<h3>Answer:</h3>

B.  0.33 mol

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

We are given;

Gauge pressure, P = 61 kPa (but 1 atm = 101.325 kPa)

                               = 0.602 atm

Volume, V = 5.2 liters

Temperature, T = 32°C, but K = °C + 273.15

thus, T = 305.15 K

We are required to determine the number of moles of air.

We are going to use the concept of ideal gas equation.

  • According to the ideal gas equation, PV = nRT, where P is the pressure, V is the volume, R is the ideal gas constant, (0.082057 L.atm mol.K, n is the number of moles and T is the absolute temperature.
  • Therefore, to find the number of moles we replace the variables in the equation.
  • Note that the total ball pressure will be given by the sum of atmospheric pressure and the gauge
  • Therefore;
  • Total pressure = Atmospheric pressure + Gauge pressure  

       We know atmospheric pressure is 101.325 kPa or 1 atm

Total ball pressure = 1 atm + 0.602 atm

                               = 1.602 atm

That is;

PV = nRT

n = PV ÷ RT

therefore;

n = (1.602 atm× 5.2 L) ÷ (0.082057 × 305.15 K)

  = 0.3326 moles

  = 0.33 moles

Therefore, there are 0.33 moles of air in the ball.

The energy difference between the 5d and 6s sublevels in gold accounts for its color. Assuming this energy difference is about 2
sergejj [24]

Answer:

\lambda=459.1\times 10^{-7}\ m = 459.1 nm

This wavelength corresponds to yellow color and thus gold has warm yellow color.

Explanation:

Given that:- Energy = 2.7 eV

Energy in eV can be converted to energy in J as:

1 eV = 1.602 × 10⁻¹⁹ J

So, Energy = 2.7\times 1.602\times 10^{-19}\ J=4.33\times 10^{-19}\ J

Considering:-

E=\frac{h\times c}{\lambda}

Where,  

h is Plank's constant having value 6.626\times 10^{-34}\ Js

c is the speed of light having value 3\times 10^8\ m/s

\lambda is the wavelength of the light

So,  

4.33\times 10^{-19}=\frac{6.626\times 10^{-34}\times 3\times 10^8}{\lambda}

4.33\times \:10^{26}\times \lambda=1.99\times 10^{20}

\lambda=459.1\times 10^{-7}\ m = 459.1 nm

This wavelength corresponds to yellow color and thus gold has warm yellow color.

Using the following thermochemical equation, determine the amount of heat produced from the combustion of 24.3 g benzene (C6H6).
Anna007 [38]

Answer:

ΔH = -976.5 kJ

Explanation:

For the reaction given, there are 2 moles of benzene (C6H6). The heat of this reaction is -6278 kJ, which means that the combustion of 2 moles of benzene will lose 6278 kJ of heat. It is an exothermic reaction.

The value of ΔH, the enthalpy, is a way of measurement of the heat, and it depends on the quantity of the matter (number of moles).

So, 24.3 g of benzene has :

n = mass/ molar mass

n = 24.3/78.11

n = 0.311 moles

2 moles ------------ -6278 kJ

0.311 moles ----------- x

By a simple direct three rule:

2x = -1953.08

x = -976.5 kJ

timofeeve [1]

Answer:

The glow stick in hot water will be brighter

Explanation:

The glow stick in hot water will be brighter than the glow stick in cold water because the heat from the hot water will cause the molecules in the glow stick to move faster. The faster the molecules move in the glow stick, the sooner and brighter the reaction will be. The cold water will cause molecules to move slowly and it will take longer for the reaction to occur, which will also make it less bright.
