Answer:

Kinetic Molecular Theory states that gas particles are in constant motion and exhibit perfectly elastic collisions. Kinetic Molecular Theory can be used to explain both Charles' and Boyle's Laws. The average kinetic energy of a collection of gas particles is directly proportional to absolute temperature only.

Give the nuclear symbol for the isotope of phosphorus for which a=31? enter the nuclear symbol for the isotope (e.g., 42he).

Bogdan [553]

A = number of mass = 31 => number of protons + number of neutrons = 31

Phosphours, Z = atomic number = 15 = number of protons

Symbol of the element phosphorus = P

=> The symbol of the isotope is the symbol of the element, P, with the number of mass, 31, to the left, as a superscript, and the atomic number, 15, to the left, as a suscript.

What are the three hypotheses that were proposed to explain the seismic activity of Pinatubo? What process generates sulfur diox

ASHA 777 [7]

Answer:

Mt. Pinatubo is one of the contrasting volcanoes that erupted violently in the year 1991, being the second strongest volcanic eruption that took place on earth in this entire century.

The 3 hypothesis that was proposed in order to describe the seismic activity of Pinatubo includes-

The magma rising upward to the surface from the interior of the earth, erupting through the crater of the volcano.

The eruption led to the releasing of a large number of volcanic gases into the atmosphere.

The earthquakes are produced due to the continuous tectonic activities that are primarily caused when the earth's crust moves over the layer of viscous asthenosphere.

A large number of volcanic gases are released such as sulfur dioxide (SO₂), methane (CH₄), Hydrogen sulfide (H₂O), Carbon monoxide (CO), and other gases, due to the formation of convection currents and rising up of magma from the mantle, creating volcanic eruptions at the surface

A compound is analyzed and found to contain 22.10%Al, 25.40%P, and 52.50%O. What is the empirical formula of the compound?

Sergio039 [100]

We will determine the moles of each element first

moles = mass / atomic mass

Atomic weight of Al : 27 g/ mol

Atomic weight of P : 3 1g /mol

Atomic weight of O : 16 g /mol

Let the total mass of compound is 100g

The mass of each element will be

Al = 22.10 g

P = 25.40 g

O = 52.50 g

Moles of Al = mass / atomic mass = 22.10 / 27 = 0.819

Moles of P = mass / atomic mass = 25.40/ 31 = 0.819

Moles of O = mass / atomic mass = 52.50/ 16 = 3.28

Now we will divide the moles of each element with the lowest moles obtained to obtain a whole number ratio of moles of each element present

moles of Al = 0.819 / 0.819 = 1

moles of P = 0.819 / 0.819 = 1

moles of O = 3.28 / 0.819 = 4

So the empirical formula will be : AlPO4
