Part of Dr. Ritchey’s work in her previous job involved boiling and condensing hydrocarbon mixtures. In one of her experiments,

she used a binary mixture of n-pentane (density 39.1 lbm/ft^3) and p-xylene (density 53.8 lbm/ft^3). One outlet stream of her condenser was measured to have a flow rate of 56 ft^3/min and a concentration of 30/70 n-pentane/p-xylene by volume. The other outlet stream was measured to have a flow rate of 16 ft^3/min and a concentration of 50/50 n-pentane/p-xylene by volume. If the system operates at steady state and the only inlet to her condenser has a flow rate of 72 ft^3/min, what is the inlet concentration of n-pentane in % by volume? Your answer should be between 0 and 100. Round your answer to 1 decimal place for entry into eCampus. Do not enter units. Example: 12.3

What are 7 facts about Conduction?
Daniel [21]
Conduction, transfer of heat or electricity through a substance, resulting from a difference in temperature between different parts of the substance, in the case of heat, or from a difference in electric potential, in the case of electricity. Since heat is energy associated with the motions of the particles making up the substance, it is transferred by such motions, shifting from regions of higher temperature, where the particles are more energetic, to regions of lower temperature. The rate of heat flow between two regions is proportional to the temperature difference between them and the heat conductivity of the substance. In solids, the molecules themselves are bound and contribute to conduction of heat mainly by vibrating against neighboring molecules; a more important mechanism, however, is the migration of energetic free electrons through the solid. Metals, which have a high free-electron density, are good conductors of heat, while nonmetals, such as wood or glass, have few free electrons and do not conduct as well. Especially poor conductors, such as asbestos, have been used as insulators to impede heat flow (see insulation). Liquids and gases have their molecules farther apart and are generally poor conductors of heat. Conduction of electricity consists of the flow of charges as a result of an electromotive force, or potential difference. The rate of flow, i.e., the electric current, is proportional to the potential difference and to the electrical conductivity of the substance, which in turn depends on the nature of the substance, its cross-sectional area, and its temperature. In solids, electric current consists of a flow of electrons; as in the case of heat conduction, metals are better conductors of electricity because of their greater free-electron density, while nonmetals, such as rubber, are poor conductors and may be used as electrical insulators, or dielectrics. Increasing the cross-sectional area of a given conductor will increase the current because more electrons will be available for conduction. Increasing the temperature will inhibit conduction in a metal because the increased thermal motions of the electrons will tend to interfere with their regular flow in an electric current; in a nonmetal, however, an increase in temperature improves conduction because it frees more electrons.

Which statement describes the charge of an
qwelly [4]
I think that you didn't copy the answers correctly, because 1 and 2 are the same, and 3 and 4 are also the same here.
Anyways, the answer which is correct is that an electron has a charge of -1, and a proton has a charge of +1.
Electrons are negatively charged, whereas protons are positively charged. Neutrons are neutral.

Consider the SCl2 molecule. (a) What is the electron config- uration of an isolated S atom? (b) What is the electron con- figura
iragen [17]

Answer:

(a) 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁴

(b) 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁵

(c) sp³

(d) No valence orbital remains unhybridized.

Explanation:

<em>Consider the SCl₂ molecule. </em>

<em>(a) What is the electron configuration of an isolated S atom? </em>

S has 16 electrons. Its electron configuration is 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁴.

<em>(b) What is the electron configuration of an isolated Cl atom? </em>

Cl has 17 electrons. Its electron configuration is 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁵.

<em>(c) What hybrid orbitals should be constructed on the S atom to make the S-Cl bonds in SCl₂? </em>

SCl₂ has a tetrahedral electronic geometry. Therefore, the orbital 3s hybridizes with the 3 orbitals 3 p to form 4 hybrid orbital sp³.

<em>(d) What valence orbitals, if any, remain unhybridized on the S atom in SCl₂?</em>

No valence orbital remains unhybridized.

Is usually categorized to a specific area in the state known as a soil series
Vikentia [17]

Answer:

Soil series as established by the National Cooperative Soil Survey of the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) Natural Resources Conservation Service are a level of classification in the USDA Soil Taxonomy classification system hierarchy. The actual object of classification is the so-called soil individual, or pedon.[1] Soil series consist of pedons that are grouped together because of their similar pedogenesis, soil chemistry, and physical properties. More specifically, each series consists of pedons having soil horizons that are similar in soil color, soil texture, soil structure, soil pH, consistence, mineral and chemical composition, and arrangement in the soil profile.[2] These result in soils which perform similarly for land use purposes.
