Utilizing dimensional analysis find the number of inches in a kilometer given that 1 inch equals 2.54 cm

1 answer:

4 0

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.

What is the relationship between the concentration of particles in a solution and the solution’s vapor pressure? As solute conce

kap26 [50]

Answer:

As solute concentration increases, vapor pressure decreases.

Step-by-step explanation:

As solute concentration increases, the number of solute particles at the surface of the solution increases, so the number of solvent particles at the surface decreases.

Since there are fewer solvent particles available to evaporate from the surface, the vapour pressure decreases.

C. and D. are wrong. The vapour pressure depends only on the number of particles. It does not depend on the nature of the particles.

How does the air on a hot day compare with the air on a cold day?

MrMuchimi

Air on a hot day translates to hot air and air on a cold day translates to cold air. The hot air usually have more energy due to particles being more excited by the heat.

Heterocyclic aromatic compounds undergo electrophilic aromatic substitution in a similar fashion to that undergone by benzene wi

Readme [11.4K]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

When we talk about electrophilic substitution, we are talking about a substitution reaction in which the attacking agent is an electrophile. The electrophile attacks an electron rich area of a compound during the reaction.

The five membered furan ring is aromatic just as benzene. This aromatic structure is maintained during electrophilic substitution reaction. The attack of the electrophile generates a resonance stabilized intermediate whose canonical structures have been shown in the image attached.
