Answer:

C. cooler than both the crust and the core

Explanation:

It is observed that at the mantle, temperatures range from estimatedly 200 °C (392 °F) around the upper boundary with the crust to approximately 4,000 °C (7,230 °F) at the core-mantle boundary.

So we can say the mantle is cooler than both the crust and the core.

1. A gas having the following composition is burnt under a boiler with 50% excess air.

jeka94

The composition of the stack gas are :

$CH_4$ = 0.8713

$C_3H_8$ = 0.0202

CO = 0.107

<h3 /><h3>What is a mole fraction?</h3>

The ratio of the number of moles of one component of a solution or other mixture to the total number of moles representing all of the components.

Assuming 100 g of the stack gas. Calculate the mass of each species in this sample according to their percentages.

Mass of $CH_4$ : 70% of 100 g = 70 g

Mass of $C_3H_8$ : 15% of 100 g = 15 g

Mass of CO : 15% of 100 g = 15 g

Now calculate the number of moles of each species:

Number of moles of $CH_4$ : $\frac{70 g}{16.04 g/mol}$ = 4.3 mole

Number of moles of $C_3H_8$ : $\frac{15 g}{144.1 g/mol}$ = 0.10 mole

Mass of CO : $\frac{15 g}{28.01 g/mol}$ = 0.53 mole

Now to calculate the mole fraction of each we use the formula:

Mole fraction of $CH_4$ : $\frac{4.3}{4.935}$ = 0.8713

Mole fraction of $C_3H_8$ : $\frac{0.10}{4.935}$ = 0.0202

Mole fraction of CO : $\frac{0.53}{4.935}$ = 0.107

Hence, composition of the stack gas are:

$CH_4$ = 0.8713

$C_3H_8$ = 0.0202

CO = 0.107

A substance that can be broken down into simpler subtend only by a chemical change is aa. homogenous mixtureb. heterogeneous mix

Natasha2012 [34]

Answer:

d. compound

Explanation:

<u>Mixture </u>: It is defined as the substance that is made by the combination of two or more different components which are physically combined.

<u>Homogeneous mixture</u> are the mixtures in which the composition of the substances in it are uniformly mixed. <u>Heterogeneous mixture</u> are the mixtures in which the composition of the substances in it are not uniformly mixed.

<u> Compound :</u> It is a pure substance which is made from atoms of different elements combined together in a fixed ratio by mass and are chemically bonded.

<u> Element :</u> It is a pure substance which is composed of atoms of similar elements.

<u>As discussed above, The different elements in the compounds are chemically bonded and hence, it is the substance which can be broken down into the simpler units when it subtend only by the chemical change.</u>

What is the mass of 1.71 ✕ 1023 molecules of h2so4?

Anuta_ua [19.1K]

The equation for calculating a mass is as follows:

m=n×M

Molar mass (M) we can determine from Ar that can read in a periodical table, and a number of moles we can calculate from the available date for N:

n(H2SO4)=N/NA

n(H2SO4)= 1.7×10²³ / 6 × 10²³

n(H2SO4)= 0.3 mole

Now we can calculate a mass of H2SO4:

m(H2SO4) = n×M = 0.3 × 98 = 27.8 g
