The volume of the granite piece is 2.2 (2.2 = 17.8-15.6) cubic centimeters. A graduate cylinder is a tool for measuring a volume of a liquid object. The granite piece's volume could be obtained by measuring the difference between the beginning of water volume and the latter water volume assuming there is no reaction between the water and the granite piece<span>. The cubic centimeter unit is equal the milliliter unit, so there is no conversion needed.</span>

The volume of the granite piece is simply the difference of the displaced volume level and the original volume of water which is 17.8 mL - 15.6 mL = 2.2 mL or 2.2 cm^3. This is by the Archimedes Principle where the volume of the object in the liquid would be equal to the volume displaced.

There are two steps in the usual industrial preparation of acrylic acid, the immediate precursor of several useful plastics. In
adell [148]

Answer:

The net change in enthalpy for the formation of one mole of acrylic acid from calcium carbide, water and carbon dioxide is 523.2 kJ.

Explanation:

Step 1:

CaC_2(s) + 2H_2O(g)\rightarrow C_2H_2(g) + Ca(OH)_2(s),\Delta H_1=414.0 kJ...[1]

Step 2 :

6C_2H_2(g) + 3CO_2(g) + 4H_2O(g)\rightarrow 5CH_2CHCO_2H(g) \Delta H_2=132.0kJ..[2]

Adding 6 × [1] and [2]:

6CaC_2(s) + 12H_2O(g)\rightarrow 6C_2H_2(g) + 6Ca(OH)_2(s)

6C_2H_2(g)+3CO_2(g)+16H_2O(g)\rightarrow 5CH_2CHCO_2H(g)

we get :

6CaC_2(s) + 8H_2O(g)+3CO_2(g)\rightarrow 5CH_2CHCO_2H(g)+ 6Ca(OH)_2(s),\Delta H'=?

\Delta H'=6\times \Delta H_1+\Delta H_2

\Delta H'=6\times 414.0 kJ+132.0kJ

\Delta H'=2,626 kJ

Energy released on formation of 5 moles of acrylic acid = 2,626 kJ

Energy released on formation of 1 mole of acrylic acid:

\frac{ 2,626 kJ}{5 } = 523.2 kJ

Which of the following scientists was the first to determine the
Maru [420]

Answer:

Robert Boyle

Explanation:

Robert Boyle was an Irish chemist and is famously referred to as the first modern chemist. He was born on the 25th of January, 1627 in Lismore, Ireland and died on the 31st, December 1691, London, United Kingdom.

Robert Boyle was the first to determine the relationship between the pressure and volume of a gas.

Boyles states that when the temperature of an ideal gas is kept constant, the pressure of the gas is inversely proportional to the volume occupied by the gas.

Mathematically, Boyles law is given by;

PV = K

P_{1}V_{1} = P_{2}V_{2}

Where;

V1 and V2 represents the initial and final volumes respectively.

T1 and T2 represents the initial and final temperatures respectively.

Substrate: N-benzoyl-L-tyrosine ethyl ester (BTEE) 0.001M in 50% aqueous
andreev551 [17]

0.1 mL of the stock solution of the enzyme is taken and made up to 5.0 mL with 0.001M HCl in order to prepare a 50-fold diluted enzyme.

<h3>What is dilution?</h3>

Dilution is a process of making a solution of lower concentration from a solution of higher concentration by the addition of solvent to a given volume of the solution of higher concentration.

Dilution of solutions is done using the dilution formula in order to determine the given volume of diluent or stock solution required. The dilution formula is given below:

  • C1V1 = C2V2

where:

  • C1 = Initial concentration of enzyme
  • C2 = Final concentration of enzyme
  • V1 = Initial volume
  • V2 = Final volume

For the enzyme dilution;

C1 = 1 mg/mL

C2 = 1/50 mg/ml = 0.02 mg/ml

V= ?

V2 = 5 ml

V1 = C2V2/C1

V1 =  0.02 * 5/1 = 0.1 mL

Therefore, 0.1 mL of the stock solution of the enzyme is taken and made up to 5.0 mL with 0.001M HCl in order to prepare a 50-fold diluted enzyme.
