Five gases combined in a gas cylinder have the following partial pressures: 3.00 atm (N2), 1.80 atm (O2), 0.29 atm (Ar), 0.18 at
lisov135 [29]

This can be solved using Dalton's Law of Partial pressures. This law states that the total pressure exerted by a gas mixture is equal to the sum of the partial pressure of each gas in the mixture as if it exist alone in a container. In order to solve, we need the partial pressures of the gases given. Calculations are as follows:<span>


<span>P = 3.00 atm + 1.80 atm + 0.29 atm + 0.18 atm + 0.10 atm</span></span>

<span><span>P = 5.37 atm</span></span>

Match each statement with a layer of the atmosphere. There will be two statements for each layer.
LuckyWell [14K]

<u>The troposphere: </u>

H. This layer can have thunderstorms or clear, sunny skies.

A. The biosphere interacts most with this layer. 

<u>The stratosphere:</u>

B. It is the second layer from Earth's surface. 

G. Winds are strong and steady in this layer. 

<u>The mesosphere:</u>

E. It is heated by the ozone layer beneath it. 

D. This layer is where most meteor showers occur. 

<u>The thermosphere :</u>

F. It contains the ionosphere and exosphere. 

C. It contains layers of single, unmixed gas. 

<u>Explanation:</u>

Depending on the Earth's  temperature the atmosphere can be separated into layers. The troposphere, the stratosphere, the mesosphere and the thermosphere are those layers. The lowest layer is named as Troposphere (0-10 km from the Earth outer surface), it comprises about 75% of the atmosphere's total air and nearly most the water vapor.

Stratosphere (10-30) includes much of the surface ozone. The change in height temperature arises as this ozone absorbs ultraviolet (UV) radiation from the sun. The temperature in Mesosphere (30-50 Km) declines again with height, hitting a minimum of about -90 ° C at the "mesopause." Above this thermosphere (50-400 Km) is settled which is a area where temperatures rise with height once again. The penetration of intense  UV and X-ray radiation from the sun induces this temperature rise.

?Al + ?H2SO4 → ?Al2(SO4)3 +3H2
AfilCa [17]

The answer is: 27 grams of aluminium.

Balanced chemical reaction: 2Al + 3H₂SO₄ → Al₂(SO₄)₃ + 3H₂.

n(H₂) = 1.5 mol; amount of hydrogen.

Form chemical reaction: n(Al) : n(H₂) = 2 : 3.

n(Al) = 2 · 1.5 mol ÷ 3.

n(Al) = 1.0 mol; amount of aluminium.

m(Al) = n(Al) · M(Al).

m(Al) = 1 mol · 27 g/mol.

m(Al) = 27 g; mass of aluminium.

How does the comic strip define a polar molecule
zmey [24]

The answer is: A molecule with a difference in electrical charge between two ends.

Electronegativity (χ) is a property that describes the tendency of an atom to attract a shared pair of electrons.

Atoms with higher electronegativity attracts more electrons towards it, electrons are closer to that atom.

For example fluorine has electronegativity approximately χ = 4 and oxygen χ = 3,5, fluorine attracts electron and he has negative charge and oxygen has positive charge.
