Answer:

it's ph decreases.. meaning those with a small ph value are more acidic.forinstance one with a ph of 1 is more acidic than the one with a ph of 3.

I hope this helps

How do we differentiate chemical change from physical change

bija089 [108]

Answer:

Chemical change :has change in mass, heat is needed, new element is formed, hard to reverse.......

Physicalchange:does not have change in mass, heat is not necessary, no new element is formed, easy to reverse

What mass of natural gas (ch4) must you burn to emit 272 kj of heat?

balandron [24]

CH4 + 2 O2 ---> CO2 + 2 H2O Q = 891,6 kJ / mol CH4

1 mol CH4 = 16 g

16 g ---- 891,6 kJ
x g ----- 272 kJ

x = 272 kJ × 16 g / 891,6 kJ = 4,88 g

You must burn 4,88 g of CH4.

Which of the following statements explain why the van der Waals equation must be used to describe real gases? X. interactions be

8090 [49]

Answer:

Statements Y and Z.

Explanation:

The Van der Waals equation is the next one:

$nRT = (P + \frac{an^{2}}{V^{2}})(V -nb)$ (1)

The ideal gas law is the following:

$nRT = PV$ (2)

where n: is the moles of the gas, R: is the gas constant, T: is the temperature, P: is the measured pressure, V: is the volume of the container, and a and b: are measured constants for a specific gas.

As we can see from equation (1), the Van der Waals equation introduces two terms that correct the P and the V of the ideal gas equation (2), by the incorporation of the intermolecular interaction between the gases and the gases volume. The term an²/V² corrects the P of the ideal gas equation since the measured pressure is decreased by the attraction forces between the gases. The term nb corrects the V of the ideal gas equation, taking into account the volume occuppied by the gas in the total volume, which implies a reduction of the total space available for the gas molecules.

So, the correct statements are the Y and Z: the non-zero volumes of the gas particles effectively decrease the amount of "empty space" between them and the molecular attractions between gas particles decrease the pressure exerted by the gas.

Have a nice day!
