Answer is 3.306 Pa.

<em>Explanation:</em>

This is a simple unit conversion problem.

1 atm = 760 mmHg = 101325 Pa

Hence,

0.0248 mmHg = (101325 Pa / 760 mmHg) x 0.0248 mmHg

= 3.306 Pa

Pressure can be measured by using many units such as atm, Pa, torr, bar, cmHg, mmHg and so on.

The relationships among those units as follows

1 atm = 101325 Pa = 1.01325 bar = 760 torr, 760 mmHg = 76 cmHg

1. Some athletes have as little as 3.0% body fat. If such a person has a body mass of 65 kg, how many pounds of body fat does th

77julia77 [94]

1. 3.0% ----> 3.0 kg fat= 100 kg body weigh
also remember that 1 kg= 2.20 lbs

$65 kg \frac{3.0 kg}{100 kg} x \frac{2.20 lb}{1 kg} = 4.29 lbs$

2. 0.94 g/mL----> 0.94 grams= 1 mL
1 Liters= 1000 mL
1kg= 1000 grams

$3 Liters \frac{1000 mL}{1 L} x \frac{0.94 grams}{1 mL} x \frac{1 kg}{1000 g} x \frac{2.20 lbs}{1 kg} = 6.20 lbs$

What type(s) of intermolecular forces exist between two molecules of hexane? (BLB Ch. 11)

kati45 [8]

Answer:

induced dipole-dipole forces or London Dispersion forces / van der Waals forces.

Explanation:

Hexane is non-polar in nature. This is due to :

The bond in the molecule is C-H, which is non-polar in nature because the carbon and the hydrogen having very similar electronegativity values.

Hexane is also symmetric.

The intermolecular force acting in the molecule of the hexane are induced the dipole-dipole forces or London Dispersion forces / van der Waals forces.

If the half-life of a radioactive element is 4 days, how long will it take for three- fourths of a sample of the element to deca

Jlenok [28]

Answer:

$\boxed{\text{8 da}}$

Explanation:

The question will be easier to solve if we interpret it as, " How long will it take until one-fourth of a sample of the element remains,?"

The half-life of the element is the time it takes for half of it to decay.

After one half-life, half (50 %) of the original amount will remain.

After a second half-life, half of that amount (25 %) will remain, and so on.

We can construct a table as follows:

$\begin{array}{cccl}\textbf{No. of} & & \textbf{Fraction} & \\\textbf{half-lives} & \textbf{t/da} & \textbf{remaining} & \\1 & 4 & \dfrac{1}{2} & \\\\2 & 8 & \dfrac{1}{4}& \\\\3 & 12 & \dfrac{1}{8}& \\\end{array}$

$\text{We see that 8 da is two half-lives, and the fraction of the element remaining is $\frac{1}{4}$.}\\\text{It takes $\boxed{\textbf{8 da}}$ for three-fourths of the element to decay}$
