Answer:

1. Energy intensity (primary energy consumption divided by GDP) for the world and various countries. The lower the value, the less energy is used to generate economic output, so lower means more efficient in a sense.

2.Lower Your Thermostat. Adopt the habit of lowering the temperature on your thermostat while away from home.

Start a Compost Pile.

Install Low-Flow Showerheads.

Seal All Windows.

Limit Space Heater Use.

Turn Off Unnecessary Water.

Replace Incandescent Bulbs.

Unplug Unused Chargers.

A solution is made by mixing equal masses of methanol, CH 4 O , and ethanol, C 2 H 6 O . Determine the mole fraction of each com

Fynjy0 [20]

Answer:

Mole fraction of $CH_4O$ = 0.58

Mole fraction of $C_2H_6O$ = 0.42

Explanation:

Let the mass of $CH_4O$ and $C_2H_6O$ = x g

Molar mass of $CH_4O$ = 33.035 g/mol

The formula for the calculation of moles is shown below:

$moles = \frac{Mass\ taken}{Molar\ mass}$

Thus,

$Moles_{CH_4O}= \frac{x\ g}{33.035\ g/mol}$

$Moles_{CH_4O}=\frac{x}{33.035}\ mol$

Molar mass of $C_2H_6O$ = 46.07 g/mol

Thus,

$Moles= \frac{x\ g}{46.07\ g/mol}$

$Moles_{C_2H_6O}=\frac{x}{46.07}\ mol$

So, according to definition of mole fraction:

$Mole\ fraction\ of\ CH_4O=\frac {n_{CH_4O}}{n_{CH_4O}+n_{C_2H_6O}}$

$Mole\ fraction\ of\ CH_4O=\frac{\frac{x}{33.035}}{\frac{x}{33.035}+\frac{x}{46.07}}=0.58$

Mole fraction of $C_2H_6O$ = 1 - 0.58 = 0.42

Carbon dioxide gas occupies a volume of 20.0 L at 308K and 2.30 atm. What volume would it occupy at 416 K and 5.40 atm?

Brrunno [24]

Answer : The final volume of gas is, 11.5 L

Explanation :

Combined gas law is the combination of Boyle's law, Charles's law and Gay-Lussac's law.

The combined gas equation is,

$\frac{P_1V_1}{T_1}=\frac{P_2V_2}{T_2}$

where,

$P_1$ = initial pressure of gas = 2.30 atm

$P_2$ = final pressure of gas = 5.40 atm

$V_1$ = initial volume of gas = 20.0 L

$V_2$ = final volume of gas = ?

$T_1$ = initial temperature of gas = 308 K

$T_2$ = final temperature of gas = 416 K

Now put all the given values in the above equation, we get:

$\frac{2.30atm\times 20.0L}{308K}=\frac{5.40atm\times V_2}{416K}$

$V_2=11.5L$

Therefore, the final volume of gas is, 11.5 L

Which salt is produced when NH4OH Reacts with HNO3

borishaifa [10]

Explanation:

When an acid reacts with a base then it results in the formation of salt and water.

$HNO_{3}$ is an acid and $NH_{4}OH$ is a base thus, when we dissolve ammonium hydroxide in nitric acid then it results in the formation of ammonium nitrate and water.

The reaction is as follows.

$NH_{4}OH + HNO_{3} \rightarrow NH_{4}NO_{3} + H_{2}O$

Hence, there will be formation of ammonium nitrate $(NH_{4}NO_{3})$ salt.
