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

Chemistry

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.

How does 2 Na (s) + Cl2 (g) = NaCl (s) represent the coefficient in the chemical equation
Elenna [48]

Answer:

The 2 would be placed in front of the reactant Na and in front of the product NaCl

2Na + Cl2 = 2NaCl

Explanation:

This is because the ratio of elements needs to be balanced on both sides.

On the reactants side, there are 2 Na molecules and 2 Cl molecules

On the products side, there are 2 Na molecules and 2 Cl molecules

So, now the equation is balanced
