Answer:

(A) The work done by the system is -101.325J

(B) The workdone by the system is -90.75J

Explanation:

(A) Workdone = -PΔV

Given that A = 100cm2 = 0.01m2

distance d = 10cm = 0.1m

ΔV= Area × distance

ΔV= 0.01 ×0.1

ΔV = 0.001m3

P= external pressure = 1atm = 101325Pa

Workdone = -0.001 × 101325

W= - 101.325Pa m3

1Pam3 = 1J

Therefore W = - 101.325J

The work done on the system is -101.325J

(B) Workdone = -PΔV

Given that A = 50cm2 = 0.005m2

distance d = 15cm = 0.15m

ΔV= Area × distance

ΔV= 0.005×0.15

ΔV = 0.00075m3

P=121kPa = 121000Pa

W= - 121000 × 0.00075

W= -90.75Pa m3

1Pam3 = 1J

W = - 90.75J

The woekdone by the system is -90.75J

Only one isotope of this element occurs in nature. one atom of this isotope has a mass of 9.123 ✕ 10-23 g. identify the element
o-na [289]

The atom has only one isotope which means 100 % of same atom is present in nature. The atomic mass of an element is the number of times an atom of that element is heavier than an atom of carbon taken as 12. Mass of one atom of that isotope is 9.123 ✕ 10⁻²³ g, so mass of one mole of atom that is Avogadro's number of atom is 6.023 X 10²³  X 9.123 X 10⁻²³ g=54.94 g = 55 g (approximate).

So, the atom having atomic mass 55 will be Cesium (Cs). Only one isotope of Cesium is stable in nature.

a) (1 point) Build anthracene, optimize its geometry and examine its structure. Describe its shape. b) (1 point) Measure the C-C
oksano4ka [1.4K]

Answer:

a) The structure of anthracene is planar with all the pi electrons delocalized in the structure to maintain aromaticity.

b) The C-C bond length in anthracene is about 140 pm with all the bond lengths being similar to each other.

The standard C-C bond length is 154 pm while standard C=C bond is about 134 pm. Therefore the bond length in anthracene is smaller than standard C-C bond length and longer than standard C=C bond length. This can be explained from the fact that the C-C bonds in anthracene has be mixed characteristics of single and double bond because of the delocalization of pi electrons over the whole structure. As a result, they are neither fully single nor fully double bond in nature. Hence the observed bond lengths.

c) This molecule is not flat. The N-atom is sp3 hybridized here and the H-atom attached to N will remain out of plane.

A semipermeable membrane separates two solutions of different concentrations. Identify which of the following statements are cor
GenaCL600 [577]

Answer:

The correct options are A, and C.

Explanation:

Osmosis: It is defined as the movement of solvent with the help of selectively semipermeable membrane into a region of where high solute concentration is present to equalize the concentration of solute on the both compartments.

Reverse osmosis: It is defined as the movement of the high concentration solvent is forced onto the lighter concentration side with the help of mechanical pressure.
