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.

How do particles in a solid move?
satela [25.4K]

Answer:

The particles in a solid vibrate in place.

Explanation:

The particles in a solid are close and tightly packed together so they have no room to flow past each other like the particles in a liquid can.

Classify each of these soluble solutes as a strong electrolyte, a weak electrolyte, or a nonelectrolyte. Solutes formula hydroch
matrenka [14]

Compounds which on dissolving in water gets completely dissociates into its ions are known as strong electrolytes whereas compounds which on dissolving in water gets partially dissociates into its ions are known as weak electrolytes.


Substances which gives solution on dissolving in water and do not dissociates into ions also does not conduct electric current are known as nonelectrolyte.

  • Hydrochloric acid, HCl

On adding HCl (strong acid) in water, it will completely dissociates into ions (H^{+} and Cl^{-}) and thus, it is a strong electrolyte.

  • Sodium hydroxide, NaOH

On adding NaOH (strong base) in water, it will completely dissociates into ions (Na^{+} and  OH^{-}) and thus, it is a strong electrolyte.

  • Formic acid, HCOOH

On adding HCOOH (weak acid) in water, it will partially dissociates into ions (H^{+} and  HCOO^{-}) and thus, it is a weak electrolyte.

  • Methyl amine, CH_3NH_2

On adding CH_3NH_2 (weak base) in water, it will partially dissociates into ions (CH_3NH_3^{+} and  OH^{-}) and thus, it is a weak electrolyte.

  • Potassium chloride, KCl

On adding KCl in water, it will completely dissociates into ions (K^{+} and  Cl^{-}) and thus, it is a strong electrolyte.

  • Ethanol, C_2H_5OH

On adding C_2H_5OH in water, it will not dissociates into ions  and thus, it is a nonelectrolyte.

  • Sucrose, C_{12}H_{22}O_{11}

On adding C_{12}H_{22}O_{11} in water, it will not dissociates into ions  and thus, it is a nonelectrolyte.

When comparing the two chair conformations for a monosubstituted cyclohexane ring, which type of substituent shows the greatest
Aleksandr [31]

Answer:

See the explanation

Explanation:

In this case, we have to keep in mind that in the monosubstituted product we only have to replace 1 hydrogen with another group. In this case, we are going to use the methyl group CH_3.

In the axial position, we have a more steric hindrance because we have two hydrogens near to the CH_3 group. If we have <u>more steric hindrance</u> the molecule would be <u>more unstable</u>. In the equatorial positions, we don't <u>any interactions</u> because the CH_3 group is pointing out. If we don't have <u>any steric hindrance</u> the molecule will be <u>more stable</u>, that's why the molecule will <u>the equatorial position.</u>

See figure 1

I hope it helps!
