The quantity which is equivalent to the product of the absolute index of refraction of water and the speed of light in water system is the speed of light in vacuum.

<h3>What is the speed of light?</h3>

Speed of light is the rate of speed though the light travels. To find the speed of light in any medium, the following formula is used.

v=\dfrac{c}{n}

Here, (n) is the index of reaction and (c) is the speed of light in the vacuum. The speed of light in the vacuum is almost equal to the 3.0×10⁸ m/s.

Now the quantity which is equivalent to the product of the absolute index of refraction of water and the speed of light in water has to be find out.

The above formula can be written as,

v=\dfrac{c}{n}\\vn=c\\c=vn

Here, the product of index of refraction and speed of light is equal to the speed of light in vacuum. This will be true for water as well.

Thus, the quantity which is equivalent to the product of the absolute index of refraction of water and the speed of light in water system is the speed of light in vacuum.

Ethene is converted to ethane by the reaction flows into a catalytic reactor at 25.0 atm and 250.°C with a flow rate of 1050. L/
Sphinxa [80]

Answer : The percent yield of the reaction is, 76.34 %

Explanation : Given,

Pressure of C_2H_4 and H_2 = 25.0 atm

Temperature of C_2H_4 and H_2 = 250^oC=273+250=523K

Volume of C_2H_4 = 1050 L per min

Volume of H_2 = 1550 L per min

R = gas constant = 0.0821 L.atm/mole.K

Molar mass of C_2H_6 = 30 g/mole

First we have to calculate the moles of C_2H_4 and H_2 by using ideal gas equation.

For C_2H_4 :

PV=nRT\\\\n=\frac{PV}{RT}

n=\frac{PV}{RT}=\frac{(25atm)\times (1050L)}{(0.0821L.atm/mole.K)\times (523K)}

n=611.34moles

For H_2 :

PV=nRT\\\\n=\frac{PV}{RT}

n=\frac{PV}{RT}=\frac{(25atm)\times (1550L)}{(0.0821L.atm/mole.K)\times (523K)}

n=902.46moles

Now we have to calculate the limiting and excess reagent.

The balanced chemical reaction is,

C_2H_4+H_2\rightarrow C_2H_6

From the balanced reaction we conclude that

As, 1 mole of C_2H_4 react with 1 mole of H_2

So, 611.34 mole of C_2H_4 react with 611.34 mole of H_2

From this we conclude that, H_2 is an excess reagent because the given moles are greater than the required moles and C_2H_4 is a limiting reagent and it limits the formation of product.

Now we have to calculate the moles of C_2H_6.

As, 1 mole of C_2H_4 react to give 1 mole of C_2H_6

As, 611.34 mole of C_2H_4 react to give 611.34 mole of C_2H_6

Now we have to calculate the mass of C_2H_6.

\text{Mass of }C_2H_6=\text{Moles of }C_2H_6\times \text{Molar mass of }C_2H_6

\text{Mass of }C_2H_6=(611.34mole)\times (30g/mole)=18340.2g

The theoretical yield of C_2H_6 = 18340.2 g

The actual yield of C_2H_6 = 14.0 kg = 14000 g      (1 kg = 1000 g)

Now we have to calculate the percent yield of C_2H_6

\%\text{ yield of }C_2H_6=\frac{\text{Actual yield of }C_2H_6}{\text{Theoretical yield of }C_2H_6}\times 100=\frac{14000g}{18340.2g}\times 100=76.34\%

Therefore, the percent yield of the reaction is, 76.34 %

Gasoline has a density of 0.749 g/ml. how many pounds does 19.2 gallons of gasoline weigh?
Svetradugi [14.3K]
A good first step is writing the amount in terms of ml. 

19.2 gallons = 72.68 L = 72680 ml

that would mean it weighs 0.749*720680g = 54437.32ml = 54.437 L

hope that helps :)

Water and minerals move up the xylem because of a vacuum created by _____.
Galina-37 [17]

Answer:

The right answer is B) evaporation

Explanation:

Transpiration occurs at the leaf surface which is the loss of water due to the evaporation. This phenomenon works as trigger of water and mineral movement above to the xylem. Due to the evaporation of water at the leaf, negative pressure is created at the surface of leaf. Tension is produced which results in the pull of water from roots up to the xylem vessels.

If Kp = 0.15, which statement is true of the reaction mixture before any reaction occurs?
Fiesta28 [93]
The given sentence is part of a longer question.

I found this question with the same sentence. So, I will help you using this question:

For the reaction N2O4<span>(g) ⇄ 2NO</span>2(g), a reaction mixture at a certain temperature initially contains both N2O4 and NO2 in their standard states (meaning they are gases with a pressure of 1 atm<span>).  If </span>Kp = 0.15, which statement is true of the reaction mixture before any reaction occurs?


(a) Q = K<span>;   The reaction </span>is at equilibrium.
(b) Q < K<span>;   The reaction </span>will proceed to the right.
(c) Q > K<span>;   The reaction </span>will proceed to the left.

The answer is the option (c) Q > K<span>; The reaction will proceed to the </span>left, since Qp<span> = </span>1<span>, and 1 > 0.15.</span>
Explanation:

Kp is the equilibrium constant in term of the partial pressures of the gases.

Q is the reaction quotient. It is a measure of the progress of a chemical reaction.

The reaction quotient has the same form of the equilibrium constant but using the concentrations or partial pressures at any moment.

At equilibrium both Kp and Q are equal. Q = Kp

If Q < Kp then the reaction will go to the right (forward reaction) trying to reach the equilibrium,

If Q > Kp then the reaction will go to the left (reverse reaction) trying to reach the equilibrium.

Here, the state is that both pressures are 1 atm, so Q = (1)^2 / 1 = 1.

Since, Q = 1 and Kp = 0.15, Q > Kp and the reaction will proceed to the left.
