kupik [55]

The solution 550 ml total and first we will find the amount of alcohol. 3% = 0.03 550 ml x .03 = 16.5 ml alcohol
 Then to find the amount of water used, we just have to subtract the amount of alcohol from the total volume  
550 ml total - 16.5 ml alcohol = 533.5 ml water

Drag each item to indicate whether it is related to Aristotle's or Ptolemy's model of the solar system, or to both. Some items m
Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

Answer:

<u>Aristotle's Model :</u>

geocentric

planets fixed on nested spheres

<u></u>

<u>Ptolemy's model:</u>

geocentric

planets fixed on epicycles

accurately predicted the positions of the planets

Explanation:

Let's begin by the fact both models are geocentric  and make a brief explanation of them:

<u></u>

<u>Aristotle's Model :</u>

Aristotle built his model based on observations and philosophical assumptions, not on measurements or calculations, then he mistakenly thought the Earth was the center of the universe.

So, according to this model, the universe was spherical and finite, with the Earth immobile at its center, composed of the four fundamental elements (made up of spherical layers): <em>ground, water, air and fire</em>; and the Sun along with the fixed planets in their respective concentric spheres (also called nested spheres) revolving around the Earth.

<u>Ptolemy's model:</u>

Ptolemy's model of the universe was also geocentric, placing the Earth motionless in the center of the known universe and was the accepted model for a long time during the Middle Ages.

In this sense, ccording to Ptolemy's model of the universe our planet remains stationary while the other planets, the Moon and the Sun describe complicated orbits around it (called epicycles).

However, this model predicted with an acceptable accuracy for that time the motion of the known planets, until Copernicus appeared with the revolutionary Heliocentric model.

How do you decide whether an observed property of matter is a physical or a chemical property?
Otrada [13]
By the object's composition and the acting agent to which factors the change of the substance or entity.
<span>The effect of physical property of matter on the object or substance can be better identified when the object doesn't change in composition or in nature. Unlike chemical property which has changed in its composition and atomic structure that was caused by chemical change or reaction due to an agent. Physical property is identified thru physical reactions or changes that has never changed the object in an atomic level, like cutting paper into smaller sizes. The aforementioned example illustrates physical proerty but being cut into smaller buts without changing the object from paper to any other substance, thus, its structure remain and its still called paper regardless of size, mass and texture. <span>

What are the names of the following three compounds (see attached)
balu736 [363]

Answer:

1. 4-ethyl-1-heptene

2. 6-ethyl-2-octene

3. 1-butyne

Explanation:

The compounds are named according to IUPAC rules.

Compound 1:

  • Identify the longest carbon chain. This chain is called the parent chain.
  • Identify all of the substituents (groups appending from the parent chain).
  • The parent chain is numbered so that the multiple bonds have the lowest numbers (double has the priority over alkyl substituents).
  • The longest chain contains 7 carbon atoms, so taken the name hept.
  • The double bond between C1 and C2, so take no. 1 and add the suffix ene to hept "1-heptene".
  • The ethyl group is the alkyl substituent on position 4.
  • So the name is 4-ethyl-1-heptene.

Compound 2:

  • Identify the longest carbon chain. This chain is called the parent chain.
  • Identify all of the substituents (groups appending from the parent chain).
  • The parent chain is numbered so that the multiple bonds have the lowest numbers (double has the priority over alkyl substituents).
  • The longest chain contains 8 carbon atoms, so taken the name oct.
  • The double bond between C2 and C3, so take no. 2 and add the suffix ene to oct "2-octene".
  • The ethyl group is the alkyl substituent on position 6.
  • So the name is 6-ethyl-2-octene.

Compound 3:

  • Identify the longest carbon chain. This chain is called the parent chain.
  • Identify all of the substituents (groups appending from the parent chain), there is no substituents.
  • The parent chain is numbered so that the multiple bonds have the lowest numbers (Triple bond here take the lowest number).
  • The longest chain contains 4 carbon atoms, so taken the name but.
  • The triple bond between C1 and C2, so take no. 1 and add the suffix yne to but "1-butyne".
  • So the name is 1-butyne.

What is Keq for the reaction N₂ + 3H2 = 2NH3 if the equilibrium
hram777 [196]

The Keq for the reaction N₂ + 3H2 = 2NH3 if the equilibrium concentrations are Keq = 1.5. The correct option is D.

<h3>What is Keq?</h3>

Keq is the ratio of the concentration of reactant to the concentration of the product.

The balanced equation is

N₂ + 3H₂  = 2NH₃

The equilibrium constant is \rm \dfrac{[NH_3]^2}{[N_2]\; [H_2]^3}

The given concentrations of the compounds have been:

Ammonia = 3 M

Nitrogen = 1 M

Hydrogen = 2 M

\rm \dfrac{9}{1\times 8} = 1.5

Thus, the correct option is D. Keq = 1.5.
