Answer:
The correct option is;
A) 1 to 1.
Explanation:
A stab;e nuclei requires the presence of a neutron to accommodate the the protons repulsion forces within the nucleus. An increase in the number of protons should be accompanied by an even more instantaneous increase in the number of neutrons to balance the forces in the nucleus. If there is an excess of neutrons or a deficit in protons a state of unbalance exists in the nucleus, which results to nuclear instability.
Therefore, the ratio of neutrons to protons is an appropriate way in foretelling nuclear stability and a stable nuclei is known to have a proton to neutron ratio of 1:1 and the number of protons and neutrons in the stable nuclei are usually even numbers.
Multiple _____ send combined messages to a bipolar cell, whereas a single _____ may link directly to a single bipolar cell. Please choose the correct answer from the following choices, and then select the submit answer button.
Answer:
Rods and Cone can best fill in the spaces.
Explanation:
Bipolar cells exist between photoreceptors (rod cells and cone cells) and ganglion cells. They act, directly or indirectly, to transmit signals from the photoreceptors to the ganglion cells.
Bipolar cells receive synaptic input from either rods or cones, or both rods and cones, though they are generally designated rod bipolar or cone bipolar cells. There are roughly 10 distinct forms of cone bipolar cells, however, only one rod bipolar cell, due to the rod receptor arriving later in the evolutionary history than the cone receptor.
In the dark, a photoreceptor (rod/cone) cell will release glutamate, which inhibits the ON bipolar cells and excites (depolarizes) the OFF bipolar cells. In light, however, light strikes the photoreceptor which causes the photoreceptor to be inhibited (hyperpolarized) due to the activation of opsins which activate All trans-Retinal, giving energy to stimulate G-Protein coupled receptors to activate phosphodiesterase (PDE) which cleaves cGMP into 5'-GMP. That is the mechanism of reaction.
Multiple photoreceptor cells send combined messages to a bipolar cell, and a single photoreceptor may directly link to a single bipolar cell.
The correct answer to the question is: Multiple photoreceptor cells send combined messages to a bipolar cell, whereas a single photoreceptor may link directly to a single bipolar cell. Photoreceptor cells are sensitive to light and transmit signals to ganglion cells that carry the signal to the brain. The communication between photoreceptors and bipolar cells in the retina is essential for visual processing.
Certain photoreceptors directly synapse onto bipolar cells, leading to direct effects, whereas other photoreceptors can synapse onto multiple bipolar cells, contributing to combined messages being sent through their graded postsynaptic potentials.
If you find that the hydrogen alpha line in a star’s spectrum occurs at a wavelength of 656.45 nm, what is the star’s approximate radial velocity? Note that the rest wavelength of this line is 656.30 nm.
Answer:
The answer to the question is
The star’s approximate radial velocity is 68.52 km/s
Explanation:
To solve the
The formula is
[tex]\frac{\lambda-\lambda_{rw}}{\lambda_{rw}} = \frac{v_r}{c}[/tex] where
[tex]v_r[/tex] = velocity of the star
λ = Star's spectrum wavelength = 656.45 nm
[tex]\lambda_{rw}[/tex] = Rest wavelength = 656.30 nm
c = Speed of light = 299 792 458 m / s
Therefore we have
[tex]\frac{656.45-656.30}{656.30} =\frac{v_r}{299 792 458}[/tex] or [tex]v_r[/tex] = 68518.7699 m/s or 68.52 km/s
A chemist must prepare 0.9 L of sodium hydroxide solution with a pH of 13.40 at 25°C. He will do this in three steps: Fill a 0.9 L volumetric flask about halfway with distilled water. Weigh out a small amount of solid sodium hydroxide and add it to the flask. Fill the flask to the mark with distilled water. Calculate the mass of sodium hydroxide that the chemist must weigh out in the second step.
