Answer:

The top ocean layer tends to be the warmest layer due to heating from the sun.

Bonus+ : This is also the reason why oceans and sea's don't freeze(well except in the poles, no sun warmth avaliable there)

A chemist adds 0.60L of a 0.20/molL sodium thiosulfate Na2S2O3 solution to a reaction flask. Calculate the millimoles of sodium

Serggg [28]

Answer:

1.2×10² mmole of Na₂S₂O₃

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Volume = 0.6 L

Molarity = 0.2 mol/L

Mole of Na₂S₂O₃ =?

Molarity is simply defined as the mole of solute per unit litre of water. Mathematically, it is expressed as:

Molarity = mole /Volume

With the above formula, we can obtain the number of mole of Na₂S₂O₃ in the solution as illustrated below:

Volume = 0.6 L

Molarity = 0.2 mol/L

Mole of Na₂S₂O₃ =?

Molarity = mole /Volume

0.2 = Mole of Na₂S₂O₃ / 0.6

Cross multiply

Mole of Na₂S₂O₃ = 0.2 × 0.6

Mole of Na₂S₂O₃ = 0.12 mole

Finally, we shall convert 0.12 mole to millimole (mmol). This can be obtained as follow:

1 mole = 1000 mmol

Therefore,

0.12 mole = 0.12 mole × 1000 mmol / 1 mole

0.12 mole = 120 = 1.2×10² mmole

Thus, the chemist added 1.2×10² mmole of Na₂S₂O₃

A 7.0 g sample of a hydrocarbon (a molecule that has only hydrogen and carbon) is subject to combustion analysis. The mass of CO

Akimi4 [234]

Answer: The empirical formula for the given compound is $CH_2$

Explanation:

The chemical equation for the combustion of compound having carbon and hydrogen follows:

$C_xH_y+O_2\rightarrow CO_2+H_2O$

where, 'x' and 'y' are the subscripts of carbon and hydrogen respectively.

We are given:

Mass of $CO_2=22.0g$

We know that:

Molar mass of carbon dioxide = 44 g/mol

For calculating the mass of carbon:

In 44 g of carbon dioxide, 12 g of carbon is contained.

So, in 22.0 g of carbon dioxide, $\frac{12}{44}\times 22.0=6g$ of carbon will be contained.

For calculating the mass of hydrogen:

Mass of hydrogen = Mass of sample - Mass of carbon

Mass of hydrogen = 7.0 g - 6 g

Mass of hydrogen = 1.0 g

To formulate the empirical formula, we need to follow some steps:

Step 1: Converting the given masses into moles.

Moles of Carbon = $\frac{\text{Given mass of Carbon}}{\text{Molar mass of Carbon}}=\frac{6g}{12g/mole}=0.5moles$

Moles of Hydrogen = $\frac{\text{Given mass of Hydrogen}}{\text{Molar mass of Hydrogen}}=\frac{1.0g}{1g/mole}=1.0moles$

Step 2: Calculating the mole ratio of the given elements.

For the mole ratio, we divide each value of the moles by the smallest number of moles calculated which is 0.5 moles.

For Carbon = $\frac{0.5}{0.5}=1$

For Hydrogen = $\frac{1.0}{0.5}=2$

Step 3: Taking the mole ratio as their subscripts.

The ratio of Fe : C : H = 1 : 2

Hence, the empirical formula for the given compound is $C_{1}H_{2}=CH_2$
