Cool air can hold less water vapor than warm air. Apply this fact to explain why clouds and precipitation form on the windward side of the mountain.​

Answers

Answer 1

The pressure is directly proportional to temperature (when the pressure decrease the temperature decrease too). Because the air parcel expands so the molecules will not interact with each other as much.

The energy of the particles does not change but the fact that the particles are more spaced out means the parcel is cooler.

so now, the warmer a parcel of air the more water vapor it can hold. so, if a parcel of air cools it's ability to hold water vapor drops and if it drops to a low enough point that is when the water vapor will condense and turn back into liquid water. This is how clouds and precipitation form on the the windward side of the mountain.

Answer 2

Clouds and precipitation form on the windward side of the mountain due to change in temperature and pressure.

What is the relation between pressure and temperature?

Temperature of any substance is directly proportional to the pressure of that substance.

If the temperature of the wind increases so that winds get warmer and at the same time pressure of gas also increases, due to which particles will go far from each other. After this warm air rises up and cools down will condenses to form clouds, after this precipitate will falls on the windward side of the mountain.

Hence due to temperature and pressure precipitate will form on the windward side of the mountain.​

Answers

Answer:

A. 0.027 M

B. 0.0054 M

C. 31 cm³

Explanation:

A. Determination of the final concentration (Molarity)

Initial Volume (V₁) = 27 cm³

Initial concentration (C₁) = 0.150 M

Final volume (V₂) = 150 cm³

Final congratulation (C₂) =?

C₁V₁ = C₂V₂

0.150 × 27 = C₂ × 150

4.05 = C₂ × 150

Divide both side by 150

C₂ = 0.027 M

Thus, the final concentration of the solution is 0.027 M

B. Determination of the final concentration (Molarity)

Initial Volume (V₁) = 35.71 cm³

Initial concentration (C₁) = 0.0756 M

Final volume (V₂) = 500 cm³

Final congratulation (C₂) =?

C₁V₁ = C₂V₂

0.0756 × 35.71 = C₂ × 500

Divide both side by 500

C₂ = (0.0756 × 35.71) / 500

C₂ = 0.0054 M

Thus, the final concentration of the solution is 0.0054 M

C. Determination of the final volume.

Initial Volume (V₁) = 10 cm³

Initial concentration (C₁) = 0.155 M

Final congratulation (C₂) = 0.05 M

Final volume (V₂) =?

C₁V₁ = C₂V₂

0.155 × 10 = 0.05 × V₂

1.55 = 0.05 × V₂

Divide both side by 0.05

V₂ = 1.55 / 0.05

V₂ = 31 cm³

Thus, the final volume of the solution is 31 cm³

Explanation:

To solve this question we need first to find the equation of the equilibrium constant using the chemical eqiation:

The equilibrium constant expression is:

K = [Cl₂]²

Because equilibrium constant is defined as the ratio berween concentrationa of products over reactant powered to its reaction coefficient. But pure liquids as TiCl₄(l) and pure solids as Ti(s) are not taken into account

Now, we need to find the molar concentration of Cl₂, [Cl₂]:

Moles Cl₂ -Molar mass: 70.9g/mol-:

1.08g * (1mol / 70.9g) = 0.0152 moles / 5.2L =

P₁V₁ / T₁ = P₂V₂ / T₂

Where:

P₁ => is the initial pressure

V₁ => is the initial volume

T₁ => is the initial temperature

P₂ => is the final pressure

V₂ => is the final volume

T₂ => is the final temperature

Finally, we shall make T₁ the subject of the above expression. This can be obtained as follow:

P₁V₁ / T₁ = P₂V₂ / T₂

Cross multiply

T₁P₂V₂ = P₁V₁T₂

Divide both side by P₂V₂

T₁ = P₁V₁T₂ / P₂V₂

Thus, the formula for T₁ is:

T₁ = P₁V₁T₂ / P₂V₂

A 50.0-mL volume of 0.15 M HBr is titrated with 0.25 M KOH. Calculate the pH after the addition of 13.0 mL of KOH. Express your answer numerically.

