As space exploration increases, means of communication with humans and probes on other planets are being developed. (a) How much

time (in s) does it take for a radio wave of frequency 8.93 x 10⁷ s⁻¹ to reach Mars, which is 8.1 x 10⁷ km from Earth? (b) If it takes this radiation 1.2 s to reach the Moon, how far (in m) is the Moon from Earth?

Answer:

Explanation:

a ) Speed of radio waves in space = speed of light in space

= 3 x 10⁸ m /s

Time taken = distance / speed

= 8.1 x 10⁷ x 10³ / 3 x 10⁸ s

= 2.7 x 10² s

= 270 s

b )

Distance = speed x time

= 3 x 10⁸ x 1.2 m

= 3.6 x 10⁸ m

= 3.6 x 10⁵ km

The heats of combustion of ethane (C2H6) and butane (C4H10) are 52 kJ/g and 49 kJ/g, respectively. We need to produce 1.000 x 10
LekaFEV [45]

Answer :

(1) The number of grams needed of each fuel (C_2H_6)\text{ and }(C_4H_{10}) are 19.23 g and 20.41 g respectively.

(2) The number of moles of each fuel (C_2H_6)\text{ and }(C_4H_{10}) are 0.641 moles and 0.352 moles respectively.

(3) The balanced chemical equation for the combustion of the fuels.

C_2H_6+\frac{7}{2}O_2\rightarrow 2CO_2+3H_2O

C_4H_{10}+\frac{13}{2}O_2\rightarrow 4CO_2+5H_2O

(4) The number of moles of CO_2 produced by burning each fuel is 1.28 mole and 1.41 mole respectively.

The fuel that emitting least amount of CO_2 is C_2H_6

Explanation :

<u>Part 1 :</u>

First we have to calculate the number of grams needed of each fuel (C_2H_6)\text{ and }(C_4H_{10}).

As, 52 kJ energy required amount of C_2H_6 = 1 g

So, 1000 kJ energy required amount of C_2H_6 = \frac{1000}{52}=19.23g

and,

As, 49 kJ energy required amount of C_4H_{10} = 1 g

So, 1000 kJ energy required amount of C_4H_{10} = \frac{1000}{49}=20.41g

<u>Part 2 :</u>

Now we have to calculate the number of moles of each fuel (C_2H_6)\text{ and }(C_4H_{10}).

Molar mass of C_2H_6 = 30 g/mole

Molar mass of C_4H_{10} = 58 g/mole

\text{ Moles of }C_2H_6=\frac{\text{ Mass of }C_2H_6}{\text{ Molar mass of }C_2H_6}=\frac{19.23g}{30g/mole}=0.641moles

and,

\text{ Moles of }C_4H_{10}=\frac{\text{ Mass of }C_4H_{10}}{\text{ Molar mass of }C_4H_{10}}=\frac{20.41g}{58g/mole}=0.352moles

<u>Part 3 :</u>

Now we have to write down the balanced chemical equation for the combustion of the fuels.

The balanced chemical reaction for combustion of C_2H_6 is:

C_2H_6+\frac{7}{2}O_2\rightarrow 2CO_2+3H_2O

and,

The balanced chemical reaction for combustion of C_4H_{10} is:

C_4H_{10}+\frac{13}{2}O_2\rightarrow 4CO_2+5H_2O

<u>Part 4 :</u>

Now we have to calculate the number of moles of CO_2 produced by burning each fuel to produce 1000 kJ.

C_2H_6+\frac{7}{2}O_2\rightarrow 2CO_2+3H_2O

From this we conclude that,

As, 1 mole of C_2H_6 react to produce 2 moles of CO_2

As, 0.641 mole of C_2H_6 react to produce 0.641\times 2=1.28 moles of CO_2

and,

C_4H_{10}+\frac{13}{2}O_2\rightarrow 4CO_2+5H_2O

From this we conclude that,

As, 1 mole of C_4H_{10} react to produce 4 moles of CO_2

As, 0.352 mole of C_4H_{10} react to produce 0.352\times 4=1.41 moles of CO_2

So, the fuel that emitting least amount of CO_2 is C_2H_6

How many cubic centimeters are there in 200 milliliters?
DiKsa [7]

Answer:

200 mL = 200 cm³

Explanation:

The relationship between cm³ and mL is 1:1.

1 cm³ = 1 mL

Thus, 200 mL is converted to cm³ as follows:

(200 mL)(1 cm³/1 mL) = 200 cm³

Which equation represents single replacement reaction? A) CH4 + 2 02 → CO2 + 2 H2O B) CaCO3 + CaO + CO2 C) 2 Na + 2 H2O → 2 NaOH
loris [4]

Answer:

C) 2 Na + 2 H2O → 2 NaOH + H2.

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, according to the given chemical reactions, it is possible to firstly understand that a single displacement reaction is characterized by the presence of a single element as the first reactant and a compound as the second one, thus, yielding a compound as the first product and a single element as the second one.

In such a way, according to the given choices, it possible to note that C) 2 Na + 2 H2O → 2 NaOH + H2 is the only one with the aforementioned condition as the element at the reactants side is Na and at the products side is H2.

Best regards!
