Answer:

  • <em><u>3.30 × 10⁶ kg</u></em>

Explanation:

The form of the pool may be approximated to a reactangular prism with height equal to the average depth of water.

<u>1) Dimensions:</u>

  • Length: 44.6 m
  • Wide: 27.6 m
  • Height: 8.80 ft

<u>2) Volume formula</u>

  • V = length × width × height

<u>3) Unit conversions</u>

Convert 8.80 ft to meters:

  • 1 ft = 0.3048 m ⇒ 1 = 0.3048 m/ft

  • 8.80 ft × 0.3048 m/ft = 2.68 m

<u>4) Volume calculation</u>

Substitute the numbers in the formula:

  • V = length × width × height = 44.6 m × 27.6 m × 2.68 m ≈ 3,298.97 m³ ≈ 3,300 m³ (it is rounded to three significant digits)

<u>5) Mass of water:</u>

  • Density = mass / volume ⇒ mass = density × mass
  • Density of water = 1,000 kg / m³
  • mass = 3,300 m³ × 1,000 kg / m³ = 3,300,000 kg

<em><u>6) Scientific notation</u></em>

Choose the correct number of significant figures:

  • Since the three given factors have 3 significant figures, the correct number of significant figures of the volume and the mass is 3.

The mass must be expressed as a power of ten. The mantissa contains only the significant digits, and the number before the decimal point can only have one digit 1 through 9.

  • 3,300,000 kg =  3.30 × 10⁶ kg

Can some help me do this we have a final tomorrow and i have now idea how to do it. Step by Step explanation and tips If you kno
Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

Answer:

87.27 grams

Explanation:

The mole ratio of nitrogen to hydrogen is 1:3; while that one of hydrogen to the products (ammonia) is 3:2

Thus if 3 moles of hydrogen gas produce 2 moles of ammonia gas

7.7 moles of hydrogen will produce:

(7.7moles×2)/3

77/15 moles

1 mole of ammonia gas has a mass of  14+3=17

since the mass of an atom of nitrogen is 14 while that of hydrogen atom is 1.

Therefore 77/15 moles will have a mass of

77/15 moles × 17=87.27 grams

What mass of carbon dioxide is produced from the complete combustion of 4.50×10−3 g of methane?
ivanzaharov [21]

CH₄ + 2O₂ → CO₂ + 2H₂O

From the equation, we know that methane and carbon dioxide have the same number of moles.

no. of moles = \frac{mass}{molar mass}

no. of moles of CO₂ produced = no. of moles of methane

= 4.5 × 10⁻³ ÷ (12 + 1×4)

= 2.8125 × 10⁻⁴

∴ mass of CO₂ = 2.8125 × 10⁻⁴ × (12 + 16×2)

= 12.375 × 10⁻³ g

How does the level of intermoleculars bonding between the particles in matter affect the state of matter the particles are takin
Lunna [17]

Explanation:

Intermolecular force s between particles in a matter holds particles of molecules together in substances.

  • The stronger the intermolecular forces the more solid a substance is.
  • The weakest intermolecular attraction are found in gases as they have negligible attractive forces in between their particles.
  • Solids are held together by very strong attractive forces.
  • Liquids have weak forces holding them in place and this allows for a little movement.
  • Gases are typically have very weak to negligible attractive forces.
