The given question is incomplete. The complete question is as follows.

From the following formula, calculate the quantities required for each of the following ingredients to make 5 lb. (avoir) of hydrophilic ointment. All values to be in g, do not include units in your submitted answer; use no more than 3 decimal places. Convert using 1 lb = 454 g. Note: all values done by mass, including the water, so this is not a q.s situation (volume is irrelevant).

Methylparaben 0.25 g

Propylparaben 0.15 g

Sodium Lauryl Sulfate 10 g

Propylene Glycol 120 g

Stearyl Alcohol 240 g

White Petrolatum 250 g

Purified Water, to make 1000 g

Explanation:

For the given quantities, the sum is 620.4 g. Now, amount of purified water (to make 1000 g of ointment)  is as follows.

             1000 g - 620.4 g

           = 379.6 g

Now, to make 5 lb we will calculate the quantities as follows.

Formula weight = 1000 g

Therefore, desired quantity is as follows.

             5 lb = 5 x 454 g

                     = 2270 g

Hence, this means the factor is  calculated as follows.

       \frac{2270 g}{1000 g}

            = 2.27

Now, we will calculate the quantity of each ingredient using factor 2.27 as follows.

  • Methylparaben = 0.25 g x 2.27 = 0.5675 g
  • Propylparaben = 0.15 g x 2.27 = 0.3405 g
  • Sodium Lauryl Sulfate = 10 g x 2.27 = 22.7 g
  • Propylene Glycol = 120 g x 2.27 = 272.4 g
  • Stearyl Alcohol = 240 g x 2.27 = 544.8 g
  • White Petrolatum = 250 g x 2.27 = 567.5 g
  • Purified Water = 379.6 g x 2.27 = 861.692 g

How much energy (kJ) is required to change 0.18 mole of ice (s) at 0 C to water (l) at 0 C?
Dmitriy789 [7]

Answer:25,06 kJ of energy must be added to a 75 g block of ice.

ΔHfusion(H₂O) = 6,01 kJ/mol.

T(H₂O) = 0°C.

m(H₂O) = 75 g.

n(H₂O) = m(H₂O) ÷ M(H₂O).

n(H₂O) = 75 g ÷ 18 g/mol.

n(H₂O) = 4,17 mol.

Q = ΔHfusion(H₂O) · n(H₂O)

Q = 6,01 kJ/mol · 4,17 mol

Q = 25,06 kJ.

Select the pair that consists of a base and its conjugate acid in that order. CO32−/CO22−
lana [24]

Answer: The pair that consists of a base and its conjugate acid in that order.NH_3/NH_4^+

Explanation:

According to the Bronsted-Lowry conjugate acid-base theory, an acid is defined as a substance which looses donates protons and thus forming conjugate base and a base is defined as a substance which accepts protons and thus forming conjugate acid.

H_3PO_4\rightarrow H_PO_4{2^-}+2H^+

H_2CO_3\rightarrow HCO_3^-+H^+

NH_3+H^+\rightarrow NH_4^+

HCO_3^-\rightarrow CO_3^{2-}+H^+

NH_3  is gaining a proton, thus it is considered as a brønsted-lowry base and after gaining a proton, it formsNH_4^+  which is a conjugate acid.

Can you catch coronavirus from F.A.R.Ts?
ZanzabumX [31]

Answer:

No

Explanation:

Droplets or aerosols. When an infected person coughs, sneezes, or talks, droplets or tiny particles called aerosols carry the virus into the air from their nose or mouth. Anyone who is within 6 feet of that person can breathe it into their lungs.

Airborne transmission. Research shows that the virus can live in the air for up to 3 hours. It can get into your lungs if someone who has it breathes out and you breathe that air in.

Surface transmission. Another way to catch the new coronavirus is when you touch surfaces that someone who has the virus has coughed or sneezed on. You may touch a countertop or doorknob that's contaminated and then touch your nose, mouth, or eyes. The virus can live on surfaces like plastic and stainless steel for 2 to 3 days. To stop it, clean and disinfect all counters, knobs, and other surfaces you and your family touch several times a day.

Fecal-oral. Studies also suggest that virus particles can be found in infected people's poop. But experts aren't sure whether the infection can spread through contact with an infected person's stool. If that person uses the bathroom and doesn't wash their hands, they could infect things and people that they touch.
