<span>This question relates to a common concept in Chemistry called "pressure volume work" which measures work done by gases when they compress or expand due to pressure. In equation form work = pressure x change in volume. In this situation work is expressed in L x ATM (atmosphere). First we calculate the change in volume by subtracting final volume by initial volume. In this case the volume doubled so it is 2v-v which equals v (or 240l). Next we convert bar to ATM. 1 bar is 100 kilopascale and 101.325 kilo pascals is 1 atmosphere, so in general 1 bar is usually considered to be 1 ATM. If we want to be very precise we would divide 100kilopasczle by 101kilopascalw per bar to get .987 ATM. In this example we will use 1 So work = 1 ATM x 240l = 240 ATM x l</span>

Dahasolnce [82]

Answer:

c. Bomb calorimetry

Explanation:

The hydrocarbons are combustibles, it means that they can react in a combustion reaction to release energy. To measure this amount of energy, it's necessary equipment that the reaction can be placed in a controlled way. The bomb calorimeter is this equipment, which is an adiabatic vessel, with water. The heat is calculated based on the increase in the water temperature.

The coffee-cup calorimetry is used to measure the heat of a dissolution reaction and the bomb manometry is used to measure the pressure.

The specific rotation of (R) carvone is (+) 61°. The optical rotation of a sample of a mixture of R &amp;S carvone is measured a
shusha [124]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

% optical purity = specific rotation of mixture/specific rotation of pure enantiomer  * 100/1

specific rotation of mixture = 23°

specific rotation of pure enantiomer = 61°

Hence;

% optical purity = 23/61 * 100 = 38 %

More abundant enantiomer = 100% - 38 % = 62%

Hence the pure  (S) carvone is (-) 62° is the more abundant enantiomer.

Enantiomeric excess = 62 - 50/50 * 100 = 24%

Hence

(R) - carvone  =  38 %

(S) - carvone = 62%

The salt water is a mixture because the salt and the water can be separated from each other. The dissolution of salt inside water is a physical change.  At the same time, the salt water is an electrolyte, because it conducts electricity. The electricity that was pass through the water led to the decomposition of the water; those bubbles that form inside the water represent oxygen gas which is a product of decomposition of water, therefore the electricity that was passed through the salt water has caused chemical change to occur inside the salt water.<span />

What is the difference between calorie and Calorie?
Blababa [14]

What is the difference between calories and kilocalories? The "calorie" we refer to in food is actually kilocalorie. One (1) kilocalorie is the same as one (1) Calorie (upper case C). A kilocalorie is the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of 1 kilogram of water one degree Celsius.
