Inches of mercury (inHg) is commonly used as unit of atmospheric pressure. It indicates the height of Hg (in inch) that atmosphe

ric pressure can support. If atmospheric pressure is 27.6 inHg, what is it in atm? Use decimals (not scientific notation) and 3 sig figs when entering your answer. Given: 1 in = 2.54 cm = 25.4 mm; 1 atm = 760 mmHg.

Answer:

The answer to your question is 0.92 atm

Explanation:

Data

Atmospheric pressure = 27.6 inHg

Atmospheric pressure = ? atm

Process

1.- Convert inHg to cmHg

                      1 in Hg ------------------- 2.54 cm

                    27.6 inHg ----------------- x

                     x = (27.6x 2.54) / 1

                     x = 70.1 cm

2.- Convert cmHg to mmHg

                     2.54 cm ----------------- 25.4 mmHg

                      70.1 cm ----------------  x

                      x = (70.1 x 25.4)/2.54

                      x = 701 mmHg

3.- Convert mmHg to atm

                      760 mmHg ------------- 1 atm

                      701 mmHg  -------------  x

                       x = (701 x 1)/760

                       x = 0.922 atm

Describe how the size of the sun compares to the sizes of the other stars.
alina1380 [7]

Answer:

The sun's circumference is about 2,713,406 miles (4,366,813 km). It may be the biggest thing in this neighborhood, but the sun is just average compared to other stars. Betelgeuse, a red giant, is about 700 times bigger than the sun and about 14,000 times brighter.

16. Formaldhyde has a mole ratio of 1 mole C: 2 moles H: 1 mole O. Its empirical formula is the same as its
Dominik [7]

Answer:

d. 97.60 g

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Number of moles of formaldehyde = 3.25moles

  Ratio:

                 C               H              O

                  1                2               1

Unknown:

Mass of this sample  = ?

Solution:

The empirical formula of a compound is its simplest formula. It is the simplest whole number ratio of the atoms in a given substance.

The molecular formula is the actual formula of the compound.

 Since the molecular and empirical formula are the same here, the formula of the compound is;

                   CH₂O

To find the mass of the formaldehyde, use the expression below;

        Mass  = number of moles x molar mass

             molar mass of CH₂O = 12 + 2(1) + 16  = 30g/mol

      Mass  = 3.25 x 30  = 97.5g

During an experiment, it is observed that iron powder sinks in water and sulfur powder floats in water. What will most likely be
lutik1710 [3]

Sulfur will float, and iron will sink because each will retain its properties.

“Iron will float, and sulfur will sink because each will lose its properties” is <em>incorrect</em>. A substance will lose its properties only if it reacts to form a new substance.

“Both will float because they are physically mixed” is <em>incorrect</em>. The substances in a mixture retain their properties.

“Both will float because they react chemically” is <em>incorrect</em>. Iron and sulfur do not react at room temperature. Even if they did, the iron sulfide would sink.
