How do CFC’s illustrate that technical advances can be a “double-edged” sword?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

CFC’s illustrate that technical advances can be a “double-edged” sword as CFC's were made for the advantages but soon or later it came as a disadvantage for environment.

CFC's was discovered with many advantages such as they are stable, non-corrosive, and replacement of harmful ammonia used in refrigerators  and air conditioning systems. But soon it is also discovered that CFC's are destroying  the upper atmosphere layer called ozone, which is a very big disadvantage for us. CFCs are major contributor  to global warming after carbon dioxide.

Hence, it proves that CFC’s shows how technological advancement can be “double-edged” sword.

If 1 g of radium-226 has an activity of 1 curie, what is the activity of 2 g of radium-226? 1 curie 2 curies 4 curies 10 curies

Answers

Answer:

2 curies

Explanation:

This is actually pretty easy to explain.

The Radium-226 which is an isotope of the radium, have an activity of curie. This is basically used in radioactivity of certain elements.

As in both cases we have Radium -226 and we are only varying the mass of the Radium, then, we can just do a rule of 3 to calculate this:

1 g Ra-226 --------> 1 Curie

2 g Ra-226 -------->  X Curie

Solving for X:

X = 2 g * 1 Curie / 1 g

X = 2 Curies.

You can also see this by taking 2 grams of Ra per separate. On one side you have 1 g of Ra-226 and on the other side, you have another 1 g of Ra-226. Both have 1 Cury of activity. If you put both on the same side, you will have 1 Cury of 1 isotope plus 1 cury of the other isotope, final result? 2 curies.

A cylinder of an ideal gas contains 1.2 moles of gas and occupies a volume of 5.0L. If 0.5 moles of a second gas are added to the cylinder, and the cylinder is allowed to expand until it reaches the same temperature and pressure as before, what is the final volume of gas, in liters, that occupies the cylinder?

Answers

Answer:

7.08 L

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Initial mole (n₁) = 1.2 moles

Initial volume (V₁) = 5 L

Final mole (n₂) = 1.2 + 0.5 = 1.7 moles

Final volume (V₂) =?

From ideal gas equation,

PV = nRT

Divide both by n

PV / n = RT

Divide both side by P

V / n = RT/P

RT/P => constant

Therefore,

V₁ / n₁ = V₂ / n₂

With the above formula i.e

V₁/n₁ = V₂/n₂

We can obtain the final volume of the gas as follow:

Initial mole (n₁) = 1.2 moles

Initial volume (V₁) = 5 L

Final mole (n₂) = 1.7 moles

Final volume (V₂) =?

V₁/n₁ = V₂/n₂

5 / 1.2 = V₂ / 1.7

Cross multiply

5 × 1.7 = 1.2 × V₂

8.5 = 1.2 × V₂

Divide both side by 1.2

V₂ = 8.5 / 1.2

V₂ = 7.08 L

Therefore, the final volume of the gas is 7.08 L

Use the half-reaction method to balance the following equations :
MnO4- + Br- = MnO2 + BrO3- (Acidic Solution )

Answers

Br- + 2MnO4- + 2H+ → BrO3- + 2MnO2 + H2O

Further explanation

Given

MnO4- + Br- = MnO2 + BrO3-

Required

The half-reaction

Solution

In acidic conditions :

1. Add the coefficient

2. Equalization O atoms (add H₂O) on the O-deficient side.  

3. Equalization H atoms (add H⁺ ) on the H -deficient side.  .  

4. Equalization of charge (add electrons (e) )

5. Equalizing the number of electrons and then adding the two half -reactions together

Oxidation : Br- → BrO3-  

Reduction : MnO4- → MnO2

Equalization O atoms

Br- + 3H2O → BrO3-  

MnO4- → MnO2 + 2H2O

Equalization H atoms

Br- + 3H2O → BrO3- + 6H+  

MnO4- + 4H+ → MnO2 + 2H2O

Equalization of charge

Br- + 3H2O → BrO3- + 6H+ + 6e-         x1

MnO4- + 4H+ + 3e- → MnO2 + 2H2O x2

Equalizing the number of electrons and then adding the two half -reactions together

Br- + 3H2O → BrO3- + 6H+ + 6e-  

2MnO4- + 8H+ + 6e- → 2MnO2 + 4H2O

Br- + 2MnO4- + 3H2O + 8H+ + 6e- → BrO3- + 2MnO2 + 6H+ + 4H2O + 6e-

Br- + 2MnO4- + 2H+ → BrO3- + 2MnO2 + H2O

How much heat is released when 24.8 g of ch4 is burned in excess oxygen gas?

Answers

The given question is incomplete. The complete question is:

How much heat is produced when 24.8 g of [tex]CH_4[/tex] is burned in excess oxygen gas

Given: [tex]CH _4 +2O_2\rightarrow CO_2+2H_2O[/tex]  ΔH= −802 kJ.

Answer: 1243.1 kJ

Explanation:

Heat of combustion is the amount of heat released on complete combustion of 1 mole of substance.

Given :

Amount of heat released on combustion of  1 mole of methane = 802 kJ kJ/mol

According to avogadro's law, 1 mole of every substance occupies 22.4 L at NTP, weighs equal to the molecular mass and contains avogadro's number [tex]6.023\times 10^{23}[/tex] of particles.

1 mole of [tex]CH_4[/tex] weighs = 16 g  

Thus we can say:  

16 g of [tex]CH_4[/tex] on combustion releases heat = 802 kJ

Thus 24.8 g of [tex]CH_4[/tex] on combustion releases =[tex]\frac{802}{16}\times 24.8=1243.1kJ[/tex]

Thus heat released when 24.8 g of methane is burned in excess oxygen gas is 1243.1 kJ

P₁=1 atm

T₂=-100+273 = 173 K

Required

The final volume(V₂)

Solution

Charles's Law

[tex]\tt \dfrac{V_1}{T_1}=\dfrac{V_2}{T_2}[/tex]

Input the value :

37.9 grams of an unknown substance undergoes a temperature increase of
25.0*C after absorbing 969 J. What is the specific heat of the substance?

Answers

Answer:

1.023 J / g °C

Explanation:

m = 37.9 grams

ΔT = 25.0*C

H = 969 J

c = ?

The equation relating these equation is;

H = mcΔT

making c subject of formulae;

c = H / mΔT

c = 969 J / (37.9 g * 25.0*C)

Upon solving;

c = 1.023 J / g °C
