A flask containing helium gas is connected to an open-ended mercury manometer. The open end is exposed to the atmosphere, where

the prevailing pressure is 752 torr. The mercury level in the open arm is 26 mm above that in the arm connected to the flask of helium.What is the helium pressure, in torr?

Answer:

726 torr

Explanation:

Generally, atmospheric pressure can be measured using a manometer which is in form of a U-shaped tube. In addition, 1 mm Hg is equivalent to 1 torr. Therefore, 752 torr is equivalent to 752 mm Hg. Therefore, the total pressure will be equivalent to the atmospheric pressure (mm Hg) + the mercury height.

In this case, the mercury height = -26 mm

Thus:

The helium pressure = 752 - 26 = 726 mm Hg

This is also equivalent to 726 torr

If the composition of the reaction mixture at 400 k is [brcl] = 0.00415 m, [br2] = 0.00366 m, and [cl2] = 0.000672 m, what is th
Scorpion4ik [409]
Q is unlike K value it describes the reaction that is not at equilibrium.
by considering this reaction:
aA+ bB⇄ cC
and our reaction is:
Br2 + Cl2 ⇄ 2 BrCl

According to Q low:
Q= concentration of products/concentration of reactants
but this equation in the gaseous or aqueous states only.
∴ Q = [BrCl]^2 / [Br2] [Cl2]

and we have [Br2] = 0.00366 m  [Cl2]= 0.000672 m  [BrCl] = 0.00415 m

by substitution:
                          = [0.00415]^2 / ( [0.00366] * [0.000672])
             ∴   Q   = 7

Which of the following statements concerning hydrocarbons is/are correct?
Alona [7]

Answer:

1.  Saturated hydrocarbons may be cyclic or acyclic molecules.

2.  An unsaturated hydrocarbon molecule contains at least one double bond.

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, hydrocarbons are defined as the simplest organic compounds containing both carbon and hydrogen only, for that reason we can immediately discard the third statement as ethylenediamine is classified as an amine (organic chain containing NH groups).

Next, as saturated hydrocarbons only show single carbon-to-carbon bonds and carbon-to-hydrogen bonds, they may be cyclic (ring-like-shaped) or acyclic (not forming rings), so first statement is true

Finally, since we can find saturated hydrocarbons which have single carbon-to-carbon and carbon-to-hydrogen bonds only and unsaturated hydrocarbons which could have double or triple bonds between carbons and carbon-to-hydrogen bonds, the presence of at least one double bond makes the hydrocarbon unsaturated.

Therefore, first and second statements are correct.

Best regards.

2. Suggest four ways in which the concentration of PH3 could be increased in an equilibrium described by the following equation:
Nesterboy [21]

Answer

  • increase in temperature
  • decrease in pressure
  • continuous removal of PH3
  • adding more of P into the system

Explanation:

        In the reaction   P4(g)+6H2(g) ⇌ 4PH3(g);

  • The effect of temperature on equilibrium has to do with the heat of reaction. Recall that for an endothermic reaction, heat is absorbed in the reaction, and the value of ΔH is positive. Thus, for an endothermic reaction, we can picture heat as being a reactant:

        heat+A⇌BΔH=+

  • Since the reaction is endothermic reaction, heat is a absorbed. Decreasing the temperature will shift the equilibrium to the left, while increasing the temperature will shift the equilibrium to the right forming more of PH3.
  • According to Le Chatelier’s principle, adding additional reactant to a system will shift the equilibrium to the right, towards the side of the products. In the same Way, reducing the concentration of the product will also shift equilibrium to the right continually forming PH3 as it is removed.

If a large marshmallow has a volume of 2.50 i n 3 and density of 0.242 g/c m 3 , how much would it weigh in grams? 1 i n 3 =16.3
Illusion [34]

Density of a substance is defined as the mass of the substance divided by the volume.

Density of the substance= 0.242 g cm⁻³  

volume of the substance= 2.50 in³  

As, 1 in³= 16.39 cm³  

So, 2.50 in³= 16.39× 2.50 cm³=40.97 cm³

As ,  

Density=\frac{mass}{volume}  

Mass=volume ×Density

Mass=40.97 × 0.242

Mass=9.916 g.
