Radio waves travel at the speed of light which is 3.00 x 10^8. How many minutes does it take for a radio message to reach saturn

ryzh [129]

Answer:

43.89 min

Explanation:

Given that:-

The speed of light = $3.00\times 10^8\ m/s$

The distance = $7.9\times 10^8\ km$

The conversion of distance in km to distance into m is shown below as:-

1 km = 1000 m

So,

Distance = $7.9\times 10^8\times 1000\ m=7.9\times 10^{11}\ m$

The relation between speed distance and time is shown below as:-

$Speed=\frac{Distance}{Time}$

Thus,

$3.00\times 10^8=\frac{7.9\times 10^{11}}{Time}$

$300000000\times time=10^{11}\times \:7.9\ s$

Time = 2633.33 seconds

Also, 1 s = 1/60 min

So,

Time= $\frac{2633.33}{60}\ min=43.89\ min$

Find the formula for the hydrate<br>0.737 g MgSO3 and 0.763 g H2O

babunello [35]

The required formula of hydrate is MgSO₃.6H₂O.

<h3>How do we calculate the formula of hydrate?</h3>

The number of moles of water per mole of anhydrous solid (x) will be computed by dividing the number of moles of water by the number of moles of anhydrous solid (x) to find the hydrate's formula.

Moles will be calculated as:
n = W/M, where

W = given mass
M = molar mass

Moles of MgSO₃ = 0.737g / 104.3g/mol = 0.007mol

Moles of H₂O = 0.763g / 18g/mol = 0.04 mol

Number of H₂O molecule = 0.04/0.007 = 5.7 = 6

So formula of hydrate is MgSO₃.6H₂O.

Hence required formula of hydrate compound is MgSO₃.6H₂O.

Which of the following statements does NOT describe the anomeric carbon? A. This carbon is attached to two oxygens. B. This carb

MaRussiya [10]

Answer:

The answer is E. All of the statements describe the anomeric carbon.

Explanation:

When a sugar switches from its open form to its ring form, the carbon from the carbonyl (aldehyde if it is an aldose, or a ketone in the case of a ketose) suffers a nucleophilic addition by one of the hydroxyls in the chain, preferably one that will form a 5 or 6 membered ring after the reaction.

As such, the anomeric carbon will have two oxygens attached (The original one and the one that bonded when the ring closed).

It will be chiral, given that it has 4 different groups attached. (-OR,-OH,-H and -R, where R is the carbon chain).

The hydroxyl group can be in any position (Above of below the ring), depending on with side the addition took place. (See attachment)

It is the carbon of the carbonyl in the open-chain form of the sugar, because it is the only one that can react with the Hydroxyls.
