Answer:

b. 2.25 x 10^-3 M

Explanation:

Please remember that according to Beer´s, law the absorbance is given by

A = Acl where A = absorbance, A is the molar absorptivity, c is concentration (M) and l is the path length of the cubette of used.

Now it follows from this equation that the absorbance is linearly related to concentration and what we are being told is that experimentally the linear equation obtained during calibration was:

A = 195 c + 0.079

We have all the information required to solve this question to solve for c:

0.517 = 195 c + 0.079 ⇒ c = (0.517 - 0.079) AU/ 195 AU/M = 2.25 x 10⁻³ M

What is the difference between Renewable Energy and Non renewable Energy? Which one is better for the environment and why? Also
goblinko [34]

Answer:

The difference between them is that renewable energy is something that can be used practically and not run out. Non-renewable energy has a limited supply.

Explanation:

Renewable energy is better for the environment as it is not something that takes millions of years to form, as some non-renewable energy sources are.

Brainliest please! :>

When studying atoms, scientists can ignore the
vekshin1

When studying atoms, scientists can ignore <u>the Gravitational</u> force between charged particles that make up  the atoms because it is many millions of times smaller than other forces in the atom.

Explanation:

Scientists can ignore the gravitational force because the gravitational force is considered to be negligible as compared to the other forces due to its smaller value.We all know that the gravitational force is directly proportional to the mass of an object which  result in  a small force value.When the value of this small force is compared to the value of the electrical force between protons and electrons in atoms the we can say that the electrical force is million times stronger than the gravitational force

Thus we can say that scientists can ignore <u>the Gravitational</u> force between charged particles that make up  the atoms because it is many millions of times smaller than other forces in the atom.

The reaction of nitrogen gas and oxygen gas to form nitrogen monoxide gas is shown below. If the measured concentrations of all
Anettt [7]

Answer:

The forward reaction is occurring at a faster rate than the reverse reaction.

Explanation:

Reaction quotient (Q) of the given reaction is -

                                     Q=\frac{[NO]^{2}}{[N_{2}][O_{2}]}

where [NO], [N_{2}] and [O_{2}] represents concentrations of respective species at a certain time.

Here [N_{2}]= 0.80 M, [O_{2}]= 0.050 M and [NO] = 0.10 M

So, Q=\frac{(0.10)^{2}}{(0.80)\times (0.050)}=2

Hence Q> K

It means that forward reaction is faster than reverse reaction at that point. Because then only concentration of NO is higher than concentrations of [N_{2}] and [O_{2}] which makes Q higher than K.

Which equations represent precipitation reactions? More than one can be chosen.
Ymorist [56]

Answer is:

A. Na₂S + FeBr₂ → 2NaBr + FeS.

B. MgSO₄ + CaCl₂ → MgCl₂ + CaSO₄.

E. AgNO₃ + NaCl → AgCl + NaNO₃.

Iron sulfide (FeS) has low solubility in water.

Calcium sulfate (CaSO₄) has low solubility in water and it will form white precipitate.

Silver chloride (AgCl) has low solubility in water and it will form white precipitate.
