2mm=2,000,000 nm
2,000,000/25=80,000
The answer is 80,000 polio viruses

Answer:

80,000

Explanation:

First, the diameters of both must be in the same unit. Converting the pinhead diameter from millimeter to nanometer, we get:

2mm = 2*10^6 nm

To get the number of polio viruses that fit at the head of the pin, divide the pin size by the amount of virus in nanometers:

2*10^6 = 2,000,000

2,000,000 / 25 = 80,000

This concludes that 80,000 polio viruses fit the pinhead.

How many moles of sodium atoms do you have if you have 5.60 ~
Papessa [141]

Answer:

0.93 mol

Explanation:

Given data:

Number of moles of Na atom = ?

Number of atoms = 5.60× 10²³

Solution:

Avogadro number:

The given problem will solve by using Avogadro number.

It is the number of atoms , ions and molecules in one gram atom of element, one gram molecules of compound and one gram ions of a substance. The number 6.022 × 10²³ is called Avogadro number.

1 mole = 6.022 × 10²³ atoms

5.60× 10²³ atoms ×  1 mol / 6.022 × 10²³ atoms

0.93 mol

Classify the following as either solutions or colloids. If a colloid, name the type of colloid and identify both the dispersed a
aev [14]

Answer:

a. glucose in water( solution)

b. smoke in air (colloids)

c. carbon dioxide in air (solution)

d. milk( colloids)

Explanation:

A solution is said to be formed when a solute dissolves in a solvent to form a homogeneous mixture. The solute particles are less than 10^-9m in size. Familiar solutions are those where the solute are dissolved in a liquid solvent. When the liquid water, the solution is known as an aqueous solution. A typical example is (glucose in water). In some other cases, the apparent solution of a solute in a solvent is accompanied by a chemical reaction and this is often known as a chemical reaction. A typical example is (carbon dioxide in air).

Colloids are also known as false solutions. Here, the individual solute particles are larger than the particles of the true solution, but not large enough to be seen by the naked eye. When a light beam is placed beside a beaker containing a colloid, the light rays of the beam can be clearly seen. This shows that it exhibits the Tyndall effect while a solution dosent exhibit such.

In a colloid, the liquid solvent is more appropriately know as the DISPERSION medium while the solid solute particles constitute the DISPERSED substance. This can either be solid, liquid or gas.

For example:

--> smoke in air : Dispersion medium is gas while the dispersed substance is solid.

--> milk: Dispersion medium is liquid while the dispersed substance is liquid.

a physical property can be observed while the substance remains the same in its chemical composition. true false
sweet [91]

While the material retains its chemical makeup, the physical property may be examined. The given statement is true.

The matter can undergo variations in physical or chemical properties. The physical changes of a matter occur when the matter undergoes changes in its physical properties like changes in the state of matter, weight, color, etc.

But the chemical composition of matter will remain constant if it undergoes a physical change. Whereas in chemical change, the matter undergoes a change in the composition of the substance but there will be no change in the physical properties.

Hence, The assertion is correct in that physical properties can be seen while the substance's chemical makeup stays constant.
