To solve this problem, separate it into chunks that you know. You know that there are 2.54 centimeters in 1 inch. You know that there are 100 centimeters in 1 meter. You know that there are 1000 meters in a kilometer. Therefore, we'll convert in this order: 1) from kilometers to meters, 2) from meters to centimeters, and 3) from centimeters to inches.
1) 1km × 1000m/1km
= 1000m
2) 1000m × 100cm/1m
= 100000cm
3) 100000cm × 1in/2.54cm
≈ 39370in
So, there are approximately 39370 inches in a kilometer.

The density of H2O2 is 1.407 g/mL, and the density of O2 is 1.428 g/L. How many liters of O2 can be made from 55 mL H2O2
balandron [24]

Explanation:

mass H2O2 = 55 mL(1.407 g/mL) = 80.85 g

molar mass H2O2 = 2(1.01 g/mol) + 2(16.00 g/mol) = 34.02 g/mol

moles H2O2 = 80.85 g/34.02 g/mol = 2.377 moles H2O2

For each mole of H2O2 you obtain 0.5 mole of O2 (see the equation).

moles O2 = 2.377 moles H2O2 (1 mole O2)/(2 moles H2O2) = 1.188 moles O2

Now, you need the temperature.  If you are at STP (273 K, and 1.00 atm) then 1 mole of an ideal gas at STP has a volume of 22.4 L.  Without temperature you are not really able to continue.  I will assume you are at STP.

Volume O2 = 1.188 moles O2(22.4 L/mole) = 0.0530 L of O2.

which is  53 mL.

Which equation best represents the dissociation of water molecules into hydrogen ions and hydroxide ions?
Nikitich [7]

Answer is: H₂O → H⁺ + OH⁻.

Water dissociates (autoionization) to form hydrogen ions (H⁺) and hydroxide (OH⁻) ions. The protons (H⁺) hydrate as hydroxonium ions( H₃O⁺).

The Kw (the ionic product for water) at 25°C is 1·10⁻¹⁴ mol²/dm⁶ or 1·10⁻¹⁴ M². Concentration of hydrogen ions and hydroxide ions in pure water are the same.
