What is the maximum vertical distance between the line y = x 2 and the parabola y = x2 for −1 ≤ x ≤ 2?

Chemistry

Mrac [35]2 years ago

x2=x+2 at x=−1 and x=2 so we have no need to worry about the end-points

f(x)=x+2−x^2

df/dx=1–2x

and that is zero (indicating a maximum) at x=1/2

So the maximum distance is f(1/2)=2.5–0.25=2.25

Why is it possible to collect hydrogen gas over water?
maw [93]
A gas produced in a chemical reaction can be collected by water displacement. Because the gas is collected over water, it is not pure but is mixed with vapor from the evaporation of the water. Dalton's law can be used to calculate the amount of the desired gas by subtracting the contribution of the water vapor.

Polymers are large molecules composed of simple units repeated many times. Thus, they often have relatively simple empirical for
sp2606 [1]

Answer:

(a) C5H8O2

(b) C2H2Cl2

(c) CH2

(d) CH

Explanation:

We need to find the proportion of the atoms in whole numbers. Given the percentages we can calculate the number of moles and find their proportions.

Assume 100 g and given the atomic weights the moles are calculated.

(a) C = 59.9/ 12.01 = 4.98  ≈ 5.00

    H = 8.06/1.007 = 8.00

    O = 32/15.999  = 2.00

C5H8O2

(b) C= 24.8/12.01 = 2.06≈ 2.00

    H = 2.0/1.007 = 1.99 ≈ 2.00

   Cl = 73.1/ 35.453 = 2.06 ≈ 2.00

C2H2Cl2

(c) C = 86/12.01 = 7.16  

    H= 14/1.007 = 13.90

7.16:13.90 ≈ 1:2

CH2

(d) C = 92.30/12.01 = 7.68

    H = 7.7 / 1.007 =   7.65

7.68:7.65 ≈ 1:1

CH
