Vehicle gasoline has many slightly different compositions depending on local laws. However, on average it has a density of 0.737

kg/L. This morning you pumped 7.2 gallons of gasoline in order to fill up your fuel tank. How much mass have you added to your car, in kilograms?
1 gal = 3.785 L

Answer: 20.1 kg.

Explanation:

To calculate mass of a substance, we use the equation:

\text{Density of substance}=\frac{\text{Mass of substance}}{\text{Volume of substance}}

We are given:

Density of gasoline = 0.737kg/L

Volume of gasoline = 7.2gallons=7.2\times 3.785L=27.252L     (Conversion factor: 1gal=3.785L )

Putting values in above equation, we get:

0.737kg/L=\frac{\text{Mass of gasoline}}{27.252L}\\\\\text{Mass of gasoline}=20.084kg

The rule apply for multiplication and division is :

The least precise number present after the decimal point determines the number of significant figures in the answer, thus the answer musty have three significant digits.

Hence, the mass added is 20.1 kg.

1. What specifically are you looking for in the IR spectrum to determine if the reaction has given the desired product? 2. What
Umnica [9.8K]

Answer:

You are looking for expected peaks in absorption spectra founded on structure of desired product, respectively on bound in desired compound. Every bond absorb specific energy from radiation which wavelength match to IR spectrum of light. Result of energy absorption is vibration of bond and bonded atoms (if they are not too heavy).That absorbed energy is seen as a peak in absorption spectra. These peaks are specific for each bound so you need to find peaks that mach to bounds in your desired compound and in that matter you can identify your compound.

In nuclear magnetic resonance you are looking for  peaks specific for atoms in your desired compound (H or C atoms). When external magnetic field is applied, atom goes in higher energy state. When atoms goes "relaxing", it releasing energy that mach energy gap from relaxed end excited state. That energy is detected on nuclear magnetic resonance spectra and it depends on neighbor atom so you can determine the position of atoms and identify structure of desired compound.

For better results it is the best to combine these two methods.

What is the mass of a liquid that has a volume of 50.0ml and a density of 2.40g/ml?
Iteru [2.4K]

Answer:

120g Using Density Equation.

Explanation:

Density =mass/volume

We need to the solve for the mass.

Mass=Density * Volume

Mass= 2.40 g/ml * 50.0 ml = 120g

An object has a weight of 5.10 Newtons (N) at sea level, where the acceleration due to gravity is 9.81 m/s2.
RUDIKE [14]
Well, you could get the mass as m=\frac{G_0}{g_0} ad then g_1=\frac{G_1}{m}, where G_0 is the sea level weight, g_0 the sea level accel., g_1 the accel. above while G_1 the weight above.