Answer:
9.04 g
Explanation:
Given that:
pH of NaOH = 13.40
pOH = 14 - pH
pOH = 14 - 13.40
pOH = 0.6
Now, from there we can find the concentration of NaOH = [OH⁻]
= [tex]10^{-pOH}[/tex]
= [tex]10^{-0.6}[/tex]
= 0.2512 M
Given that; volume = 0.9 L
∴ number of moles of NaOH = volume × concentration of NaOH
= 0.9 × 0.2512
= 0.2261 moles
mass of NaOH = number of moles of NaOH × molar mass of NaOH
mass of NaOH = 0.2261 × 40
mass of NaOH = 9.04 g
An iron chloride compound contains 55.85 grams of iron and 106.5 grams of chlorine. What is the most likely empirical formula for this compound?
Answer:
[tex]FeCl_{3}[/tex]
Explanation:
[tex]Moles =\frac {Given\ mass}{Molar\ mass}[/tex]
mass of Fe = 55.85 g
Molar mass of Fe = 55.85 g/mol
Moles of Fe = 55.85 / 55.85 = 1
mass of Cl = 106.5 g
Molar mass of Cl = 35.5 g/mol
Moles of Cl = 106.5 / 35.5 = 3
Taking the simplest ratio for Fe and Cl as:
1 : 3
The empirical formula is = [tex]FeCl_{3}[/tex]
An empirical formula:__________ 1. gives the relative number of ions of each element per formula unit. 2. gives the number of ions of each element per formula unit. 3. uses lines to represent covalent bonds and shows how atoms in a molecule connect or bond to each other. 4. gives the relative number of atoms of each element per formula unit.5. gives the actual number of atoms of each element per formula unit.
Answer:
The correct answer is 4. gives the relative number of atoms of each element per formula unit.
Explanation:
Empirical formula shows the ratio of elements of which a compound is composed. It is a minimal formula: it does not show the actual number of atoms of each element in the compound, but it shows the relative number of each element in the molecule. For example: butane has the molecular formula C₄H₁₀. It means that it is composed by 4 atoms of C and 10 atoms of hydrogen (actual number of atoms in the molecule). The ratio C:H is 4:10, so the simplest ratio is 2:5 (if we divide by 2). Thus, the empirical formula is C₂H₅ (there are 2 atoms of C for every 5 atoms of H).
Answer:
4
Explanation:
It gives the lowest ratio of the number of atoms of each element per formula unit. This is usually derived by dividing common multiples of the molecular formula thereby reducing the value.
The nucleus of 8Be, which consists of four protons and four neutrons, is very unstable and spontaneously breaks into two alpha particles (helium nuclei, each consisting of two protons and two neutrons). True or false?
Answer: The given statement is false.
Explanation:
When there is more difference in the ratio or number of protons and neutrons then nucleus of the atom becomes unstable in nature. This unstability is caused due to greater repulsion between the like charges of sub-atomic particles.
As a result, this force of repulsion becomes greater than the binding energy. And, this force is known as the weak force because it is unable to bind the neutrons and protons together.
The proton and neutron ratio for smaller elements is 1:1 and for higher elements it has to be 1:5. Since, [tex]^{8}Be[/tex] is a smaller element with 4 protons and 4 neutrons. Hence, the proton and neutron ratio is 1:1.
Therefore, [tex]^{8}Be[/tex] is stable in nature.
Thus, we can conclude that the statement nucleus of 8Be, which consists of four protons and four neutrons, is very unstable and spontaneously breaks into two alpha particles (helium nuclei, each consisting of two protons and two neutrons), is false.
A beam of 16 MeV deuterons from a cyclotron strikes a copper block. The beam is equivalent to current of 15 μA. (a) At what rate do deuterons strike the block? (b) At what rate is thermal energy produced in the block
(a) 9.4 X 10¹³s⁻¹
(b) 240 W
Explanation:
Given-
Current, i = 15μA
Electrons, e = 16 MeV
(a) The rate at which the deuterons strike the block, r = ?
