Answer:

4.299009 pounds of fat was present in the person's body.

6.2170284 pounds of fat were removed from the patient

Explanation:

Percentage of fat in the body = 3.05 of mass

Let the amount of fat be x

Mass of the athlete = 65 kg

3.0\%=\frac{x}{65 kg}\times 100

x = 1.95 kg = 4.299009 pounds (1 kg = 2.20462 pounds)

4.299009 pounds of fat was present in the person's body.

Density of fat = 0.94 g/L

Volume of fat to be removed = V = 3.0 L = 3000 mL[/tex]

Let the mass of fat to be removed be y

Density=\frac{Mass}{Volume}

0.94 g/mL=\frac{y}{3000 mL}

y = 2,820 g = 2.820 kg=6.2170284 pounds

6.2170284 pounds of fat were removed from the patient

1. 3.0% ----> 3.0 kg fat= 100 kg body weigh
also remember that 1 kg= 2.20 lbs

65 kg  \frac{3.0 kg}{100 kg} x  \frac{2.20 lb}{1 kg} = 4.29 lbs

2. 0.94 g/mL----> 0.94 grams= 1 mL
1 Liters= 1000 mL
1kg= 1000 grams

3 Liters  \frac{1000 mL}{1 L} x   \frac{0.94 grams}{1 mL} x  \frac{1 kg}{1000 g} x   \frac{2.20 lbs}{1 kg}  = 6.20 lbs

Find the pH of a 0.100 molar H2C6O6 solution with ka, where KA is equal 8.0×10–5​
lubasha [3.4K]

The pH of the solution is 2.54.

Explanation:

pH is the measure of acidity of the solution and Ka is the dissociation constant. Dissociation constant is the measure of concentration of hydrogen ion donated to the solution.

The solution of C₆H₂O₆ will get dissociated as C₆HO₆ and H+ ions. So the molar concentration of 0.1 M is present at the initial stage. Lets consider that the concentration of hydrogen ion released as x and the same amount of the base ion will also be released.

So the dissociation constant Kₐ can be written as the ratio of concentration of products to the concentration of reactants. As the concentration of reactants is given as 0.1 M and the concentration of products is considered as x for both hydrogen and base ion. Then the

K_{a}=\frac{[H^{+}][HB] }{[reactant]}

[HB] is the concentration of base.

8 * 10^{-5} =\frac{x^{2}  }{0.1}\\\\\\x^{2} = 8 * 10^{-5}*0.1

x^{2} = 0.08 * 10^{-4}\\ \\x = 0.283*10^{-2}

Then

pH = - log [x] = - log [ 0.283 * 10^{-2}]\\ \\pH = 2 + 0.548 = 2.54

So the pH of the solution is 2.54.

A tablet of Pain Be Gone Aspirin, which had a mass of 1.213 g, was pulverized and 1.159 g were dissolved in 10.0 mL of ethyl alc
Elan Coil [88]

Answer:

a. Moles of NaOH  = 0.001643 moles

b. 0.296 g

c. 0.3098 g

d. Not acceptable

Explanation:

a.

Considering:

Molarity=\frac{Moles\ of\ solute}{Volume\ of\ the\ solution}

Or,

Moles =Molarity \times {Volume\ of\ the\ solution}

Given :

For NaOH :

Molarity = 0.1052 M

Volume = 15.62 mL

The conversion of mL to L is shown below:

1 mL = 10⁻³ L

Thus, volume = 15.62×10⁻³ L

Thus, moles of NaOH :

Moles=0.1052 \times {15.62\times 10^{-3}}\ moles

Moles of NaOH  = 0.001643 moles

b.

The reaction of NaOH with the acetylsalicylic acid is in the ratio of 1:1.

Thus, Moles of NaOH = Moles of acetylsalicylic acid = 0.001643 moles

Molar mass of acetylsalicylic acid = 180.16 g/mol

The formula for the calculation of moles is shown below:

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

Thus,

Mass = Moles * Molar mass = 0.001643 moles * 180.16 g/mol = 0.296 g

c.

1.159 g of sample contains 0.296 g of acetylsalicylic acid

1.213 g of sample contains \frac{0.296}{1.159}\times 1.213 g of acetylsalicylic acid

Mass of acetylsalicylic acid = 0.3098 g = 309.8 mg

d. Sample contains = 309.8 mg

Manufacturer claiming = 315 mg to 335 mg

Thus , it is not acceptable.

Atoms with loosely held valence electrons have 1. high ionization energy and high electron affinity. 2. high ionization energy a
EastWind [94]

Answer:

4

Explanation:

Ionization energy can be defined as the energy required for an atom to lose its valence electron to form an ion. Hence, it deals with how easily an atom would lose its electron and form an ion. As the valence electrons are lossless bound to the outermost shell, they can easily be lost without much problem or better still they can be lost easily. Hence, the energy change here is small and thus we can conclude that the ionization energy here is low.

The electron affinity works quite differently from the ionization energy. It deals with the way in which a neutral atom attracts an electron to form an ion. For an electron with loose valence electrons, the sure fact is that it does not really need these electrons. Hence, there is no need for an high electron affinity on its part. Thus, we conclude that the electron affinity is also low
