The answer is there is a one-to-one ratio of potassium ions to iodide ions.

Explanation :

- (K) belongs to Alkali metals in group (1A) that contains (1) electron in the outermost energy level, whereas, (I) is from halogens in group (7A) that contains (7) electron in the outermost energy level.

- To achieve stability, both atoms tend to reach the nearest noble state (outermost level occupies 8 electrons). Therefore, (K) loses its outer electron and gives it to (I) which now has a completely filled outer level and an ionic bond is formed between the two.

- The valency (number of electrons lost, gained or shared) of both atoms is equal ”monovalent” which means one-to-one ratio..

The human body is 0.0040% iron. How many milligrams of iron does a 165 pound person contain?​
Fofino [41]

Answer:

in a body of 165 pounds, the iron content is 2993.707 mg

Explanation:

  • % iron = 0.0040% = (mass iron / mass human) * 100

⇒ mass iron / mass human = 4 E-5

∴ mass human = 165 pounds

⇒ mass iron = 165 pounds * 4 E-5

⇒ mass iron = 6.6 E-3 pounds * ( 453.592 g/pound ) * ( 1000 mg/g )

⇒ mass iron = 2993.707 mg iron

What is the sequence of energy transformations that occur in a nuclear reactor? nuclear energy Right arrow. Mechanical energy Ri
Mademuasel [1]

Answer:

NUCLEAR ENERGY -----> MECHANICAL ENERGY -------> THERMAL ENERGY --------> ELECTRICAL ENERGY

Explanation:

In nuclear reactor, various energy transformations occur in order to generate electricity. Nuclear reactor converts the energy released from nuclear fission and the heat generated is removed from the reactor by a cooling system where steam is generated. The steam then drives a turbine which powers a generator to produce electricity.

A nuclear reactor is hence an equipment where nuclear chain reactions occur and control can be obtained. The nuclear reactor uses mostly uranium-235 and Plutonium-239. When these radioactive substances absorbs neutrons, they undergo nuclear fission causing the nucleus to split into two or more smaller compounds with  the release of kinetic energy a form of mechanical energy, gamma radiations and others.The kinetic energy is then harnessed in the equipment as heat (thermal energy) which is received by a cooling system and steam is generated. The steam can then power the generator from which electricity is obtained (electrical energy).

So therefore, in a nuclear reactor, the nuclear energy is transformed to mechanical energy and then thermal energy which powers the generation of the electrical energy.

Find the volume of a gas at STP, if its volume is 80.0 mL at 109 kPa and -12.5°C.​
exis [7]

Answer:

= 913.84 mL

Explanation:

Using the combined gas laws

P1V1/T1 = P2V2/T2

At standard temperature and pressure. the pressure is 10 kPa, while the temperature is 273 K.

V1 = 80.0 mL

P1 = 109 kPa

T1 = -12.5 + 273 = 260.5 K

P2 = 10 kPa

V2 = ?

T2 = 273 K

Therefore;

V2 = P1V1T2/P2T1

     = (109 kPa × 80 mL × 273 K)/(10 kPa× 260.5 K)

     <u>= 913.84 mL</u>

A tank of 0.1m3 volume contains air at 25∘C and 101.33 kPa. The tank is connected to a compressed-air line which supplies air at
Dmitriy789 [7]

Answer:

Amount of Energy = 23,467.9278J

Explanation:

Given

Cv = 5/2R

Cp = 7/2R wjere R = Boltzmann constant = 8.314

The energy balance in the tank is given as

∆U = Q + W

According to the first law of thermodynamics

In the question, it can be observed that the volume of the reactor is unaltered

So, dV = W = 0.

The Internal energy to keep the tank's constant temperature is given as

∆U = Cv((45°C) - (25°C))

∆U = Cv((45 + 273) - (25 + 273))

∆U = Cv(20)

∆U = 5/2 * 8.314 * 20

∆U = 415.7 J/mol

Before calculating the heat loss of the tank, we must first calculate the amount of moles of gas that entered the tank where P1 = 101.33 kPa

The Initial mole is calculated as

(P * V)/(R * T)

Where P = P1 = 101.33kPa = 101330Pa

V = Volume of Tank = 0.1m³

R = 8.314J/molK

T = Initial Temperature = 25 + 273 = 298K

So, n = (101330 * 0.1)/(8.314*298)

n = 4.089891232222

n = 4.089

Then we Calculate the final moles at P2 = 1500kPa = 1500000Pa

V = Volume of Tank = 0.1m³

R = 8.314J/molK

T = Initial Temperature = 25 + 273 = 298K

n = (1500000 * 0.1)/(8.314*298)

n = 60.54314465936812

n = 60.543

So, tue moles that entered the tank is ∆n

∆n = 60.543 - 4.089

∆n = 56.454

Amount of Energy is then calculated as:(∆n)(U)

Q = 415.7 * 56.454

Q = 23,467.9278J
