a 20.0 L container of helium used to fill balloons is at a pressure of 150 atm and a temperature is 30.0 C. How many balloons can be filled to 5.0 L, if the temperature is 22 C and the atmospheric pressure is 1.05 atm?

Answers

The number of balloons that can be filled by the container of helium is 380.

To calculate the number of balloons that can be filled, we use the formula below.

Formula:

N = PVT'/P'V'T........... Equation 1\

Where:

N = Amount of balloons that can be filled by the containerP = Pressure of helium in the containerV = Volume of helium the containerT = Temperature of the containerP' = Pressure of the balloonV' = Volume of the balloonT' = Temperature of the balloon.

From the question,

Given:

P = 150 atmV = 20 LT = 30 °C = 203 KP' = 1.05 atmV' = 5 LT' = 22 °C  = 295 K

Substitute these values into equation 1

N = (150×20×295)/(5×1.05×203)N = 380.4 balloonsN ≈ 380 balloons.

Hence, the number of balloons that can be filled by the container of helium is 380.

Explanation:

A chemist reacted 11.50 grams of sodium metal with an excess amount of chlorine gas. The chemical reaction that occurred is shown.

Na + Cl2 → NaCl

If the percentage yield of the reaction is 85%, what is the actual yield? Show your work, including the use of stoichiometric calculations and conversion factors.

Answers

Actual yield is the definite mass of the product obtained from the reaction. The actual yield of the reaction is 24.83 gms.

What is the percentage yield?

Percentage yield is the proportion of the actual to the theoretical yield. The formula is given as,

% yield = Actual yield ÷ Theoretical yield × 100

The balanced chemical reaction is given as:

2 Na + Cl₂ → 2NaCl

From the reaction:

2 × 23 Na = 2 × 58.44 gm of NaCl

If, 1 gm of Na will produce = (2 × 58.44) ÷ (2 × 23)

Then, 11.50 gms sodium will produce, (2 × 58.44) ÷ (2× 23) × 11.50

= 29.22 g

So, the actual yield is calculated as:

= % yield × Theoretical yield ÷ 100

= 85 × 29.22 ÷ 100

= 24.83 g

Therefore, the actual yield of the reaction is 24.83 gms.

0. Calculate the amount of heat absorbed when 5.50 g of aluminum is heated from
25.0°C to 95.0°C. The specific heat of aluminum is 0.897 J/g °C).

Answers

Answer:

34.5J

Explanation:

Amount of Heat(Q) = mc∆T

where m (mass of aluminum) = 5.50g

c (specific heat capacity of aluminum) = 0.897J/g°C and ∆T = 95.0°C - 25.0°C = 70.0°C

Q = 5.50x 0.897x 70.0

= 34.5354J = 34.5J

The amount of heat absorbed when 5.50 g of aluminum is heated from 25.0°C to 95.0°C is 34.5 J.

What is heat?

Heat is defined as a form of the energy transmitted from one body to another as a result of a temperature difference.

It can also be defined as the potential energy stored in the bonds that hold the object's particles together.

Heat absorption is defined as absorption of heat without increasing the temperature at the certain point.

Amount of heat = mcΔT

Where m = 5.50g

           c = 0.897 J/g °C

           ΔT =  95.0°C - 25.0°C

                 = 70.0°C

So, amount of heat = 5.50 x 0.897 x 70.0

                                = 34.5354 J = 34.5 J

Thus, the amount of heat absorbed when 5.50 g of aluminum is heated from 25.0°C to 95.0°C is 34.5 J.

How many molecules of hydrogen fluoride (HF) are in (8.5x10^-2) moles of hydrogen fluoride (HF)?

Answers

Avogadro's numbers are used to convert the moles, atoms, and molecules. There are 51.17 × 10²¹ molecules in 8.5 x 10⁻² moles of HF.

What is Avogadro's number?

Avogadro's number converts the moles into molecules with the help of the value of the Avogadro's number as 6.02 x 10²³.

We know that 1 mole of HF has 6.02 x 10²³ molecules

Then, 8.5 x 10⁻² moles of HF will have:

(8.5 x 10⁻²) × 6.02 x 10²³ = 51.17 × 10²¹ molecules.

At constant temperature, the pressure of a gas is inversely proportional to its volume.

Mathematically; P1V1 = P2V2 where P1 = initial pressure, P2 = final pressure, V1 = initial temperature, and V2 - final temperature.

In this case, V1 = 226 [tex]cm^3[/tex],  P2 = 2P1

Answers

The river will deposit sediment along the inside of a bend in the river. This deposition causes the inside of the curve to become shallower and move farther inward.

What are Meandering Rivers ?

Rivers flowing over gently sloping ground begin to curve back and forth across the landscape. These are called meandering rivers.

Meandering rivers erode sediment Larry from the outer curve of each meander bend and deposit it on an inner curve further down stream.

This causes individual meanders to grow larger and larger over time.

Meandering river channels are asymmetrical. The deepest part of the channel is on the outside of each bend. The water flows faster in these deeper sections and erodes material from the river bank.

The water flows more slowly in the shallow areas near the inside of each bend. The slower water can't carry as much sediment and deposits its load on a series of point bars.

Thus  the settling of sediment will make the stream steeper.
