How does water filters work

Chemistry
1 answer:
Alexxandr [17]4 years ago
7 0
A water filter removes impurities from water by means of a fine physical barrier, a chemical process or a biological process. Filters cleanse water to different extents for purposes such as providing agricultural irrigation, accessible drinking water, public and private aquaria, and the safe use of ponds and swimming pools.

Combustion analysis of 63.8 mg of a c, h and o containing compound produced 145.0 mg of co2 and 59.38 mg of h2o. what is the emp
Makovka662 [10]
<span>: The empirical formula for the compound is C3H60 (see below) CO2 is the only product containing C, C produced = 145.0 mg CO2 x (1 g / 1000 mg) x (1 mole CO2 / 44.0 g CO2) x (1 mole C / 1 mole CO2) = 0.00330 moles C. H2O is the only product containing H, H produced = 59.38 mg H2O x (1 g / 1000 mg) x (1 mole H2O / 18.0 g H2O) x (2 moles H / 1 mole H2O) = 0.00660 moles H. Oxygen is in both and the unknown reacts with oxygen(in the air) 0.00330 moles C x (12.0 g C / 1 mole C) = 0.0396 g C = 39.6 mg C 0.00660 moles H x (1.01 g H / 1 mole H) = 0.00667 g H = 6.7 mg H Because the unknown weighed 63.8 mg and consists off justC, H, and O, then mass O = g unknown - g C - g H = 63.8 mg - 39.6 mg - 6.7 mg = 17.5 mg = 0.0175 g 0.0175 g O x (1 mole O / 16.0 g O) = 0.00109 moles O The mole ratio of C:H:O is: C = 0.00330 H = 0.00660 O = 0.00109 Divide by the smallest you get: C = 0.00330 / 0.00109 = 3.03 H = 0.00660 / 0.00109 = 6.06 O = 0.00109 / 0.00109 = 1.00</span>

Two ways friction is harmful when riding a bike
Nat2105 [25]
If your bike isn't the right size, your legs could be rubbing up against the seat of your bike. The friction can chafe the skin on your legs. If you were to crash your bike, skidding on the ground can cause anywhere from minor scrapes to serious friction burns.

Sodium hydroxide, NaoH , is a strong base that is used im industrial synthesis and processes such as making paper. What is the m
valentinak56 [21]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

1.926 g of NaOH

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

Concept tested: Mole and Avogadro's number

  • We need to know that , 1 mole of a compound contains number of molecules equivalent to the Avogadro's number.
  • Th Avogadro's number is 6.022 × 10^23

Therefore;

  • 1 mole of a compound = 6.022 × 10^23 molecules

In this case; Our compound is NaOH

Therefore;

1 mole of NaOH contains 6.022 × 10^23 molecules

But; Molar mass of NaOH is 40.0 g/mol

Therefore;

  • 40.0 g of NaOH contains 6.022 × 10^23 molecules

With this we can calculate the mass of 2.90 × 10^22 molecules

  • Mass of a compound = (number of molecules ÷ Avogadro's constant) × molar mass

Therefore;

Mass of NaOH =(2.90 × 10^22 molecules ÷ 6.022 × 10^23 molecules)40g

                        = 1.9263 g

                        = 1.926 g NaOH

Thus, the mass of NaOH is 1.926 g

What were the expected results of Rutherford’s gold foil experiment, based on Thomson’s model of the atom? How did the real resu
forsale [732]
<span>The expected results of the Rutherford's gold foil experiment were that the relative massive alpha particles (respect to electrons) could go through the gold foil without being deviated of their trajectory or only small deviations due to the uniformly distributed positive charge of the protons. The real results showed that some particles were significantly deviated of the trajectory (large deviation angles and even some particles bounced back to the source). This lead Rutherford to reject the plum pudding model and propose a new one. The new model proposed by Rutherford was that the atom consisted of a small and every dense nucleus (which contained the positive charge, protons) and a vast region, almost empty, but where the electrons were, surrounding the nucleus.</span><span />
