What would increase the speed of a sound wave?

1 answer:

3 0

Heat, like sound, is a form of kinetic energy. Molecules at higher temperatures have more energy, thus they can vibrate faster. Since the molecules vibrate faster, sound waves can travel more quickly. The speed of sound in room temperature air is 346 meters per second.

Answer:

Mass of HCl = 73 g

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of hydrogen = 2 g

Mass of HCl = ?

Solution:

First of all we will write the balance chemical equation:

H₂ + Cl₂ → 2HCl

Number of moles of hydrogen = 2 g/ 2g/mol

Number of moles of hydrogen = 1 mol

Form balanced chemical equation compare the moles hydrogen with HCl.

H₂ : HCl

1 : 2

Mass of HCl:

Mass of HCl = number of moles × molar mass

Mass of HCl = 2 mol × 36.5 g/mol

Mass of HCl = 73 g

In experiment 1, how many moles of benzoic acid are present? how many moles of sodium bicarbonate are contained in 1 ml of a 10%

nexus9112 [7]

First, let us calculate the moles of solute or sodium bicarbonate is in the 1 ml solution.

moles = 1 mL * (1 g / 9 mL) = 0.11 moles

The molar mass of sodium bicarbonate is 84 g/mol, therefore the mass is:

mass = 0.11 moles * 84 g/mol

mass = 9.33 g

A boy found a solid metal box in his backyard. The box had been buried for so long, it was difficult to determine from what the

Alex777 [14]

Answer:

Box is made up of copper, because density is 8.96 g/cm³.

Explanation:

Given data:

Volume of box = 17.63 cm³

Mass of box = 158 g

Which metal box is this = ?

Solution:

First we will calculate the density of box then we will compare it with the density value of given metals.

d = m/v

d = 158 g/ 17.63 cm³

d = 8.96 g/cm³

The calculated density is similar to the given density value of copper thus box is made up of copper.

Calculate the percent yield if 52.9 g of ethanol reacts to produce 26.7 g of ether.

blagie [28]

Answer:

The % yield is 62.7 %

Explanation:

Step 1: the balanced equation

2CH3CH2OH(l) → CH3CH2OCH2CH3(l) + H2O(l)

Step 2: Data given

mass of ethanol = 52.9 grams

molar mass of ethanol = 46.07 g/mol

mass of ether = 26.7 grams

Molar mass of ether = 74.12 g/mol

Step 3: Calculate moles of ethanol

Number of moles = Mass / molar mass

Moles of ethanol = 52.9 grams / 46.07 g/mol

Moles of ethanol = 1.15 moles

Step 4: Calculate moles of ether

For 2 moles of ethanol consumed, we have 1 mole of ether produced

For 1.15 moles of ethanol consumed, we have 1.15/2 = 0.575 moles of ether produced

Step 5: Calculate mass of ether

Mass = moles * Molar mass

Mass ether = 0.575 moles * 74.12 g/mol = 42.62 grams = theoretical yield

Step 6: Calculate % yield

% yield = (26.7 / 42.62) * 100 = 62.7%

The % yield is 62.7 %
