Answer:

4.19 km and 107.35 degrees north of east

Explanation:

So in the end, the truck is (2.6 + 1.4 = 4km) north and 1.25 km west from the warehouse. We can use the Pythagorean formula to calculate the magnitude and direction α of the truck displacement from the warehouse:

s = \sqrt{s_n^2 + s_w^2} = \sqrt{4^2 + 1.25^2} = \sqrt{16 + 1.5625} = \sqrt{17.5625} = 4.19 km

tan\alpha = \frac{s_n}{s_w} = \frac{4}{1.25} = 3.2

\alpha = tan^{-1}3.2 = 1.27 rad \approx 72.65 degrees north or west or (180 - 72.65) = 107.35 degrees north of east

vichka [17]

Answer :

Part A : The partial pressure of argon is, 0.795 atm

Part B : The partial pressure of ethane is, 0.505 atm

Explanation :

<u>Part A :</u>

First we have to calculate the moles of argon.

Molar mass of argon = 39.95 g/mole

\text{Moles of argon}=\frac{\text{Mass of argon}}{\text{Molar mass of argon}}=\frac{1.30g}{39.95g/mol}=0.0325mole

Now we have to calculate the partial pressure of argon.

Using ideal gas equation :

PV = nRT

where,

P = Pressure of argon = ?

V = Volume of argon = 1.00 L

n = number of moles of argon = 0.0325 mole

R = Gas constant = 0.0821L.atm/mol.K

T = Temperature of argon = 25^oC=273+25=298K

Putting values in above equation, we get:

P_{Ar}=\frac{nRT}{V}

P_{Ar}=\frac{(0.0325mol)\times (0.0821L.atm/mol.K)\times (298K)}{1.00L}=0.795atm

The partial pressure of argon is, 0.795 atm

<u>Part B :</u>

Now we have to calculate the partial pressure of ethane.

As we know that,

Total pressure = Partial pressure of argon + Partial pressure of ethane

1.300 atm = 0.795 atm + Partial pressure of ethane

Partial pressure of ethane = 1.300 - 0.795

Partial pressure of ethane = 0.505 atm

The partial pressure of ethane is, 0.505 atm

(1) Arectangularmetal block with mass 18 kg has
sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

Volume=0.003m^3 density=6000kg/m^3

Explanation:

mass=18kg

volume=length x width x height

Volume of block=0.1x0.15x0.2

volume of block=0.003m^3

Density=mass ➗ volume

Density=18 ➗ 0.003

Density=6000kg/m^3

What would make bromine , a group 17 element, more similar to a noble gas?
son4ous [18]
It is more similar to a noble gas because noble gases are the group 18 elements. Noble gases are gases which have their outer shell complete and so cannot give out or gain any more electrons. And cannot react with other elements. Hope i helped.
