Be sure to answer all parts. One gallon of gasoline in an automobiles engine produces on average 9.50 kg of carbon dioxide, whic

h is a greenhouse gas; that is, it promotes the warming of Earth's atmosphere. Calculate the annual production of carbon dioxide in kilograms if there are exactly 40.0 million cars in the United States and each car covers a distance of 7930 mi at a consumption rate of 23.6 miles per gallon. Enter your answer in scientific notation.

Answer:

The answer is below

Explanation:

one gallon of gasoline produces 9.50 kg of carbon.

The total number of cars = 40 million

Distance covered by each car = 7930 miles

Consumption rate of the cars per miles traveled is 23.6 miles per gallon.

Hence the annual gasoline consumption by all the cars in the United States of America = (total number of cars × Distance covered by each car) ÷ Consumption rate of the cars per miles

annual gasoline consumption by all the cars = (40000000 × 7930 miles) ÷ 23.6 miles/gallon = `1.344067797 × 10¹⁰ gallons

1.344067797 × 10¹⁰ gallons = 1.344067797*10^{10}\  gallons *\frac{9.50\ kg}{1\ gallon} =1.276864407*10^{11}\ kg\ of \ carbon\ dioxide

Answer:

Hope this helps :)

Explanation:

1. A physical property is a characteristic of matter that is not associated with a change in its chemical composition.

2. Matter is everything around you. Atoms and compounds are all made of very small parts of matter.

3. Solid, liquid and, gas

4. False

5. Our weight on moon is less than it would be on Earth due to a difference of the strength of gravity on the moon.

6. Physical changes only change the appearance of a substance, not its chemical composition. Chemical changes cause a substance to change into an entirely substance with a new chemical formula. Chemical changes are also known as chemical reactions.

ELEN [110]

Answer:

Reactants break bonds with consuming the energy and form the new bonds .

Explanation:

As the two molecules interacted with each other , the elements reshuffled the bonds and formed the new ones with shifting the energy and converting it into new products .

25 mL of 0.10 M aqueous acetic acid is titrated with 0.10 M NaOH(aq). What is the pH after 30 mL of NaOH have been added?
weeeeeb [17]

Answer:

pH = 11.95≈12

Explanation:

Remember  the reaction among aqueous acetic acid (CH_3COOH) and aqueous sodium hydroxide (NaOH)

CH_3COOH + NaOH ->  CH_3COONa + H_2O

First step. Need to know how much moles of the substances are present

0.1 \frac{mol NaOH}{L} * 0.030 L = 0.003 mol NaOH[tex]0.1 \frac{mol CH_3COOH}{L} * 0.025 L= 0.0025 mol CH_3COOHSecond step. Know wich substance is in excess.0.0025 mol CH_3COOH * [tex]1 mol NaOH/ 1 mol CH_3COOH = 0.0025 mol NaOH

0.003 mol NaOH * 1 mol CH_3COOH/ 1 mol NaOH = 0.003 mol CH_3COOH[/tex]

NaOH is in excess. Now, how much?

0.003 mole NaOH - 0.0025 mole NaOH = 0.0005 mole NaOH

Then, that amount in excess would be responsable for the pH.

Third step. Know the pH

Remember that pH= -log[H+]

According to the dissociation of water equilibrium

Kw=[H+]*[OH-]= 10^(-14)

The dissociation of NaOH is

NaOH -> Na^{+} + OH^{-}

Now, concentration of OH^{-}[/tex] would be given for the excess of NaOH.

[OH-]= 0.0005 mole / 0.055 L = 0.00909 M

Careful: we have to use the total volumen

Les us to calculate pH

pH= -log [H+]\\pH= -log \frac{K_w}{[OH-]} \\pH= 11.95
