<h3>Answer:</h3>

0.012 dekameters (dkm)

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

<u>We are given;</u>

  • 120 centimeters( cm).

Required to identify the measurements that is not equivalent to 120 cm.

  • Centimeters are units that are used to measure length together with other units such as kilometers(km), meters (m), millimeters (mm), dekameters (dkm), etc.
  • These units can be inter-converted to one another using suitable conversion factors.
  • To do this, we are going to have a table showing the suitable conversion factor from one unit to another.

Kilometer (km)

10

Decimeter (Dm)

10

Hectometer (Hm)\

10

Meter (m)

10

Dekameter (dkm)

10

Centimeter (cm)

10

Millimeter (mm)

Therefore;

To convert cm to km

Conversion factor is 10^5 cm/km

Thus;

120 cm = 120 cm ÷ 10^5 cm/km

            = 0.0012 km

To convert cm to dkm

Conversion factor is 10 cm/dkm

Therefore,

120 cm = 120 cm ÷ 10 cm/dkm

            = 12 dkm

To convert cm to m

The suitable conversion factor is 10^2 cm/m

Thus,

120 cm = 120 cm ÷ 10^2 cm/m

           = 1.2 m

To convert cm to mm

Suitable conversion factor is 10 mm/cm

Therefore;

120 cm = 120 cm × 10 mm/cm

            = 1200 mm

Therefore, the measurement that is not equal to 120 cm is 0.012 dkm

What molarity is prepared when a solution contains 0.277 moles of calcium bromide in 500 mL of solution (must change mL to Liter
Vladimir79 [104]

Answer:

0.554M of Calcium Bromide

Explanation:

Molarity by defintion is #of moles of something/litres of solution.

Therefore, here, we have 0.277 moles of calcium bromide and 500mL (divide 500ml by 1000 to go from mL to L because for every 1L there's 1000mL) or 0.5L.

Molarity= 0.277/0.5 = 0.554M of Calcium Bromide

If your end product is 1.5 moles of KMnO 4 how many moles of manganese oxide were used in the reaction? The equation for the pro
vovikov84 [41]

Answer:

1.5 moles

Explanation:

The equation of the reaction is given as:

2 MnO2 + 4 KOH + O2 --> 2KMnO 4 + 2KOH + H2

From the equation,

2 moles of MnO2 produces 2 moles of KMnO4

x moles of MnO2 would produce 1.5 moles of KMnO4

2 = 2

x = 1.5

Solving for x;

x = 1.5 * 2 / 2

x = 1.5 moles

Which atomic models does Rutherford’s experimental evidence support? Explain why these models (Dalton, Bohr, Thomson models) are
ipn [44]

Answer:

Rutherford was the first scientist who proposed the nuclear model of the atom. According to his atomic model, most of the space of an atom is empty, while the nucleus containing protons and neutrons lie at the center of the atom while electrons revolve around nucleus in definite orbits.

If we talk about studies of some other scientists like Dalton, Neil Bohr and JJ Thomson, they all are compatible with Rutherford's results to a large extent.

For example: Dalton's atomic model assumed that atoms of any substance are similar in size and atoms react to form compounds. Rutherford's concept indicated that atoms contain electrons and they are in a specific number which can be shared to form compounds.

If we talk about Bohr's model, it states that electrons revolve around nucleus in specific shells, this again is compatible with Rutherford's results which gave the concept of shells.

If we talk about Thomson's Plum pudding model, that describe atom as negative particles floating within a soup of diffuse positive charge. This is also compatible with the results of Rutherford that state that negative electrons surround positive nucleus.

Rutherford's model was best atomic model but still it took help from many previous studies and therefore was compatible with the results of old models.


Hope it help!
