Answer:

Covalent Bonding

Explanation:

P4O10 is a chemical compound generally known as Phosphorus pentoxide, derived from its empirical formula P2O5. P4O10 is technically called tetraphosphorus decaoxide, but under normal conditions it only exists as the dimer of P2O5, which is phosphorus (V) oxide, or phosphorus pentaoxide.

P4010 consists of two elements; phosphorus and oxygen. P4O10 is a covalent compound. This is because Phosphorous and Oxygen are both nonmetals, the bond formed is as a result of sharing of electrons.

How many grams of sodium formate, NaCHO2, would have to be dissolved in 3.0 L of 0.12 M formic acid (pKa 3.74) to make the solut
kolbaska11 [484]

Answer:

Mass_{sodium\ formate}= 889.57\ g

Explanation:

Considering the Henderson- Hasselbalch equation for the calculation of the pH of the acidic buffer solution as:

pH=pK_a+log\frac{[salt]}{[acid]}

Given that:-

[Acid] = 0.12 M

Volume = 3.0 L

pKa = 3.74

pH = 5.30

So,  

5.30=3.74+log\frac{[sodium\ formate]}{0.12}

Solving, we get that:-

[Sodium formate] = 4.36 M

Considering:

Molarity=\frac{Moles\ of\ solute}{Volume\ of\ the\ solution}

So,

Moles =Molarity \times {Volume\ of\ the\ solution}

So, Moles of sodium formate = 4.36*3.0 moles = 13.08 moles

Molar mass of sodium formate = 68.01 g/mol

The formula for the calculation of moles is shown below:

moles = \frac{Mass\ taken}{Molar\ mass}

Thus,

13.08\ mole= \frac{Mass}{68.01\ g/mol}

Mass_{sodium\ formate}= 889.57\ g

The label on a pressurized can of spray disinfectant warns against heating the can above 130 degree fahrenheit . What are the co
Leviafan [203]

Answer : The temperature in degree Celsius and Kelvin is, 54.44^oC\text{ and }327.59K respectively.

Explanation :

The conversion used for the temperature from Fahrenheit to degree Celsius is:

^oC=(^oF-32)\times \frac{5}{9}

where,

^oF = temperature in Fahrenheit  

^oC = temperature in centigrade

The conversion used for the temperature from degree Celsius to Kelvin is:

K=273.15+^oC

where,

K = temperature in Kelvin

^oC = temperature in centigrade

As we are given the temperature in Fahrenheit is, 130

Now we have to determine the temperature in degree Celsius.

^oC=(^oF-32)\times \frac{5}{9}

^oC=(130^oF-32)\times \frac{5}{9}

^oC=54.44

Now we have to determine the temperature in Kelvin.

K=273.15+^oC

K=273.15+(54.44^oC)

K=327.59

Therefore, the temperature in degree Celsius and Kelvin are, 54.44^oC\text{ and }327.59K

A topographical map would be useful for which activity? A. planning a hiking trip B. studying plant growth over time C. studying
amm1812
The answer is A. planning a hiking trip

A topographical map would not help studying plant growth over time unless you are looking for a better altitude to plant said plants.

A topographical map would not help studying rainfall for one year unless your location was <em>really</em> so high or low that it affected your weather

And most of all, a topographical map would not be useful for planning a cuise across the Atlantic Ocean because the elevation of the sea is zero!

A topographical map <em>would</em> be useful for planning a hiking trip because there are many factors and details that a hike should have. Which includes height, distance, paths, and elevation.

babunello [35]

Answer: Using biofuels instead of fossil fuels because biofuels are renewable is an example of renewable sources.

Explanation:

Biofuels is an example of renewable sources because biofuels is extracted from different parts of plants such as leaves and stem etc and plants is grown again and again and biofuels is again extracted from it. So we can say that biofuels is a renewable source.
