The steel rods will enable the concrete to form without any bumps and it will add shape to the cement and strength, so no odd massive lumps are formed.

That is what I think anyways :)

Answer:

Using diverse nutrient sources can help maintain soil health. Manure and compost add organic matter as well as an array of nutrients, but using just compost or manure to meet the nitrogen needs of the crop every year can result in excessive phosphorus levels in the soil.

Be sure to answer all parts.The combustion of a 40.0−g gaseous mixture of H2 and CH4 releases 3766 kJ of heat. Calculate the amo
Svetach [21]

Answer:H2=11.4g

CH4=28.6g

Explanation:The complete combustion of the two gases can be represented by a balanced reaction below

1. CH4 +2O2___CO2+2H2O

2.2H2+O2___2H2O

Combining the two we have CH4 +2H2+3O2___

CO2+4H2O

Since the mixture contains 40gof CH4 and 2, therefore 20g of CH4 and 8g of H2 combines.

Calculated from their molecular Mass i.e CH4 12+4×2)=20 and 2H2= 2×2×2=8g

Mass of CH4=20/28×40=28.6g

2H2=8/28×40=11.4g

The empirical formula : C₁₂H₄F₇

The molecular formula : C₂₄H₈F₁₄

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

mol C (MW=12 g/mol)

\tt \dfrac{18.24}{12}=1.52

mol H(MW=1 g/mol) :

\tt \dfrac{0.51}{1}=0.51

mol F(MW=19 g/mol)

\tt \dfrac{16.91}{19}=0.89

mol ratio of C : H : O =1.52 : 0.51 : 0.89=3 : 1 : 1.75=12 : 4 : 7

Empirical formula : C₁₂H₄F₇

(Empirical formula)n=molecular formula

( C₁₂H₄F₇)n=562 g/mol

(12.12+4.1+7.19)n=562

(281)n=562⇒ n =2

Molecular formula : C₂₄H₈F₁₄

Tetrachloromethane, CCl4 is produced from the substitution reaction between methane and chlorine gas. If the rate of formation o
Korolek [52]

The rate of disappearance of chlorine gas : 0.2 mol/dm³

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

The reaction rate (v) shows the change in the concentration of the substance (changes in addition to concentrations for reaction products or changes in concentration reduction for reactants) per unit time.

For reaction :

\tt aA+bB\rightarrow cC+dD

The rate reaction :

\tt -\dfrac{1}{a}\dfrac{d[-A]}{dt}= -\dfrac{1}{b}\dfrac{d[-B]}{dt}=\dfrac{1}{c}\dfrac{d[C]}{dt}=\dfrac{1}{d}\dfrac{d[D]}{dt}

Reaction for formation CCl₄ :

<em>CH₄+4Cl₂⇒CCl₄+4HCl</em>

<em />

From equation, rate of reaction = rate of formation CCl₄ = 0.05 mol/dm³

Rate of formation of  CCl₄  = reaction rate x coefficient of  CCCl₄

0.05 mol/dm³ = reaction rate x 1⇒reaction rate = 0.05 mol/dm³

The rate of disappearance of chlorine gas (Cl₂) :

Rate of disappearance of  Cl₂  = reaction rate x coefficient of  Cl₂

Rate of disappearance of  Cl₂ = 0.05 x 4 = 0.2 mol/dm³

mylen [45]

He can conclude that his experiment has very low precision.

<h3>What is Precision ?</h3>

Precision is defined as the degree of refinement with which an operation is performed or a measurement .

Precision is how close the exact answers are together.

As, the answers are increasing in time.

None of the answers are similar to one another.

Hence, He can conclude that his experiment has very low precision.
