What is the final pressure of a system (atm) that has the volume increased from 0.75 l to 1.1 l with an initial pressure of 1.25
lana66690 [7]
Boyle's law states that pressure is inversely proportional to volume of gas at constant temperature 
PV = k
where P - pressure , V - volume and k - constant 
P1V1 = P2V2
where parameters for the first instance are on the left side and parameters for the second instance are on the right side of the equation 
substituting these values in the equation 
1.25 atm x 0.75 L = P x 1.1 L
P = 0.85 atm 
final pressure is B) 0.85 atm

If the average rate of sediment accumulation is 3 cm/1000years, how long would be required for sediments to completely bury seam
stira [4]

Answer:

500,050000 years

Explanation:

Given that :

Rate of Accumulation = 3cm/ 1000 years

Height of seamounts = 1.5km

Representing height of seamounts in cm;

(1.5 *1000 * 100) = 1500150 cm

Time taken = height / rate

Time taken = (1500150 cm / 3cm) * 1000

Time taken = 500,050000 years

<u>answer</u> 1<u> </u><u>:</u>

Law of conservation of momentum states that

For two or more bodies in an isolated system acting upon each other, their total momentum remains constant unless an external force is applied. Therefore, momentum can neither be created nor destroyed.

<u>answer</u><u> </u><u>2</u><u>:</u><u> </u>

When a substance is provided energy<u> </u>in the form of heat, it's temperature increases. The extent of temperature increase is determined by the heat capacity of the substance. The larger the heat capacity of a substance, the more energy is required to raise its temperature.

When a substance undergoes a FIRST ORDER phase change, its temperature remains constant as long as the phase change remains incomplete. When ice at -10 degrees C is heated, its temperature rises until it reaches 0 degrees C. At that temperature, it starts melting and solid water is converted to liquid water. During this time, all the heat energy provided to the system is USED UP in the process of converting solid to the liquid. Only when all the solid is converted, is the heat used to raise the temperature of the liquid.

This is what results in the flat part of the freezing/melting of condensation/boiling curve. In this flat region, the heat capacity of the substance is infinite. This is the famous "divergence" of the heat capacity during a first order phase transition.

There are certain phase transitions where the heat capacity does not become infinitely large, such as the process of a non-magnetic substance becoming a magnetic substance (when cooled below the so-called Curie temperature).

How many grams of aluminum chloride are produced when 5.96 grams of aluminum are reacted with excess chlorine gas? Start with a
Vadim26 [7]

Answer:

29.47 g of AlCl₃.

Explanation:

We'll begin by writing the balanced equation for the reaction. This is illustrated below:

2Al + 3Cl₂ —> 2AlCl₃

Next, we shall determine the mass of Al that reacted and the mass of AlCl₃ produced from the balanced equation. This can be obtained as follow:

Molar mass of Al = 27 g/mol

Mass of Al from the balanced equation = 2 × 27 = 54 g

Molar mass of AlCl₃ = 27 + (35.5× 3)

= 27 + 106.5

= 133.5 g/mol

Mass of AlCl₃ from the balanced equation = 2 × 133.5 = 267 g

SUMMARY:

From the balanced equation above,

54 g of Al reacted to produce 267 g of AlCl₃.

Finally, we shall determine the mass of AlCl₃ produced by the reaction of 5.96 g of Al. This can be obtained as follow:

From the balanced equation above,

54 g of Al reacted to produce 267 g of AlCl₃.

Therefore, 5.96 g of Al will react to produce = (5.96 × 267)/54 = 29.47 g of AlCl₃.

Thus, 29.47 g of AlCl₃ were obtained from the reaction.

The combustion of 135 mg of a hydrocarbon produces 440 mg of CO2 and 135 mg H2O. The molar mass of the hydrocarbon is 270 g/mol.
NeX [460]

Answer:

Molecular formula = C20H30

Explanation:

NB 440mg = 0.44g, 135mg= 0.135g

From the question, moles of CO2= 0.44/44= 0.01mol

Since 1 mol of CO2 contains 1mol of C, it implies mol of C = 0.01

Also from the question, moles of H2O = 0.135/18= 0.0075mole

Since 1 mol of H2O contains 2mol of H, it implies mol of H = 0.0075×2= 0.015 mol of H

To get the empirical formula, divide by smallest number of mole

Mol of C = 0.01/0.01=1

Mol of H = 0.015/0.01= 1.5

Multiply both by 2 to obtain a whole number

Mol of C =1×2 = 2

Mol of H= 1.5×2 = 3

Empirical formula= C2H3

[C2H3] not = 270

[ (2×12) + 3]n = 270

27n = 270

n=10

Molecular formula= [C2H3]10= C20H30
