1500kj = 15x 10^5 j
1 calorie = 4.18 j
(15 x 10^5)/4.18= 3.58 x 10^5

Answer is: a. 3.6 x 10^5 calories.  

E = 1500 kJ; heat energy.

E = 1500 kJ · 1000 J/kJ.

E = 1500000 J = 1.5·10⁶ J.

E = 1.5·10⁶ J ÷ 4.18 J/cal.

E = 3.6·10⁵ cal.

Calorie (cal), or small calorie, is the amount of energy needed to heat one gram of water by one degree Celsius.

One small calorie is approximately 4.18 joules.

A calorie is a unit of energy.

Calculate the pOH of a solution if the concentration of hydroxide ions (OH-) is 1.9 x 10-5M?
OLEGan [10]

Answer:

9.28

Explanation:

pOH refers to a measure of hydroxide ions concentration. pOH tells about the alkalinity of a solution. If pOH is less than 7 then aqueous solutions are alkaline, acidic if pOH is greater than 7 and neutral if pOH is equal to 7.

Concentration of the hydroxide ions = 1.9 x 10-5 M

pH = -log(1.9\times 10^{-5})=4.72

pOH = 14 - pH

=14 - 4.72 = 9.28

Calculate the solubility of Mg(OH)2 in water at 25 C. You'll find Ksp data in the ALEKS Data tab. Round your answer to significa
elena-s [515]

Answer:

1.12 × 10⁻⁴ M

Explanation:

Step 1: Write the reaction for the solution of Mg(OH)₂

Mg(OH)₂(s) ⇄ Mg²⁺(aq) + 2 OH⁻(aq)

Step 2: Make an ICE chart

We can relate the solubility product constant (Ksp) with the solubility (S) through an ICE chart.

       Mg(OH)₂(s) ⇄ Mg²⁺(aq) + 2 OH⁻(aq)

I                                0                    0

C                              +S                +2S

E                                S                  2S

The solubility product constant is:

Ksp = 5.61 × 10⁻¹² = [Mg²⁺] × [OH⁻]² = S × (2S)² = 4S³

S = 1.12 × 10⁻⁴ M

How many grams of CO2 gas are produced if 48<br> grams of CH4 gas are consumed?
NNADVOKAT [17]

Answer:

CH4 +2 O2 — CO2 +2 H2O

Now we see that for 1 mol i.e. 16 grams of methane results in 1 mol of CO2 or 44 grams of CO2.

That means for 3 moles of methane , we will obtain 3 moles of CO2 OR for 48 (3*16) grams of CO2 , we will obtain (44*3) 132 grams of CO2 .That's it….

hey .dude hope the answer was helpful ....
