles of NO₃⁻ can be found using the molar relationship between Ca(NO₃)₂ and NO₃⁻:

(0.100mol Ca(NO₃)₂) (2NO₃⁻/Ca(NO₃)₂) = 0.200 mol NO₃⁻

The concentration of NO₃⁻ is then:

[NO₃⁻] = (0.200mol)/(100.0mL) x (1000ml)/(1L) = 2M

Two moles of an ideal gas are placed in a container whose volume is 2.3 x 10^-3 m3. The absolute pressure of the gas is 6.9 x 10
PtichkaEL [24]

Answer:

K.E.=1.97\times 10^{-21}\ J

Explanation:

Given that:-

Pressure = 6.9\times 10^5\ Pa

The expression for the conversion of pressure in Pascal to pressure in atm is shown below:

P (Pa) = \frac {1}{101325} P (atm)

Given the value of pressure = 43,836 Pa

So,  

6.9\times 10^5\ Pa = \frac{6.9\times 10^5}{101325} atm

Pressure = 6.80977 atm

Volume = 2.3\times 10^{-3}\ m^3 = 2.3 L ( 1 m³ = 1000 L)

n = 2 mol

Using ideal gas equation as:

PV=nRT

where,  

P is the pressure

V is the volume

n is the number of moles

T is the temperature  

R is Gas constant having value = 0.0821 L.atm/K.mol

Applying the equation as:

6.80977 atm × 2.3 L = 2 mol × 0.0821 L.atm/K.mol × T

⇒T = 95.39 K

The expression for the kinetic energy is:-

K.E.=\frac{3}{2}\times K\times T

k is Boltzmann's constant = 1.38\times 10^{-23}\ J/K

T is the temperature

So, K.E.=\frac{3}{2}\times 1.38\times 10^{-23}\times 95.39\ J

K.E.=1.97\times 10^{-21}\ J
