Answer:

A) 10 grams

Explanation:

16 hours = 2 half lives

This means that the number is divided in half twice.

40/2 = 20

20/2 = 10

I hope this helps!! :)

Suppose that a fictitious element, x, has two isotopes: 59x (59.015 amu) and 62x (62.011 amu). the lighter isotope has an abunda
professor190 [17]

The atomic mass of the element would simply be equal to the sum of the weighted average of each isotope, that is:

atomic mass = 59.015 amu * 0.717 + 62.011 amu * (1 – 0.717)

<span>atomic mass = 59.863 amu</span>

Pick the correct pair of species that can form hydrogen bond with water. (A) CH, HCOOH (B) F, HCOOH (C) F .CH,OCH, (D) Both (B)
Xelga [282]

Answer:

(B) F⁻, HCOOH

Explanation:

(A) CH₄, HCOOH

(B) F⁻, HCOOH

(C) F⁻, CH₃-O-CH₃

The hydrogen bonds are formed when the hydrogen is found between two electronegative atoms such as oxygen (O), nitrogen (N) or florine (F).

O····H-O, F····H-O, O····H-N

(A) CH₄, HCOOH

- here methane CH₄ is not capable to form hydrogen bond with water

- formic acid HCOOH can form hydrogen bonds with water

H-C(=O)-O-H····OH₂

(B) F⁻, HCOOH

-both floride (F⁻) and formic acid can form hydrogen bonds with water

F····OH₂

H-C(=O)-O-H····OH₂

(C) F⁻, CH₃-O-CH₃

-  dimethyl-ether CH₃-O-CH₃ is not capable to form hydrogen bond with water

- floride (F⁻) can form hydrogen bonds with water

F····OH₂

How do differences in temperature effect air masses?
laiz [17]

Answer:

The difference in temperature causes differences in air pressure between the two spots. ... This causes the jet stream to dip farther south and the winds to blow stronger on either side of the jet stream in winter. The jet stream separates the very cold air mass at higher latitudes from the warmer air mass equatorward.

When cyclohexene is treated with KMnO4, H2O, the syn-1,2-diol is produced. What reaction occurs when benzene is similarly treate
Ulleksa [173]

Answer:

No reaction is observed

Explanation:

The benzene ring is aromatic. Being an aromatic ring, the benzene ring is remarkably stable to all reactions that destroy the aromatic ring.

Alkenes are oxidized to alkanols in the presence of KMnO4 but this reaction does not occur with benzene. However, substituted benzenes having hydrogen atoms attached to the substituent carbon atom can be oxidized to the corresponding carboxylic acid.
