Hikers noticed that a sealed bag of potato chips puffs up when taken to the top of a mountain. Suppose that at the valley floor

below, the air pressure is 1. 0 atm, the temperature is 25°C, and the volume of the bag is 0. 985 L. At the top of the mountain, the temperature is 22°C and the bag has puffed up to 1. 030 L. What is the air pressure on top of the mountain? Type in your answer using the correct number of significant figures. Formula: P1V1 T1 = P2V2 T2 atm.

The final pressure or the air pressure on the top of the mountain is 0.818.

<h3>What is air pressure?</h3>

Air pressure is the pressure exerted by air in the atmosphere of the earth.

By the Gas law

$\dfrac{P_1V_1}{ T1} =\dfrac{ P_2V_2 }{T_2}$

Given, the pressure of the valley floor is 1 atm. = P1

The temperature is 25° C = T1

The volume of the bag is 0.985 L. = V1

The temperature at the top of the mountain is ° C = T2

Now, the volume of the bag is 1. 030 L = V2

To find P2

Put the values in the formula

$\dfrac{1 atm \times0.985 L}{ 25} =\dfrac{ P_2 \times 1. 030 L }{22}\\\\0.03832 = 0.0468 \times P_2\\\\P_2= 0.818$

Thus, the final pressure is 0.818.

The equilibrium constant for the reaction AgBr(s) Picture Ag+(aq) + Br− (aq) is the solubility product constant, Ksp = 7.7 × 10−

barxatty [35]

Answer:

The reaction will be non spontaneous at these concentrations.

Explanation:

$AgBr(s)\rightarrow Ag^+(aq) + Br^- (aq)$

Expression for an equilibrium constant $K_c$ :

$K_c=\frac{[Ag^+][Br^-]}{[AgCl]}=\frac{[Ag^+][Br^-]}{1}=[Ag^+][Br^-]$

Solubility product of the reaction:

$K_{sp}=[Ag^+][Br^-]=K_c=7.7\times 10^{-13}$

Reaction between Gibb's free energy and equilibrium constant if given as:

$\Delta G^o=-2.303\times R\times T\times \log K_c$

$\Delta G^o=-2.303\times R\times T\times \log K_{sp}$

$\Delta G^o=-2.303\times 8.314 J/K mol\times 298 K\times \log[7.7\times 10^{-13}]$

$\Delta G^o=69,117.84 J/mol=69.117 kJ/mol$

Gibb's free energy when concentration $[Ag^+] = 1.0\times 10^{-2} M$ and $[Br^-] = 1.0\times 10^{-3} M$

Reaction quotient of an equilibrium = Q

$Q=[Ag^+][Br^-]=1.0\times 10^{-2} M\times 1.0\times 10^{-3} M=1.0\times 10^{-5}$

$\Delta G=\Delta G^o+(2.303\times R\times T\times \log Q)$

$\Delta G=69.117 kJ/mol+(2.303\times 8.314 Joule/mol K\times 298 K\times \log[1.0\times 10^{-5}])$

$\Delta G=40.588 kJ/mol$

For reaction to spontaneous reaction: $\Delta G$ .
For reaction to non spontaneous reaction: $\Delta G>0$ .

Since ,the value of Gibbs free energy is greater than zero which means reaction will be non spontaneous at these concentrations

Which of the following CANNOT be determined by looking at the spectra of a star? *

Rzqust [24]

Answer:

A:temperature

Explanation:

The temperature cannot be determined by looking at the spectra of the star due to lack of the equipment for its measurement. <em>On the other-hand, the remaining statements like the distance from earth, movement towards or away from earth can be determined.</em>

Can someone help me with this please

never [62]

Answer: B. 1:2

Explanation: Beryllium and chlorine forms a binary ionic compound. Ionic compound is formed when a metal loses its electrons to a receiving non metal. Beryllium (metal) has two valence electrons while chlorine (nonmetal) has seven valence electrons, and so a beryllium atom has to give out its two valence electrons to attain a duplet stable structure while a chlorine atom will gain one electron to attain its stable octet structure. In the reaction between beryllium and chlorine, two atoms of chlorine have to accept the two electrons from one beryllium atom to attain their stable octet structure.

The formula of the compound formed is BeCl2.
