Answer:

when you have a fever your body is trying to fight off a virus or some other kind of bad Bacteria

Explanation:

I think this because everyone has at least had a fever when they were sick and when you are sick you are likely to have a fever because your body is fighting off a bad bacteria

Be sure to answer all parts. Write the equations representing the following processes. In each case, be sure to indicate the phy

Answer:

1. $S^{-}(g)+e^{-} \rightarrow S^{2-}(g)$

2. $Ti^{2+}(g) \rightarrow Ti^{3+}(g) \,\, IE = 2652.5\,kJ.mol^{-1}$

3.The electron affinity of $Mg^{2+}$ is zero.

4. $O^{2-}(g) \rightarrow O^{-}(g)+e^{-}$

Explanation:

<u>Electron affinity:</u>

It is defined as the amount of energy change when an electron is added to atom in the gaseous phase.

The electron affinity of $S^{-}$ is as follows.

$S^{-}(g)+e^{-} \rightarrow S^{2-}(g)$

<u>Ionization energy</u>:

Amount of energy required to removal of an electron from an isolated gaseous atom.

The third ionization energy of Titanium is as follows.

$Ti^{2+}(g) \rightarrow Ti^{3+}(g) \,\, IE = 2652.5\,kJ.mol^{-1}$

The electronic configuration of Mg: $1s^{2}2s^{2}2p^{6}3s^{2}$

By the removal of two electrons from a magnesium element we get $Mg^{2+}$ ion.

$Mg^{2+}$ has inert gas configuration i.e, $1s^{2}2s^{2}2p^{6}$

Hence, it does not require more electrons to get stability.

Therefore,the electron affinity of $Mg^{2+}$ is zero.

The ionization energy of $O^{2-}$ is follows.

$O^{2-}(g) \rightarrow O^{-}(g)+e^{-}$

a solution with a transmittance of 0.44 is analyzed in a spectrophotometer with 6% stray light. calculate the absorbance reporte

IgorLugansk [536]

The absorbance reported by the defective instrument was 0.3933.

Absorbance A = - log₁₀ T

Tm = transmittance measured by spectrophotometer

Tm = 0.44

Absorbance reported in this equipment = -log₁₀ (0.44) = 0.35654

True absorbance can be calculated by true transmittance, Tm = T+S(α-T)

S = fraction of stray light = 6%= 6/100 = 0.06

α= 1, ideal case

T = true transmittance of the sample

Tm = T+S(α-T)

now, T= Tm-S/ 1-S = 0.44-0.06/ 1-0.06 = 0.404233

therefore, actual reading measured is A = -log₁₀ T = -log₁₀ (0.404233)

i.e; 0.3933

When heated to 150 ºC, CuSO4.5 H2O loses its water of hydration as gaseous H2O. A 2.50 g sample of the compound is placed in a s

Katyanochek1 [597]

Answer:

Water pressure 0.5 atm

Total Pressure= 2.27 atm

Explanation:

To answer this problem, one has to realize that there are two processes that increase the temperature of the sealed vessel.

First, the dry air in the sealed vessel will be heated which will cause its pressure to increase and it can be determined by the equation:

P₁ x T₂ = P₂ x T₁ ∴ P₂ = P₁ x T₂ / T₁

For the second process, we have an amount of n moles of water which will be released when the copper sulfate is heated. In this case, to determine the value of the the water gas we will use the gas law:

PV = nRT ∴ P = nRT/V

n will we calculated from the quantity of sample.

2.50 g CuSo₄ 5H₂O x 1 mol/ 249.69 g = 0.01 mol CuSo₄ 5H₂O

the amount water of hydration is

= 0.01 mol CuSo₄ 5H₂O * 5 mol H₂O / 1 mol CuSo₄ 5H₂O

= 0.05 mo H₂O

pressure of dry air at the final temperature,

P₂ = 1 atm x 500 K/ 300 K = 1.67 atm

Pressure of water :

P (H₂O) 0.05 mol x 0.08206 Latm/kmol x 500 K/ 4 L = 0.5 atm

∴ Total Pressure = 1.67 atm

H2O Pressure = 0.5 atm
