Answer:

Sponge is a solid yet we able to compress it because it has holes in it.

When we compress the sponge the air goes out of those pores. When we leave the sponge, it remains as a solid.

A 2. 75-l container filled with co2 gas at 25°c and 225 kpa pressure springs a leak. When the container is re-sealed, the pressu
Serjik [45]

The number of moles of gas lost is  0.0213 mol. It can be solved with the help of Ideal gas law.

<h3>What is Ideal law ?</h3>

According to this law, "the volume of a given amount of gas is directly proportional to the number on moles of gas, directly proportional to the temperature and inversely proportional to the pressure. i.e.

PV = nRT.

Where,

  • p = pressure
  • V = volume (1.75 L = 1.75 x 10⁻³ m³)
  • T =  absolute temperature
  • n = number of moles
  • R =  gas constant, 8.314 J*(mol-K)

Therefore, the number of moles is

n = PV / RT

State 1 :

  • T₁ = (25⁰ C = 25+273 = 298 K)
  • p₁ = 225 kPa = 225 x 10³ N/m²

State 2 :

  • T₂ = 10 C = 283 K
  • p₂ = 185 kPa = 185 x 10³ N/m²

The loss in moles of gas from state 1 to state 2 is

Δn = V/R (P₁/T₁ - P₂/T₂ )

V/R = (1.75 x 10⁻³ m³)/(8.314 (N-m)/(mol-K) = 2.1049 x 10⁻⁴ (mol-m²-K)/N

p₁/T₁ = (225 x 10³)/298 = 755.0336 N/(m²-K)

p₂/T₂ = (185 x 10³)/283 = 653.7102 N/(m²-K)

Therefore,

Δn = (2.1049 x 10⁻⁴ (mol-m²-K)/N)*(755.0336 - 653.7102 N/(m²-K))

    = 0.0213 mol

Hence, The number of moles of gas lost is 0.0213 mol.

The principle quantum number (n) describes what
slega [8]

Answer:

the energy of an electron and the most probable distance of the electron from the nucleus.

Explanation:

The principal quantum number, n, describes the energy of an electron and the most probable distance of the electron from the nucleus. In other words, it refers to the size of the orbital and the energy level an electron is placed in. The number of subshells, or l, describes the shape of the orbital.

Glad I could help!!
