A 9-ounce of glass contains 72 milligrams of vitamin

1 answer:

7 0

Answer: 7.2 ounces

Explanation:

1) Data:

- glass size: 9-ounce

- content of vitamin C: 72 milligrams


- glasssize: x

- content of vitamin C: 60 milligrams


2) Proportion


9 ounces / 75 mg = x / 60 mg


3) Solution:


9 ounces × 60 mg = 75 mg × x


⇒ x = 9 ounces × 60 mg / 75 mg = 7.2 ounces

How does the properties of matter in liquid and gas state allow the Herons fountain to work?

Varvara68 [4.7K]

Answer:

Heron's fountain is an hydraulic machine that works because or the pressure inside of the system. Water will flow from high gravitational potential energy to low gravitational potential energy. The two sides of the system will present different pressure because they have different fluids in it (water and air) and water pressure is higher than gas/air pressure, so it will flow.

It is important to take into account that the pressure in the columns is a function of the height of the fluid (water or air).

Explanation:

The properties of liquid:

- If a liquid is poured into a container, it will adapt to the container's shape

- In a liquid state, the molecules have a kinetic energy higher than in a solid state

- Liquid particles are not arranged in a regular way but they are very close to each other, that's why liquids have a definite volume.

- Force is spread in an even way through a liquid, so the liquid particles are displaced if an object is placed in it.

- Liquids, as solids, can't be compressed

The properies of gas:

- They are everywhere

- Gas molecules are disorganized and have a great deal of space between them

- Gas fill up any container and spread indefinitely

- Gas molecules have a high kinetic energy

- If gas is put under pressure, the space between particles will decrease and collisions between them will increase.

- If the temperature of the gas increases in a container, the pressure will increase; if the temperature decreases, the pressure sill decrease.

- It can be compressed

- Gas has no definite volume nor definite shape.

The Coriolis effect influences _____. neither wind speed nor wind direction wind speed both wind speed and wind direction wind d

Alona [7]

Answer: The correct answer is "wind direction".

Explanation:

Coriolis effect: This is an apparent deflection of moving air or water caused by the rotation of the earth.

Currents are created by wind. Their directions are determined by Coriolis effect.

Currents are created by wind. The earth is in constant motion. It describes the rotation of the earth which steers winds and the surface current. The ocean surface currents are deflected by Coriolis effect.

The direction of the wind blows from north and south towards equator.

Therefore, the Coriolis effect influences wind direction.

Given the following unbalanced chemical reaction: As + NaOH Na3AsO3 + H2 What would be the coefficient of the NaOH molecule in t

barxatty [35]

Answer: -

Explanation: -

The given unbalanced chemical equation is As + NaOH -- > Na3AsO3 + H2

We see there 3 sodium on the right side from Na3AsO3.

But there are only 1 sodium on the left from NaOH.

So we multiply NaOH by 3.

As + 3 NaOH -- > Na3AsO3 + H2

Now we see the number of Hydrogen on the left is 3.

But the number of hydrogens is 2 on the left.

So, we multiply to get both sides 6 hydrogen.

As + 6NaOH -- > Na3AsO3 + 3 H2

Rebalancing for Na,

As + 6NaOH -- > 2Na3AsO3 + 3 H2.

Finally balancing As,

2 As + 6 NaOH -- > 2Na3AsO3 + 3H2

The coefficient of the NaOH molecule in the balanced reaction is thus 6

A major component of gasoline is octane (C8H18). When octane is burned in air, it chemically reacts with oxygen gas (O2) to prod

Olin [163]

Answer:

The answer is 6.25g.

Explanation:

First create your balanced equation. This will give you the stoich ratios needed to answer the question:

2C8H18 + 25O2 → 16CO2 + 18H2O

Remember, we need to work in terms of NUMBERS, but the question gives us MASS. Therefore the next step is to convert the mass of O2 into moles of O2 by dividing by the molar mass:

7.72 g / 16 g/mol = 0.482 mol

Now we can use the stoich ratio from the equation to determine how many moles of H2O are produced:

x mol H2O / 0.482 mol O2 = 18 H2O / 25 O2

x = 0.347 mol H2O

The question wants the mass of water, so convert moles back into mass by multiplying by the molar mass of water:

0.347 mol x 18 g/mol = 6.25g
