Answer:

See explanation.

Explanation:

Are you literally posting your entire you chemistry homework on this site, one question at a time? Anyways, the heat death refers to the second law of thermodynamics and entropy. Heat is constantly flowing from warmer to cooler objects and never the other way around. This heat flow increases entropy, which is constantly increasing. The universe will eventually disperse all of its heat energy away to continuously increase entropy and reach a limit as the temperature reaches 0 K at which point all molecular motion will cease and so will the life of the universe.

Seawater is typically 3.5% salt and has a density of 1.03 g/mL. How many grams of salt would be needed to prepare enough seawate

Bas_tet [7]

Answer:

Amount of salt needed is around 2.3*10³ g

Explanation:

The salt content in sea water = 3.5 %

This implies that there is 3.5 g salt in 100 g sea water

Density of seawater = 1.03 g/ml

Volume of seawater = volume of tank = 62.5 L = 62500 ml

Therefore, the amount of seawater required is:

$=Density*Volume = 1.03g/ml*62500ml = 6.44*10^{4} g$

The amount of salt needed for the calculated amount of seawater is:

$=\frac{6.44*10^{4}g\ water*3.5g\ salt }{100g\ water} =2254 g =2.3*10^{3} g$
