Answer:

142240

Explanation:

We are told in the question:

Height of Gateway Arch in St. Louis, MO = 630ft

We are asked, how many U.S. dimes would be in a stack of the same

height when 1 dime is 1.35 mm thick.

Step 1

Convert height in ft to mm

1 ft = 304.8 mm

630ft =

Cross Multiply

630ft × 304.8mm/1ft

= 192024 mm.

Step 2

To find how many US dimes would be in a stack of the same height

= Total thickness/ Thickness of 1 US dime

= 192024 mm/1.35mm

= 142240

Therefore, the number of dimes that would be in a stack of the same

height is 142240

hodyreva [135]

Answer:

Methanol would be used as a reagent in excess, since it is a very low-cost solvent. For product isolation, the first thing to do is remove the methanol through a distillation process. The residue produced can be dissolved in diethyl ether. Using a NaHCO₃ solution, extraction is performed. When it separates into two phases, the product will be in the ether and the reagent in the aqueous phase. The ether can also be removed by distillation, and at the end of this process you will have the product you want.

15 grams of sodium reacts with a certain amount of chlorine to yield 37 grams of sodium chloride, as shown below.
ale4655 [162]

Answer: 22g of chlorine would be needed to carry out this synthesis reaction

Explanation:

A synthesis reaction is one in which two or more than two elements combine together to forma single product.

Na+Cl\rightarrow NaCl

The atoms present in the reactants are found on the product side. According to the law of conservation of mass, the number of atoms on both sides of the arrow must be same as the total mass must be conserved.

15 grams of sodium reacts with 22 grams of chlorine to yield 37 grams of sodium chloride. Thus 22g of chlorine would be needed to carry out this synthesis reaction.

Silver is a white metal that is an excellent conductor. Silver tarnishes when exposed to air and light. The density of silver is
Stells [14]

Answer:

c tarnishes in air

Explanation:

After silver has been exposed to air that contains sulphur gases, discoloration would occur. there would be darkening that is caused by the reaction with gases.When any silver object tarnishes, it brings about a disfiguring of that object. Hydrogen sulphide would be needed for this to happen. silver sulphide is black and a if a thin layer should form on any surface, it ill darken it. This  is what we refer to as tarnishing.

Mrrafil [7]
#1: The element that loses electrons in a chemical reaction is said to have been which of the following? A. reduced

B. oxidized

C. combusted

D. rusted

**idk, is it reduced or oxidized??

Answer: oxidized. The element that loses electrons increases its oxidation number (becomes more positve or less negative) and this is oxidation.


Which type of reaction occurs if one element gains electrons and another loses electrons?

A. combustion

B. synthesis

C. oxidation-reduction

D. double-displacement

**my answer: C

Yes, oxidation-reduction

#3: What is the oxidation number for phosphorus in H4P2O7?

A. +5

B. +3

C. +1

D. - 1

**my answer: A. +5

This is the way to calculate it 4(+1) + 2x + 7(-2) = 0 => x = +5



#4: What is the oxidation number for phosphorus in Na2HPO3?

A. +5

B. +3

C. +1

D. - 1

**my answer; B. +3

is that right??

Right

2(+1) + 1 + x + 3(-2) = 0 => x = 6 -1 -2 = 3 (positive)
