Answer:

B) 2 J

Explanation:

2 J

Since E ∝ amplitude2 then as the amplitude is doubled the energy is quardrupled.

Plugging in to check

amplitude2=E

amplitude2=4

amplitude2

=

4

amplitude=

4

amplitude=2

Jamuuj ExpertThe energy of a wave is directly proportional to the square of the waves amplitude. Therefore, E = A² where A is the amplitude. This therefore means when the amplitude of a wave is doubled the energy will be quadrupled, when the amplitude is tripled the energy increases by a nine fold and so on.Thus, in this case if the energy is 4J, then the amplitude will be  √4 = 2 .

Based on periodic properties, choose the more metallic element from each of the following pairs.
dimulka [17.4K]

Answer:

Sr is the more metallic element

Bi is the more metallic element

O is the more metallic element

As is the more metallic element

Explanation:

One thing should be clear; metallic character increases down the group but decreases across the period.

Hence, as we move across the period, elements become less metallic. As we move down the group elements become more metallic.

This is the basis upon which decisions were made about the metallic character of each of the elements listed above.

La aspirina se prepara haciendo reaccionar ácido salicílico con exceso de anhídrido etanoico. En un experimento, 50.05 g de ácid
Tanya [424]

La aspirina se prepara haciendo reaccionar ácido salicílico con exceso de anhídrido etanoico. En un experimento, 50.05 g de ácido salicílico se convirtieron en 55.45 g de aspirina. ¿Cuál fue el porcentaje de rendimiento?

<em>In English:</em>

Aspirin is prepared by reacting salicylic acid with excess ethanoic anhydride. In one experiment, 50.05 g of salicylic acid was converted to 55.45 g of aspirin. What was the yield percentage?

Answer:

el rendimiento porcentual para la cantidad dada de ácido salicílico es 84.99 %

<em>In English:</em>

<em>the percent yield for the given amount of salicylic acid is </em><em>84.99%</em>

<em></em>

Explanation:

La ecuación química equilibrada para la reacción se puede escribir como:

C₇H₆O₃ + C₄H₆O₃    →    C₉H₈O₄ + HC₂H₃O₂

Para la reacción mostrada arriba; El reactivo limitante de la reacción es el ácido salicílico. Ahora; calcular el porcentaje de rendimiento; se espera que primero determinemos el rendimiento teórico de la reacción.

Entonces; la fórmula para calcular el porcentaje de rendimiento: \mathbf {= \frac{actual \ yield }{theoretical \ yield } *100 }  

El rendimiento teórico se determina de la siguiente manera:

50.05 g * 1 mol / 138.21 g / mol de C₇H₆O₃ * 1 mol de C₉H₈O₄ / 1 mol de C₇H₆O₃ * 180.157 g / mol de C₉H₈O₄ = 65.24 g de C₉H₈O₄

Porcentaje de rendimiento \mathbf {= \frac{55.45 }{65.24 } *100 }

Porcentaje de rendimiento = 84.99%

Por lo tanto, el porcentaje de rendimiento para la cantidad dada de ácido salicílico es 84.99%

<em>In English:</em>

<em>The balanced chemical eqaution for the reaction can be written as:</em>

<em>C₇H₆O₃ + C₄H₆O₃    →    C₉H₈O₄ + HC₂H₃O₂</em>

<em>For the reaction shown above;  The limiting reactant from the reaction is  salicylic acid. Now; to calculate the percentage yield ; we are expected to first determine the theoretical yield of the reaction. </em>

<em>So; the formula for calculating the percentage yield </em>\mathbf {= \frac{actual \ yield }{theoretical \ yield } *100 }<em>  </em>

<em />

<em>The theoretical yield is determined as follows:</em>

<em>50.05 g * 1 mol/ 138.21 g/mol of C₇H₆O₃ * 1 mol of C₉H₈O₄/ 1 mol of C₇H₆O₃ * 180.157 g/mol of C₉H₈O₄ = 65.24 g of C₉H₈O₄ is produced</em>

<em />

<em>Percentage yield </em>\mathbf {= \frac{55.45 }{65.24 } *100 }<em />

<em>Percentage yield = 84.99%</em>

<em />

<em>Thus, the percent yield for the given amount of salicylic acid is </em><em>84.99%</em>
