Answer:

<h2>The answer is 3.16 mL</h2>

Explanation:

The volume of a substance when given the density and mass can be found by using the formula

volume =  \frac{mass}{density}

From the question

mass = 43 g

density = 13.6 g/mL

The volume is

volume =  \frac{43}{13.6}  \\   = 3.161764

We have the final answer as

<h3>3.16 mL</h3>

Hope this helps you

Analysis of the water content of a lake found in the desert showed that it contained 17.5 percent chloride ion, and has a densit
tankabanditka [31]

Answer:

The molarity is 6.0 M.

Explanation:

<em>The </em><em>concentration</em><em> of a solution is the amount of solute present in a given amount  of solvent, or a given amount of solution.</em>

In this problem, we are asked to convert percent by mass to molarity, which are two different concentration units.

<em>The </em><em>percent by mass </em><em>is the ratio of the mass of a solute to the mass of the solution, multiplied by 100 percent.</em> On the other hand, <em>molarity (M)</em><em> is defined as the number of moles of solute per liter of solution.</em>

If we have 17.15 percent chloride ion, that means that we have 17.15 grams of chloride ion in 100 grams of solution. The density provided is the density of the solution, so we calculate how many mL correspond to 100 grams of solution:

1.23 g ----------- 1 mL

100 g ------------ <u>x= 81.3 mL</u>

Therefore, 17.5 grams of chloride ion are contained in 81.3 mL. Now we need to convert these grams into moles.

The atomic mass of chlorine is 35.5 g/mol:

35.5 g --------------- 1 mol

17.5 g --------------- <u>x= 0. 49 mol</u>

This 0.49 moles are contained in 81.13 mL, the definition of molarity says that this moles are contained in a liter (or what is the same, 1000 mL):

81.3 mL --------------- 0.49 mol

1000 mL ------------- x= 6.0 M

The molarity of the chloride ion will be 6.0 M.

A speed time graph shows that a car moves at 20 m/s for 15s. The car's speed steadily decreases until it comes to a stop at 40s.

0s to 15s: constant speed/zero acceleration
15s to 40s: constant gradient, therefore constant deceleration

The enthalpy of fusion of solid n-butane is 4.66 kJ/mol. Calculate the energy required to melt 58.3 g of solid n-butane.
adelina 88 [10]

Answer : The energy required to melt 58.3 g of solid n-butane is, 4.66 kJ

Explanation :

First we have to calculate the moles of n-butane.

\text{Moles of n-butane}=\frac{\text{Mass of n-butane}}{\text{Molar mass of n-butane}}

Given:

Molar mass of n-butane = 58.12 g/mole

Mass of n-butane = 58.3 g

Now put all the given values in the above expression, we get:

\text{Moles of n-butane}=\frac{58.3g}{58.12g/mol}=1.00mol

Now we have to calculate the energy required.

Q=\frac{\Delta H}{n}

where,

Q = energy required

\Delta H = enthalpy of fusion of solid n-butane = 4.66 kJ/mol

n = moles = 1.00 mol

Now put all the given values in the above expression, we get:

Q=\frac{4.66kJ/mol}{1.00mol}=4.66kJ

Thus, the energy required to melt 58.3 g of solid n-butane is, 4.66 kJ

An unknown substance has a melting point of -77°C. Is this substance likely to be an ionic compound?
pentagon [3]

Answer:

No. it,s not possible.

Explanation:

Because you know that ionic compound is having large inter-molecular forces. -77C* is for a compound having v.very small inter-molecular forces.you must know that M.B is directly varing with inter-molecular forces.
