Why does the high pressure air being released into the ballast tanks of a submarine cause it to rise quickly?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Diano4ka-milaya [45]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Initially, the ballast tanks are filled with water. The weight of the submarine is equal to the upthrust of the water at the position of the submarine under water. When high pressure air is released into the ballast tanks displacing the water, the weight of the submarine becomes less than  the upthrust of the water thus the net force is is upwards and it forces the sub to resurface. This is according to the Archimedes principle which states that a a body partially or wholly immersed in water displaces its own weight of the fluid in which it is immersed.

1. identify whether following have ionic or covalent bonding. Give your reasons: Oxygen molecule, water, calcium oxide, hydrogen
Romashka [77]
First you need to know the different between an ionic and covalent bond. An ionic bond is the pairing of a metal and non-metal element. A covalent bond is the pairing of 2 nonmetals.

Metals are the elements at the left of the periodic table while non-metals are the elements at the right of the periodic table.

You should also know the diatomic (di means 2) molecules also known as the fab 7. These molecules will always form covalent bonds. These molecules are hydrogen, nitrogen, oxygen, fluorine, chlorine, bromine, and iodine. With the subscripts, these molecules would be written as H ₂, N ₂, O ₂, F ₂, Cl ₂, Br ₂, and I ₂.

CS2 (s) + 3 O2 (g) → CO2 (g) + 2 SO2 (g)
Natasha_Volkova [10]

Answer:

2.067 L ≅ 2.07 L.

Explanation:

  • The balanced equation for the mentioned reaction is:

<em>CS₂(g) + 3O₂(g) → CO₂(g) + 2SO₂(g),</em>

It is clear that 1.0 mole of CS₂ react with 3.0 mole of O₂ to produce 1.0 mole of CO₂ and 2.0 moles of SO₂.

  • At STP, 3.6 L of H₂ reacts with (?? L) of oxygen gas:

It is known that at STP: every 1.0 mol of any gas occupies 22.4 L.

<u><em>using cross multiplication:</em></u>

1.0 mol of O₂ represents → 22.4 L.

??? mol of O₂ represents → 3.1 L.

∴ 3.1 L of O₂ represents = (1.0 mol)(3.1 L)/(22.4 L) = 0.1384 mol.

  • To find the no. of moles of SO₂ produced from 3.1 liters (0.1384 mol) of hydrogen:

<u><em>Using cross multiplication:</em></u>

3.0 mol of O₂ produce → 2.0 mol of SO₂, from stichiometry.

0.1384 mol of O₂ produce → ??? mol of SO₂.

∴ The no. of moles of SO₂ = (2.0 mol)(0.1384 mol)/(3.0 mol) = 0.09227 mol.

  • Again, using cross multiplication:

1.0 mol of SO₂ represents → 22.4 L, at STP.

0.09227 mol of SO₂ represents → ??? L.

∴ The no. of liters of SO₂ will be produced = (0.09227 mol)(22.4 L)/(1.0 mol) = 2.067 L ≅ 2.07 L.
