Particle size directly affects which of the following spil properties?

Chemistry
1 answer:
77julia77 [94]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

The size of soil particles is important. The amount of open space between the particles influences how easily water moves through a soil and how much water the soil will hold. Too much clay, in proportion to silt and sand, causes a soil to take in water very slowly. Such a soil gives up its water to plants slowly.

How many moles of gas would occupy 22.4 L at 273K in one arm?
andrew-mc [135]

Answer:

1 mol

Explanation:

Using the general gas law equation as follows:

PV = nRT

Where;

P = pressure (atm)

V = volume (L)

n = number of moles (mol)

R = gas law constant (0.0821 Latm/molK)

T = temperature (K)

According to the provided information in the question;

V = 22.4L

T = 273K

P = 1 atm

R = 0.0821 Latm/molK

n = ?

Using PV = nRT

n = PV/RT

n = (1 × 22.4) ÷ (0.0821 × 273)

n = 22.4 ÷ 22.4

n = 1mol

ΔG o for the reaction H2(g) + I2(g) ⇌ 2HI(g) is 2.60 kJ/mol at 25°C. Calculate ΔG o , and predict the direction in which the rea
kondaur [170]

Answer:

The reaction is not spontaneous in the forward direction, but in the reverse direction.

Explanation:

<u>Step 1: </u>Data given

H2(g) + I2(g) ⇌ 2HI(g)     ΔG° = 2.60 kJ/mol

Temperature = 25°C = 25+273 = 298 Kelvin

The initial pressures are:

pH2 = 3.10 atm

pI2 = 1.5 atm

pHI 1.75 atm

<u>Step 2</u>: Calculate ΔG

ΔG = ΔG° + RTln Q  

with ΔG° = 2.60 kJ/mol

with R = 8.3145 J/K*mol

with T = 298 Kelvin

Q = the reaction quotient → has the same expression as equilibrium constant → in this case Kp = [p(HI)]²/ [p(H2)] [p(I2)]

with pH2 = 3.10 atm

pI2 = 1.5 atm

pHI 1.75 atm

Q = (3.10²)/(1.5*1.75)

Q = 3.661

ΔG = ΔG° + RTln Q  

ΔG = 2600 J/mol + 8.3145 J/K*mol * 298 K * ln(3.661)  

ΔG =5815.43 J/mol = 5.815 kJ/mol

To be spontaneous, ΔG should be <0.

ΔG >>0 so the reaction is not spontaneous in the forward direction, but in the reverse direction.

Which of these best describes heat transfer through conduction?
kozerog [31]

I'd go for D here. It also fits in with the idea of thermal expansion - as something is heated up, molecules vibrate and maybe collide. they vibrate with bigger amplitudes, so taking up more space, so expanding. maybe

How would changing the proportions of substance in an alloy change its properties?
sammy [17]
An alloy is a mixture of two or more metals which is produced with a specific proportion between metals. So, if the proportion is changed the physical characteristic would be changed as well. For example, brass musical instruments are made of brass which is a mixture (an alloy) of zinc and copper in a specific proportion. If you change a proportion, you will change the physical characteristic of brass musical instruments, and a sound they produce will be different.
