Answer: Polar Easterlies

Explanation: Winds flow from high pressure areas to low pressure areas. They originate in the north and south pole creating high pressure zones which generates an outflow. This outflow is then directed from east to west and hence the term used to describe these winds is Polar Easterlies.

13. A mixture of MgCO3 and MgCO3.3H2O has a mass of 3.883 g. After heating to drive off all the water the mass is 2.927 g. What
rjkz [21]

Answer:

63.05% of MgCO3.3H2O by mass

Explanation:

<em>of MgCO3.3H2O in the mixture?</em>

The difference in masses after heating the mixture = Mass of water. With the mass of water we can find its moles and the moles and mass of MgCO3.3H2O to find the mass percent as follows:

<em>Mass water:</em>

3.883g - 2.927g = 0.956g water

<em>Moles water -18.01g/mol-</em>

0.956g water * (1mol/18.01g) = 0.05308 moles H2O.

<em>Moles MgCO3.3H2O:</em>

0.05308 moles H2O * (1mol MgCO3.3H2O / 3mol H2O) =

0.01769 moles MgCO3.3H2O

<em>Mass MgCO3.3H2O -Molar mass: 138.3597g/mol-</em>

0.01769 moles MgCO3.3H2O * (138.3597g/mol) = 2.448g MgCO3.3H2O

<em>Mass percent:</em>

2.448g MgCO3.3H2O / 3.883g Mixture * 100 =

<h3>63.05% of MgCO3.3H2O by mass</h3>

Three common gaseous compounds of nitrogen and oxygen of different elementary composition are known: (A) laughing gas containing
Ede4ka [16]

Answer:

Please find how these data prove the law of multiple proportions below

Explanation:

The law of multiple proportions was proposed by an English chemist called John Dalton. The law states that when two elements combine and to form more than one compound. The weights/masses of the second element in the two compounds, which combines with a fixed ratio of the first element, is in a simple whole number ratio.

In this question, Nitrogen is said to combine with oxygen to give three different compounds as follows:

A) laughing gas containing 63.65% nitrogen i.e. 0.6365g

This means that the mass of oxygen will be (1-0.6365) = 0.3635g

B) colorless gas containing 46.68% nitrogen i.e. 0.4668g

This means that the mass of oxygen will be 0.5332g

C) brown toxic gas containing 30.45% nitrogen i.e. 0.3045g

This means that the mass of oxygen will be 0.6955g

The ratios of oxygen in the three compounds is therefore:

0.3635: 0.5332: 0.6955

Divide this ratio by the smallest number (0.3635)

0.3635/0.3635 = 1

0.5332/0.3635 = 1.467

0.6955/0.3635 = 1.913

Multiply this ratio by 2, we have:

2: 2.9 : 3.8

Hence, the simple whole number ratio is 2:3:4.

This proves the law of multiple proportions that oxygen is in simple whole number ratio in the three different compounds.

The cube has a mass of 72.9 g.<br><br> What is its density in g/cm3? <br><br> What substance is it?
sashaice [31]
If the cube is 3 cm on each side, then it has a volume of 27 cm^3 (3 x 3 x 3). Density is mass divided by volume, so its density is 72.9/27 = 2.7 g/cm^3. 

<span>Going by the density, the cube is made of Aluminium - density is a fairly unique quantity</span>

One liter of air contains about 0.21 L of oxygen. When filled, the human lungs hold about 6.0 L of air. How much oxygen is in th
masya89 [10]
Since we are told that 1L of air contains 0.21L of oxygen, you can use the conversion (0.21L O₂)/(1L air).  That means that you can just multiply 6.0L by 0.21L to get 1.26L of O₂.
that means that the lungs can hold about 1.26L of oxygen.
I hope this helps.  Let me know if anything is unclear.