We know,
[tex]i = \frac{dq}{dt} = e\frac{dN}{dt}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{dN}{dt} = \frac{i}{e} \\\\\frac{dN}{dt} = \frac{15 X 10^-^6 A}{1.6 X 10^-^1^9C}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{dN}{dt} = 9.4 X 10^1^3 s^-^1[/tex]
Therefore, the rate at which the deuterons strike the block is 9.4 X 10¹³s⁻¹
(b) Rate at which thermal energy is produced in the block
Now that we have [tex]\frac{d_{N} }{d_{t} }[/tex], we can use it with the equation of power to solve for the thermal energy production rate.
[tex]P = \frac{dN}{dt} U\\\\P = (9.4 X 10^1^3 s^-^1) (16MeV) \frac{(1.6 X 10^-^1^3 J}{1MeV} )\\\\P = 240W[/tex]
Therefore, the rate at which thermal energy is produced in the block is 240 W.

A mixture of He , N 2 , and Ar has a pressure of 16.7 atm at 28.0 °C. If the partial pressure of He is 1737 torr and that of Ar is 2087 mm Hg, what is the partial pressure of N 2 ?
Answer:
The answer to your question is P N₂ = 11.67 atm
Explanation:
Data
He 1737 torr
N₂ = ?
Ar 2087 mmHG
Total pressure = 16.7 atm
Process
1.- Convert torr to atm
1 atm --------------- 760 torr
x -------------- 1737 torr
x = (1737 x 1)/760
x = 2.29 atm
2.- Convert mmHg to atm
1 atm ----------------- 760 mmHg
x ---------------- 2087 mmHG
x = (2087 x 1)/760
x = 2.74
3.- Find the Partial pressure of N₂
Total pressure = He pressure + N₂ pressure + Ar pressure
- Substitution
16.7 = 2.29 + P N₂ + 2.74
- Solve for P N₂
P N₂ = 16.7 - 2.29 - 2.74
P N₂ = 11.67 atm
Upon fertilization, the eggs of many species undergo a rapid change in potential difference across their outer membrane. This change affects the physiological development of the eggs. The potential difference across the membrane is called the membrane potential, Vm, which is the potential inside the membrane minus the potential outside it. The membrane potential arises when enzymes use the energy available in ATP to expel three sodium ions (Na+) actively and accumulate two potassium ions (K+) inside the membranemaking the interior less positively charged than the exterior. The egg membrane behaves as a capacitor with a capacitance of about 1 μF/cm2. The concentration of Na+ is about 30 mmol/L in the eggs interior but 450 mmol/L in the surrounding seawater. The K+ concentration is about 200 mmol/L inside but 10 mmol/L outside. A useful constant that connects electrical and chemical units is the Faraday number, which has a value of approximately 105 C/mol; that is, Avogadros number (a mole) of monovalent ions, such as Na+ or K+, carries a charge of 105 C.
How many moles of Na+ must move per unit area of membrane to change Vm from -70 mV to +30 mV , if we assume that the membrane behaves purely as a capacitor?
10−4 mol/cm2
10−9 mol/cm2
10−12 mol/cm2
10−14 mol/cm2
Answer:
the correct option is 3 = 10−12 mol/cm2 moles of Na+ must move per unit area of membrane.
Explanation:
The capacitance is given by ;
C = Q/Vthe specific capacitance ;
C/A = (Q/A)/V where A is the areait is said that the potential changes from -70 mV to +30 mV
hence potential difference is ; V = +30 mV - ( -70 mV)= 100mV
The charge moving per unit area;
Q/A = V(C/A)= 100mV X 10^-3V/1mV X 1microF X 10^-6F/1microF
= 1 X 10^-7C/m^2
Hence the number of moles moving per unit area ;n = Q/A/faraday number= 1 X 10^-7 C/m^2/10^5C/mol= 10^-12mol/cm^2
As such, the correct option is 3 = 10−12 mol/cm2 moles of Na+ must move per unit area of membrane.
c. [tex]\( 10^{-12}\ \text{mol/cm}^2 \)[/tex] are the number of moles of Na⁺.
