Iron has a density of 7.86 g/cm3. calculate the volume (in dl) of a piece of iron having a mass of 3.72 kg

Density is the mass divided by the volume of the object

\rho = \frac{m}{V}

you know denisty and you know mass so you can determine volume if you rearrange the formula

V= \frac{m}{\rho}

however, when you're doing the division, make sure the units match, since density is given in grams and mass  is given in kilograms

once you have volume in cm3, convert that into "dl"

A 0.08541 g sample of gas occupies 10.0-ml at 288.5 k and 1.10 atm. upon further analysis, the compound is found to be 13.068% c

<span>C2Br2 First, we need to determine how many moles of the gas we have. For that, we'll use the Ideal Gas Law which is PV = nRT where P = pressure (1.10 atm = 111458 Pa) V = volume (10.0 ml = 0.0000100 m^3) n = number of moles R = Ideal gas constant (8.3144598 (m^3 Pa)/(K mol) ) T = Absolute temperature Solving for n, we get PV/(RT) = n Now substituting our known values into the formula. (111458 Pa * 0.0000100 m^3) / (288.5 K * 8.3144598 (m^3 Pa)/(K mol)) = (1.11458/2398.721652) mol = 0.000464656 mol Now let's calculate the empirical formula for this compound. Atomic weight carbon = 12.0107 Atomic weight bromine = 79.904 Relative moles carbon = 13.068 / 12.0107 = 1.08802984 Relative moles bromine = 86.932 / 79.904 = 1.087955547 So the relative number of atoms of the two elements is 1.08802984 : 1.087955547 After dividing all numbers by the smallest, the ratio becomes 1.000068287 : 1 Which is close enough to 1:1 for me to consider the empirical formula to be CBr Now calculate the molar mass of CBr 12.0107 + 79.904 = 91.9147 Finally, let's determine if the compound is actually CBr, or something like C2Br2, or some other multiple. Using the molar mass of CBr, multiply by the number of moles and see if the result matches the mass of the gas. So 91.9147 g/mol * 0.000464656 mol = 0.042708701 g 0.0427087 g is a lot smaller than 0.08541 g. So the compound isn't exactly CBr. Let's divide them to see what the factor is. 0.08541 / 0.0427087 = 1.99982673 1.99982673 is close enough to 2 to within the number of significant digits we have for me to claim that the formula for the unknown gas isn't CBr, but instead is C2Br2.</span>

What is the frequency of green light that has a wavelength of 5.14 x 10^-7m?
nata0808 [166]

Answer:

Frecuency = 5,83x10⁻⁷ Hz

Explanation:

The equation that connects wavelenght and frequency is given by:

λ = c/ν

λ=wavelenght (expressed in lenght´s units)

c= speed of light (3x10⁸ m/sec)

ν=frequency (expressed in units of time⁻¹ or Herzt)

In our case, λ=5,14x10⁻⁷ m , so replacing in our previous formula, this gives us the final result of ν (frequency for green light) of 5,83x10¹⁴ Hz (or Herzt)
