In a certain time, light travels 4.96 km in a vacuum. during the same time, light travels only 3.36 km in a liquid. what is the

the refractive index of the liquid is 1.476

The refractive index, which has no dimensions, measures how quickly light passes through a substance.

It can also be described as the difference between the speed of light in a vacuum and a medium.

Refractive index is equal to the product of the light's liquid and vacuum speeds.

Therefore.

speed of light in vacuum = 4.96 km/t

speed of light in liquid = 3.36 km/t

Refractive index = 4.96/3.36

Refractive index =1.476

Therefore, the refractive index of the liquid is 1.476

How many grams (mass) are in 1.7 moles of Nickel II oxide NiO?
WARRIOR [948]

Answer:

126.99g

Explanation:

NiO has a molar mass of 74.7 g/mol. This means that one mole of nickel (II) oxide has a mass of 74.7 grams. We can use stoichiometry/dimensional analysis to figure out how many grams are in 1.7 moles.

1.7mol NiO (\frac{74.7grams}{1 mole} ) = 126.99g

Which base would not effectively deprotonate acetylene? (ch3)2nli ch3och2mgbr lioch3 ch3li kh?
Eva8 [605]

Acetylene has a chemical formula which can be written as:

C2H2

 

We can see that there are two positive ions, H+. Now what deprotonation means is that the H+ is removed from acetylene to form acetylene ion and water. In this case, I believe that the answer would be:

<span>LiOCH3</span>

A 26.08 g mixture of zinc and sodium is reacted with a stoichiometric amount of sulfuric acid. The reaction mixture is then reac
Over [174]

Answer:

Molar percent of sodium in original mixture is 88,50%

Explanation:

The last reaction is:

BaCl₂ + Na₂SO₄ → BaSO₄ + 2 NaCl

The moles of BaCl₂ are:

0,132L × 3,80M = 0,502 moles of BaCl₂

As the amount of BaCl₂ is the maximum possible to produce BaSO₄, the moles of BaCl₂ must be the same than moles of Na₂SO₄.

0,502 moles of BaCl₂ ≡ 0,502 moles of Na₂SO₄

These moles of Na₂SO₄ comes from:

2 Na + H₂SO₄ → Na₂SO₄ + H₂

As the reaction is in stoichiometric amounts, moles of Na are twice the moles of Na₂SO₄

0,502 moles of Na₂SO₄ ×\frac{2molesNa}{1moleNa_{2}SO_{4}}× 22,99 g/mole = 23,08 g of Na

Molar percent of sodium in original mixture is:

\frac{23,08g}{26,08g}*100 = <em>88,50% </em>

I hope it helps

a compound containing only carbon and hydrogen produces 1.80 gCO2 and 0.738 gH2O. Find the empirical formula of the compound. Ex
r-ruslan [8.4K]

Answer:

The empirical formula is CH2

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Mass of CO2 produced = 1.80 grams

Mass of H2O produced = 0.738 grams

Step 2: The balanced equation

CxHy + O2 → CO2 + H2O

Step 3: Calculate moles CO2

Moles CO2 = mass CO2 / molar mass CO2

Moles CO2 = 1.80 grams / 44.01 g/mol

Moles CO2 = 0.0409 moles

Step 4: Calculate moles C

In 1 mol CO2 we have 1 mol CO2

In 0.0409 moles CO2 we have 0.0409 mol C

Step 5: Calculate moles H2O

Moles H2O = mass H2O / molar mass H2O

Moles H2O = 0.738 grams / 18.02 g/mol

Moles H2O = 0.04095  moles

Step 6: Calculate moles H

In 1 mol H2O we have 2 moles H

In 0.04095 moles H2O we have 2*0.04095 = 0.0819 moles H

Step 7: Calculate the mol ratio

We divide by the smallest amount of moles

C: 0.0409 / 0.0409 = 1

H: 0.0819 moles / 0.0409 =  2

The empirical formula is CH2
