How can heat from the sun transfer from the cement to your feet

1 answer:

6 0

The sun is beating down on the concrete. it's a hot day, and you're in the house where it's conditioned. Your feet are fairly cool. When you step outside on the concrete the coldness in your feet seep into the concrete, and the heat from the concrete takes the cold away. It's like when a pot is on the stove, the pan transfers all it's cold to the hot, and the fire replaces the cold. Hope this helps!

Calculate the percent ionization of formic acid (hco2h) in a solution that is 0.311 m in formic acid and 0.189 m in sodium forma

ohaa [14]

Answer: 0.094%

Explanation:


1) Equilibrium chemical equation:


Only the ionization of the formic acid is the important part.


HCOOH(aq) ⇄ HCOO⁻(aq) + H⁺(aq).


2) Mass balance:


 HCOOH(aq) HCOO⁻(aq) H⁺(aq).

Start 0.311 0.189

Reaction - x +x +x

Final 0.311 - x 0.189 + x x

3) Acid constant equation:


Ka = [HCOO-] [N+] / [HCOOH] = (0.189 + x) x / (0.311 -x)


= (0.189 + x )x / (0.311 - x) = 0.000177

4) Solve the equation:

You can solve it exactly (it will lead to a quadratic equation so you can use the quadratiic formula). I suggest to use the fact that x is much much smaller than 0.189 and 0.311.


With that approximation the equation to solve becomes:

0.1890x / 0.311 = 0.000177, which leads to:

x = 0.000177 x 0.311 / 0.189 = 2.91 x 10⁻⁴ M

5) With that number, the percent of ionization (alfa) is:


percent of ionization = (moles ionized / initial moles) x 100 =


percent ionization = (concentration of ions / initial concentration) x 100 =


percent ionization = (0.000291 / 0.311)x 100 = 0.0936% = 0.094%

When comparing the two chair conformations for a monosubstituted cyclohexane ring, which type of substituent shows the greatest

Aleksandr [31]

Answer:

See the explanation

Explanation:

In this case, we have to keep in mind that in the monosubstituted product we only have to replace 1 hydrogen with another group. In this case, we are going to use the methyl group $CH_3$ .

In the axial position, we have a more steric hindrance because we have two hydrogens near to the $CH_3$ group. If we have more steric hindrance the molecule would be more unstable. In the equatorial positions, we don't any interactions because the $CH_3$ group is pointing out. If we don't have any steric hindrance the molecule will be more stable, that's why the molecule will the equatorial position.

See figure 1

I hope it helps!

A body was found with no evidence of rigor.

musickatia [10]

The person has just died or has been dead for 36-48 hours 2. A body was found exhibiting rigor throughout the entire body. ... The body has been dead for about 6-8 hours because rigor mortis takes 12 hours to compute so it must be before 12 hours but over 6.

g Determine the empirical formula for a compound that contains C, H and O. It contains 40.92% C, 4.58% H, and 54.50% O by mass.

Lady bird [3.3K]

Answer:

The empirical formula for the compound is C3H4O3

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

Carbon (C) = 40.92%

Hydrogen (H) = 4.58%

Oxygen (O) = 54.50%

The empirical formula for the compound can be obtained as follow:

C = 40.92%

H = 4.58%

O = 54.50%

Divide by their molar mass

C = 40.92/12 = 3.41

H = 4.58/1 = 4.58

O = 54.50/16 = 3.41

Divide by the smallest i.e 3.41

C = 3.41/3.41 = 1

H = 4.58/3.41 = 1.3

O = 3.41/3.41 = 1

Multiply through by 3 to express in whole number

C = 1 x 3 = 3

H = 1.3 x 3 = 4

O = 1 x 3 = 3

The empirical formula for the compound is C3H4O3
