<span>A capital letter or a combination of a capital letter and a small letter that is used to represent an element is called Chemical symbol.

</span>All chemical elements have their chemical symbols consisting of one or two Latin letters. A chemical symbol is a chemical element mark. For the symbol of a chemical element it takes the first letter of its name in Latin, and if several elements have a name that begins with the same letter, in most of the symbols there is another characteristic letter from the name. The symbols are written in a large Latin letter, and if there is another letter, it is written a small.

How many uL are present in 250 mL of H20? (1 uL = 10^-6 Liters)​
Vanyuwa [196]

Answer:

250000 μL

Explanation:

If         1 L = 1000 mL

Then  X L = 250 mL

X = (1 × 250) / 1000 = 0.25 L

Now we can calculate the number of microliters (μL) in 0.25 L:

if        1 μL = 10⁻⁶ L

then   X μL = 0.25 L

X = (1 × 0.25) / 10⁻⁶  =250000 μL

How much energy is required to melt 10. 0 g of ice at 0. 0°C, warm it to 100. 0°c and completely vaporize the sample?
natta225 [31]

The 7160 cal energy is required to melt 10. 0 g of ice at 0. 0°C, warm it to 100. 0°C and completely vaporize the sample.

Calculation,

Given data,

Mass of the ice = 10 g

Temperature of ice =  0. 0°C

  • The ice at 0. 0°C is to be converted into water at 0. 0°C

Heat required at this stage = mas of the ice ×latent heat of fusion of ice

Heat required at this stage = 10 g×80 = 800 cal  

  • The temperature of the water is to be increased from 0. 0°C to 100. 0°C

Heat required for this = mass of the ice×rise in temperature×specific heat of water

Heat required for this  = 10 g×100× 1 = 1000 cal

  • This water at  100. 0°C  is to be converted into vapor.

Heat required for this = Mass of water× latent heat

Heat required for this  = 10g ×536 =5360 cal

Total energy or heat required = sum of all heat = 800 +1000+ 5360  = 7160 cal

When methane ( CH4 ) burns, it reacts with oxygen gas to produce carbon dioxide and water. The unbalanced equation for this reac
slega [8]
<h2>Answer:</h2>1.33*10^{-2}grams

<h2>Explanations</h2>

The complete balanced equation for the given reaction is expressed as;

CH_4(g)+2O_2(g)\rightarrow CO_2(g)+2H_2O(g)

Given the following parameters

Mass of CH4 = 5.90×10^−3 g = 0.0059grams

Determine the moles of methane

\begin{gathered} moles\text{ of CH}_4=\frac{mass}{molar\text{ mass}} \\ moles\text{ of CH}_4=\frac{0.0059}{16.04} \\ moles\text{ of CH}_4=0.000368moles \end{gathered}

According to stoichimetry, 1 mole of methane produces 2 moles of water, hence the moles of water required will be:

\begin{gathered} moles\text{ of H}_2O=\frac{2}{1}\times0.000368 \\ moles\text{ of H}_2O=0.000736moles \end{gathered}

Determine the mass of water produced

\begin{gathered} Mass\text{ of H}_2O=moles\times molar\text{ mass} \\ Mass\text{ of H}_2O=0.000736\times18.02 \\ Mass\text{ of H}_2O=0.0133grams=1.33\times10^{-2}grams \end{gathered}

Therefore the mass of water produced from the complete combustion of 5.90×10−3 g of methane is 1.33 * 10^-2grams