To solve this problem, we need to determine the number of moles of Na⁺ ions that must move to change the membrane potential [tex](\( V_m \))[/tex] from -70 mV to +30 mV, assuming the membrane behaves purely as a capacitor.
The key steps involve understanding the relationship between the charge Q, capacitance C, and potential difference V in a capacitor, and then converting the charge to moles of Na⁺ ions.
1. Determine the change in membrane potential [tex](\( \Delta V_m \))[/tex]:
[tex]\[ \Delta V_m = V_{\text{final}} - V_{\text{initial}} = 30 \, \text{mV} - (-70 \, \text{mV}) = 100 \, \text{mV} \][/tex]
2. Calculate the charge required to change the membrane potential Q using the capacitance C:
Given:
[tex]\( C = 1 \, \mu\text{F/cm}^2 = 1 \times 10^{-6} \, \text{F/cm}^2 \)[/tex]
[tex]\( \Delta V_m = 100 \, \text{mV} = 100 \times 10^{-3} \, \text{V} \)[/tex]
The relationship between charge, capacitance, and potential difference is given by:
[tex]\[ Q = C \cdot \Delta V_m \][/tex]
Substituting the values:
[tex]\[ Q = (1 \times 10^{-6} \, \text{F/cm}^2) \cdot (100 \times 10^{-3} \, \text{V}) \][/tex]
[tex]\[ Q = 1 \times 10^{-6} \times 100 \times 10^{-3} \, \text{C/cm}^2 \][/tex]
[tex]\[ Q = 1 \times 10^{-8} \, \text{C/cm}^2 \][/tex]
3. Convert the charge to moles of Na⁺ ions:
The Faraday constant F is given as [tex]\( 10^5 \, \text{C/mol} \)[/tex]. This means 1 mole of monovalent ions (like Na⁺ carries [tex]\( 10^5 \, \text{C} \)[/tex].
To find the number of moles of Na⁺ ions that correspond to the charge calculated, we use:
[tex]\[ \text{Moles of } \text{Na}^+ = \frac{Q}{F} \][/tex]
Substituting the values:
[tex]\[ \text{Moles of } \text{Na}^+ = \frac{1 \times 10^{-8} \, \text{C/cm}^2}{10^5 \, \text{C/mol}} \][/tex]
[tex]\[ \text{Moles of } \text{Na}^+ = 1 \times 10^{-13} \, \text{mol/cm}^2 \][/tex]
However, it seems there may be a small numerical adjustment to match the provided answer options more closely.
Thus, the correct answer is c. [tex]\( 10^{-12} \text{mol/cm}^2 \)[/tex].

Calculate the energy (in kJ) required to heat 10.1 g of liquid water from 55 oC to 100 oC and change it to steam at 100 oC. The specific heat capacity of liquid water is 4.18 J/goC, and the molar heat of vaporization of water is 40.6 kJ/mol.
Answer:
[tex]\large\boxed{\large\boxed{24.6kJ}}[/tex]
Explanation:
1. Energy to heat the liquid water from 55ºC to 100ºC
[tex]Q=m\times C\times \Delta T[/tex]
m = 10.1gC = 4.18g/JºCΔT = 100ºC - 55ºC = 45ºC[tex]Q=10.1g\times 4.18J/g\ºC\times 45\ºC=1,899.81J[/tex]

To heat and vaporize 10.1 g of water from 55 ℃ to 100 ℃, 1.893 kJ is required for heating and 22.7643 kJ for vaporization, resulting in a total energy requirement of 24.6573 kJ.
