Pachacha [2.7K]

Answer:

See below.

Step-by-step explanation:

The author is probably reminding us that knowing the origins of words helps us to remember what they mean.

If "verde" means "green", the "verd" in "verdigris" probably means that verdigris is green.

However, the "verd" in verdigris domes from other languages.

It was originally Latin "viride aeris" (green brass).

In old French it became "verte de Grèce" (green of Greece). The modern French spelling is "vert-de-gris" (green of grey).

The English word "verdigris" comes from the French words.

What is the volume in liters of 5.25 moles of He gas?​
serious [3.7K]

Answer:

\boxed {\boxed {\sf 117.6 \ L \ He}}

Explanation:

Regardless of the type of gas, 1 mole at standard temperature and pressure (STP) occupies a volume of 22.4 liters. In this case the gas is helium (He).

We can set up a ratio.

\frac { 22.4 \ L \ He}{ 1 \ mol \ He}

Multiply by the given number of moles.

5.25 \ mol \ He *\frac { 22.4 \ L \ He}{ 1 \ mol \ He}

The moles of helium will cancel.

5.25 *\frac { 22.4 \ L \ He}{ 1 }

5.25 * { 22.4 \ L \ He}

Multiply.

117.6 \ L \ He

5.25 moles of helium gas at STP is 117.6 liters of helium.
