Is Italian salad dressing a pure substance or a mixture ?

Which symbol represents an atom in the ground state with the most stable valence electron configuration?

Pani-rosa [81]

A stable electron configuration has 8 valence electrons and a full octet, meaning that their would be a "happy" atom and it would be non reactive.

A copper ore containing 4.3 wt% water, 10.3 wt% CuSO, and 85.3 wt% rock is fed to a staged counter current extractor at a rate o

Serga [27]

Answer:

6 stages

Explanation:

Given:

Copper ore contains:

4.3 wt% water

10.3 wt% CuSO₄

85.3 wt% rock

Feed rate = 11.7 tons per hour

solution produced is to be 10 wt% copper sulfate

90 wt% water

Now,

The CuSO₄ supplied through the feed = 10.3 wt% CuSO₄ × Feed rate

= 0.103 × 11.7

= 1.2051 tons per hour

also,

At each stage 2 tons of solution is collected

therefore,

The CuSO₄ collected in each stage

= weight of solution × 10 wt% copper sulfate

= 2 tons per hour × 0.1

= 0.2 tons per hour

also,

98% of the CuSO₄ is to be recovered

thus,

the amount of CuSO₄ to be recovered

= 0.98 × CuSO₄ supplied through the feed

= 0.98 × 1.2051 tons per hour

= 1.180998

Therefore,

The number of stages required = $\frac{\textup{amount of CuSO₄ to be recovered }}{\textup{CuSO₄ collected in each stage }}$

= $\frac{\textup{1.180998}}{\textup{0.2}}$

= 5.90499 ≈ 6 stages

A 15.0 L tank of gas is contained at a high pressure of 8.20 x 10^4 torr. The tank is opened and the gas expands into an empty c

Inga [223]

Answer:

20.5torr

Explanation:

Given parameters:

V₁ = 15L

P₁ = 8.2 x 10⁴torr

V₂ = 6 x 10⁴L

Unknown:

P₂ = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem we have to apply the claims of Boyle's law.

Boyle's law is given mathematically as;

P₁ V₁ = P₂V₂

where P₁ is the initial pressure

V₁ is the initial volume

P₂ is final pressure

V₂ is final volume

8.2 x 10⁴ x 15 = P₂ x 6 x 10⁴

P₂ = 20.5torr

Calculate the volume in liters of a 0.00231M copper(II) fluoride solution that contains 175.g of copper(II) fluoride CuF2. Be su

Free_Kalibri [48]

Answer:

Volume = 746 L

Explanation:

Given that:- Mass of copper(II) fluoride = 175 g

Molar mass of copper(II) fluoride = 101.543 g/mol

The formula for the calculation of moles is shown below:

$moles = \frac{Mass\ taken}{Molar\ mass}$

Thus,

$Moles= \frac{175\ g}{101.543\ g/mol}$

$Moles_{copper(II)\ fluoride}= 1.7234\ mol$

Also,

Considering:

$Molarity=\frac{Moles\ of\ solute}{Volume\ of\ the\ solution}$

So,,

$Volume =\frac{Moles\ of\ solute}{Molarity}$

Given, Molarity = 0.00231 M

So,

$Volume =\frac{1.7234}{0.00231}\ L$

<u>Volume = 746 L</u>
