A pencil has a density of .655 g/ml. It has a mass of 3.5g. What is its volume

Leviafan [203]

Answer:

<h3>The answer is 5.34 mL</h3>

Explanation:

The volume of a substance when given the density and mass can be found by using the formula

$volume = \frac{mass}{density}\\$

From the question

mass = 3.5 g

density = 0.655 g/mL

We have

$volume = \frac{3.5}{0.655} \\ = 5.343511450...$

We have the final answer as

Hope this helps you

) In the Deacon process for the manufacture of chlorine, HCl and O2 react to form Cl2 and H2O. Sufficient air (21 mole% O2, 79%

LiRa [457]

Answer:

Here's what I get.

Explanation:

1. Write the chemical equation

$\rm 4HCl + O$_{2} \longrightarrow \,$ 2Cl$_{2}$ + 2H$_{2}$O$

Assume that we start with 4 L of HCl

2. Calculate the theoretical volume of oxygen

$\text{V}_{\text{O}_{2}}= \text{4 L HCl} \times \dfrac{\text{1 L O}_{2}}{\text{4 L HCl}} = \text{1 L O}_{2}}$

3. Add 35% excess

$\text{V}_{\text{O}_{2}}= \text{1 L O}_{2}} \times 1.35 = \text{1.35 L O}_{2}}$

4. Calculate the theoretical volume of nitrogen

$\text{V}_{\text{N}_{2}} = \text{1.35 L O}_{2}} \times \dfrac{\text{79 L N}_{2}}{\text{21 L O}_{2}}} = \text{5.08 L N}_{2}}$

4. Calculate volumes of reactant used up

Only 85 % of the HCl is converted.

We can summarize the volumes in an ICE table

4HCl + O₂ + N₂ → 2Cl₂ + 2H₂O

I/L: 4 1.35 5.08 0 0

C/L: -0.85(4) -0.85(1) 0 +0.85(2) +0.85(2)

E/L: 0.60 0.50 5.08 1.70 1.70

5. Calculate the mole fractions of each gas in the product stream

Total volume = (0.60 + 0.50 + 5.08 + 1.70 + 1.70) L = 9.58 L

$\chi = \dfrac{\text{V}_{\text{component}}}{\text{V}_\text{total}} = \dfrac{\text{ V}_{\text{component}}}{\text{9.58}} = \text{0.1044V}_{\text{component}}\\\\\chi_{\text{HCl}} = 0.1044\times 0.60 = 0.063\\\\\chi_{\text{O}_{2}} = 0.1044\times 0.50 = 0.052\\\\\chi_{\text{N}_{2}} = 0.1044\times 5.08 = 0.530\\\\\chi_{\text{Cl}_{2}} = 0.1044\times 1.70 = 0.177\\\\\chi_{\text{H$_{2}${O}}} = 0.1044\times 1.70 = 0.177\\\\$

How many pounds of manganese are in 1.261 tons of Mn2O3?

Alina [70]

Answer:

2000pound

Explanation:

Manganese metal is produced from the manganese(III) oxide, Mn2O3, which is found in manganite, a manganese ore. The manganese is reduced from its +3 oxidation state in Mn2O3 to the zero oxidation state of the uncharged metal by reacting the Mn2O3 with a reducing agent such as aluminum or carbon. How many pounds of manganese are in 1.261 tons of Mn2O3? (1 ton = 2000 pounds)

About 40 different substances called organophosphorus compounds are registered in the United States as insecticides. They are considered less damaging to the environment than some other insecticides because they breakdown relatively rapidly in the environment. The first of these organophosphorus insecticides to be produced was tetraethyl pyrophosphate, TEPP, which is 33.11% carbon, 6.95% hydrogen, 38.59% oxygen, and 21.35% phosphorus. It has a molecular mass of 290.190.
