The proprietor of a rock shop insists that a nugget is pure gold. if the nugget occupies a volume of 5.40 ml, what would its mas

Density of gold = 19.3 g/mL

Density can be calculated from volume and mass of a substance as follows,

Density = \frac{Mass}{Volume}

Given the volume of gold nugget = 5.40 mL

Calculating the mass of gold nugget from density and volume:

Density = \frac{Mass}{Volume}

Mass = Density * Volume

5.40 mL * 19.3 \frac{g}{mL} =104.22 g

Therefore, the mass of the nugget is 104.22 g

The enthalpy of a pure liquid at 75oC is 100 J/mol. The enthalpy of the pure vapor of that substance at 75oC is 1000 J/mol. What
pentagon [3]

Answer:

900 J/mol

Explanation:

Data provided:

Enthalpy of the pure liquid at 75° C = 100 J/mol

Enthalpy of the pure vapor at 75° C = 1000 J/mol

Now,

the heat of vaporization is the the change in enthalpy from the liquid state to the vapor stage.

Thus, mathematically,

The heat of vaporization at 75° C

=  Enthalpy of the pure vapor at 75° C - Enthalpy of the pure liquid at 75° C

on substituting the values, we get

The heat of vaporization at 75° C = 1000 J/mol - 100 J/mol

or

The heat of vaporization at 75° C = 900 J/mol

A piece of charcoal is found to contain
Naddika [18.5K]

Answer: The tree died 9709.46 years before.

Explanation:

Expression for rate law for first order kinetics is given by:

t=\frac{2.303}{k}\log\frac{a}{a-x}

where,

k = rate constant  

t = age of sample

a = let initial amount of the reactant = 100

a - x = amount left after decay process = \frac{30}{100}\times 100=30

a) to find rate constant

Half life is the amount of time taken by a radioactive material to decay to half of its original value.

t_{\frac{1}{2}}=\frac{0.693}{k}

k=\frac{0.693}{5600years}=1.24\times 10^{-4}years^{-1}

b) to know the age

t=\frac{2.303}{1.24\times 10^{-4}}\log\frac{100}{30}

t=9709.46years

The tree died 9709.46 years before.

How hydrogen gas help to make vegetable ghee​
vladimir1956 [14]

Answer:

The vegetable oils are liquid at room temperature. They contain double bonds. During hydrogenation double bonds break hydrogen is introduced and form vegetable ghee.

Explanation:

Hydrogenation:

It is the chemical process in which hydrogen is introduced in unsaturated hydrocarbons in the presence of catalyst Ni.

Simple hydrogenation reaction:

H₂C = CH₂ + H₂    →     CH₃-CH₃

                            Ni

Hydrogenation is used on industrial level in  the production of vegetable ghee.

The unsaturated hydrocarbons, fatty acids undergoes hydrogenation and form ghee.

The vegetable oils are liquid at room temperature. They contain double bonds. During hydrogenation double bonds break hydrogen is introduced and form vegetable ghee.

Refer to a periodic table and tell how many helium atoms (He) would be needed to
marysya [2.9K]
About 4. the weight of He is about 4 amus and the weight of O is about 16 amus, so you would need 4 He atoms to get close to the same mass as an O atom. i hope this helps
