Answer:

When light travels from air into water, it slows down, causing it to change direction slightly. This change of direction is called refraction. When light enters a more dense substance (higher refractive index), it 'bends' more towards the normal line.

Assuming a car (with a 70-L) gas tank can hold approximately 50,000 (5.00 * 10^4) g of octane(C8H18) or 50,000 (5.00 * 10^4) g o
konstantin123 [22]

Answer:

- From octane: m_{CO_2}=1.54x10^5gCO_2

- From ethanol: m_{CO_2}=9.57x10^4gCO_2

Explanation:

Hello,

At first, for the combustion of octane, the following chemical reaction is carried out:

C_8H_{18}+\frac{25}{2} O_2\rightarrow 8CO_2+9H_2O

Thus, the produced mass of carbon dioxide is:

m_{CO_2}=5.00x10^4gC_8H_{18}*\frac{1molC_8H_{18}}{114gC_8H_{18}}*\frac{8molCO_2}{1molC_8H_{18}}*\frac{44gCO_2}{1molCO_2} \\\\m_{CO_2}=1.54x10^5gCO_2

Now, for ethanol:

C_2H_6O+3O_2\rightarrow 2CO_2+3H_2O

m_{CO_2}=5.00x10^4gC_2H_6O*\frac{1molC_2H_6O}{46gC_2H_6O}*\frac{2molCO_2}{1molC_2H_6O}*\frac{44gCO_2}{1molCO_2} \\\\m_{CO_2}=9.57x10^4gCO_2

Best regards.

Answer:

density=mass/volume.

density=14/18

=0.777777777 ~ 0.8g/ml.

It will float because the it lesser than the density of water.

Answer:

1) They are the same line so they match equally bc they are measuring the same thing just one is more specific than the other

2) Sonar measures all depths at every possible point and maps it including all the gaps in between the 5cm apart the ocean floor is. The difference between the points could be a cliff or a smooth decline.

eimsori [14]

Answer:

Vaporization and Condensation When a liquid vaporizes in a closed container, gas molecules cannot escape. As these gas phase molecules move randomly about, they will occasionally collide with the surface of the condensed phase, and in some cases, these collisions will result in the molecules re-entering the condensed phase.
