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

After balancing the following reaction under acidic conditions, how many mole equivalents of water are required and on which sid
nordsb [41]

Answer:

d. 8 moles of H2O on the product side

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, we need to balance the given redox reaction in acidic media as shown below:

MnO_4^{1-} (aq) + Cl^{1-} (aq) \rightarrow  Mn^{2+} (aq) + Cl_2 (g)\\\\(Mn^{7+}O^{2-}_4)^{1-} (aq) + Cl^{1-} (aq) \rightarrow  Mn^{2+} (aq) + Cl_2 (g)\\\\\\\\(Mn^{7+}O^{2-}_4)^{1-} (aq)+8H^++5e^- \rightarrow Mn^{2+}+4H_2O\\\\2Cl^{1-}\rightarrow Cl_2^0+2e^-\\\\2*[(Mn^{7+}O^{2-}_4)^{1-} (aq)+8H^++5e^- \rightarrow Mn^{2+}+4H_2O]\\\\5*[2Cl^{1-}\rightarrow Cl_2^0+2e^-]\\\\\\\\2(Mn^{7+}O^{2-}_4)^{1-} (aq)+16H^++10e^- \rightarrow 2Mn^{2+}+8H_2O\\\\10Cl^{1-}\rightarrow 5Cl_2^0+10e^-\\

Then, we add the half reactions:

2(Mn^{7+}O^{2-}_4)^{1-} (aq)+16H^++10Cl^{1-} \rightarrow 2Mn^{2+}+8H_2O+5Cl_2^0

Thereby, we can see d. 8 moles of H2O on the product side.

Best regards.

Veseljchak [2.6K]
We can use the atomic model to demonstrate the ways in which scientists refine and build off each other's findings because of the fact that once this model was created, it brought with it other models and inventions, such as the periodic table and other theories about our known universe.

Which example describes how the water cycle carries on energy transfer? a flooding river depositing silt on a floodplain a warm
Irina18 [472]

Answer:

The water cycle is driven primarily by the energy from the sun. This solar energy drives the cycle by evaporating water from the oceans, lakes, rivers, and even the soil. Other water moves from plants to the atmosphere through the process of transpiration.

Determine the empirical formula of the following compound if a sample contains 0.104 molK, 0.052 molC, and 0.156 molO.
Nadya [2.5K]

The empirical formula is K₂CO₃.  

The empirical formula is the <em>simplest whole-number ratio of atoms</em> in a compound.  

The ratio of atoms is the same as the ratio of moles, so our job is to calculate the <em>molar ratio of K:C:O</em>.  

I like to summarize the calculations in a table.  

<u>Element</u> <u>Moles</u>  <u>Ratio</u>¹ <u>Integers</u>²  

     K       0.104   2.00         2

     C       0.052  1.00          1

     O      0.156   3.00         3

¹ To get the molar ratio, you divide each number of moles by the smallest number.  

² Round off the number in the ratio to integers to integers (2, 1, and 3).

The empirical formula is K₂CO₃.
