What's the answer to number 5? I need the answer quickly please

That's because the specific heat capacity of water is higher than specific heat capacity of iron, meaning that the water would need to lose more heat energy to drop its temperature.

Water has a higher boiling point than expected because

Nadya [2.5K]

Evaporation occurs when water molecules on the surface gain enough energy to enter the atmosphere. However, stronger intermolecular forces between water molecules cause them to be strongly attracted to each other and to tend to stay in the liquid phase. When the temperature is raised (when heat is applied), more molecules gain the energy needed to escape these intermolecular forces and go into the vapor phase.
Therefore the best answer is D.

A 0.1 mm sample of human blood has approximately 6000 red blood cells. An adult typically has 5.0 L of blood. How many red blood

olga55 [171]

3.0 × 10¹¹ RBC's (or) 3E11 RBC's

Solution:

Step 1: Convert mm³ into L;

As,

1 mm³ = 1.0 × 10⁻⁶ Liters

So,

0.1 mm³ = X Liters

Solving for X,

X = (0.1 mm³ × 1.0 × 10⁻⁶ Liters) ÷ 1 mm³

X = 1.0 × 10⁻⁷ Liters

Step 2: Calculate No. of RBC's in 5 Liter Blood:

As given

1.0 × 10⁻⁷ Liters Blood contains = 6000 RBC's

So,

5.0 Liters of Blood will contain = X RBC's

Solving for X,

X = (5.0 Liters × 6000 RBC's) ÷ 1.0 × 10⁻⁷ Liters

X = 3.0 × 10¹¹ RBC's

Or,

X = 3E11 RBC's

When an object is lifted 6 meters off the ground, it gains a certain amount of potential energy. If the same object is lifted 18

AlexFokin [52]

Answer:

The answer to your question is the letter C. three times as much

Explanation:

Data

First step = 6 m

Second step = 18 m

Potential energy is the energy stored that depends on its position.

Formula

Pe = mgh

m = mass; g = gravity; h = height

Potential energy of the first step

Pe1 = 6mg

Potential energy of the second step

Pe2 = 18mg

-Divide the Pe2 by the Pe1

Pe2/Pe1 = 18mg/6mg

= 3

Hydrocyanic acid, HCN, is a weak acid. (a) Write the chemical equation for the dissociation of HCN in water. (b) Identify the Br

12345 [234]

Answer: a) $HCN(aq.)+H_2O\rightleftharoons H_3O^+(aq.)+CN^-(aq.)$

b) $HCN$ : acid $CN^-$ :conjugate base.

And, $H_2O$ : base $H_3O^+$ : conjugate acid.

c) $HCN(aq.)+NaOH(aq)\rightleftharoons NaCN(aq.)+H_2O(l)$

d) $NaCN(aq)\rightarrow Na^+(aq.)+CN^-(aq)$

e) $NaCN(aq)+HCl(aq)\rightarrow NaCl(aq.)+HCN(aq)$

Explanation:

a) Weak acid is defined as the acid which does not completely dissociates when dissolved in water. They have high pH. These releases $H^+$ ions in their aqueous states.

The equation for the dissociation of $HCN$ acid is given by:

$HCN(aq.)+H_2O\rightleftharoons H_3O^+(aq.)+CN^-(aq.)$

b) According to the Bronsted-Lowry conjugate acid-base theory, an acid is defined as a substance which looses donates protons and thus forming conjugate base and a base is defined as a substance which accepts protons and thus forming conjugate acid.

For the given chemical equation:

$HCN$ is loosing a proton, thus it is considered as an acid and after losing a proton, it forms $CN^-$ which is a conjugate base.

And, $H_2O$ is gaining a proton, thus it is considered as a base and after gaining a proton, it forms $H_3O^+$ which is a conjugate acid.

c) Neutralization reaction is a reaction in which an acid reacts with base to produce salt and water.

$HCN(aq.)+NaOH(aq)\rightarrow NaCN(aq.)+H_2O(l)$

d) The chemical equation for dissociation of $NaCN$ in water.

$NaCN(aq)\rightarrow Na^+(aq.)+CN^-(aq)$

e) The chemical equation for the reaction of $NaCN$ and $HCI$

$NaCN(aq)+HCl(aq)\rightarrow NaCl(aq.)+HCN(aq)$
