Answer:

23.8

Explanation:

Formula

weight % = weight of solute/ weight of solution x 100

weight of solution = weight of salt + weight of water

weight of solution = 1.62 lb + 5.20 lb = 6.82 lb

weight % = 1.62 / 6,82 x 100

weight % = 0.238 x 100

weight % = 23.8

Capsaicin, the compound that gives the hot taste to chili peppers, has the formula C18H27NO3. Its molar mass is 305.42 g/mol. Ca

stellarik [79]

Molar mass = 305.42 g/mol

C = ( 12 x 18 / 305.42 ) x 100 => 70.72 % of C

H = ( 1 x 27 / 305.42 ) x 100 => 8.84 % of H

N = ( 14 x 1 / 305.42 ) x 100 => 4.58 % of N

O = ( 16 x 3 / 305.42) x 100 => 15.71% of O

hope this helps!

Predict the boiling point of water at a pressure of 1.5 atm.

Lina20 [59]

Answer:

100.8 °C

Explanation:

The Clausius-clapeyron equation is:

$ln\frac{P_{1} }{P_{2}} =$ -Δ $\frac{H_{vap}}{r} (\frac{1}{T_{2}}-\frac{1}{T_{1}} )$

Where 'ΔHvap' is the enthalpy of vaporization; 'R' is the molar gas constant (8.314 j/mol); 'T1' is the temperature at the pressure 'P1' and 'T2' is the temperature at the pressure 'P2'

Isolating for T2 gives:

$T_{2}=(\frac{1}{T_{1}} -\frac{Rln\frac{P_{2}}{P_{1}} }{Delta H_{vap}}$

(sorry for 'deltaHvap' I can not input symbols into equations)

thus T2=100.8 °C

What is the density of an object that has a volume of 34.2 cm^3 and a mass of 19.6 g? (a) 0.573 g/cm^3 (b) 1.74 g/cm^3 (c) 670 g

KengaRu [80]

Answer: The density of the object will be $0.573g/cm^3$

Explanation:

Density is defined as the mass contained per unit volume.

$Density=\frac{mass}{Volume}$

Given : Mass of object = 19.6 grams

Volume of object= $34.2cm^3$

Putting in the values we get:

$Density=\frac{19.6g}{34.2cm^3}=0.573g/cm^3$

Thus density of the object will be $0.573g/cm^3$

Define alkylenes and alkanes

lawyer [7]

Answer:

Alkylenes: any of the series of unsaturated hydrocarbons containing a triple bond, including acetylene.

alkanes: Alkanes are organic compounds that consist entirely of single-bonded carbon and hydrogen atoms and lack any other functional groups. Alkanes have the general formula CnH2n+2 and can be subdivided into the following three groups: the linear straight-chain alkanes, branched alkanes, and cycloalkanes.
