Answer:

a) False

b) False

c) True

Explanation:

a) Most sulfur oxides formed during combustion come from sulfur in the air: The sulfur burns in presence of oxygen to produce sulfur oxides, the source of sulfur is anthropogenic activities (Human activities).

So the given statement is false.

b) A flue gas scrubber removes SO2 pollution in a coal-fired power plant by using lime to convert the SO2 into alcohols:

False

The lime reacts with sulfur dioxide to give carbon dioxide and calcium sulfite.

$CaCO_{3}+SO_{2}--->CaSO_{3}+CO_{2}$

c) True

A typical refrigerator is kept at 4˚C, and a soda can has a pressure of

ss7ja [257]

Answer: The new pressure will be 1.42 atm

Explanation:

To calculate the final pressure of the system, we use the equation given by Gay-Lussac Law. This law states that pressure of the gas is directly proportional to the temperature of the gas at constant pressure.

Mathematically,

$\frac{P_1}{T_1}=\frac{P_2}{T_2}$

where,

$P_1\text{ and }T_1$ are the initial pressure and temperature of the gas.

$P_2\text{ and }T_2$ are the final pressure and temperature of the gas.

We are given:

$P_1=1.18atm\\T_1=4^0C=(4+273)K=277K\\P_2=?\\T_2=60^0C=(60+273)K=333K$

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$\frac{1.18}{277}=\frac{P_2}{333}\\\\P_2=1.42$

Hence, the new pressure will be 1.42 atm

How can NASA scientists use Newton's third law of motion to plan for a space vehicle landing on a meteor?

Svet_ta [14]

Answer:

NASA uses rockets to launch astronauts and supplies to the International Space Station. Launching a rocket relies on Newton's Third Law of Motion. A rocket engine produces thrust through action and reaction. The engine produces hot exhaust gases which flow out of the back of the engine.

Calculating molarity using solute moles A chemist prepares a solution of sodium chloride (NaCl) by measuring out 6.89 mol of sod

hram777 [196]

Answer: Concentration of the chemist's sodium chloride solution is 34.4 mol/L.

Explanation:

Molarity of a solution is defined as the number of moles of solute dissolved per Liter of the solution.

$Molarity=\frac{n\times 1000}{V_s}$

where,

n= moles of solute

$V_s$ = volume of solution in ml

Given : moles of $NaCl$ = 6.89

volume of solution = 200 ml

Putting in the values we get:

$Molarity=\frac{6.89\times 1000}{200}=34.4mol/L$

Thus the concentration of the chemist's sodium chloride solution is 34.4 mol/L.

Be sure to answer all parts. this is a two-part question. first, draw the minor alkene product that should be formed in the reac

kotykmax [81]

Answer:

See explanation below

Explanation:

The question is incomplete, however, I found a question very similar to this, and I'm assuming this is the question you are asking to answer. If it's not, please tell me which one it is. Here's a tip for you to get an idea of how to solve.

Picture 1, would be the original question. Picture 2 is the answer of it.

Now, This is a E1 reaction where this type of reactions are taking place in two steps. The first step is the formation of the carbon cation, this step is always slow. The secon step is the addition of a nucleophyle, or, in this case, formation of a pi bond, and we get a alkene.

Hope this can help you
