Answer:

18 moles

Explanation:

Here the combustion of one mole of glucose ----> carbon dioxide + water, releases 2870 kilojoules / moles.

_______________________________________________________

With one contraction cycle requiring 55 kilojoules,

2870 / 55 ≈ 52.18

And with the efficiency being 35 percent,

52.1818..... * 0.35 = ( About ) 18 moles

<u><em>Hope that helps!</em></u>

Nastasia [14]
The balanced chemical reaction is expressed as follows:

<span>CuCl2 (aq) + 2AgNO3 (aq) → 2AgCl (s) + CuNO32 (aq)

To determine the </span><span>concentration of copper(II) chloride contaminant in the original groundwater sample, we use the final amount of silver chloride that was produced from the reaction and the relation of the substances from the chemical reaction. We calculate as follows:

mmol AgCl = 6.1 mg AgCl ( 1 mmol / 143.35 mg ) = 0.0426 mmol
mmol CuCl2 = </span>0.0426 mmol AgCl ( 1 mmol CuCl2 / 2 mmol AgCl ) = 0.0213 mmol CuCl2
concentration of CuCl2 in the original water sample = 0.0213 mmol CuCl2 / 200.0 mL = 1.0638 x 10^-4 mmol / mL or 1.0638 x 10^-4 mol/L

Find the no. of atoms present in 40g of nitrogen gas at STP?
nika2105 [10]

Answer:

8.60 * 10^{23} atoms N2

Explanation:

We want to convert grams to moles and then moles to atoms.

First, we convert grams of nitrogen gas (which is N2) to moles. To do so, we need the molar mass of N2, which is just 14.01 * 2 = 28.02 g.

40 g N2 * \frac{1 mol N2}{28.02 g N2} = 1.43 mol N2

Now, we need to convert moles to atoms by using Avogadro's number, which is 6.022*10^{23}:

1.43 mol N2 * \frac{6.022*10^{23} atoms N2 }{1 mol N2} = 8.60 * 10^{23} atoms N2

Thus, the answer is 8.60 * 10^{23} atoms N2.

Which of the following contains the same number of electrons as an atom of neon?
asambeis [7]

Answer:

D. O^{2-}

Explanation:

In Chemistry, electrons can be defined as subatomic particles that are negatively charged and as such has a magnitude of -1.

Valence electrons can be defined as the number of electrons present in the outermost shell of an atom. Valence electrons are used to determine whether an atom or group of elements found in a periodic table can bond with others. Thus, this property is typically used to determine the chemical properties of elements.

Oxygen has a total number of eight (8) electrons and as such the O^{2-} is able to gain (receive) two (2) more electrons in order to have the same electron arrangements as the noble gas i.e an atom of neon that has a total number of ten (10) electrons.

Hence, O^{2-} contains the same number of electrons as an atom of neon.

Explain why a coin is able to float on top of water in a glass.
AlexFokin [52]
It is the concept of surface tension that helps the coin to float on the top of the water in the glass. The surface tension acts just opposite to the gravitational force and that is why when any metal placed in the water it will float and come on the surface. Hope this helps!
