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.

If you wanna get oil to 180 celcius when it starts at 20 how many units of thermal energy is needed?
Zarrin [17]

Answer:

The thermal energy (heat) needed, to raise the temperature of oil of mass  'm' kilogram and specific heat capacity 'c' from 20°C to 180°C  is  160·m·c joules

Explanation:

The heat capacity, 'C', of a substance is the heat change, ΔQ, required by a given mass, 'm', of the substance to produce a unit temperature change, ΔT

∴ C = ΔQ/ΔT

ΔQ = C × ΔT

C = m × c

Where;

c = The specific heat capacity

ΔT = The temperature change = T₂ - T₁

∴ ΔQ = m × c × ΔT

Therefore, the thermal energy (heat) needed, ΔQ, to raise the temperature of oil of mass 'm' kilogram and specific heat capacity, 'c' from 20°C to 180°C  is given as follows;

ΔQ = m × c × (180° - 20°) = 160° × m·c

ΔQ = 160·m·c joules

The voltage for the following cell is +0.731 V. Find Kb for the organic base RNH2. Use EscE 0.241V.
tino4ka555 [31]

Complete Question

The complete question is shown on the first uploaded image  

Answer:

The  value is   K_b  =   1.89 *10^{-6}

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The  voltage of the cell is  V  =  0.731 \  V

Generally K_b is mathematically represented as  

           K_b  =  \frac{K_w }{ K_a }

Where  K_w  is the equilibrium constant for this auto-ionization of water with a value  K_w  =  1.0 *10^{-14}

Generally the E_{cell} is mathematically represented as

       E_{cell} =  V  -  E_{SCE}

=>     E_{cell} =  0.731 - 0.241

=>       E_{cell} =   0.49 V

This  E_{cell} is mathematically represented as

             E_{cell} =  \frac{0.0592}{n} *  log K_a

Where n is the number of moles which in this question is  n = 1

         So  

         0.490 =  \frac{0.0592}{1}  *  log K_a

=>      K_a  =  5.30*10^{-9}

So  

     K_b  =  \frac{ K_w}{ K_a}

=>   K_b  =  \frac{1.0 *10^{-14}}{ 5.30*10^{-9}}

=>    K_b  =   1.89 *10^{-6}

What sort of chemical hazard is thalidomide?
trapecia [35]
The hazard from thalidomide is that it can cause children to die or to be born with deformed limbs, often without limbs. That's why its use has been greatly reduced and is now only usable in treating certain types of cancers or leprosy.

Which of the following set ups which converts centimeters to fit
Eva8 [605]

Answer:

The fourth one down

Explanation:

It is the only setup in which the units of "cm" and "in" cancel correctly and give the desired units of "ft."

The second one down has the correct units but the wrong conversion factor for converting centimetres to inches.