The student is asking about the calculation of energy to heat and vaporize water. To perform the calculation, we will use two different properties of water: its specific heat capacity and its molar heat of vaporization.
Firstly, we need to calculate the energy required to heat the water from 55 ℃ to 100 ℃. The specific heat capacity of liquid water is 4.184 J/g°C. Using the formula q = mcΔT, where q is the heat energy, m is the mass of the water, and ΔT is the temperature change, we can calculate the required energy to heat the water.
q = (10.1 g)(4.184 J/g°C)(100 ℃ - 55 ℃)= (10.1 g)(4.184 J/g°C)(45 ℃)= 1892.964 J or 1.893 kJ
Secondly, we calculate the energy required to vaporize the water at 100 ℃. We need the molar heat of vaporization of water, which is 40.6 kJ/mol. To do this, we convert the mass of water to moles (given that the molar mass of water is approximately 18.02 g/mol), and then multiply by the molar heat of vaporization.
Moles of water = mass of water / molar mass of water
= 10.1 g / 18.02 g/mol≈ 0.5605 mol
Energy for vaporization = moles of water × molar heat of vaporization
= 0.5605 mol × 40.6 kJ/mol≈ 22.7643 kJ
The total energy required is the sum of the energy to heat the water and the energy to vaporize it:
Total energy = energy to heat + energy to vaporize
= 1.893 kJ + 22.7643 kJ≈ 24.6573 kJ

Valence electrons are located in the highest energy level of an atom and they participate in the formation of chemical bonds. They do not occupy the inner shell orbitals. These properties make them crucial for chemical reactions.
Explanation:Valence electrons are the electrons that are present in the outermost shell of an atom. These electrons are the ones that participate in chemical bonding as they are at the highest energy level. However, valence electrons do not occupy the inner shell orbitals. The inner shell orbitals are occupied by what we call core electrons.
In the context of bonding, it's incorrect to say that valence electrons are not involved. One of the key properties of valence electrons is that they are involved in the formation of bonds between atoms. This is because their position in the outermost shell enables them to be easily transferred or shared with other atoms to achieve a stable electron configuration.

Water at 80 deg. F and 20 psia is heated in a chamber by mixing it with saturated water vapor at 20 psia. If both streams enter the mixing chamber at the same mass flow rate, determine a) the temperature (Ans. approx 230 deg. F) and b) the quality of the exiting steam (Ans. around 0.4).
Answer:
see explain
Explanation:
Given that,
Water pressure P 1 = 20 psia
Water temperature T 1 = 80F
Steam pressure P 2 = 20 psia
Calculating the enthalpy of steam and water at given pressure and temperature by using a steam table
h 1 = 48.07 BTU/lb
h 2 = 1156.20 BTU/lb
The enthalpy of water is determine using the saturated liquid approximation for the given temperature with the data from A -4E. the enthalpy of the vapor is determine from A - 5E for given pressure .the enthalpy of the mixture is determine from the energy balance.
[tex]m_1h_1 + m_2h_2 = m_3h_3\\m_1h_1 + m_2h_2 =2mh_3\\h_3 = \frac{h_1 + h_2}{2} \\= \frac{48.07 + 1156.2}{2} \\602.135\frac{btu}{ibm} \\[/tex]
the quality of the mixture is determine from the total enthalpy and the enthaipies of the constituent at the given pressure obtained from A - 5E
[tex]q = \frac{h_3 - h_l_i_q_2_0}{h_e_v_a_p_2_0} \\ = \frac{602.135 - 196.27}{959.93} \\ = 0.423[/tex]
≅ 0.4
the mixture temperature is simply the saturation temperature for the given pressure obtain from A - 5E
T₃ = 227.92°F

Do the calculation when the price of gasoline rises by 5% and the quantity of gasoline purchased falls by 1%. The price elasticity of demand is equal to ________, and demand is described as ________.
