If you were given a sample of a cotton ball and a glass stirring rod with identical mass (ex: 5.0 g), which sample would contain
Anarel [2989]

Answer:

The sample with more oxygen atoms is a glass stirring rod.

Explanation:

Referring to the periodic table,

the glass stirring rod is composed of Silicon dioxide whereas the cotton ball is made of cellulose.

The molar mass of the glass stirring rod SiO_{2} = 60.08 grams/mole.

The molar mass of the cotton ball C_{6} H_{10}O_{5} = 162.09 grams/mole.

Considering the total number of molecules for oxygen is 32,

therefore,

In the glass stirring rod,

oxygen atoms contained in 5g = \frac{32}{60.07} \times 5

= 2.66 g of oxygen

= \frac{1}{16} \times 2.66

= 0.16625 moles

= 0.16625 x 6.023\times 10^{23}

= 1.001 \times10^{23} atoms

In the cotton ball,

oxygen atoms contained in 5g = \frac{80}{162.09} \times 5

= 2.467 g of oxygen

= \frac{1}{16} \times 2.467

= 0.15418 moles

= 0.15418 \times 6.023 \times 10^{23}

= 0.928 \\ \times10^{23}

Thus, the glass stirring rod has a greater quantity of oxygen atoms.

A flexible container has 5.00 L of nitrogen gas at 298 K. If the temperature is increased to 333K, what will the new volume of t
lorasvet [2795]

Givens

  • V1 = 5.00 L
  • V2 =?
  • T1 = 298 K
  • T2 = 333 K

Formula

V1/T1 = V2/T2

Note: This will be applicable only if the pressure remains constant.

Solution

5.00L / 298 K = x / 333 K. Multiply both sides by 333 K.

5.00 * 333 / 298 = x 333/ 333

V2 = 5.59 L

The [H3O+] in a solution is increased to twice the original concentration. Which change could occur in the pH? 2.0 to 4.0 1.7 to
KiRa [2933]
Answer: second option: 1.70 to 1.40

Explanation:

1) pH is defined using the formula pH = - log [H₃O⁺]

2) Given that the initial concentration is x and after doubling it becomes 2x, we calculate:

pHi = - logx
pHf = - log 2x = - log 2 - logx

Thus, pHf - pHi = - log2 - logx - (- logx) = - log2 ≈ - 0.30

⇒ pHi - pHf = 0.30, indicating that the final pH (with twice the hydronium ions) is 0.30 lower than the starting pH.

3) The only option that indicates a 0.30 decline in pH is the second one: from 1.70 to 1.40. Therefore, that is the correct choice.

eduard [2782]

Answer: These celestial bodies are composed of rock or gas and are named after ancient deities.

Explanation:

Earth is the THIRD planet from the Sun and is capable of sustaining life for various organisms.

VENUS ranks as the second planet in our solar system and derives its name from the Roman goddess associated with love and beauty.

MARS, the fourth planet, gets its name from the Roman goddess of war.

Hence, Venus and Mars are NEIGHBORS to EARTH.
