Perhaps when they are trying to find the distance of an asteroid to the Earth to find out whether or not it is a hazard to Earth.
Answer:
NaNO3 (solubility = 89.0 g/100 g H2O)
Explanation:
The solubility of a specie is the amount of solute that will dissolve in one litre of the solvent. Solubility is usually expressed in units of molarity.
Now let us calculate the molarity of the NaNO3 (solubility = 89.0 g/100 g H2O)
Molar mass of NaNO3= 23+14+3(16)= 85gmol-1
Mass of solute=89.0g
Amount of solute= mass of NaNO3/molar mass of NaNO3
Amount of solute= 89.0g/85.0 gmol-1
= 1.0moles of NaNO3
Note that 100g of water=100cm^3 of water.
If 1.0 moles of NaNO3 dissolve in 100cm^3 or water therefore,
x moles of NaNO3 will dissolve in 1000cm^3 of water
x= 1.0 × 1000/ 100
x= 10.0 moles of NaNO3
Answer:
What is the main purpose of the curiosity rover ?
Explanation:
Curiosity's mission is to determine whether the Red Planet ever was, or is, habitable to microbial life. The rover, which is about the size of a MINI Cooper, is equipped with 17 cameras and a robotic arm containing a suite of specialized laboratory-like tools and instruments.
