Two methanol-water mixtures are contained in separate tanks. The first mixture contains 40.0 wt% methanol and the second contain

s 70.0 wt% methanol. If 200 kg of the first mixture is combined with 150 kg of the second, what are the mass and composition of the product? How many independent material balances can be written?

Answer:

M_{per}= 52.86

W_{per}=47.14

Explanation:

<u>First mixture</u>:

40 wt% methanol - 60 wt% water 200 kg

m_{met1}=200 kg * 0.4= 80 kg

m_{wat1}=200 kg * 0.6= 120 kg

<u>Second mixture</u>:

70 wt% methanol - 30 wt% water 150 kg

m_{met2}=150 kg * 0.7= 105 kg

m_{wat2}=150 kg * 0.3= 45 kg

Final mixture:

m_{metF=80 kg + 105 kg= 185 kg

m_{watF}=120 kg + 45 = 165 kg

M_{per}=\frac{185 kg}{185 kg + 165 kg}*100= 52.86

W_{per}=\frac{165 kg}{185 kg + 165 kg}*100=47.14

If, the compositions are constant, the only variables are the mass of each mixture used in the final one, so there can be only one independent balance.

The bulb lights up in the circuit. Only two rods are conductors of electricity. Which one of the rods, X, Y or Z is definitely a
meriva

Answer: Rod X.

Explanation:

Ok, the electricity starts in the top left part. First, it must travel in the X rod, then it keeps traveling until it reaches the parallel path, and it can go to the Z rod, to the Y rod, or to both of them, and then it reaches the bulb (the circle with a X inside of it).

We know that two rods are conductors of electricity.

Now, suppose the case where rods Z and Y are the ones that conduct electricity, this means that X does not conduct electricity, then when the current reaches to X it stops (because X does not conduct) then the electricity never reaches the rods Z and Y, and then the electricity never reaches the bulb, but we know that the bulb lights up, so we must have that X is one of the conducting rods.

Then, if for example, Y does not conduct electricity, the electricity still can run through the Z rod and eventually reach the bulb.

So we can conclude that the rod that is definitely a conductor of electricity is rod X

The percent composition of calcium is ?
DochEvi [55]

Answer: 40.1%

Explanation: The mass of calcium in this compound is equal to 40.1 grams because there's one atom of calcium present and calcium has an atomic mass of 40.1 . The molar mass of the compound is 100.1 grams. Using the handy equation above, we get: Mass percent = 40.1 g Ca⁄100.1 g CaCO3 × 100% = 40.1% Ca.
