If the gas could took a hemispherical shape, what circular surface area would the gas cover?
chemistry
To determine the circular surface area that the gas would cover if it took a hemispherical shape, you would need to use the formula for the surface area of a hemisphere.
The surface area of a sphere is given by the formula:
A = 4πr^2
However, since we are dealing with only half of a sphere (a hemisphere) in this case, we need to divide the surface area in half.
Therefore, the surface area of a hemisphere is given by the formula:
A = 2πr^2
Where A is the surface area and r is the radius of the hemisphere.
To find the circular surface area that the gas would cover, you simply need to substitute the appropriate value for the radius into the formula and calculate the result.
