Consider a U-tube whose arms are open to the atmosphere. Now water is poured into the U-tube from one arm, and light oil (???? =

790 kg/m3) from the other. One arm contains 70-cm-high water, while the other arm contains both fluids with an oil-to-water height ratio of 6. Determine the height of each fluid in that arm.

Answer:

Oil high= 73.14cm

Water high= 12.19cm

Explanation:

See the attached images.

The first important concept is that in an open tube at both ends the atmospheric pressure balances itself.

The pressure on both sides of the tube is the same in the equilibrium. The pressure of each fluid depends on its height and density.

What is the percent by mass of carbon in acetone, c 3 h 6 o?
Tatiana [17]
In the problem, we are tasked to solved for the amount of carbon (C) in the acetone having a molecular formula of C 3 H 6 O. We need to find first the molecular weight if Carbon (C), Hydrogen (H), Oxygen (O).

Molecular Weight:
C=12 g/mol
H=1 g/mol
O=16 g/mol

To calculate for the percent by mass of acetone, we assume 1 mol of acetone.
%C=( \frac{3(12 g/mol)}{3(12 g/mol)+6(1 g/mol)+16 g/mol} ) x 100%
%C=62.07%
Therefore, the percent by mass of carbon in acetone is 62.07%

The pressure of 5.00 L of gas increases from 1.50 atm to 1240 mmHg. What is the final volume of the gas, assuming constant tempe
Vsevolod [243]
(P1)(V1)=(P2)(V2)
(1.50)(5.00)=(1240/760)(V2)
(7.5)/(1240/760)=V2
V2=4.596774194 L

A sky rocket is launched with a force of 10 N and accelerates at 20 m/s squared what is the mass of this skyrocket
tia_tia [17]

Answer: 0.5 kg

Explanation:

Force of launched skyrocket = 10 N

Acceleration of skyrocket = 20 m/s squared (i.e 20m/s^2)

Mass of the skyrocket = ?

Recall that Force is the product of the mass of an object by the acceleration by which it moves.

i.e Force = Mass x Acceleration

10N = Mass x 20m/s^2

Mass = (10N/20m/s^2)

Mass = 0.5 kg

Thus, the mass of this skyrocket is 0.5 kilograms

Which of the following is an example of a safe laboratory procedure?
ollegr [7]
<span>A is the correct answer. Tying back long hair and loose clothing is important so they don’t dangle in flames or liquids that could dissolve or bleach them, for example. The other choices - consuming food and drink from lab wares, touching hot objects without gloves on and inhaling odors - are examples of very unsafe procedures. </span>
