mass of C = 0.238 g

mass of H =0.00989 g

mass of Cl = 1.05 g

Explanation:

Determine the masses of carbon, hydrogen, and chlorine in the original sample of the solvent.

First we need to calculate the molar mass of carbon dioxide (CO₂) and water (H₂O)

molar mass of CO₂ = molar mass of C × 1 + molar mass of O × 2

molar mass of CO₂ = 12 × 1 + 16 × 2 = 44 g/mole

molar mass of H₂O = molar mass of H × 2 + molar mass of O × 1

molar mass of H₂O = 1 × 2 + 16 × 1 = 18 g/mole

Now, to find the mass of carbon and hydrogen in the original sample of solvent, we devise the following reasoning:

if              44 g of CO₂ contains 12 g of C

then   0.872 g of CO₂ contains X g of C

X = (0.872 × 12) / 44 = 0.238 g of C

if               18 g of H₂O contains 2 g of H

then   0.089 g of H₂O contains Y g of H

Y = (0.089 × 2) / 18 = 0.00989 g of H

And now, we can find the mass of chlorine:

mass of sample = mass of C + mass of H + mass of Cl

mass of Cl = mass of sample - mass of C - mass of H

mass of Cl = 1.30 - 0.238 - 0.00989

mass of Cl = 1.05 g

Which path will a carbon atom most likely travel from CO2 in the atmosphere to glucose in the cell of a secondary consumer
SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Answer:

See the answer below

Explanation:

<em>The carbon will have to travel in the form of CO2 from the atmosphere to a primary producer (green plant), from there to a primary consumer (herbivorous animal), and finally to a secondary consumer.</em>

The primary producer (a green plant) would fix the carbon in the CO2 to carbohydrate through a process known as photosynthesis. The equation of the process is as shown below:

6 CO_2 + 6 H_2O --> C_6H_1_2O_6 + 6 O_2

The carbon, now in the form of carbohydrate, would then be picked up by an animal (a primary consumer) that feeds on the green plant. The carbon would eventually get into a secondary consumer when the secondary consumer feeds on the primary consumer that fed on the green plant.

An empty Erlenmeyer flask weighs 241.3 g. When filled with water (d = 1.00 g/cm³), the flask and its contents weigh 489.1 g. (a)
miskamm [114]

The answer is- Volume of flask = 247.8 cm^3 or 247.8 mL.

Density (d) is defined as mass of substance divided by its volume. Thus, if mass and density are known, then Volume can be determined.

What is the formula of volume in terms of density?

  • Let mass of substance be 'm' and volume be 'V'. Thus, as per the definition of density, it is expressed as-

d = \frac{m}{V}

Thus, volume can be expressed as-

V =\frac{m}{d}

  • Now, mass of empty flask = 241.3 g and the mass of  (flask + Water) = 489.1 g.

Thus, mass of water = 489.1\ g- 241.3\ g = 247.8\ g.

  • Thus, mass of water = 247.8 g and density of water =1.00\ g/cm^3. Its volume is calculated as-

V = \frac{247.8\ g}{1.00\ g/cm^3}=247.8\ cm^3

  • Hence, volume of flask = 247.8 cm^3 or 247.8 mL.
