How many pounds does 1.00 quart of mercury weight? its density is 13.6g/mL

2 answers:

5 0

Two steps by inspection 1 qt = 0.25 gallons, 13.6 g/mL = 13.6 kg/L

0.25 gallon x 3.785411784 L/gallon x 13.6 kg/L x 1 lb/0.45359237 kg = 28.374 lb.

Hope this Helps!

60 kg of fuel was completely burnt for an experiment. The amount of heat energy was found to be 180000KJ. Calculate calorific va

FrozenT [24]

Answer:

3000 kJ/kg

Explanation:

The calorific value of a substance is the amount of heat produced per unit mass by the combustion of the substance.

It is given by:

$C=\frac{Q}{m}$

where

Q is the amount of heat released

m is the mass of the fuel

In this problem, we have:

m = 60 kg is the mass of fuel

$Q=180,000 kJ$ is the amount of heat released

Therefore, the calorific value of the fuel is:

$C=\frac{180,000}{60}=3000 kJ/kg$

What happens to the population growth in a logistic growth pattern as it approaches carrying capacity?

AveGali [126]

B. slows down is your answer, obviously as it approaches carrying capacity, there would be less available space to find in the place of inhabitance, so less and less population units would be able to find the place of inhabitance suitable for living, or can't find enough space to live in.

Which one of the following is a correct representation of an alpha particle?

Alex Ar [27]

Answer:

₂He⁴

Explanation:

Alpha radiations are emitted as a result of radioactive decay. The atom emit the alpha particles consist of two proton and two neutrons. Which is also called helium nuclei. When atom undergoes the alpha emission the original atom convert into the atom having mass number less than 4 and atomic number less than 2 as compared to parent atom the starting atom.

Properties of alpha radiation:

Alpha radiations can travel in a short distance.

These radiations can not penetrate into the skin or clothes.

These radiations can be harmful for the human if these are inhaled.

These radiations can be stopped by a piece of paper.

₉₂U²³⁸ → ₉₀Th²³⁴ + ₂He⁴ + energy

How many dm³ of hydrogen,measured at s.t.p.,would be needed to reduce 47.7g of copper(II) oxide to copper?

GaryK [48]

Answer:

Option D. 13.44

Explanation:

We'll begin by calculating the number of mole in 47.7g of copper(II) oxide, CuO.

This can be obtained as follow:

Mass of CuO = 47.7 g

Molar mass of CuO = 63.5 + 16 = 79.5 g/mol

Mole of CuO =.?

Mole = mass /Molar mass

Mole of CuO = 47.7/79.5

Mole of CuO = 0.6 mole

Next, we shall write the balanced equation for the reaction. This is given below:

CuO + H2 —> Cu + H2O

From the balanced equation above,

1 mole of CuO reacted with 1 mole of H2 to produce 1 mole of Cu and 1 mole of H2O.

Next, we shall determine the number of mole of H2 needed to react completely with 0.6 mole of CuO.

This can be obtained as follow:

From the balanced equation above,

1 mole of CuO reacted with 1 mole of H2.

Therefore, 0.6 mole of CuO will also react with 0.6 mole of H2.

Finally, we shall determine the volume occupied by 0.6 mole of H2 at STP.

This can be obtained as follow:

1 mole of H2 occupied 22.4 dm³ at STP.

Therefore, 0.6 mole of H2 will occupy = 0.6 × 22.4 = 13.44 dm³.

Therefore, 13.44 dm³ of H2 is needed for the reaction.

Copper has two naturally occurring isotopes. Cu−63 has a mass of 62.939 amu and relative abundance of 69.17%.

fiasKO [112]

The answer is 64.907 amu.

The atomic mass of an element is the average of the atomic masses of its isotopes. The relative abundance of isotopes must be taken into consideration, therefore:
atomic mass of copper = atomic mass of isotope 1 * abundance 1 + atomic mass of isotope 2 * abundance 2

We know:
atomic mass of copper = 63.546 amu
The atomic mass of isotope 1 is: 62.939 amu
The abundance of isotope 1 is: 69.17% = 0.6917
The atomic mass of isotope 1 is: x
The abundance of isotope 2: 100% - 69.17% = 30.83% = 0.3083

Thus:
63.546 amu = 62.939 amu * 0.6917 + x * 0.3083
63.546 <span>amu = 43.535 amu + 0.3083x
</span>⇒ 63.546 amu - 43.535 amu = 0.3083x
⇒ 20.011 amu = 0.3083x
⇒ x = 20.011 amu ÷ 0.3083 = 64.907 amu
