The city is using sand trucks to place on the road during ice conditions which best explians the use of the sand

1 answer:

6 0

The sand provides a rough surface on top of the ice for the cars' tires to grip onto. It provides more friction. Salt melts the ice and often provides more friction (the disadvantage is that it eats concrete!).

Determine the mass of each sample 1.55 kmol sulfur trioxide

xxMikexx [17]

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Number of moles of the sulfur trioxide = 1.55kmol = 1.55 x 10³mole

Unknown:

Mass of the sulfur trioxide = ?

Solution:

To solve for the mass of the sample of sulfur trioxide:

Find the molar mass of the compound i.e SO₃

atomic mass of S = 32g

O = 16g

molar mass = 32 + 3(16) = 80g/mol

Use the formula below:

mass of SO₃ = number of moles x molar mass

mass of SO₃ = 1.55 x 10³ x 80 = 124000g or 124kg

(I)how many atoms are present in 7g of lithium?

ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer :

(i) The number of atoms present in 7 g of lithium are, $6.07\times 10^{23}$

(ii) The number of atoms present in 7 g of lithium are, $1.204\times 10^{24}$

(iii) The number of moles of $F_2$ is, 1 mole

The number of moles of $CO_2$ is, 0.5 mole

The number of moles of $OH^-$ is, 1 mole

Explanation :

Part (i) :

First we have to calculate the moles of lithium.

$\text{Moles of }Li=\frac{\text{Mass of }Li}{\text{Molar mass of }Li}$

Molar mass of Li = 6.94 g/mole

$\text{Moles of }Li=\frac{7g}{6.94g/mol}=1.008mole$

Now we have to calculate the number of atoms present.

As, 1 mole of lithium contains $6.022\times 10^{23}$ number of atoms

So, 1.008 mole of lithium contains $1.008\times 6.022\times 10^{23}=6.07\times 10^{23}$ number of atoms

Thus, the number of atoms present in 7 g of lithium are, $6.07\times 10^{23}$

Part (ii) :

First we have to calculate the moles of carbon.

$\text{Moles of }C=\frac{\text{Mass of }C}{\text{Molar mass of }C}$

Molar mass of C = 12 g/mole

$\text{Moles of }C=\frac{24g}{12g/mol}=2mole$

Now we have to calculate the number of atoms present.

As, 1 mole of carbon contains $6.022\times 10^{23}$ number of atoms

So, 2 mole of carbon contains $2\times 6.022\times 10^{23}=1.204\times 10^{24}$ number of atoms

Thus, the number of atoms present in 7 g of lithium are, $1.204\times 10^{24}$

Part (iii) :

To calculate the moles of $F_2$ :

$\text{Moles of }F_2=\frac{\text{Mass of }F_2}{\text{Molar mass of }F_2}$

Molar mass of $F_2$ = 38 g/mole

$\text{Moles of }F_2=\frac{19g}{19g/mol}=1mole$

Thus, the number of moles of $F_2$ is, 1 mole

To calculate the moles of $CO_2$ :

$\text{Moles of }CO_2=\frac{\text{Mass of }CO_2}{\text{Molar mass of }CO_2}$

Molar mass of $CO_2$ = 44 g/mole

$\text{Moles of }CO_2=\frac{22g}{44g/mol}=0.5mole$

Thus, the number of moles of $CO_2$ is, 0.5 mole

To calculate the moles of $OH^-$ ions :

$\text{Moles of }OH^-=\frac{\text{Mass of }OH^-}{\text{Molar mass of }OH^-}$

Molar mass of $OH^-$ = 17 g/mole

$\text{Moles of }OH^-=\frac{17g}{17g/mol}=1mole$

Thus, the number of moles of $OH^-$ is, 1 mole

Why is climate change a concern when it comes to animal behavior and ability to reproduce

kow [346]

Answer:

hope this helps! :)

Explanation:

While humans and many other animals determine sex genetically, many reptiles and some fish use the incubation temperature of the eggs to set the gender of their offspring. This means that changing global temperatures could alter the ratio of sexes produced, making it harder for these animals to find mates
