1. What is the relationship between science and society?

1 answer:

7 0

Societies have changed over time, and consequently, so has science. For example, during the first half of the 20th century, when the world was enmeshed in war, governments made funds available for scientists to pursue research with wartime applications — and so science progressed in that direction, unlocking the mysteries of nuclear energy. At other times, market forces have led to scientific advances. For example, modern corporations looking for income through medical treatment, drug production, and agriculture, have increasingly devoted resources to biotechnology research, yielding breakthroughs in genomic sequencing and genetic engineering. And on the flipside, modern foundations funded by the financial success of individuals may invest their money in ventures that they deem to be socially responsible, encouraging research on topics like renewable energy technologies. Science is not static; it changes over time, reflecting shifts in the larger societies in which it is embedded

0.000431 L<br><br> Express your answer as an integer.

Molodets [167]

A whole number, not a fraction, that can be negative, positive or zero are integers. They cannot have decimal places.

Now, converting 0.000431 L to decimal an integer as:

$0.000431 L = 431\times 10^{-6} L$

Since, $1 L = 10^{6} \mu L$

So, $431\times 10^{-6} L\times \frac{10^{6 \mu L}}{1 L} = 431 \mu L$ .

Hence, the integer value for 0.000431 L is $431 \mu L[$ .

How much heat is gained when a 50.32g piece of aluminum is heated from 9.0°c to 16°c

Rashid [163]

Answer: 317 joules

Explanation:

The quantity of heat energy (Q) gained by aluminium depends on its Mass (M), specific heat capacity (C) and change in temperature (Φ)

Thus, Q = MCΦ

In this case,

Q = ?

Mass of aluminium = 50.32g

C = 0.90J/g°C

Φ = (Final temperature - Initial temperature)

= 16°C - 9°C = 7°C

Then, Q = MCΦ

Q = 50.32g x 0.90J/g°C x 7°C

Q = 317 joules

Thus, 317 joules of heat is gained.

Urea, (NH2)2CO, is a product of metabolism of proteins. An aqueous solution is 37.2% urea by mass and has a density of 1.032 g/m

Feliz [49]

Answer:

The molarity of urea in this solution is 6.39 M.

Explanation:

Molarity (M) is <em>the number of moles of solute in 1 L of solution</em>; that is

$molarity = moles of solute ÷ liters of solution$

To calculate the molality, we need to know the number of moles of urea and the volume of solution in liters. We assume 100 grams of solution.

Our first step is to calculate the moles of urea in 100 grams of the solution,

using the molar mass a conversion factor. The total moles of 100g of a 37.2 percent by mass solution is

60.06 g/mol ÷ 37.2 g = 0.619 mol

Now we need to calculate the volume of 100 grams of solution, and we use density as a conversion factor.

1.032 g/mL ÷ 100 g = 96.9 mL

This solution contains 0.619 moles of urea in 96.9 mL of solution. To express it in molarity, we need to calculate the moles present in 1000 mL (1 L) of the solution.

0.619 mol/96.9 mL × 1000 mL= 6.39 M

Therefore, the molarity of the solution is 6.39 M.
