A mothball, composed of naphthalene (c10h8), has a mass of 1.64 g . part a how many naphthalene molecules does it contain?

1 answer:

3 0

The molar mass of Naphthalene is 128g/mol
Therefore; a mass of 1.64 g of Naphthalene contains'
= 1.64g/128 g
= 0.0128 moles
But, from the Avogadro's law 1 mole of a substance contains 6.022 × 10^23 particles
Therefore 1 mole of Naphthalene contains 6.022×10^23 molecules
Hence; 0.0128 moles × 6.022 ×10^23 molecules
= 7.716 × 10^21 molecules

5 Questions to answer please

ryzh [129]

1.Type of bonding in which electrons are completely transferred is called ionic bond.
2. Isotopes have same atomic number but different atomic mass number.
Atomic number = number of protons + number of neutrons
Therefore, A is correct.
3. Nucleus is composed of neutrons and protons.
4. Chemical reactions follows the law of conservation of mass. Therefore mass of reactant = mass of product = 4 grams.
5. Again, mass of table salt formed should be equal to mass of (Na+Cl₂) = 4 grams.

madreJ [45]

Answer:

B. use a new pair of gloves for each piece of evidence

Explanation:

When it comes to the basic precautions of handling biological evidence samples, one has to prevent cross contamination. This refers to the<em> transfer of DNA from one evidence to another evidence</em>; thus, it is important for Jane to use a new pair of gloves for each piece of evidence in order to prevent such occurrence.

Wearing of gloves will also <em>prevent Jane's DNA from being implanted into the sample</em>, and it will keep her safe from contracting blood-borne pathogens like those in the saliva, blood or semen.

Which formula can be used to find velocity if kinetic energy and mass are known?

astraxan [27]

Answer:

$v = \sqrt{ \frac{2ke}{m} }$

option D is the correct option.

Here,

If an object of mass 'm' moving with a velocity'v' then,

$kinetic \: energy = \frac{1}{2} m {v}^{2} \\ \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: {v}^{2} = \frac{2ke}{m} \\ \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: {v}^{2} = \sqrt{ \frac{2ke}{m} }$

hope this helps...