Answers

Answer:

pH= 1.17

Explanation:

The neutralization reaction between HBr (acid) and KOH (base) is given by the following equation:

HBr(aq) + KOH(aq) → KBr(aq) + H₂O(l)

According to this equation, 1 mol of HBr reacts with 1 mol of KOH. Then, the moles can be expressed as the product between the molarity of the acid/base solution (M) and the volume in liters (V). So, we calculate the moles of acid and base:

Acid:

M(HBr) = 0.15 M = 0.15 mol/L

V(HBr) = 50.0 mL x 1 L/1000 mL = 0.05 L

moles of HBr = M(HBr) x V(HBr) = 0.15 mol/L x 0.05 L = 7.5 x 10⁻³ moles HBr

Base:

M(KOH) = 0.25 M = 0.25 mol/L

V(HBr) = 13.0 mL x 1 L/1000 mL = 0.013 L

moles of HBr = M(HBr) x V(HBr) = 0.25 mol/L x 0.013 L = 3.25 x 10⁻³ moles KOH

Now, we have: 7.5 x 10⁻³ moles HBr > 3.25 x 10⁻³ moles KOH

HBr is a strong acid and KOH is a strong base, so they are completely dissociated in water: the acid produces H⁺ ions and the base produces OH⁻ ions. So, the difference between the moles of HBr and the moles of KOH is equal to the moles of remaining H⁺ ions after neutralization:

moles of H⁺ = 7.5 x 10⁻³ moles HBr - 3.25 x 10⁻³ moles KOH = 4.25 x 10⁻³ moles H⁺

From the definition of pH:

pH = -log [H⁺]

The concentration of H⁺ ions is calculated from the moles of H⁺ divided into the total volume:

total volume = V(HBr) + V(KOH) = 0.05 L + 0.013 L = 0.063 L

[H⁺] = (moles of H⁺)/(total volume) = 4.25 x 10⁻³ moles/0.063 L = 0.067 M

Finally, we calculate the pH after neutralization:

pH = -log [H⁺] = -log (0.067) = 1.17

The volume of a gas is 18.6 L at 0.10 atm and 273 K. Calculate the pressure in
atms of the gas if its volume is changed to 1000 ml while the temperature remains
constant?

Answers

Answer:

1.86 atm

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

Initial volume (V₁) = 18.6 L

Initial pressure (P₁) = 0.10 atm

Final volume (V₂) = 1000 mL

Final pressure (P₂) =?

NOTE: The temperature is constant.

Next, we shall convert 1000 mL to L.

1000 mL = 1 L

Finally, we shall determine the final pressure of the gas as follow:

Initial volume (V₁) = 18.6 L

Initial pressure (P₁) = 0.10 atm

Final volume (V₂) = 1 L

Final pressure (P₂) =?

P₁V₁ = P₂V₂

18.6 × 0.10 = P₂ × 1

1.86 = P₂

P₂ = 1.86 atm

Thus, the final pressure of the gas is 1.86 atm

Explanation:

from PV = nRT => T = PV/RT

P = 1 atm

V = Final Volume

n = 3 moles

R = 0.08206 L·atm/mol·K

T = ?

T = 1 atm · V(Liters)/(3 moles)(0.08206L·atm/mol·K) = 4.062·V(final) Kelvin

The temperature of the balloon is 406 K

We'll begin by listing out what was given from the question. This is shown below:

Volume (V) = 100 L

Mole of oxygen (n) = 3 moles

Pressure (P) = 1 atm

Temperature (T) =?

We can obtain the temperature of the balloon by using the ideal gas equation as shown below:

PV = nRTNOTE:

P is the pressure.

V is the volume.

n is the number of mole

R is the gas constant (0.0821 atm.L/Kmol)

T is the temperature.

Applying the ideal gas equation, we have:

PV = nRT

1 × 100 = 3 × 0.0821 × T

100 = 0.2463 × T

Divide both side by 0.2463

T = 100 / 0.2463

T = 406 K

Therefore, the temperature of the balloon is 406 K

Your particular brand of coffee contains 100 mg of caffeine in that 200 mL cup. The partition coefficient of caffeine in dichloromethane/water is 9.0 (it is more soluble in the dichloromethane).

A). 1 x 200 mL extraction :

Let m be the mass of caffeine in the water

Mass of caffeine in [tex]$CH_2Cl_2$[/tex] = 100 - m

[tex]$\frac{\frac{100-m}{200}}{\frac{m}{200}} = 9.0$[/tex]

[tex]$= 10 m = 100$[/tex]

m = 10

Mass remaining in coffee = m =  10 mg

B). 2 x 100 mL extraction :

First extraction :

Let [tex]$m_1$[/tex] be the mass of caffeine in the water

Mass of caffeine in [tex]$CH_2Cl_2$[/tex] = [tex]$100-m_1$[/tex]

[tex]$\frac{\frac{100-m_1}{100}}{\frac{m_1}{200}} = 9.0$[/tex]

Mass remaining in coffee = [tex]$m_1$[/tex] =  18.18 mg

Second Extraction :

Let [tex]$m_2$[/tex] be the mass of caffeine in the water

Mass of caffeine in [tex]$CH_2Cl_2$[/tex] = [tex]$18.18-m_2$[/tex]

[tex]$\frac{\frac{18.18-m_2}{100}}{\frac{m_2}{200}} = 9.0$[/tex]
