The Spirit of America Goodyear blimp has a volume of 2.027×105 ft3.When the blimp is in operation, it is filled with helium gas.

If the density of helium at room temperature is 0.179 g/L, calculate the mass of helium in the blimp.

The mass of helium in the blimps is \boxed{10.2743{\text{ g}}}.

Further Explanation:

Density is defined as the mass of the substance per unit volume of the substance. It is represented by the symbol \rho. The density of a substance is calculated as follows:

\rho = \dfrac{{\text{M}}}{{\text{V}}}  

Here,

\rho is the density of the substance.

M is the mass of the substance.

V is the volume of the substance.

The formula to calculate the density of helium is as follows:

{\text{Density of helium}} = \dfrac{{{\text{Mass of helium}}}}{{{\text{Volume of helium}}}}                            …… (1)                                  

Rearrange equation (2) to calculate the mass of helium.

{\text{Mass of helium}} = \left( {{\text{Density of helium}}} \right)\left( {{\text{Volume of helium}}} \right)                …… (2)              

The volume of the blimp is 2.027 \times {10^5}{\text{ f}}{{\text{t}}^3}. This is to be converted into L. The conversion factor for this is,

1{\text{ f}}{{\text{t}}^3} = 28.3168{\text{ L}}  

Since the blimp is filled with helium, the volume of the blimp becomes equal to that of helium. Therefore the volume of helium can be calculated as follows:

\begin{aligned}{\text{Volume of helium}} &= \left( {2.027 \times {{10}^5}{\text{ f}}{{\text{t}}^3}} \right)\left( {\frac{{28.3168{\text{ L}}}}{{1{\text{ f}}{{\text{t}}^3}}}} \right)\\&= 57.3982{\text{ L}}\\\end{aligned}  

Substitute 0.179 g/L for the density of helium and 57.3982 L for the volume of helium in equation (2).

\begin{aligned}{\text{Mass of helium}}&= \left( {{\text{0}}{\text{.179 g/L}}} \right)\left( {{\text{57}}{\text{.3982 L}}} \right)\\&= 10.2743{\text{ g}}\\\end{aligned}  

Therefore the mass of helium is 10.2743 g.

Answer: 1.027 x 10^6 g= 1027kg
In this question, you are given the volume of the blimp (2.027×10^5 ft^3) and the density of the gas(0.179g/L). To answer this question, you need to convert the volume unit into liter. The calculation would be: 2.027×10^5 ft^3 x 28.3168L/ft3= 57.398 x 10^5L= 5.74x10^6L

Then to find the mass, multiply the volume with the density. The calculation would be: 5.74x10^6L x 0.179g/L= 1.027 x 10^6 g= 1027kg

PolarNik [594]

Hello, Thanks for making your post on brainly!

I would say the best answer is C)Mixture

A mixer is made by combining 2 or more elements, but your not making a new element. And there are no chemical reactions happening to make a new element.

Hope this helps. Have a great day.

A serving of Cheez-Its releases 1.30 x 10^4 kcal (1 kcal = 4.18 kJ) when digested by your body. If this same amount of energy we
kondor19780726 [428]

Answer:

The final temperature is:- 7428571463.57 °C

Explanation:

The expression for the calculation of heat is shown below as:-

Q=m\times C\times \Delta T

Where,  

Q  is the heat absorbed/released

m is the mass

C is the specific heat capacity

\Delta T  is the temperature change

Thus, given that:-

Mass of water = 1.75 mg = 0.00175 g ( 1 g = 0.001 mg)

Specific heat of water = 4.18 J/g°C

Initial temperature = 35 °C

Final temperature = x °C

\Delta T=(x-35)\ ^0C/tex]
Q = [tex]1.3\times 10^4 kcal

Also, 1 kcal = 4.18 kJ = 4.18\times 10^3 J

So, Q = 1.3\times 10^4\times 4.18\times 10^3 J = 54340000 J

So,  

54340000=0.00175\times 4.18\times (x-35)

0.00175\times \:4.18\left(x-35\right)=54340000

x-35=\frac{54340000}{0.007315}

x=7428571463.57

Thus, the final temperature is:- 7428571463.57 °C

How much heat is required, in calories, to raise the temperature of 57.8 g of silver from
Stella [2.4K]

Answer:

87.3 calories of heat is required.

Explanation:

Heat = mcΔT

m= mass, c = specific heat of silver, T = temperature

H= 57.8 g * 0.057 cal/g°C * ( 43.5 - 17 °C)

H = 57.8 * 0.057 * 26.5

H = 87.3069 cal.

The heat required to raise the temperature of 57.8 g of silver from 17 °C to 43.5 °C is 87.3 calories.

Which statement describes the bonds in iron sulfate, FeSO4?
Feliz [49]

___

Regarding the bonds in FesO₄, Fe and S have an ionic bond, while S and O have covalent bonds.

Elements form bonds to increase their stability. The main types of bonds are:

  • Metallic bonds: they are formed between metals and the electrons are in a delocalized cloud.
  • Ionic bonds: they are formed between metals (lose electrons) and nonmetals (gain electrons)
  • Covalent bonds: they are formed between nonmetals, which share electrons.

Regarding the bonds in FesO₄:

  • Fe is a metal and S a nonmetal, thus they will form ionic bonds.
  • S and O are both nonmetals, thus they will form covalent bonds.

Regarding the bonds in FesO₄, Fe and S have an ionic bond, while S and O have covalent bonds.