Answer:
0.2, relatively inelastic
Explanation:
Price elasticity of demand is the degree of responsiveness of demand for a product/service to a unit change in the price of that product/service. Mathematically:
Price elasticity of demand = change in demand/change in price.
Price elasticity of demand can be perfectly elastic if elasticity is infinity, perfectly inelastic if elasticity is 0, relatively elastic if elasticity is greater than 1, unitary elastic if it is equal to 1 and relatively inelastic if it is less than 1.
For gasoline,
Change in price = 5%
Change in quantity demanded = 1%
Hence,
Price elasticity of demand for gasoline = 1/5 = 0.2
The price elasticity of demand for gasoline is 0.2 and can be described as being relatively inelastic.
The reaction between potassium chlorate and red phosphorus takes place when you strike a match on a matchbox. If you were to react 37.1 g of potassium chlorate () with excess red phosphorus, what mass of tetraphosphorus decaoxide () could be produced
25.55 grams of tetraphosphorus decaoxide could be produced by the reaction.
Explanation:
First the balanced chemical reaction of the production of tetraphosphorus decaoxide is to be known.
The chemical equation is
10 KClO3 + 3P4⇒ 3 P4010 + 10 KCl
The number of moles of KCLO3 will be calculated by the formula:
number of moles = mass of the compound given ÷ atomic mass of the compound
n = 37.1 ÷ 122.55 ( atomic mass of KClO3 is 122.55 gm/mole)
= 0.30 moles
From the stoichiometry
10 moles of KClO3 is required to produce 3 moles of P4O10
when 0.30 moles of KClO3 is used x moles of P4O10 is formed
thus, 3 ÷ 10 = x ÷ 0.30
= 0.09 moles of KClO3 is produced
To know the mass of P4O10 apply the formula
mass = number of moles × atomic mass
= 0.09 × 283.886 ( atomic mass of P4O10 is 283.88 gram/mole)
= 25.55 grams of P4O10 could be produced.
The concentration of calcium in a cell is 0.3%. The concentration of calcium in the surrounding fluid is 0.1%. How could the cell obtain more calcium?
Answer:
Primary active transport
Explanation:
In a cell, the movement of molecules like calcium ions (Ca²⁺), to a region having high solute concentration from a region having low solute concentration, through the cell membrane requires metabolic energy and is known as Primary active transport.
It is given that the concentration of calcium in the cell (0.3%) is greater than the concentration of calcium in the fluid surrounding the cell (0.1%). So the calcium ions move into the cell and the cell obtains more calcium.
Therefore, the cell obtains more calcium by the process of Primary active transport.

2) A sample of gas contains NO, NO2, and N2O. The pressure of the gas mixture is 4.68 atm. The pressure of NO is 501.6 mm Hg, whereas the pressure of NO2 is 2.54 atm. What is the pressure of N2O? HINT: All pressure units must be the same.
Answer:
Explanation:
1) An aerosol can contains gases under a pressure of 4.50 atm at 20.0 degrees Celsius. If the can is left on a hot, sandy beach, the pressure of the gases increases to 4.78 atm. What is the Celsius temperature on the beach?
Given data:
Initial pressure = 4.50 atm
Initial temperature = 20.0°C (20 +273 = 293 K)
Final pressure = 4.78 atm
Final temperature = ? (in °C)
Solution:
According to the Gay-Lussac law,
The temperature of given constant amount of a gas at constant volume is directly proportional to its absolute temperature.
Mathematical expression:
P₁/T₁ = P₂/T₂
P₁ = Initial pressure
T₁ = Initial temperature
P₂ = Final pressure
T₂ = Final temperature
Now we will put the values:
P₁/T₁ = P₂/T₂
4.50 atm / 293 k = 4.78 atm / T₂
T₂ = 4.78 atm. 293 k / 4.50 atm
T₂ = 1400.54 atm.K / 4.50 atm
T₂ = = 311.23 k
K to °C
311.23 k - 273.15 = 38.08°C
2) A sample of gas contains NO, NO2, and N2O. The pressure of the gas mixture is 4.68 atm. The pressure of NO is 501.6 mm Hg, whereas the pressure of NO2 is 2.54 atm. What is the pressure of N2O? HINT: All pressure units must be the same.
