Answer:

B. The air pressure would increase 2X

Explanation:

Pressure = density × acceleration due to gravity × height

p = ρ × g × h

Pressure is force per unit area

p = F/a

Density is mass per unit volume

Pressure is directly proportional to density hence, any change in the density of a body directly affects the change in pressure of the body and vice versa.

Which of the following statements is false? Molecules with the formulas CH3CH2COOH and C3H6O2 could be structural isomers. Molec
sladkih [1.3K]

Answer:

To be enantiomers, a molecule must have at least three different atoms or groups connected to a central carbon.

Explanation:

To be structural isomers, the molecules must have the same formula and different structure, it means, the same number of each element. CH3CH2COOH and C3H6O2 have 3C, 6H, and 2O, so they can be structural isomers.

Cis-trans isomers occur in molecules with a double bond between carbons, and each carbon has to have 2 different atoms or groups connected to it.

Enantiomers are optic isomers, and to occur, the molecule has to have a chiral carbon (an asymmetric carbon), which is a central carbon connected to four different atoms or groups. So the third affirmative is false because it says that is necessary only three different atoms or groups connected to a central carbon.

A student prepares a 100.0 mL solution using 44.7 grams of potassium nitrite. They then take 11.9 mL of this solution and dilute
Naddik [55]

Answer:

0.52 g of KNO₃ are contained in 19.7 mL of diluted solution.

Explanation:

We can work on this problem in Molarity cause it is more easy.

Molarity (mol/L) → moles of solute in 1L of solution.

100 mL of solution = 0.1 L

We determine moles of solute: 44.7 g . 1mol /101.1 g = 0.442 mol of KNO₃

Our main solution is 0.442 mol /0.1L = 4.42 M

We dilute: 4.42 M . (11.9mL / 200mL) = 0.263 M

That's concentration for the diluted solution.

M can be also read as mmol/mmL, so let's find out the mmoles

0.263 M . 19.7mL = 5.18 mmol

We convert the mmol to mg → 5.18 mmol . 101.1 mg / mmol = 523.7 mg

Let's convert mg to g → 523.7 mg . 1 g / 1000 mg = 0.52 g

25 L of a gas is collected at 115 kPa. If the pressure increases to 300 kPa, what is the new volume?
Lina20 [59]

Answer:

V2 = 9.58 Litres.

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Initial volume = 25 L

Initial pressure = 115 kPa

Final pressure = 300 kPa

To find the new volume V2, we would use Boyles' law.

Boyles states that when the temperature of an ideal gas is kept constant, the pressure of the gas is inversely proportional to the volume occupied by the gas.

Mathematically, Boyles law is given by;

PV = K

P_{1}V_{1} = P_{2}V_{2}

Substituting into the equation, we have;

115 * 25 = 300*V_{2}

2875 = 300*V_{2}

V_{2} = \frac {2875}{300}

V_{2} = 9.58

V2 = 9.58 L

Therefore, the new volume is 9.58 litres.

True or False: A nail with a wire wrapped around it is<br> an electromagnet.
Annette [7]

Answer:Search ResultsBy simply wrapping wire that has an electrical current running through it around a nail, you can make an electromagnet. When the electric current moves through a wire, it makes a magnetic field. ... You can make a temporary magnet by stroking apiece of iron or steel (such as a needle) along with a permanent magnet.
