Calculate the decrease in temperarure when 2.00 L at 20.0 degrees celsius is compressed to 1.00 L.

1 answer:

3 0

I suspect that the pressure of this change is constant therefore

The equation is used from the combined gas law. (When pressure is constant both P's will cancel out P/P = 1)
V/T = V/T
Initial Change

Initially we have 2L at 20 degress what temperature will be at 1L.

2/20 = 1/T
0.1 = 1/T
0.1T = 1
T = 1/0.1
T = 10 degress celsius.

Hope this helps if you won't be able to understand what is the combined gas law just tell me :).

18. What is the percent by mass sugar of a solution made by dissolving 12.45 grams of sugar in 100 grams of water?

Fantom [35]

The percent by mass sugar of a solution : 11.07%

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

mass of sugar = 12.45 g

mass of water = 100 g

Required

The percent by mass

Solution

Mass of solution :

$\tt mass~sugar+mass~water=12.45+100=112.45~g$

Percent mass of sugar :

$\tt \%mass=\dfrac{mass~sugar}{mass~solution}\times 100\%\\\\\%mass=\dfrac{12.45}{112.45}\times 100\%=11.07\%$

The leaves of the rhubarb plant contain high concentrations of diprotic oxalic acid (hooccooh) and must be removed before the st

Andrei [34K]

First we have to find Ka1 and Ka2
pKa1 = - log Ka1 so Ka1 = 0.059
pKa2 = - log Ka2 so Ka2 = 6.46 x 10⁻⁵
Looking at the values of equilibrium constants we can see that the first one is really big compared to second one. so, the pH will be affected mainly by the first ionization of the acid.
Oxalic acid is H₂C₂O₄
H₂C₂O₄ ⇄ H⁺ + HC₂O₄⁻
0.0356 M 0 0
0.0356 - x x x
Ka1 = $\frac{[H^+][HC2O4^-]}{[H2C2O4]}$ = x² / 0.0356 - x
x = 0.025 M
pH = - log [H⁺] = - log (0.025) = 1.6

You have identified a substance to be solid in nature. which characteristics will justify your identification?

weeeeeb [17]

This question includes four answer choices: A. definite volume, highest molecular motion, highest kinetic energy B. indefinite volume, least molecular motion, highest kinetic energy C. definite volume, least molecular motion, lowest kinetic energy D. definite volume, no molecular motion, lowest kinetic energy Solids do not have the highest molecular motion (on the contrary they have the least molecular motion), so you can discard option A. Solids have a definite volume and the highest kinetic energy (given that they have the least molecular motion), so you discard option C. Molecules always have a vibrational motion, so you discard option D. Option C, have only characteristics that correctly describes a solid: definite volume, least molecular motion, lowest kinetic energy. Therefore, the answer is the option C. <span /><span>
