calculate the concentration in parts per million (ppm) of DDT if a sample size of 2000 g contained 0.050 g DDT

Chemistry
1 answer:
Firlakuza [10]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

= 25 ppm

Explanation:

  • PPM also refers to parts per million, it represents a low concentration of a solution. It represents 0.001 gram or a milligram in a 1000 mL, which equivalent to 1 mg per liter.

Given; a sample size of 2000 g contained 0.050 g DDT

It means, 2000 mL sample contained 50 mg DDT

Therefore in ppm we get;

= 50 mg/ 2 L

= 25 mg/L

<u>= 25 ppm</u>

Which of the following is an example of oxidation? A. Charcoal is placed on a grill and lighting fluid poured over it. B. A car
Vikentia [17]

Answer:

<u>The Answer is (B)  A car get rusty over the course of few years</u>Explanation:

<u>Explanation:</u>

  • <u>Oxidation </u>refers to the process of loss of electrons by a molecule,atom or ion during a chemical reaction.The process which is just the opposite of oxidation is reduction,it occurs when their is gain of electrons .
  • <u>When iron reacts with the oxygen it forms a chemical know as Rust.In this case iron has lost some electrons and the oxygen has gained some electrons</u>

2 characteristics and 2 differences for spiral and elliptical galaxies
Lerok [7]
Spiral galaxies have three main components: a bulge, disk, and halo (see right). The bulge is a spherical structure found in the center of the galaxy. This feature mostly contains older stars. The disk is made up of dust, gas, and younger stars. The disk forms arm structures. Our Sun is located in an arm of our galaxy, the Milky Way. The halo of a galaxy is a loose, spherical structure located around the bulge and some of the disk. The halo contains old clusters of stars, known as globular clusters<span>.

Elliptical galaxies are shaped like a spheriod, or elongated sphere. In the sky, where we can only see two of their three dimensions, these galaxies look like elliptical, or oval, shaped disks. The light is smooth, with the surface brightness decreasing as you go farther out from the center. Elliptical galaxies are given a classification that corresponds to their elongation from a perfect circle, otherwise known as their ellipticity. The larger the number, the more elliptical the galaxy is. So, for example a galaxy of classification of E0 appears to be perfectly circular, while a classification of E7 is very flattened. The elliptical scale varies from E0 to E7. Elliptical galaxies have no particular axis of rotation.

Calculate the amount of heat gained when one 250 gram bottle is heated from 25oC to 30oC. The specific heat of water is 4.18 J/g
Fed [463]

Answer:

5230J

Explanation:

Mass (m) = 250g

Initial temperature (T1) = 25°C

Final temperature (T2) = 30°C

Specific heat capacity (c) = 4.184J/g°C

Heat energy (Q) = ?

Heat energy (Q) = Mc∇T

Q = heat energy

M = mass of the substance

C = specific heat capacity

∇T = change in temperature = T2 - T1

Q = 250 × 4.184 × (30 - 25)

Q = 1046 ×5

Q = 5230J

The heat energy required to raise the temperature of 250g of water from 25°C to 30°C is 5230J
