Answer:

Gas is easier to compress than solid

Explanation:

Gases are compressible because most of the volume of a gas is composed of the large amounts of empty space between the gas particles.

It is gas because they vibrate and move freely at high speed.

Correct me if I’m wrong

If you have 3 moles of CH4 , how many moles of CO2 are produced?
k0ka [10]

Answer:

Since you are producing 3.6 mol CO2, you can calculate the starting moles of CH4 with the simple mole-to-mole ratio: 1 mol CH4 / 1 mol CO2 as a conversion factor. Taking 3.6 mol CO2 x 1 mol CH4 / 1 mol CO2 = 3.6 mol CH4 (after canceling out the moles of CO2 on the top and bottom of the calculation)

What is the ratio of lactic acid (Ka = 1.37x10-4) to lactate in a solution with pH =4.49?
Natasha2012 [34]
When Ka =1.37 x 10^-4 

∴Pka = - ㏒Ka

          = -㏒ 1.37 x 10^-4 
          
           = 3.86

According to H- H equation: 

when PH = PKA + ㏒[conjugate base / weak acid]

when the lactate is the conjugate base and lactic acid is the weak acid 

∴ PH = Pka +㏒[lactate] / [lactic acid]

so, by substitution:


4.49 = 3.86 + ㏒[lactate]/[lactic acid]

∴[lactate]/[lactic acid] = 4.3

∴ [lactic acid] / [lactate] = 1/4.3 
            
                                        = 0.23

Does a laboratory balance measure mass or weight
kolezko [41]
A balance in a lab measures the weight of a substance or object.
Weight is the mass of the body x the gravitation pull on the mass of the object.

So the mass of the object can be found by dividing the weight by gravitational constant.

The gravitational constant on earth is 1. so if a balance says that a substance weighs 300g then its mass is also 300g on earth because 300/1 = 300.

Hope that helps :)

A mixture of water and acetone at 756 mm boils at 70.0°C. The vapor pressure of acetone is
Tatiana [17]

Given :

A mixture of water and acetone at 756 mm boils at 70.0°C.

The vapor pressure of acetone is  1.54 atm at 70.0°C, while the vapor pressure of water is 0.312 atm at the same temperature.

To Find :

The percentage composition of the mixture.

Solution :

By Raoult's law :

P=x_{acetone}P^o_{acetone}+x_{water}P^o_{water}\\\\x_{acetone}1.58+x_{water}0.312=\dfrac{756}{760}=0.995\ atm\\\\1.58x_a+0.312x_w=0.995......( 1 )

Also , x_a+x_b=1      ......( 2 )

Solving equation 1 and 2 , we get :

x_a=0.54\ and \ x_w=0.46 .

Mass of acetone ,

m_a=x_a\times MM_a\\\\m_a=0.54\times 58\\\\m_a=31.32\ g

Mass of water ,

m_w=x_w\times MM_w\\\\m_w=0.46\times 18\\\\m_a=8.28\ g

\%water =\dfrac{8.28}{8.28+31.32}\times 100\\\\\%water =20.9\%\\\\\%acetone =79.1\%

Hence , this is the required solution.
