Answer:

The eyeball is shortened.

Explanation:

Farsightedness, popularly known as difficulty seeing closely, is a common refractive problem, where the image in the eye forms after the retina rather than exactly over the retina, which hinders the brain's ability to process the image correctly. In farsightedness there is no difficulty in seeing objects from afar, but when you get closer, it becomes very difficult to focus on them.

The eyeball works the same way as a dark box: light enters the pupil and forms the image on the retina. The shape of the eye and cornea is perfect for the image to form in the right place (the macula), and then the information is sent to the brain by the optic nerve.

When you have farsightedness, the eyeball is a little shortened or the flatter cornea, so the image ends up forming after the retina, ie the image the retina captures is not correct.

Calculate the mass of CO2 that can be produced if the reaction of 54.0 g of propane and sufficient oxygen has a 64.0% yield.

Oduvanchick [21]

Answer:

103.9 g

Explanation:

C₃H₈ + 5O₂ → 3CO₂ + 4H₂O

First we convert 54.0 g of propane (C₃H₈) into moles, using its molar mass:

54.0 g ÷ 44 g/mol = 1.23 mol C₃H₈

Then we convert 1.23 moles of C₃H₈ into moles of CO₂, using the stoichiometric coefficients:

1.23 mol C₃H₈ * $\frac{3molCO_2}{1molC_3H_8}$ = 3.69 mol CO₂

We convert 3.69 moles of CO₂ into grams, using its molar mass:

3.69 mol CO₂ * 44 g/mol = 162.36 g

And apply the given yield:

162.36 g * 64.0/100 = 103.9 g

A piece of copper has a mass of 660 g. How many atoms does the sample contain?

son4ous [18]

The conversions that will be used are:

1 mole of copper / 63.5 grams of copper
6.02 x 10²³ atoms of copper / 1 mole of copper

Multiplying the given mass by these conversions,

660 g * (1 mol Cu / 63.5 g Cu) * (6.02 x 10²³ Cu atoms / 1 mole Cu)

The sample contains 6.25 x 10²⁴ atoms of copper

An empty beaker weighs 25.91 g. When completely filled with water, the beaker and its contents have a total mass of 333.85 g. Wh

Finger [1]

Answer:

The beaker holds 307.94 mL

Explanation:

As we know that the volume that beaker hold is the volume of water that occupied by it.

For this first we have to find mass of the water in the beaker

This can be calculated by the subtraction of beaker's weight from the weight of beaker and water.

weight of water (m) = total weight - weight of beaker

Empty weight of beaker = 25.91 g

Weight of beaker with water = 333.85 g

Weight of water = 333.85 - 25.91 = 307.94 g

Density of water = 1 g/mL

We have

Mass = Volume x density

307.94 = Volume x 1

Volume = 307.94 mL

The beaker holds 307.94 mL