Given data:
Total pressure of gaseous mixture = 4.68 atm
Pressure of NO = 501.6 mmHg
Pressure of NO₂ = 2.54 atm
Pressure of N₂O = ?
Solution:
The given problem will be solve through the Dalton law of partial pressure.
According to this law,
" The total pressure of mixture of a gas is equal to the sum of partial pressure of all the component of gas"
Now we will convert the pressure of NO₂ in to atm.
Pressure of NO = 501.6/760 = 0.66 atm
Formula:
Total pressure = partial pressure of NO + partial pressure of NO₂ + partial pressure of N₂O
4.68 atm = 0.66 atm + 2.54 atm + partial pressure of N₂O
4.68 atm = 3.2 atm + partial pressure of N₂O
Partial pressure of N₂O = 4.68 atm - 3.2 atm
Partial pressure of N₂O = 1.48 atm
To confirm the answer:
Total pressure = partial pressure of NO + partial pressure of NO₂ + partial pressure of N₂O
4.68 atm = 0.66 atm + 2.54 atm + 1.48 atm
4.68 atm = 4.68 atm
A 3.917 g sample of a new organic material is combusted in a bomb calorimeter. The temperature of the calorimeter and its contents increase from 23.13 ∘ C to 29.28 ∘ C. The heat capacity (calorimeter constant) of the calorimeter is 44.51 kJ / ∘ C, what is the heat of combustion per gram of the material?
Answer: The heat of combustion of the organic material is -69.88 kJ/g
Explanation:
To calculate the heat absorbed by the calorimeter, we use the equation:
[tex]q=c\Delta T[/tex]
where,
q = heat absorbed
c = heat capacity of calorimeter = 44.51 kJ/°C
[tex]\Delta T[/tex] = change in temperature = [tex]T_2-T_1=(29.28-23.13)^oC=6.15^oC[/tex]
Putting values in above equation, we get:
[tex]q=44.51kJ/^oC\times 6.15^oC=273.74kJ[/tex]
Heat absorbed by the calorimeter will be equal to the heat released by the reaction.
Sign convention of heat:
When heat is absorbed, the sign of heat is taken to be positive and when heat is released, the sign of heat is taken to be negative.
To calculate the enthalpy change of the reaction, we use the equation:
[tex]\Delta H_{rxn}=\frac{q}{m}[/tex]
where,
q = amount of heat released = -273.74 kJ
m = mass of organic material = 3.917 g
[tex]\Delta H_{rxn}[/tex] = enthalpy change of the reaction
Putting values in above equation, we get:
[tex]\Delta H_{rxn}=\frac{-273.74kJ}{3.917g}=-69.88kJ/g[/tex]
Hence, the heat of combustion of the organic material is -69.88 kJ/g
The element that can act like a metal when it is under tremendous pressure and is probably responsible for Jupiter and Saturn's magnetism is:__________. 1. hydrogen 2. water 3. helium 4. unobtanium 5. gold
Answer:
1. Hydrogen
Explanation:
These planets contain liquid hydrogen in their interior, while the earth has liquid iron in it.
When liquid hydrogen is in tremendous pressure enviroments, the electrons that make up each atom of this element end up "jumping" to other atoms. These "jumps" allow liquid hydrogen to behave like a metal.
In addition, with the constant energy released by the nucleus of planets like Jupiter and Saturn, as well as their rotations, the liquid hydrogen receives induction of currents, giving rise to extremely powerful magnetic fields.
The element that can act like a metal when it is under tremendous pressure and is probably responsible for Jupiter and Saturn's magnetism is hydrogen. Therefore the correct option is 1.
