Answer:

1) When 69.9 g heptane is burned it releases 5.6 mol water.

2) C₇H₁₆ + 11O₂ → 7CO₂ + 8H₂O.

Explanation:

Firstly, we should balance the equation of heptane combustion.

The balanced equation is: C₇H₁₆ + 11O₂ → 7CO₂ + 8H₂O.

This means that every 1.0 mole of complete combustion of heptane will release 8 moles of H₂O.

We need to calculate the no. of moles in 69.9 g of heptane that is burned using the relation: n = mass/molar mass.

n of 69.9 g of heptane = mass/molar mass = (69.9 g)/(100.21 g/mol) = 0.697 mol ≅ 0.7 mol.

Using cross multiplication:

1.0 mol of heptane releases → 8 moles of water.

0.7 mol of heptane releases → ??? moles of water.

∴ The no. of moles of water that will be released from burning (69.9 g) of water = (0.7 mol)(8.0 mol)/(1.0 mol) = 5.6 mol.

∴ When 69.9 g heptane is burned it releases 5.6 mol water.

The British gold sovereign coin is an alloy of gold and copper having a total mass of 7.988 g, and is 22-karat gold.

azamat

Answer:

(a) $m_{gold}=7.322g$

(b)

$V_{gold}=0.379cm^3$

$V_{copper}=0.122cm^3$

Explanation:

Hello,

(a) In this case, with the given formula we easily compute the mass of gold contained in the sovereign as shown below:

$m_{gold}=\frac{m_{tota}*karats}{24}=\frac{7.988g*22}{24}=7.322g$

(b) Now, by knowing the density of gold and copper, 19.32 and 8.94 g/cm³ respectively, we compute each volume, by also knowing that the rest of the coin contains copper:

$V_{gold}=\frac{m_{gold}}{\rho_{gold}} =\frac{7.322g}{19.32g/cm^3}=0.379cm^3$

$m_{copper}=7.988g-7.322g=1.09g\\V_{copper}=\frac{m_{copper}}{\rho_{copper}}=\frac{1.09g}{8.94g/cm^3} \\\\V_{copper}=0.122cm^3$

$\rho _{coin}=\frac{m_{total}}{V_{gold}+V_{copper}}=\frac{7.988 g}{0.379cm^3+0.122cm^3}\\ \\\rho _{coin}=15.94g/cm^3$

Best regards.

3 organisms that help prevent infections

love history [14]

Infection control is the discipline concerned with preventing nosocomial or healthcare-associated infection, a practical (rather than academic) sub-discipline of epidemiology. It is an essential, though often underrecognized and undersupported, part of the infrastructure of health care. Infection control and hospital epidemiology are akin to public health practice, practiced within the confines of a particular health-care delivery system rather than directed at society as a whole. Anti-infective agents include antibiotics, antibacterials, antifungals, antivirals and antiprotozoals.[1]

Infection control addresses factors related to the spread of infections within the healthcare setting (whether patient-to-patient, from patients to staff and from staff to patients, or among-staff), including prevention (via hand hygiene/hand washing, cleaning/disinfection/sterilization, vaccination, surveillance), monitoring/investigation of demonstrated or suspected spread of infection within a particular health-care setting (surveillance and outbreak investigation), and management (interruption of outbreaks). It is on this basis that the common title being adopted within health care is "infection prevention and control." (got from google
