Answer:Increases ; Decreases

Explanation:

Since the current selling price of a gallon of gasoline increased by 10%, coupled with a 15% inflation rate, there is a shift in the real value of gasolin in terms of some other goods (relative price). Therefore there's is a decrease in it's real prices. The nominal price is the money value. It thus increase due to the inflation and increase in selling price

A 5.024 mg sample of an unknown organic molecule containing carbon, hydrogen, and nitrogen only was burned and yielded 13.90 mg
Dafna1 [17]

Answer:

C8H17N

Explanation:

Mass of the unknown compound = 5.024 mg

Mass of CO2 = 13.90 mg

Mass of H2O = 6.048 mg

Next, we shall determine the mass of carbon, hydrogen and nitrogen present in the compound. This is illustrated below:

For carbon, C:

Molar mass of CO2 = 12 + (2x16) = 44g/mol

Mass of C = 12/44 x 13.90 = 3.791 mg

For hydrogen, H:

Molar mass of H2O = (2x1) + 16 = 18g/mol

Mass of H = 2/18 x 6.048 = 0.672 mg

For nitrogen, N:

Mass N = mass of unknown – (mass of C + mass of H)

Mass of N = 5.024 – (3.791 + 0.672)

Mass of N = 0.561 mg

Now, we can obtain the empirical formula for the compound as follow:

C = 3.791 mg

H = 0.672 mg

N = 0.561 mg

Divide each by their molar mass

C = 3.791 / 12 = 0.316

H = 0.672 / 1 = 0.672

N = 0.561 / 14 = 0.040

Divide by the smallest

C = 0.316 / 0.04 = 8

H = 0.672 / 0.04 = 17

N = 0.040 / 0.04 = 1

Therefore, the empirical formula for the compound is C8H17N

The amount of substance present in a certain object with a given half-life in terms of h can be expressed through the equation,

     A(t) = (A(o))(0.5)^(t/h)

where A(t) is the amount of substance after t years and A(o) is the original amount. In this item we are given that A(t)/A(o) is equal to 0.89. Substituting the known values,

     0.89 = (0.5)(t / 5730 years)

The value of t from the equation is 963.34 years.

One of the most important chemical reactions is the Haber process, in which N2 and H2 are converted to ammonia which is used in
Lera25 [3.4K]

Answer:

c) 22

Explanation:

Let's consider the following balanced equation.

N₂(g) + 3 H₂(g) ----> 2 NH₃(l)

According to the balanced equation, 34.0 g of NH₃ are produced by 1 mol of N₂. For 170 g of NH₃:

170gNH_{3}.\frac{1molN_{2}}{34.0gNH_{3}} =5.00molN_{2}

According to the balanced equation, 34.0 g of NH₃ are produced by 3 moles of H₂. For 170 g of NH₃:

170gNH_{3}.\frac{3molH_{2}}{34.0gNH_{3}} =15.0molH_{2}

The total gaseous moles before the reaction were 5.00 mol + 15.0 mol = 20.0 mol.

We can calculate the pressure (P) using the ideal gas equation.

P.V = n.R.T

where

V is the volume (50.0 L)

n is the number of moles (20.0 mol)

R is the ideal gas constant (0.08206atm.L/mol.K)

T is the absolute temperature (400.0 + 273.15 = 673.2K)

P=\frac{n.R.T}{V} =\frac{20.0mol\times (0.08206atm.L/mol.K)\times 673.2K ) }{50.0L} =22.0atm

Liquid nitrogen has a density of 0.807 g/ml at –195.8 °c. if 1.00 l of n2(l) is allowed to warm to 25°c at a pressure of 1.00 at
Flauer [41]
Step 1: Change density from g/mL to g/L;

                                  0.807 g/mL  =  807 g/L

Step 2: Find Moles of N₂;
As,
             Density  =  Mass / Volume
Or,
             Mass  =  Density × Volume

Putting Values,

            Mass  =  807 g/L × 1 L

            Mass  =  807 g
Also,
            Moles  =  Mass / M.mass

Putting values,

            Moles  =  807 g / 28 g.mol⁻¹

            Moles  =  28.82 moles

Step 3: Apply Ideal Gas Equation to Find Volume of gas occupied,

As,
                        P V  =  n R T

                            V  =  n R T / P
Putting Values, remember! don't forget to change temperatue into Kelvin (25 °C + 273 = 298 K)

                 V  =  (28.82 mol × 0.08206 atm.L.mol⁻¹.K⁻¹ × 298 K) ÷ 1 atm

                 V  =  704.76 L
