Answer:
The furnace releases 1757280 J 

Explanation:
We will do the conversion on two steps:
1- convert the kcal to cal
2- convert the cal to J

Step 1: converting kcal to cal
1 kcal is equivalent to 1000 cal. Therefore:
420 kcal is equivalent to 420*1000 = 420000 cal

Step 2: converting cal to J
We are given that:
<span>1 cal = 4.184 J
</span>Therefore:
420000 cal is equivalent to 420000 * 4.184 = 1757280 J 

Hope this helps :)

The number main-group elements'valance electrons can be determined by____ on the periodic table​
Zanzabum
<h2>Answer:</h2>

Valance electrons can be determined by <u>Group</u> on the periodic table​

<h2>Explanation:</h2>
  • Valence electrons are the electrons present in the outermost shell of an atom. We can determine the total number of valence electrons present in an atom by checking at its Group in which it is placed in the periodic table. For example, atoms in Groups 1 the number of valence electron is one and for group 2 the number of valence electrons is 2.
  • The groups have number of valance electrons as follow:

Group 1 - 1 valence electron.

Group 2 - 2 valance electrons.

Group 13 - 3 valence electrons.

Group 14 - 4 valance electrons.

Group 15 - 5 valence electrons.

Group 16 - 6 valence electrons.

Group 17 - 7 valence electrons.

Group 18 - 8 valence electrons.

Result: No of valence electron can be determined by the group no. of the element.

If the molar absorptivity constant for the red dye solution is 5.56×104 M-1cm-1, calculate the molarity of the red dye solution
Shtirlitz [24]

Explanation:

a) Using Beer-Lambert's law :

Formula used :

A=\epsilon \times c\times l

where,

A = absorbance of solution = 0.945

c = concentration of solution = ?

l = length of the cell = 1.20 cm

\epsilon = molar absorptivity of this solution =5.56\times 10^4 M^{-1} cm^{-1}

0.945=5.56\times 10^4 M^{-1} cm^{-1}\times 1.20 \times c

c=1.4163\times 10^{-5} M=14.16 \mu M

(1\mu M=10^{-6} M)

14.16 μM is the molarity of the red dye solution at the optimal wavelength 519nm and absorbance value 0.945.

b) c=1.4163\times 10^{-5} mol/L

1 L of solution contains 1.4163\times 10^{-5} moles of red dye.

Mass of 1.4163\times 10^{-5} moles of red dye:

1.4163\times 10^{-5}\times 879.86g/mol=0.01246 g

(w/v)\%=\frac{\text{Mass of solute (g)}}{\text{Volume of solvent (mL)}}\times 100

red(w/v)\%=\frac{0.01246 g}{1000 mL}\times 100=0.001246\%

c) In order to dilute red dye solution by 5 times, we will need to add 1 L of water to solution of given concentration.

Concentration of red dye solution = c=1.4163\times 10^{-5} M

Concentration of red solution after dilution = c'

c=c'\times 5

1.4163\times 10^{-5} M=c'\times 5

c'=2.83\times 10^{-6} M

The final concentration of the diluted solution is 2.83\times 10^{-6} M

Calculate the pH of a 3.58x10^-9 M Nitric acid (a strong acid) solution
lubasha [3.4K]

Answer:

pH= 8.45

Explanation:

when working with strong accids pH = -log(Concentration)

so -log(3.58e-9) = 8.446
