Answer:

The correct answer is the imperial system.

Explanation:

Only three countries in the world, that is, the United States, Myanmar, and Liberia use the imperial system. These include measurements in the form of inches, ounces, Fahrenheit, and feet. In the imperial system, the distances, height, weight, or area measurements are used eventually that traced back to everyday items or parts of the body.

In comparison to other metric systems, the units used in the imperial system are not further differentiated easily into parts of hundreds or thousands, and are thus, regarded of less use in comparison to other metric systems by some. The real follower of the imperial system at present in the world is the United States.

Question 3

harina [27]

Answer: 0.118M

Explanation:

The formula for molarity is: $M=\frac{mol solute}{L solution}$

First, we need to find the number of moles of NaCl.

$2.70gNaCl*\frac{1molNaCl}{58.44gNaCl} =0.05molNaCl$

Next, we must convert millimeters to liters. We can do that by dividing the number of mL by 1000.

$\frac{425mL}{1000} =0.425L$

Now we have our needed data! All we need to do now is plug in our data to the molarity formula.

$M=\frac{0.05mol}{0.425L} =0.118M$

I hope this helps! Pls mark brainliest!! :)

Natural gas is stored in a spherical tank at a temperature of 13°C. At a given initial time, the pressure in the tank is 117 kPa

drek231 [11]

Answer:

1. the absolute pressure in the tank before filling = 217 kPa

2. the absolute pressure in the tank after filling = 312 kPa

3. the ratio of the mass after filling M2 to that before filling M1 = 1.44

The correct relation is option c ( $\frac{M_{2} }{M_{1} } = \frac{P_{2} T_{1} }{P_{1} T_{2} }$ )

Explanation:

To find -

1. What is the absolute pressure in the tank before filling?

2. What is the absolute pressure in the tank after filling?

3. What is the ratio of the mass after filling M2 to that before filling M1 for this situation?

As we know that ,

Absolute pressure = Atmospheric pressure + Gage pressure

So,

Before filling the tank :

Given - Atmospheric pressure = 100 kPa , Gage pressure = 117 kPa

⇒Absolute pressure ( p1 ) = 100 + 117 = 217 kPa

Now,

After filling the tank :

Given - Atmospheric pressure = 100 kPa , Gage pressure = 212 kPa

⇒Absolute pressure (p2) = 100 + 212= 312 kPa

Now,

As given, volume is the same before and after filling,

i.e. $V_{1}$ = $V_{2}$

As we know that, P ∝ M

⇒ $\frac{p_{1} }{p_{2} } = \frac{m_{1} }{m_{2} }$

⇒ $\frac{m_{2} }{m_{1} } = \frac{p_{2} }{p_{1} }$

⇒ $\frac{m_{2} }{m_{1} } = \frac{312 }{217 } = 1.4378$ ≈ 1.44

Now, as we know that PV = nRT

As V is constant

⇒ P ∝ MT

⇒ $\frac{P}{T}$ ∝ M

⇒ $\frac{M_{2} }{M_{1} } = \frac{P_{2} T_{1} }{P_{1} T_{2} }$

So, The correct relation is c option.

Determain the number of moles in 2.24l of ch4 at stp

valkas [14]

Answer:

0.1 mole of CH₄

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Volume of CH₄ = 2.24 L

Number of mole of CH₄ =?

The number of mole of CH₄ can be obtained as follow:

Recall:

1 mole of a gas occupy 22.4 L at stp. This implies that 1 mole of CH₄ occupies 22.4 L at stp.

22.4 L = 1 mole of CH₄

Therefore,

2.24 L = 2.24 × 1 mole of CH₄ / 22.4

2.24 L = 0.1 mole of CH₄.

If Salt is NaCl, what atoms does the compound contain?

allochka39001 [22]

Na is the elemental abbreviation for sodium, and Cl is the abbreviation for chlorine.
When the two are combined, you get sodium-chloride, or table salt.
Hope that helped =)

Chocolate Chip Cookie Recipe: 1 cup of flour 100 chocolate chips 1 cup sugar 1/2 cup milk Yields 10 cookies You and your sister

igor_vitrenko [27]

The limiting reactant is the chocolate chips (they would run out first) because you can only make 3 batches with 300 chips.
