In order to find out the %mass dolomite in the soil, calculate for the mass of dolomite using the information given from the titration procedure. You would need to multiply 57.85 ml with 0.3315 M HCl and you would get the amount of HCl in millimoles. Then multiply the amount of HCl with 1/2 (given that for every 1 mol of dolomite, 2 mol of HCl would be needed). Convert the amount of dolomite to mass by multiplying the millimoles with the molecular weight which is 184.399. Then convert the mass to grams which is 1.768 grams. Divide the mass of dolomite (1.768 grams) with the weight of soil sample. The % mass is 7.17.

Plants are responsibe for a very important energy transformation what answer
Soloha48 [4]

Plants are chlorophyll-containing photosynthetic organisms. Thus, they convert solar or radiant energy into chemical energy under the process termed as photosynthesis.

<u>Explanation:</u>

  • Plants are chlorophyll-containing photosynthetic living beings. Consequently, they convert radiant energy into chemical energy under the procedure named  photosynthesis.  
  • Except for remote ocean hydro-thermal environment, the sun is the only source for all biological systems on earth. Plants catch just 2-10 percent of the solar radiation and transmit it as chemical energy. All creatures are reliant for their nourishment on producers (plants), either directly or indirectly. So there is a stream of energy from the sun (radiant energy) to producers and then to consumers (chemical energy).

The half life for the first order conversion of A to B is 56.6 hours. How long does it take for the concentration of A to decrea
sveta [45]

Answer:

It will take 188.06 hours for the concentration of A to decrease 10.0% of its original concentration.

Explanation:

A → B

Initial concentration of the reactant = x

Final concentration of reactant = 10% of x = 0.1 x

Time taken by the sample, t = ?

Formula used :

A=A_o\times e^{-\lambda t}\\\\\lambda =\frac{0.693}{t_{\frac{1}{2}}}

where,

A_o = initial concentration of reactant

A = concentration of reactant left after the time, (t)

t_{\frac{1}{2}} = half life of the first order conversion  = 56.6 hour

\lambda = rate constant

A=A_o\times e^{-(\frac{0.693}{t_{1/2}})\times t}

Now put all the given values in this formula, we get

0.1x=x\times e^{-(\frac{0.693}{56.6 hour})\times t}

t = 188.06 hour

It will take 188.06 hours for the concentration of A to decrease 10.0% of its original concentration.

The molar mass of an unknown gas was measured by an effusion experiment. It was found that it took 60 s for the gas to effuse, w
Marizza181 [45]

Answer:

The molar mass of the gas is 44 g/mol

Explanation:

It is possible to solve this problem using Graham's law that says: Rates of effusion are inversely dependent on the square of the mass of each gas. That is:

\frac{r_1}{r_2} =\frac{\sqrt{M_2} }{\sqrt{M_1} }

If rate of effusion of nitrogen is Xdistance / 48s and for the unknown gas is X distance / 60s and mass of nitrogen gas is 28g/mol (N₂):

\frac{X/48s}{X/60s} =\frac{\sqrt{M_2} }{\sqrt{28g/mol} }

6,61 = √M₂

44g/mol = M₂

<em>The molar mass of the gas is 44 g/mol</em>

<em></em>

What would be the greatest difference in using an open ceramic coffee mug rather than an insulated mug with a lid as a calorimet
adoni [48]
The answer is number 4 or the exchange of energy with the surroundings. Calorimetry is a measurement of energy that is formed or absorbed in a certain process. The calorimeter is the instrument used in order to measure the energy. It is recommended that a calorimeter should be a closed system so as to measure precisely the energy and avoid or lessen the exchange of energy with the surroundings. Thus, comparing an open ceramic mug and an insulated mug with a lid, the greatest difference is the energy lost to the surroundings.
