Answer:

  see attached

Explanation:

Dimensional analysis is useful whenever dimensions are involved. Unless it is quite clear that all of the problem dimensions are consistent (for example, all speeds in miles per hour, or all angles in degrees), dimensional analysis can be useful for keeping the math straight.

Only units of the same dimensions can be added or subtracted. When numbers are multiplied or divided or raised to a power, dimensional analysis can help ensure that the appropriate operations are being used on appropriate numbers. It can also help ensure that dimensions are being combined properly to give appropriate derived dimensions.

Scientific notation is a way of writing very large or very small numbers compactly. It can also help with "order of magnitude" estimates. If an answer using SI prefixes is appropriate, or if a number can be conveniently expressed in standard form, then scientific notation is usually not required.

On the other hand, SI prefixes may not be appropriate in some cases, or a problem may specify that scientific notation be used for expressing results. In those instances, scientific notation should be used.

A Gas OCCUPIES 525ML AT A PRESSURE OF 85.0 kPa WHAT WOULD THE VOLUME OF THE GAS BE AT THE PRESSURE OF 65.0 kPa
german

Boyle's law of ideal gas: This law states that the volume of a gas is inversely proportional to its pressure at a constant temperature. Acc to this law we can write the relation of pressure and volume as:

PV=Constant

That means:

P_{1}V_{1}=P_{2}V_{2}

From that equation we can calculate Volume of gas at a certain pressure:

P₁=Initial pressure

V₁=Initial volume

P₂=Final pressure

V₂= Final volume

Here P₁, initial pressure is given as 85.0 kPa

V₁, initial volume is given as 525 mL

P₂, final pressure is 65.0 kPa

P_{1}V_{1}=P_{2}V_{2}

so,

V_{2}=85\times 525\div 65

=686 mL

Volume of gas will be 686 mL.

Using periodic trends, place the following bonds in order of increasing ionic character. Si-P Si-Cl Si-S Using periodic trends,
mars1129 [50]

Answer: Option (5) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

An ionic bond is formed by transfer of electrons between the two chemically combining atoms. Whereas a covalent bond is defined as the bond formed by sharing of electrons between the two chemically combining atoms.

When electronegativity difference is from 0.0 to 0.4 then bond formed between the two atoms is non-polar covalent in nature.

When electronegativity difference is greater than 0.4 and less than 1.7 then bond between the two atoms is a polar covalent bond.

When electronegativity difference is 1.7 or greater than the bond formed is ionic in nature.

Therefore, electronegativity difference of the given species is as follows.

Si-P = 2.1 - 1.8 = 0.3

Si-Cl = 3.0 - 1.8 = 1.2

Si-S = 2.5 - 1.8 = 0.7

Thus, we can conclude that given bonds are placed in order of increasing ionic character as follows.

                           Si-P < Si-S < Si-Cl

If a bottle of olive oil contains 1.2 kg of olive oil, what is the volume, in milliliters (mL), of the olive oil?
Paul [167]

Answer:

1.3 mL

Explanation:

First, get the density of the olive oil, which is 0.917 kg/mL. Then divide the mass by the density:

1.2kg/0.917kg/mL= 1.3086150491 mL. The kg cancel out, leaving us with mL.

It should have 2 significant figures, because 1.2kg has 2 and we are dividing.

1. Which liquid sample is a pure substance?
IRISSAK [1]

The whole Activity , poem and paragraph is missing in the question.

Answer:

(1) Liquid A

(2) Solid A

Explanation:

Using this part of the given poem

Substances and mixtures behave differently,

During boiling and melting most especially

Boiling point of substance is fixed while mixture is not

Substance melts completely but mixture does not

The boiling point of the Pure substance remain fixed after reaching its boiling point this is shown by Liquid A

Solid A is melting completely so Solid A is a pure substance.

What is the mass of a sample of NH3 containing 6.3 × 1024 molecules of NH3?
quester [9]

Answer:

178 grams

Explanation:

<em>It is known that 1.0 mole of a compound contains Avogadro's number of molecules (6.022 x 10²³).</em>

<em><u>Using cross multiplication:</u></em>

1.0 mol contains → 6.022 x 10²³ molecules.

??? mol contains → 6.3 x 10²⁴ molecules.

∴ The no. of moles of (6.3 x 10²⁴ molecules) of NH₃ = (1.0 mol)(6.3 x 10²⁴ molecules)/(6.022 x 10²³ molecules) = 10.46 mol.

<em>∴ The no. of grams of NH₃ present = no. of moles x molar mass</em> = (10.46 mol)(17.0 g/mol) = <em>177.8 g ≅ 178 g.</em>
