Answer:

273.9 fathom

Explanation:

Fathom (ftm) and rod are the units of length used in the imperial and the U.S. customary systems.

Fathom is an unit used for the measurement of depth of water. It is equal to 1.8288 m.

Rod, also known as perch or pole, is equal to 5.0292 m.

∵ 1 fathom = 0.364 rod

and 1 rod = 2.75 fathom

∴ 99.6 rod = 99.6 × 2.75 fathom = 273.9 fathom

<u>Therefore, maximum depth of Lake Tahoe = 99.6 rod = 273.9 fathom</u>

The enthalpy change for converting 1.00 mol of ice at -50.0°c to water at 70.0°c is __________ kj. the specific heats of ice, wa
kogti [31]
First, calculate for the amount of heat used up for increasing the temperature of ice.

      H = mcpdT
       H = (18 g)*(2.09 J/g-K)(50 K) = 1881 J

Then, solve for the heat needed to convert the phase of water.
    H = (1 mol)(6.01 kJ/mol) = 6.01 kJ = 6010 J

Then, solve for the heat needed to increase again the temperature of water.
    H = (18 g)(4.18 J/gK)(70 k)
    H = 5266.8 J

The total value is equal to 13157.8 J

Answer: 13157.8 J

What is being cycled??
swat32
Water is constantly being cycled between the atmosphere, the ocean and land. This cycling is a very important process that helps sustain life on Earth. As the water evaporates, vapors rise, and condense into clouds. The clouds move over land, and precipitation falls in the form of rain, ice, or snow.

A hydrogen halide diffuses 1.49 times faster than HBr. This hydrogen halide is
marysya [2.9K]

To solve this problem, we must assume ideal gas behaviour so that we can use Graham’s law:

vA / vB = sqrt (MW_B / MW_A)

where,

<span>vA = speed of diffusion of A  (HBR)</span>

vB = speed of diffusion of B (unknown)

MW_B = molecular weight of B (unkown)

MW_A = molar weight of HBr = 80.91 amu

 

We know from the given that:

vA / vB = 1 / 1.49

 

So,

1/1.49 = sqrt (MW_B / 80.91)

MW_B = 36.44 g/mol

 

Since this unknown is also hydrogen halide, therefore this must be in the form of HX.

HX = 36.44 g/mol , therefore:

x = 35.44 g/mol

 

From the Periodic Table, Chlorine (Cl) has a molar mass of 35.44 g/mol. Therefore the hydrogen halide is:

HCl

Which highly reactive gas was probably absent from the Earth's primitive atmosphere? O2 (oxygen gas) water vapor methane carbon
rosijanka [135]
Oxygen gas was most likely absent from Earth's primitive atmosphere.  The current theory is that the Earth's early atmosphere was composed of mainly carbon dioxide and methane due to the high volcanic activity.  Cyanobacteria and their use of photosynthesis was what caused earth's atmosphere to become oxygen enriched.
I hope that helps.