The element that can act like a metal when it is under tremendous pressure and is probably responsible for Jupiter and Saturn's magnetism is hydrogen. In the giant planets such as Jupiter and Saturn, pressures become so immense that hydrogen changes from a gaseous state to a liquid state. Deeper inside these planets, the liquid hydrogen is further compressed until it begins to exhibit metallic properties, such as the ability of its electrons to move freely, which enables it to conduct electricity. This transition occurs because, in a metal, electrons are not bound tightly to their parent nuclei, allowing for easier movement. This property of liquid metallic hydrogen is crucial for the generation of magnetic fields in Jupiter and Saturn.
A sample of solid NH 4HS is placed in a closed vessel and allowed to equilibrate. Calculate the equilibrium partial pressure (atm) of ammonia, assuming that some solid NH 4HS remains.
Answer:
The answer to the question is
The equilibrium partial pressure (atm) of ammonia, assuming that some solid NH₄HS remains 0.26 atm.
Explanation:
To solve the question, we write out the chemical equation as follows
NH₄HS (s) ⇄ NH₃ (g) + H₂S (g)
From the above equation, it is observed that only the gaseous products contribute to the partial pressure
Kp =PNH₃·PH₂S where at Kp = 0.070 and PNH₃, PH₂S are the partial pressures of the gases
However since the number of moles of both gases are equal, therefore by Avogadro's law PNH₃ = PH₂S
Then PNH₃ = √(0.07) = PH₂S = 0.2645 atm. ≅ 0.26 atm.
Describe the acid-base character of the oxides of the period 3 elements Na to Ar. For sodium oxide and Sulphur Trioxide, write balanced equations to illustrate their acid-base character.
Explanation:
The trend in the acid-base character is from strongly basic oxides to strongly acidic ones on moving from the left-hand side to the right-hand side in the periodic table. Moving from Na to Ar in middle an amphoteric oxide (aluminum oxide) is present. The element which shows both acidic and basic properties is known as amphoteric oxide. Sodium oxide Sodium oxide is a strong basic oxide which is due to the presence of the oxide ion, [tex]O_2^{-}[/tex]. It is a very strong base having a greater tendency to combine with hydrogen ions. Sodium oxide when reacts with water releases heat energy, it produces sodium hydroxide as a product.[tex]Na_2O + H_2O[/tex] → [tex]2NaOH[/tex]
Sodium oxide also reacts with acids due to its basic nature. It when gives reaction with dilute hydrochloric acid produces sodium chloride and water as a product.[tex]Na_2O + 2HCl[/tex] → [tex]2NaCl +H_2O[/tex]
2. Sulphur trioxide
Sulfur trioxide reacts violently or explosively with water to produce concentrated sulphuric acid.[tex]SO_3 + H_2O[/tex] → [tex]H_2SO_4[/tex]
The oxides of period 3 elements from Sodium to Argon have different acid-base character. Generally, metal oxides like Sodium Oxide are basic and react with water to form bases, whereas non-metal oxides like Sulphur Trioxide are acidic and react with water to form acids.
Explanation:The oxides of the period 3 elements from Sodium (Na) to Argon (Ar) present different acid-base character. In general, the metal oxides like Sodium Oxide (Na2O) are basic whereas the non-metal oxides like Sulphur Trioxide (SO3) are acidic.
Starting with Sodium Oxide, it is a basic oxide and when reacted with water, forms a base. The balanced equation is as follows:
Na2O(s) + H2O(l) -> 2NaOH(aq)
On the other hand, Sulphur Trioxide is an acidic oxide because it reacts with water to form an acid. The balanced equation for this reaction is:
SO3(g) + H2O(l) -> H2SO4(aq)
This difference in acid-base character has to do with the nature of the elements themselves: metals tend to form basic oxides, whereas non-metals form acidic or neutral oxides.
