How does the type of medium affect a sound wave? Give an Example

Chemistry

Answer:

Sound waves need to travel through a medium such as solids, liquids and gases. The sound waves move through each of these mediums by vibrating the molecules in the matter. The molecules in solids are packed very tightly. Liquids are not packed as tightly.Of the three mediums (gas, liquid, and solid) sound waves travel the slowest through gases, faster through liquids, and fastest through solids. Temperature also affects the speed of sound.Sound waves in air (and any fluid medium) are longitudinal waves because particles of the medium through which the sound is transported vibrate parallel to the direction that the sound wave moves. A vibrating string can create longitudinal waves as depicted in the animation below.

When the coffee is brewed according to directions, a pound of coffee beans yields 50 cups of coffee (4 cups = 1 qt). How many kg
Xelga [282]

1 pound of coffee is said to yield 50 cups of coffee

So we need to find the pounds of coffee beans required to produce 250 cups

so if 50 cups need 1 pound of coffee beans

therefore 250 cups need - 1/50 x 250 = 5 pounds of coffee beans

since we have to find the amount of coffee beans needed in kg, we have to convert pounds to kg

1 pound = 0.45 kg

So if 1 pound is equivalent to 0.45 kg

then 5 pounds are equivalent to - 0.45 kg/pound x 5 pounds = 2.25 kg

therefore 2.25 kg of coffee beans are required

What is the molarity of a solution containing 56 grams of solute in 959 ml of solution? (molar mass of solute = 26 g/mol)?
jolli1 [7]
26g --- 1 mol
56g --- X
X= 56/26 = 2,154 mol

959 ml = 959cm³ = 0,959dm³

C = n/V
C = 2,154/0,959
C = 2,246 mol/dm³
