At higher elevations, the boiling point of water decreases, due to the decrease in atmospheric pressure. As a result, what could

be said about hard boiling an egg?a.
At higher elevations, it would take less time to hard boil an egg, because there is less atmospheric pressure.
b.
At higher elevations, it would take longer to hard boil an egg, because there is a lower boiling point, so the egg is boiling in water at a lower temperature.
c.
At higher elevations, it would take less time to hard boil an egg, because there is a lower boiling point. Therefore it would take less time to achieve the boiling point.
d.
At higher elevations, it would take longer to hard boil an egg, because it would take longer to achieve the boiling point.

When we say decrease in boiling point, that means, we achieve boiling at a more lower temperature (lower than 100deg C). This is due to the lower atmospheric pressure. Boiling happens when the vapor pressure is equal the atmospheric pressure. Lower atmospheric pressure takes lower temperature for vapor pressure to equate with the atmospheric pressure. The answer here is letter B. 
At higher elevations, it would take longer to hard boil an egg, because there is a lower boiling point, so the egg is boiling in water at a lower temperature.

Answer:

The fraction of energy used to  increase the internal energy of the gas is 0.715

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Cv for nitrogen gas = 20.8 J/K*mol

Cp for nitrogen gas = 29.1 J/K*mol

Step 2:

At a constant volume, all the  heat will increase the internal energy of the gas.

At constant pressure, the gas expands and does work., if the volume changes.

Cp= Cv + R

⇒The value needed to change the internal energy is shown by Cv

⇒The work is given by Cp

To find what fraction of the energy is used to increase the internal energy of the gas, we have to calculate the value of Cv/Cp

Cv/Cp = 20.8 J/K*mol / 29.1 J/K*mol

Cv/Cp = 0.715

The fraction of energy used to  increase the internal energy of the gas is 0.715

joja [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

Resonance structure occurs in an organic compound that undergoes resonance effects. This resonance effect is sometimes called the mesomeric effect helps to increases the stability of organic compounds that have alternating single bonds and double bonds.

The second resonance structure diagram for the ion given in the question can be found in the attached diagram below.

Find the mass in grams of 1.40x10^23 molecules of n2
mina [271]
<span>Avogadro's number represents the number of units in one mole of any substance. This has the value of 6.022 x 10^23 units / mole. This number can be used to convert the number of atoms or molecules into number of moles. We calculate as follows:

</span>1.40x10^23 molecules of N2 ( 1 mol / 6.022 x 10^23 molecules ) ( 28.02 g / mol ) = 6.51 g N2
