<u>Answer:</u> The amount of kilocalories contained in the given serving of soup is 0.137 kCal

<u>Explanation:</u>

<u>As per the USDA:</u>

Carbohydrates provide 4 calories per gram, protein provides 4 calories per gram, and fat provides 9 calories per gram.

We are given

Mass of fat in the soup serving = 5.0 g

Mass of carbohydrates in the soup serving = 20.0 g

Mass of protein in the soup serving = 3.0 g

Conversion factor used:  1 kCal = 1000 Cal

Applying unitary method:

  • <u>For Fat:</u>

1 gram of fat provides 9 calories

So, 5.0 gram of fat will provide = \frac{9}{1}\times 5.0=45Cal=0.045kCal

  • <u>For Carbohydrates:</u>

1 gram of carbohydrates provides 4 calories

So, 20.0 gram of carbohydrates will provide =\frac{4}{1}\times 20.0=80Cal=0.080kCal

  • <u>For Proteins:</u>

1 gram of proteins provides 4 calories

So, 3.0 gram of fat will provide = \frac{4}{1}\times 3=12Cal=0.012kCal

Total kilocalories per serving = [0.045 + 0.080 + 0.012] kCal = 0.137 kCal

Hence, the amount of kilocalories contained in the given serving of soup is 0.137 kCal

What is the mass of 1.2 x 1023 atoms of arsenic?
Gre4nikov [31]

Answer:

14.93 g

Explanation:

First we <u>convert 1.2 x 10²³ atoms of arsenic (As) into moles</u>, using <em>Avogadro's number</em>:

  • 1.2 x 10²³ atoms ÷ 6.023x10²³ atoms/mol = 0.199 mol As

Then we can<u> calculate the mass of 0.199 moles of arsenic</u>, using its<em> molar mass</em>:

  • 0.199 mol * 74.92 g/mol = 14.93 g

Thus, 1.2x10²³ atoms of arsenic weigh 14.93 grams.

Our Sun will eventually turn into a red giant and, finally, a white dwarf. Use the Hertzsprung-Russell diagram to describe how t
ollegr [7]

Answer:

Most stars are rather simple things. They come in a variety of sizes and temperatures, but the great majority can be characterized by just two parameters: their mass and their age. (Chemical composition also has some effect, but not enough to change the overall picture of what we will be discussing here. All stars are about three-quarters hydrogen and one-quarter helium when they are born.)

If you have 150 grams of s8, how many moles of so2 can you make?
ruslelena [56]

Answer : You can make 4.68 moles of SO₂

Explanation:

Step 1 : Write balanced equation.

S₈ can combine with oxygen to form SO₂ gas. The balanced equation for this reaction is written below.

S_{8}  + 8 O_{2} \rightarrow 8 SO_{2}

Step 2 : Find moles of S₈

The formula to calculate mol is

mole = \frac{grams}{MolarMass}

Molar mass of S₈ is 256.5 g/mol

mole = \frac{150grams}{256.5 g/mol}

mole = 0.585 mol

we have 0.585 mol of S₈

Step 3: Use mole ratio to find moles of SO₂

The mole ratio of S₈ and SO₂ can be found using balanced equation which is 1:8

That means 1 mol of S₈ can form 8 moles of SO₂.

Let us use this as a conversion factor to find moles of SO₂

0.585 mol (S_{8}) \times \frac{8 mol (SO_{2})}{1 mol (S_{8})}  = 4.68 mol

Therefore we have 4.68 moles of SO₂

(b) Once the ionic solid has dissolved, the anion that is formed is able to react as a base, with water as the acid. Write the n
Marrrta [24]

Answer:

b C₂H₃O₂⁻ + H₂O ⇄ HC₂H₃O₂ + OH⁻

e HC₂H₃O₂ + H₂O ⇄ H₃O⁺ + C₂H₃O₂⁻

f ka<<1

g. Weak acid molecules and water molecules

Explanation:

The water molecule could act as a base and as an acid, a molecule that have this property is called as amphoteric.

b The salt NaC₂H₃O₂ is dissolved in water as Na⁺ and C₂H₃O₂⁻. The reaction of the anion with water is:

<em>C₂H₃O₂⁻ + H₂O ⇄ HC₂H₃O₂ + OH⁻</em>

Where the C₂H₃O₂⁻ is the base and water is the acid.

e. The reaction of HC₂H₃O₂ (acid) with water (base), produce:

<em>HC₂H₃O₂ + H₂O ⇄ H₃O⁺ + C₂H₃O₂⁻</em>

f. As the acetic acid (HC₂H₃O₂) is a week acid, the dissociation in C₂H₃O₂⁻ is not complete, that means that <em>ka<<1</em>

g. The ka for this reaction is 1,8x10⁻⁵, that means that there are more <em>weak acid molecules</em> (HC₂H₃O₂) than conjugate base ions. Also, the <em>water molecules </em>will be in higher proportion than hydronium ions.

I hope it helps!
