The problem is giving us the volume, the density and is asking us for the mass. For this we can use the density equation (density=\frac{mass}{volume}) so we solve for mass which is our unknown(mass=density*volume).

We can´t just multiply this two because they are in different units so we solve this first by turning [gal] to [ml] with the equivalence of 1gal=3785.41 ml

29 gal *\frac{3785.41 ml}{1 gal} = 109776.89 ml

Now we can multiply:

mass=1.00\frac{g}{ml}*109776.89 ml=109776.89 g

The answer is requested in [pounds] so we solve this by turning [g] to [pounds] with the equivalence of 453.592 g =1 pound

109776.89 g *\frac{1 pound}{453.592 g} = 242.01 pounds

1. Convert gallons to mL. 1 gal = 3785.4117840007 mL, multiply that by 29 and get 109776.94173602 mL.

2. Since there is one gram per every mL, there are 109776.94173602 g of water in the fish tank.

3. Convert g to pounds. 1 g = 0.0022 pounds. Multiply 109776.94173602 by 0.0022 and end up with about 241.5 pounds of water.

SOVA2 [1]

Answer:

The solution becomes diluted.

Explanation:

When you add water to a solution, the number of moles of the solvent stays the same while the volume increases. Therefore, the molarity decreases.

Hope this helps!

Draw the major organic product in the reaction scheme below. Be sure to clearly show stereochemistry (if applicable).
Juliette [100K]

Answer:

see explanation below

Explanation:

You are missing the reaction scheme, but in picture 1, I found a question very similar to this, and after look into some other pages, I found the same scheme reaction, so I'm gonna work on this one, to show you how to solve it. Hopefully it will be the one you are asking.

According to the reaction scheme, in the first step we have NaNH2/NH3(l). This reactant is used to substract the most acidic hydrogen in the alkine there. In this case, it will substract the hydrogen from the carbon in the triple bond leaving something like this:

R: cyclopentane

R - C ≡ C (-)

Now, in the second step, this new product will experiment a SN2 reaction, and will attack to the CH3 - I forming another alkine as follow:

R - C ≡ C - CH3

Finally in the last step, Na in NH3 are reactants to promvove the hydrogenation of alkines. In this case, it will undergo hydrogenation in the triple bond and will form an alkene:

R - CH = CH - CH3

In picture 2, you have the reaction and mechanism.
