In each case, calculate the appropriate ratio to show that the information given is consistent with the law of multiple proporti

ons. (a) Both ammonia (NH3) and hydrazine (N2H4) are composed of nitrogen and hydrogen. Ammonia contains 0.2158 g hydrogen for every gram of nitrogen. Hydrazine contains 0.1439 g hydrogen for every gram of nitrogen. (b) Two of the compounds that consist of nitrogen and oxygen are nitric oxide, also known as nitrogen monoxide (NO) and nitrous oxide (N20), which is also known as dinitrogen monoxide. Nitric oxide contains 1.142 g oxygen for every gram of nitrogen. Nitrous oxide contains 0.571 g oxygen for every gram of nitrogen.

Answer:

(a) 3:2; (b) 2:1

Explanation:

The Law of Multiple Proportions states that when two elements A and B combine to form two or more compounds, the masses of B that combine with a given mass of A are in the ratios of small whole numbers.

That is, if one compound has a ratio r₁ and the other has a ratio r₂, the ratio of the ratios r is in small whole numbers.

(a) Ammonia and hydrazine.

In ammonia, the mass ratio of H:N is r₁ = 0.2158/1

In hydrazine, the mass ratio of H:N is r₂ = 0.1439/1

The ratio of the ratios is:

r = \dfrac{r_{1}}{r_{2}} = \dfrac{ 0.2158}{0.1439} = \dfrac{1.500 }{1} = \dfrac{2.999}{2} \approx \mathbf{\dfrac{3}{2}}\\\\\text{The relative amounts of H in the two compounds are in the ratio }\boxed{\mathbf{\dfrac{3}{2}}}

(b) Nitrogen oxides

In nitrogen monoxide, the mass ratio of O:N is r₁ = 1.142/1

In dinitrogen monoxide, the mass ratio of O:N is r₂ = 0.571/1

The ratio of the ratios is:

r = \dfrac{r_{1}}{r_{2}} = \dfrac{ 1.142}{0.571} = \dfrac{2.000 }{1} \approx \mathbf{\dfrac{2}{1}}\\\\\text{The relative amounts of O in the two compounds are in the ratio }\boxed{\mathbf{\dfrac{2}{1}}}

A football was thrown 25m for a touchdown in 2.5s, How fast was the ball traveling?
Verizon [17]

Answer:

V=?

S=25m

t=2.5s

V=S/t

V=25/2.5

V=10m/s

So, the ball was traveling with the speed of 10m/s.

What is the predominant intermolecular force in the liquid state of each of these compounds: water (H2O), carbon tetrabromide (C
Valentin [98]

Explanation:

  • Water -

It shows , Hydrogen bonding , Since ,

The molecule of water have a strong electronegative atom of oxygen and a hydrogen atom ,

So , the electronegative oxygen atom can interact with the other hydrogen atom of the other water molecule .

  • Carbon tetrabromide -

The molecule of Carbon tetrabromide have polar bonds of carbon and bromine atom , but overall the molecule is non - polar in nature , due to its tetraderal structure , hence ,

the molecule shows only dispersion forces .

  • dichloromethane -

The molecule of dichloromethane has Dipole Dipole forces due to difference in electronegativity between atoms .

A watt of is a unit of power equivalent to 1 joule per second (1 J/sec). In other words, a 60 watt light bulb consumes 60 joules
Juli2301 [7.4K]

The time the chocolate bar could power the laptop in hours is 0.00233 hrs.

Since 200 Calories of chocolate bar were burned to power the 100 Watt laptop, we need to find the number of joules on energy in 200 calories of chocolate bar.

Knowing that 4.2 Joules = 1 Calorie, then

200 Calories = 200 × 1 calorie = 200 × 4.2 Joules = 840 Joules

Since the power required by the laptop is 100 W = 100 J/s and Power, P = energy/time

so, time = energy/power

So, the time for the laptop to use 840 J of energy from the chocolate bar at a rate or power of 100 W = 100 J/s is

time = 840 J ÷ 100 J/s = 8.4 s

So, the time in hours is 8.4 s ÷ 3600 s/1 h = 0.00233 hrs (since 1 hr = 3600 s)

So, the time the chocolate bar could power the laptop in hours is 0.00233 hrs.
