Why is it necessary to use a nonvolatile liquid in a barometer or manometer? A volatile liquid evaporates easily, which would produce some gas pressure in enclosed volumes, thus affecting the measurements. A non-volatile liquid can become a solid, similar to ice freezing. A non-volatile liquid evaporates easily, which would produce some gas pressure in enclosed volumes, thus affecting the measurements. A volatile liquid does not evaporate easily, which would produce 0 gas pressure in enclosed volumes.

An active (metal) electrode was found to gain mass as the oxidation-reduction reaction was allowed to proceed. Was the electrode an anode or a cathode?
Active electrodes participate in the oxidation-reduction reaction. Since metals form cations, the electrode would gain mass if metal ions in solution were reduced to metal atoms and deposited on the electrode. Reduction occurs at the cathode.
Why do batteries go dead but fuel cells do not? All of these are reasons batteries go dead but fuel cells do not. Battery reaction byproducts accumulate and interfere with the reaction. Because a fuel cell is constantly resupplied with reactants and products are expelled, it can continue to function as long as reagents are supplied. None of these are reasons batteries go dead but fuel cells do not. Batteries are self-contained and have a limited supply of reagents to expend before going dead.
All of these are reasons batteries go dead but fuel cells do not.

How does the boiling of a liquid differ from its evaporation? At the boiling point, the vapor pressure of the liquid is the same as the atmospheric pressure.

The ionization constant for water (Kw) is 2.9 × 10-14 at 40 °C. Calculate the pH, and pOH for pure water at 40 °C. pH = pOH = -log(1.70 × 10-6) = 6.769 = 6.77 pH = pOH = -log(1.70 × 10-7) = 6.769 = 6.77 pH = pOH = -log(1.70 × 10-8) = 6.769 = 6.77 pH = pOH = -log(1.70 × 10-5) = 6.769 = 6.77
pH = pOH = -log(1.70 × 10-7) = 6.769 = 6.77
How does the carbon-atom hybridization change when polyethylene is prepared from ethylene? The sp3 hybridization of ethylene changes to sp2 in polyethylene because all the bondsbecome single sigma bonds. The sp hybridization of ethylene changes to sp3 in polyethylene because all the bondsbecome single sigma bonds. The sp2 hybridization of ethylene changes to sp3 in polyethylene because all the bondsbecome single sigma bonds. The sp hybridization of ethylene changes to sp2 in polyethylene because all the bondsbecome single sigma bonds.
the sp2 hybridization of ethylene changes to sp3 in polyethylene because all the bondsbecome single sigma bonds.
An effect arises only when the number of moles of gaseous reactants in the equation that describes the equilibrium reaction differs from the number of moles of gaseous products. As the volume of a gaseous system decreases, the gases become compressed and the total number of molecules per unit volume increases, producing greater molar concentrations. This change in concentration represents a stress on the system, and the system will act to remove the stress, if possible. The pressure change will have an effect on the equilibrium only if the number of moles of gaseous reactants differs from the number of moles of gaseous products, shifting the condition of equilibrium to the side with the fewer number of moles.
true
Heat is added to boiling water. The temperature of the boiling water does not change. Is this description True (accurate) or False? The heat increases the kinetic energy of a limited number of molecules in the liquid water so that they have enough energy to escape into the gas phase. The escape of these molecules requires the additional energy be used to overcome intermolecular attractive forces in the liquid, and so the temperature of the remaining liquid does not increase. The amount of liquid water changes (decreases) as the additional heat causes some to change to a gas.
true
One explanation for the observations that ethanol, C2H5OH, is completely miscible with water and that ethanethiol, C2H5SH, is soluble only to the extent of 1.5 g per 100 mL of water could be that hydrogen bonds between water and C2H5OH are much stronger than the intermolecular attractions between water and C2H5SH.
true
The enthalpy of vaporization of water is larger than its enthalpy of fusion
true
The two types of reactions are distinguished by the arrow used in the equation: is used for equilibria reactions and is used for "one-way" reactions.

What is not a difference between ΔG and ΔG for a chemical change? None of these ΔG°: the (Gibbs) free energy change for a reaction in which the reagents and products are in their standard states (1 bar or 1 atm for gases, 1 M for solutions) at a specified temperature. ΔG: the (Gibbs) free energy change for any reaction under any set of conditions. ΔG: the (Gibbs) free energy change for any reaction under a particular set of conditions.
