The variable we have to determine for this problem is the time. Since the given information is speed, we have to know the distance so that we can solve for the time. From literature, the distance between the Earth and the moon is 384,400,000 meters. Therefore,

Speed = Distance/Time
Time = Distance/Speed
Time = 384,400,000 m/ 3×10⁸ m/s = 1.28 seconds

Determine the molar mass of CuSO4 (the solute) in a 1.0M aqueous solution of CuSO4
inna [77]

Answer:

See explanation.

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, we could have two possible solutions:

A) If you are asking for the molar mass, you should use the atomic mass of each element forming the compound, that is copper, sulfur and four times oxygen, so you can compute it as shown below:

M_{CuSO_4}=m_{Cu}+m_{S}+4*m_{O}=63.546 g/mol+32.00g/mol+4*16.00g/mol\\\\M_{CuSO_4}=159.546g/mol

That is the mass of copper (II) sulfate contained in 1 mol of substance.

B) On the other hand, if you need to compute the moles, forming a 1.0-M solution of copper (II) sulfate, you need the volume of the solution in litres as an additional data considering the formula of molarity:

M=\frac{n_{solute}}{V_{solution}}

So you can solve for the moles of the solute:

n_{solute}=M*V_{solution}

Nonetheless, we do not know the volume of the solution, so the moles of copper (II) sulfate could not be determined. Anyway, for an assumed volume of 1.5 L of solution, we could obtain:

n_{solute}=1mol/L*1.5L=1.5mol

But this is just a supposition.

Regards.

Why burning of fuel is a chemical change give 5 reasons to support your answer
frozen [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

1. New substances such as carbondioxide and water is formed.

2. There is evolution of gas bubbles. Gases are released.

3. There is either the absorption of energy or release of energy in form of light and energy.

4. The reaction is irreversible i.e it cannot be reversed, it is permanent once the reaction take place.

5. There is a change in both odor and smell.

A chemical change is a change where new substances are formed due to changes in the properties.

Hello.

The answer is: False

The current theory of the formation of our solar system is that the planets formed more or less in their present orbits and they were made balls of gas but they were never comets captured by the sun.

Have a nice day

Write the overall, balanced molecular equation and indicate which element is oxidized and which is reduced for the following rea
REY [17]

Explanation:

Mg(s) + Cr(C2H3O2)3 (aq)

Overall, balanced molecular equation

Mg(s) + Cr(C2H3O2)3(aq) --> Mg(C2H3O2)3(aq) + Cr(s)

To identify if an element has been reduced or oxidized, the oxidation number is observed in both the reactant and product phase.

An increase in oxidation number denotes that the element has been oxidized.

A decrease in oxidation number denotes that the element has been reduced.

Oxidation number of Mg:

Reactant - 0

Product - +3

Oxidation number of Cr:

Reactant - +3

Product - 0

Note: C2H3O2 is actually acetate ion; CH3COO- The oxidatioon number of C, H and O do not change.

Oxidized : Mg

Reduced : Cr
