the molar mass is how many grams it takes to make a full mole.  The number  in carbon 12 tells us that it takes 12 g to makes a mole, so one half of that would be <u><em>option d, 0.5</em></u>.

Answer:

d. 0.5

Explanation:

A mole is the amount of matter that is present in a certain substance and it is compared or measured against the amount of particles that can be found in 12 grams of Carbon 12, which is the most common isotope of Carbon that can be found in nature, so if a substance has half of the particles as 12 grams of Carbon 12, that means that it is only half a mole, so there are .5 moles of the substance.

A model used for the yield Y of an agricultural crop as a function of the nitrogen level N in the soil (measured in appropriate
lisov135 [29]

Answer:

  • It is 3.

Explanation:

The model written correctly is:

  • Y=\frac{kN}{9+N^2}

This is a mathematical question, instead of a chemistry question, and you should use calculus to find the nitrogen level that gives the best yield, since this is an optimization problem.

The best yield is the maximum yield, and the maximum, provided that it exists, is found using the first derivative and making it equal to zero: Y' = 0

To find Y' you must use the quotient rule.

Y'=\frac{(kN)'(9+N^2)- (kN)(9+N^2)'}{(9+N^2)^2}\\ \\Y'=\frac{k(9+N^2)-kN(2N)}{(9+N^2)^2}\\ \\Y'=\frac{9k + kN^2 - 2kN^2}{(9 + N^2)^2}=\frac{9k-kN^2}{(9+N^2)^2}

Now make Y' = 0

  • The denominator is never equal to zero, because it is always positive and greater than 9.

  • Make the numerator equal to zero:

         9k - kN² = 0

  • Factor: k (9 - N²) = 0

  • Since k is a positve constant, it is not equal to zero, and the other factor, 9 - N², must be equal to zero:

         9 - N² = 0 ⇒ (3 - N) (3 + N) = 0

         ⇒ 3 - N = 0 or 3 + N = 0 ⇒ N = 3 or N = -3.

Since N is nitrogen level, it cannot be negative and the only valid answer is N = 3.

You can prove that it is a maximum (instead of a minimum) finding the second derivative or testing some points around 3 (e.g. 2.5 and 3.5).

What does chemistry have to do with drug testing
diamong [38]

Answer:

Forensic drug chemists analyze samples of unknown materials including powders, liquids and stains to determine the chemical identity or characteristics of the compounds that make up the sample. samples submitted as evidence in a drug-related case can contain one compound or a mixture of many compounds.

Rate = K[A]
Aleks [24]

Answer:

9 × 10⁻³ mol·L⁻¹s⁻¹  

Explanation:

Data:

  k = 1 × 10⁻³ L·mol⁻¹s⁻¹

[A] = 3 mol·L⁻¹

Calculation:

rate = k[A]² = 1 × 10⁻³ L·mol⁻¹s⁻¹ × (3 mol·L⁻¹)² = 9 × 10⁻³ mol·L⁻¹s⁻¹
