4. An 82 kg hiker climbs Mt. Humphrey near Flagstaff. During a two hour period, the hiker's
bazaltina [42]

Answer:

\Delta E = 434253.96\,J, \Delta P = 60.313\,W

Explanation:

The change in energy is given by the change in gravitational potential energy:

\Delta E = m\cdot g \cdot \Delta h

\Delta E = (82\,kg)\cdot (9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} )\cdot (540\,m)

\Delta E = 434253.96\,J

The average rate of change in terms of time is approximately this:

\Delta P = \frac{\Delta E}{\Delta t}

\Delta P = \frac{434253.96\,J}{(2\,h)\cdot (\frac{3600\,s}{1\,h} )}

\Delta P = 60.313\,W

Balance the following reaction. A coefficient of "1" is understood. Choose option "blank" for the correct answer if the coeffici
arlik [135]

The given reaction is:

C4H10 + O2 → CO2 + H2O

The above equation is not balanced due to the unequal distribution of atoms on either side of equation

# atoms Reactants           # atoms products

C = 4                                    C = 1

H = 10                                  H = 2

O = 2                                   O = 3

In order to balance it, multiply C4H10 by 2, O2 by 13, CO2 by 8 and H2O by 10 to get:

2C4H10 + 13 O2 → 8CO2 + 10H2O

What is the percentage of lithium in lithium carbonate (Li2CO3)?
ale4655 [162]
Molar mass Li2CO3 = 73.89 g/mol
Molar mass Li = 6.94g/mol Li = 6.94*2 = 13.88g


% LI = 13.88/73.89*100 = 18.78% perfectly correct.
