Answer:

Why is the unit of force called a derived unit? That's because the Newton is defined in terms of other units which are more fundamental. One Newton is the force required to accelerate a mass of one kilogramme at the rate of one metre per second squared.

Which scenario describes an interaction between two of Earth's spheres?
quester [9]

The correct answer is D. Bears dig big holes in the ground to protect their young

Explanation:

The Earth spheres include the biosphere (life in the Earth), the hydrosphere (water bodies), the geosphere (rocks and other elements that compose land and soil), and the atmosphere (gases that compose the air). In this context, there is an interaction between two spheres: the biosphere and the geosphere, when a bear digs holes in the ground because a living organism that is part of the biosphere is modifying the structure and shape of superficial soil, which is part of the geosphere.

A vessel of volume 22.4 dm3 contains 20 mol h2 and 1 mol n2 ad 273.15 k initially. All of the nitrogen reacted with sufficient h
NikAS [45]

Nitrogen combine with hydrogen to produce ammonia \text{NH}_3 at a 1:3:2 ratio:

\text{N}_2 \; (g) + 3 \;  \text{H}_2 \; (g) \leftrightharpoons 2\; \text{NH}_3 \; (g)

Assuming that the reaction has indeed proceeded to completion- with all nitrogen used up as the question has indicated. 3 \; \text{mol} of hydrogen gas would have been consumed while 2 \; \text{mol} of ammonia would have been produced. The final mixture would therefore contain

  • 17 \; \text{mol} of \text{H}_2 \; (g) and
  • 2 \; \text{mol} of \text{NH}_3 \; (g)

Apply the ideal gas law to find the total pressure inside the container and the respective partial pressure of hydrogen and ammonia:

  • \begin{array}{lll} P(\text{container}) &= & n \cdot R \cdot T / V \\ & = & (17 + 2) \; \text{mol} \times 8.314 \; \text{L} \cdot \text{kPa} \cdot \text{mol}^{-1} \cdot \text{K}^{-1} \\ & &\times 273.15 \; \text{K} / (22.4 \; \text{L}) \\ &=&  1.926 \times 10^{3} \; \text{kPa} \end{array}
  • \begin{array}{lll} P(\text{H}_2) &= & n \cdot R \cdot T / V \\ & = & (17) \; \text{mol} \times 8.314 \; \text{L} \cdot \text{kPa} \cdot \text{mol}^{-1} \cdot \text{K}^{-1} \\ & &\times 273.15 \; \text{K} / (22.4 \; \text{L}) \\ &=&  1.723 \times 10^{3} \; \text{kPa} \end{array}
  • \begin{array}{lll} P(\text{NH}_3) &= & n \cdot R \cdot T / V \\ & = & (2) \; \text{mol} \times 8.314 \; \text{L} \cdot \text{kPa} \cdot \text{mol}^{-1} \cdot \text{K}^{-1} \\ & &\times 273.15 \; \text{K} / (22.4 \; \text{L}) \\ &=&  2.037 \times 10^{2} \; \text{kPa} \end{array}
