They began to filter the water around them for calcium.

This is also how they produce the shells , They would collect calcium from the water around and slowly "release loose glue" to push up to the front of the outer layer and it drys to be harder.

I really hope that this helps you out a lot.

How many moles of each reactant are needed to produce 3.60 x 10^2g ch3oh
zysi [14]
Methanol is prepared by reacting Carbon monoxide and Hydrogen gas,

                                   CO  +  2 H₂    →    CH₃OH

Calculating Moles of CO:
                                       According to equation,

             32 g (1 mole) of CH₃OH is produced by  =  1 Mole of CO
So,
             3.60 × 10² g of CH₃OH is produced by  =  X Moles of CO

Solving for X,
                       X  =  (3.60 × 10² g × 1 Mole) ÷ 32 g

                       X  =  11.25 Moles of CO

Calculating Moles of H₂:
                                       According to equation,

             32 g (1 mole) of CH₃OH is produced by  =  2 Mole of H₂
So,
             3.60 × 10² g of CH₃OH is produced by  =  X Moles of H₂

Solving for X,
                       X  =  (3.60 × 10² g × 2 Mole) ÷ 32 g

                       X  =  22.5 Moles of H₂

Result:
            3.60 × 10² g of CH₃OH
is produced by reacting 11.25 Moles of CO and 22.5 Moles of H₂.

There are two naturally occurring isotopes of copper. 63cu has a mass of 62.9296 amu. 65cu has a mass of 64.9278 amu. determine
SSSSS [86.1K]
1) You need to use the atomic mass of copper.


You can find it in a periodic table. It is 63.546 amu.


2) The atomic mass is the weigthed mass of the different isotopes.


This is, the atomic mass of one element is the atomic mass of each isotope times its corresponding abundance:


=> atomic mass of the element = abundance isotope 1 * atomic mass isotope 1 + abundance isotope 2 *  atomic mass isotope 2 + ....+abundance isotope n * atomic mass isotope n.


3) The statement tells there are two isotopes so the abundance of one is x and the abundance of the other is 1 - x


=> 63.546 amu = x * 62.9296 amu + (1-x)*64.9278


=> 63.546 = 62.9296x + 64.9278 - 64.9278x


=> 64.9278x - 62.9296 = 64.9278 - 63.546


=> 1.9982x = 1.3818


=> x = 1.3818 / 1.9982 = 0.6915 = 69.15%


=> 1 - x = 1 - 0.6915 = 0.3085 = 30.85%


Answer:


Cu-63 69.15%;


Cu-65 : 30.85%

The half-life of cesium-137 is 30 years. suppose we have a 200-mg sample.
Assoli18 [71]
a) To find  the mass after t years:

we will use this formula:

A = Ao / 2^n 

when A =the amount remaining

and Ao = the initial amount

and n = t / t(1/2)

by substitution:

∴ A = 200 mg/ 2^(t/30y)


b) Mass after 90 y :

by  using the previous formula and substitute t by 90 y

A = 200mg/ 2^(90y/30y)

∴ A = 25 mg

C) Time for 1 mg remaining:

when A= Ao/ 2^(t/t(1/2)

so, by substitution:

1 mg = 200 mg / 2^(t/30y)

∴2^(t/30y) = 200 mg  by solving for t

∴ t = 229 y

2.what is the purpose of the sodium sulfate? (1 pt) why did you rinse the sodium sulfate with an additional portion of methylene
suter [353]

To ensure that the 9-Fluorenone was totally dry, it had to be washed with methylene chloride. To make sure that methylene chloride is present in a pure solution, sodium sulfate binds to water and precipitates.

<h3>What is the purpose of the sodium sulfate?</h3>
  • Although it has numerous additional uses, sodium sulfate is primarily employed in the production of detergents and in the Kraft process of paper pulping.
  • The decahydrate's natural mineral form, mirabilite, accounts for about half of the world's output, with the other half coming from chemical byproducts. Sodium sulfate was used as a drying, isolating, and anhydrous salt for the 9-fluorenone.
  • To make sure that methylene chloride is present in a pure solution, sodium sulfate binds to water and precipitates.
  • The sodium salt of sulfuric acid is known as sodium sulfate. Na2SO4 is the chemical formula for sodium sulfate. The mineral thenardite, which is also known as anhydrous sulfate, is described as a white, crystalline solid, whereas the decahydrate Na2SO4. 10H2O is also known as Glauber's salt or the mirabilis salt.
