What is the approximate time of death if the body temperature was 15.6°C?

Chemistry

1 answer:

WARRIOR [948]2 years ago

6 0

Answer:

This stiffening process, called Rigor Mortis, has a roughly known time of occurrence and can therefore be used to estimate time of death. In general: If the body feels warm and no rigor is present, death occurred under 3 hours before. If the body feels warm and stiff, death occurred 3-8 hours earlier.

What are the gas laws? (Include Boyle's law, charles's law, gay lussac's law, an avogadro's law) Could someone please summarize

Rina8888 [55]

Answer:

Boyle's Law: When the pressure of a gas increases, the volume of the gas will decrease as long as the temperature and amount of gas are constant.

So basically pressure is inversely proportional to Volume, when one increases, the other decreases, vice versa.

Equation: $P_{1} V_{1} = P_{2} V_{2}$

Charles Law: When the temperature of a gas increases, the volume of a gas will also increase if the pressure and amount of gas are constant.

So basically Temperature and volume are directly proportional.

Equation: $\frac{V_{1}}{T_{1}} = \frac{V_{2} }{T_{2} }$

Gay Lussac's Law: When the temperature of a gas increases, the pressure of a gas also increases when volume and the amount of gas remain constant.

Basically, Temperature and Pressure are directly proportional.

Equation: $\frac{P_{1}}{T_{1}} = \frac{P_{2} }{T_{2} }$

Avogadro's Law: The most intuitive gas law. When you increase the amount of gas, the volume will also increase.

Meaning the moles (amount of gas) is directly proportional to volume.

Equation: $\frac{V_{1} }{n_{1} } = \frac{V_{2} }{n_{2} }$ (n stands for moles)

There is a combined gas law and ideal gas law but those are just the gas laws mentioned above but combined together. These should be everything.

Which has a higher frequency, a neutron or electron? Why?

DanielleElmas [232]

The electron, due to the way an electron orbits the nucleus of an atom.

According to Quantum Mechanics, electrons do not really orbit the nucleus of an atom. In fact, the most tightly bound state, the 1s orbital, has no angular momentum at all. This would be the state with the most "kinetic energy" and yet there is no "orbital" motion at all in this state.

What is the name of the compound in cabbage juice that causes the color to change in an acid or base?

baherus [9]

Red cabbage contains a water-soluble pigment called anthocyanin<span> that changes color when it is mixed with an acid or a base. The pigment turns red in acidic environments with a pH less than 7 and the pigment turns bluish-green in alkaline (basic) environments with a pH greater than 7.</span>
