5 0

Answer:

<u>Distance:</u> 9 km

<u>Displacement:</u> 3 km

Explanation:

Distance takes into account the entire path that, in this case, Preston walked, while displacement, considers only the difference between the initial and final point.

In the picture, the different paths represent as a whole the distance he covered (5+3+1), whereas, the start and final point represent displacement (3-0)

A vial containing radioactive selenium-75 has an activity of 3.0 mCi/mL. If 2.6 mCi are required for a leukemia test, how many m
oksian1 [2.3K]

Answer : The 866.66\mu L must be administered.

Solution :

As we are given that a vial containing radioactive selenium-75 has an activity of 3.0mCi/mL.

As, 3.0 mCi radioactive selenium-75 present in 1 ml

So, 2.6 mCi radioactive selenium-75 present in \frac{2.6mCi}{3.0mCi}\times 1ml=0.86666ml\times 1000=866.66\mu L

Conversion :

(1ml=1000\mu L)

Therefore, the 866.66\mu L must be administered.

What is the theoretical yield of Calcium if we begin with 12.6 grams of Aluminium?
AlladinOne [14]

The question is incomplete, here is the complete question:

The given chemical reaction is:

2Al+3Cu(NO_3)_2\rightarrow 3Cu+2Al(NO_3)_3

What is the theoretical yield of Calcium if we begin with 12.6 grams of Aluminium?

<u>Answer:</u> The theoretical yield of copper is 44.48 grams

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the number of moles, we use the equation:

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}     .....(1)

Given mass of aluminium = 12.6 g

Molar mass of aluminium = 27 g/mol

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

\text{Moles of aluminium}=\frac{12.6g}{27g/mol}=0.467mol

The given chemical equation follows:

2Al+3Cu(NO_3)_2\rightarrow 3Cu+2Al(NO_3)_3

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

2 moles of aluminium produces 3 moles of copper

So, 0.467 moles of aluminium will produce = \frac{3}{2}\times 0.467=0.7005mol of copper

Now, calculating the mass of copper  from equation 1, we get:

Molar mass of copper = 63.5 g/mol

Moles of copper = 0.7005 moles

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

0.7005mol=\frac{\text{Mass of copper}}{63.5g/mol}\\\\\text{Mass of copper}=(0.7005mol\times 63.5g/mol)=44.48g

Hence, the theoretical yield of copper is 44.48 grams
