Answer : Option B) 360 g/mol

Explanation : 
The antibacterial agent Penicillin N contains 8.92% of sulfur by mass. So we have to calculate the molar mass of penicillin N will be as 

i) 256 X 0.0892 = 22.83 g/mol this cannot be the answer as it doesn't shows any sign of sulfur being present even in 1 mole.

ii) 360 X 0.0892 = 32.112 g/mol This is the closest to the molar mass of sulfur which is 32.06 g/mol; this means it contains 1 mole of sulfur.

iii) 390 X 0.0892 = 34.78 g/mol this also fails to prove the answer as correct.

iv) 743 X 0.0892 = 66.27 g/mol This is not even falling in the range of sulfur mole.

Hence we can confirm that the answer is Option B

A heat energy of 645 J is applied to a sample of glass with a mass of 28.4 g. Its temperature increases from –11.6 ∞C to 15.5 ∞C
Anika [276]
The heat that is required to raise the temperature of an object is calculated through the equation,
                        heat = mass x specific heat x (T2 - T1)
Specific heat is therefore calculated through the equation below,
                                specific heat = heat / (mass x (T2 - T1))
Substituting,
                                specific heat = 645 J / ((28.4 g)(15.5 - - 11.6))
The value of specific heat from above equation is 0.838 J/g°C.

A mixture of 18 % 18% disinfectant solution is to be made from 16 % 16% and 23 % 23% disinfectant solutions. How much of each so
jeka94

Answer: 20 gallons of 16% and 8 gallons of 23% solution is usedfor 28 gallons of the 18 % solution.

Explanation:

According to the dilution law,

C_1V_1+C_2V_2=C_3V_3

where,

C_1 = concentration of ist disinfectant solution = 16 %

V_1 = volume of pure acid solution = x gallons

C_2 = concentration of another disinfectant solution= 23%

V_2 = volume of another acid solution= (28-x) gallons

C_3 = concentration of resulting disinfectant solution = 18 %

V_1 = volume of resulting acid solution = 28 gallons

16\times x+23\times (28-x)=18\times 28

x=20galllons

(28-x) = (28-20) = 8 gallons

Thus 20 gallons of 16% and 8 gallons of 23% solution is usedfor 28 gallons of the 18 % solution.
