Answer:

0.875 time.

Explanation:

The length of plastic water bottles are bought in the United States every day = (the no. of plastic water bottles are bought every day)(length of each bottle) = (140.0 million bottle)(0.25 m) = 35.0 million meter.

The length of the equator of the earth = 40.0 million meter.

∴ The times can the Earth's equator be circled by a line of plastic bottles used in the United States every day = (The length of plastic water bottles are bought in the United States every day)/(The length of the equator of the earth) = (35.0 million meter)/(40.0 million meter) = 0.875 times.

Fofino [41]

Answer:

a) 2ZnS(s)+3O_2(g)\rightarrow 2ZnO(s)+2SO_2(g)

2 moles of Zinc sulphide in solid form reacts with 3 moles of Oxygen in gaseous form to give 2 moles of Zinc oxide in solid form and 2 moles of sulphur dioxide in gaseous form.

b)  CaH_2(s)+2H_2O(l)\rightarrow Ca(OH)_2 aq)+2H_2(g)

1 mole of calcium hydride in solid form reacts with 2 moles of liquid water to give 1 mole of calcium hydroxide dissolved in water and 2 moles of hydrogen in gaseous form.

The chemical reactions are written by writing the chemical formula of the reactants on left side of the arrow followed by chemical formula of the products. The number of atoms of each element must be balanced to follow the law of conservation of mass.

Calculate the area of a 3.0 inch by 5.0 inch index card in square millimeters (mm). (You can look up the formula for the area of
meriva

Answer:

The area of the given rectangular index card = <u>9677.4 mm²</u>    

Explanation:

Area is defined as the space occupied by a two dimensional shape or object. The SI unit of area is square metre (m²).

<u>The area of a rectangle</u> (A) =  length (l) × width (w)

Given dimensions of the rectangle: Length (l) = 5.0 inch, Width (w) = 3.0 inch

Since, 1 inch = 25.4 millimetres (mm)

Therefore, l = 5 × 25.4 = 127 mm, and w = 3 × 25.4 = 76.2 mm

Therefore, <u>the area of the given rectangular index card</u> = A= l × w = 127 mm × 76.2 mm = <u>9677.4 mm²</u>

If you had 15 molecules of H2 and an unlimited supply of N2, how many
Masja [62]

Answer:

10 molecules of NH₃.

Explanation:

N₂ + 3H₂ --> 2NH₃

As the N₂ supply is unlimited, what we need to do to solve this problem is <u>convert molecules of H₂ into molecules of NH₃</u>. To do so we use the <em>stoichiometric coefficients</em> of the balanced reaction:

  • 15 molecules H₂ * \frac{2moleculesNH_3}{3moleculesH_2} = 10 molecules NH₃

10 NH₃ molecules could be prepared from 15 molecules of H₂ and unlimited N₂.
