If the temperature of an area drops 8 degrees from one day the next the climate has changed.

the pressure in a sealed plastic container is 108 kPa at 41 degrees Celsius. What is the pressure when the temperature drops to

Katarina [22]

<u>Answer:</u> The new pressure will be 101.46 kPa.

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the new pressure, we use the equation given by Gay-Lussac Law. This law states that pressure is directly proportional to the temperature of the gas at constant volume.

The equation given by this law is:

$\frac{P_1}{T_1}=\frac{P_2}{T_2}$

where,

$P_1\text{ and }T_1$ are initial pressure and temperature.

$P_2\text{ and }T_2$ are final pressure and temperature.

We are given:

By using conversion factor: $T(K)=T(^oC)+273$

$P_1=108kPa\\T_1=41^oC=314K\\P_2=?kPa\\T_2=22^oC=295K$

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$\frac{108kPa}{314K}=\frac{P_2}{295K}\\\\P_2=101.46kPa$

Hence, the new pressure will be 101.46 kPa.

How many atoms are there in each of the following substances?

juin [17]

To know the number of atoms, it will be necessary to use the formula of avogadro. We calculate the number of moles then we can calculate the number of avogadro.

The molar mass of:

Phosphorus = 31g / mol

Mercury = 200 g / mol

Bismuth = 209 g / mol

Strontium = 87 g / mol.

The number of avogadro (N) is 6.023 10 ^ 23

n = m (mass) / M (molar mass)

number of atoms = n. N = m / M . N

number of phosphorus atoms = 5.14/31 . 6.023 10^23 = 9.98 10 ^ 22 atoms

Number of atoms of mercury = 2.16/200 . 6.023 10^23 = 6.5 10 ^ 21 atoms

Number of bismuth atoms = 1.8/209 . 6.023 10^23 = 5.18 10 ^ 21 atoms

Number of strontium atoms = 8.8 x 10-2 /87 . 6.023 10^23 = 6.09 10 ^ 20 atoms
