Calculate the % composition of the unknown liquid using your most precise result. It is a mixture of ethanol (D[ETOH] = 0.7890 g

/mL) and water. We will assume the temperature was 20.0 °C in the lab and the density of water was D[H2O] = 0.9982 g/mL.

% composition of ethanol = 34.51%

% composition of water  = 65.49%

<h3>What is density?</h3>

A material's density is defined as its mass per unit volume.

Given data:

The density of ethanol = 0.7890 g/mL

The density of water = 0.9982 g/mL

The density of mixture = 0.926 g/mL

Let the % composition of ethanol = x

Let the % composition of water = 100-x

Now density of the mixture

\frac{Mass}{Volume}

Mass = \frac{percent  \;of  \;ethanol  \;X  \;density  \;of  \;ethanol  \;+  \\ \;percent  \;of  \;water X  \;density  \;of  \;water}{100}

0.926 = \frac{x X  0.7890 g/mL  \;+  (100-x) X  0.9982 g/mL}{100}

x= 34.51 %

Hence,

% composition of ethanol = 34.51%

% composition of water = 65.49%

Which of the following are not single-displacement reactions?
Goshia [24]

Answer:

\boxed{\text{B and C }}

Explanation:

In a single-displacement reaction, one element exchanges partners with another element in a compound.

\textbf{A. } \rm Fe + 2HCl \longrightarrow FeCl_2 + H_2

This is a single-displacement reaction, because the element Fe exchanges partners with H in HCl.

\textbf{B. } \rm KOH + HNO_3 \longrightarrow H_2O + KNO_3

This is not a single-displacement reaction, because it is a reaction between two compounds.

This is a double displacement reaction in which the K⁺ and H⁺ cations change partners with the anions.

\textbf{C. } \rm Na_2S + 2HCl \longrightarrow 2NaCl + H_2S

This is not a single-displacement reaction. It is another double displacement reaction, in which the Na⁺ and H⁺ cations change partners with the anions.

\textbf{D. } \rm Ca + 2HOH \longrightarrow Ca(OH)_2 + H_2

This is a single-displacement reaction, because the element Ca exchanges partners with H in H₂O.

\boxed{\textbf{B and C }} are not single-displacement reactions.

Stephanie was on medication for a cough when she was tested for alcohol levels using the PBT. Though she did not consume much al
jasenka [17]

Answer:

The reason why Stephanie -who does not consume alcohol but was medicated for coughing- had a high reading when she had her preliminary breath test (PBT) is because the medication contained molecules similar to ethanol (option C).

Explanation:

Breath alcohol content (BAC) is a measure that is performed through the use of special devices, such as the brethalizer, an analyzer for detecting blood alcohol in drivers. Ethanol is a volatile product that, when found in the blood, is partially eliminated by the airways.

<u>The use of certain types of medications may cause a high reading on the breathalyzer because they contain ethanol</u>. This is likely to have happened to Stephanie who was using a cough medicine -which usually has a low ethanol content- and got a positive reading on the breathalyzer.

Imagine you leave a bottle of something toxic to humans open overnight in a sealed laboratory.
IgorC [24]

Answer:

Argument: It is not Safe

Further support to the argument is given below.

Explanation:

Solution:

Argument: It is not Safe

First of all, we all know the ideal gas law:

PV = nRT

And the Boyle's Law states that , if the pressure is increased then, volume will decrease. and if the volume is increased then pressure will decrease.

V is inversely proportional to Pressure of the gas.

So, in this case, Let's suppose we have toxic solution of methyl alcohol in the bottle which is tightly closed. It means pressure in the bottle is high, hence the volume is less.

If in this scenario someone, leave the bottle open in the laboratory and as it is given that the level of solution will drastically decrease. It means it is volatile in nature and is converted into gaseous form and we know now that the open bottle has now less pressure. Hence the volume of the gas will be higher and now it can spread to every corner of the laboratory. And it is very dangerous.
