In thermodynamics, a system is region or part of space which is being studied and observed while the surrounding is the region or space around the system which interacts with the system.

Here in the experiment ,system which is observed is reaction or changes when citric acid and sodium bicarbonate are mixed together. And the mixing is carried out in the calorimeter which serves as a surrounding around the system.

The reason behind the using the calorimeter is measure the energy change occurring during the reaction.

As a scuba diver descends under water, the pressure increases. At a total air pressure of 2.71 atm and a temperature of 25.0 C,

Semenov [28]

Answer:

$1.32\times 10^{-3} mol/L$ is the solubility of nitrogen gas in a diver's blood.

Explanation:

Henry's law states that the amount of gas dissolved or molar solubility of gas is directly proportional to the partial pressure of the liquid.

To calculate the molar solubility, we use the equation given by Henry's law, which is:

$C_{N_2}=K_H\times p_{liquid}$

where,

$K_H$ = Henry's constant = $6.26 \times 10^{-4}mol/L.atm$

$p_{N_2}$ = partial pressure of nitrogen

$p_{N_2}= P\times \chi_{N_2}$ (Raoult's law)

$=2.71 atm\times 0.78=2.1138 atm$

$C_{N_2}=6.26 \times 10^{-4}mol/L.atm\times 2.1138 atm$

$C_{N_2}=1.32\times 10^{-3} mol/L$

$1.32\times 10^{-3} mol/L$ is the solubility of nitrogen gas in a diver's blood.

What happens to the volume of a gas in a closed container if the temperature increases, but the pressure remains the same? Why?

labwork [276]

Answer:

Volume will goes to increase.

Explanation:

The given problem will be solve through the Charles Law.

According to this law, The volume of given amount of a gas is directly proportional to its temperature at constant number of moles and pressure.

Mathematical expression:

V₁/T₁ = V₂/T₂

V₁ = Initial volume

T₁ = Initial temperature

V₂ = Final volume

T₂ = Final temperature

So when the temperature goes to increase the volume of gas also increase. Higher temperature increase the kinetic energy and molecules move randomly every where in given space so volume increase.

Now we will put the suppose values in formula.

V₁/T₁ = V₂/T₂

V₂ = V₁T₂/T₁

V₂ = 4.5 L × 348 K / 298 k

V₂ = 1566 L.K / 298 K

V₂ = 5.3 L

Hence prove that volume increase by increasing the temperature.

For what type of compound are we unable to write a molecular formula?

Anna007 [38]

Answer:

Ionic compounds

Explanation:

Molecular formula consists of chemical symbols for constituent elements followed by the numeric subscripts describing number of the atoms of each element present in one molecule of the compound.

On the other hand, ionic compounds do not exist in the form of molecules. They are in the form of crystal lattice in the solid state which contains many ions each of cation and anion.

<u>Thus, a ionic compounds are unable to write a molecular formula. Empirical formulas to used to represent them.</u>
