The overall balanced chemical reaction for this is:

Detonation of Nirtoglycerin 
4 C3H5N3O9 --> 12 CO2 + 6 N2 + O2 + 10 H2O

Therefore:

2.00 mL x 1.592 g/mL = 3.184 g 
3.184 g / 227.1 /mol = 0.0140 mol nitroglycerin
4 moles --> 12 + 6 + 1 + 10 = 29 moles of gas
0.0140 mol x (29/4) = 0.1017 moles of gases or (0.102 mol)

You need to determine the specific gravity of a sample. After putting the sample on a lab scale, you know it has a mass of 85 gr

BlackZzzverrR [31]

Answer:

Specific gravity of the sample = 8.947

Explanation:

Specific gravity of a substance is defined as the density of that substance divided by the density of water.

Density of water = 1000g/l

Density of substance = mass/volume

= 85/9.5 x 10^-3

= 8947.37 g/l

SG = 8947.37/1000

= 8.947

science of love

,EXPLANATION:

The initial happy feelings of being in love is stimulated by 3 chemicals in the brain: noradrenaline that stimulates adrenaline production causing that racing heart and sweaty palms; dopamine, the feel-good chemical; and phenylethylamine that is released when we're near our crush, giving us butterflies in our tummies.
