G.com what is the mass of a gold bar that is 7.379 × 10–4 m3 in volume

tiny-mole [99]

<span>7.379 * 10^(-4) is measured, hence prone to error, either human error or via measuring device. In this case,
100 cm = 1 m is written in stone and is unquestionable.
The density of the gold is 19.3 g/cm^3 and could be an approximation.
The approximation is good to at least one night.</span>

Write Qc for each of the following:(1) Gaseous sulfur tetrafluoride reacts with liquid water to produce gaseous sulfur dioxide a

snow_tiger [21]

Answer : The expression for reaction quotient will be :

(1) $Q_c=\frac{[SO_2][HF]^4}{[SF_4]}$

(2) $Q_c=\frac{[O_2]^2[Xe]}{[XeF_2]}$

Explanation :

Reaction quotient $(Q_c)$ : It is defined as the measurement of the relative amounts of products and reactants present during a reaction at a particular time.

(1) The given balanced chemical reaction is,

$SF_4(g)+2H_2O(l)\rightarrow SO_2(g)+4HF(g)$

In this expression, only gaseous or aqueous states are includes and pure liquid or solid states are omitted. So, the expression for reaction quotient will be :

$Q_c=\frac{[SO_2][HF]^4}{[SF_4]}$

(2) The given balanced chemical reaction is,

$2MoO_2(s)+XeF_2(g)\rightarrow 2MoF(l)+Xe(g)+2O_2(g)[/texIn this expression, only gaseous or aqueous states are includes and pure liquid or solid states are omitted. So, the expression for reaction quotient will be :[tex]Q_c=\frac{[O_2]^2[Xe]}{[XeF_2]}$

To determine the age of fairly recent fossils and organic artifacts, it is possible to analyze the amounts of the isotopes 14C a

dolphi86 [110]

Answer: The net change in the atoms is the conversion of a neutron to a proton, turning Carbon (6 protons) into Nitrogen (7 protons).

Explanation:

Carbon-14, generated from the atmosphere, has 6 protons and 8 neutrons. That's where the 14 comes from, called the mass number, is the sum of protons and neutrons (6+8=14).

Carbon-14 is radioactive and decays by beta decay. That means one of its neutrons spontaneously turns into a proton, an electron, and a neutrino, according to:

$^{14} C \rightarrow\ ^{14} N\ +\ e^- +\ neutrino$

After that, the atom has 7 protons and 7 neutrons, maintaining its mass number but changing its atomic number from 6 to 7, turning into Nitrogen.

Determine the mass of 9.2 x 10^18 molecules of dinitrogen tetroxide.

steposvetlana [31]

Answer: 1.4x10-3 g N2O4

Explanation: First convert molecules of N2O4 to moles using Avogadro's Number. Then convert moles to mass using the molar mass of N2O4.

9.2x10^18 molecules N2O4 x 1 mole N2O4 / 6.022x10²³ molecules N2O4

= 1.53x10-5 moles N2O4

1.53x10-5 moles N2O4 x 92 g N2O4/ 1 mole N2O4

= 1.4x10-3 g N2O4

wolverine [178]

The glow emitted by a substance exposed to external radiation is called 'fluorescence'. In fluorescence, a fluorophore is exposed to external radiation, absorbs the energy and emits a form of light or glow. The answer to this question is 'fluorescence'. I hope this helps.
