5.5L= 5500ml
5500*1.06g/ml=5830g
5803g*0.035274oz/g=205.6oz

Answer : The mass of human blood in grams and ounce are 5830 grams and 205.647 ounce.

Explanation :

Density : It is defined as the mass contained per unit volume.

Formula used for density :

Density=\frac{Mass}{Volume}

Given :

Density of human blood = 1.06 g/mL

Volume of human blood = 5.5 L = 5500 mL

conversion used : 1 L = 1000 mL

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get the mass of human blood.

1.06g/mL=\frac{Mass}{5500mL}

Mass=5830g

The mass of human blood in grams = 5830 grams

Conversion used :

1\text{ ounce}=28.3495g\\\\1g=\frac{1}{28.3495}\text{ ounce}

As, 1g=\frac{1}{28.3495}\text{ ounce}

So, 5830g=\frac{5830g}{1g}\times \frac{1}{28.3495}\text{ ounce}=205.647\text{ ounce}

Therefore, the mass of human blood in grams and ounce are 5830 grams and 205.647 ounce.

Which Of the following, the best explanation for the fact that most gases are easily compressed is that the molecules in a gas a
Otrada [13]

Answer: A. are relatively far apart

Explanation:

Compressbility is the ability of compound to reduce in size when pressure is applied.

Gaseous state is a state in which the particles are loosely arranged and have a lot of space between them. Thus molecules can be easily compressed.

They have highest kinetic energy. This state has indefinite volume as well as shape.  The molecules in the gaseous state move faster with an increase in temperature as the kinetic energy increases with increase in temperature.

Thus most gases are easily compressed is that the molecules in a gas are in constant motion are relatively far apart.

Ammonia, NH3NH3 , can react with oxygen to form nitrogen gas and water. 4NH3(aq)+3O2(g)⟶2N2(g)+6H2O(l) 4NH3(aq)+3O2(g)⟶2N2(g)+6H
solmaris [256]

Answer:

36.37% is the percent yield of the reaction.

Explanation:

4NH_3(aq)+3O_2(g)\rightarrow 2N_2(g)+6H_2O(l)

1)0.650 L nitrogen gas  , at 295 K and 1.01 bar.

Let the moles of nitrogen gas be n.

Pressure of the gas ,P=  1.01 bar = 0.9967 atm (1 bar = 0.9869 atm)

Temperature of the gas = T =  295 K

Volume of the gas = V = 0.650 L

Using an ideal gas equation:

PV=nRT

n=\frac{PV}{RT}=\frac{0.9967 atm\times 0.650 L}{0.0821 atm L/mol K\times 295 K}=0.0267 mol

2) Moles of ammonia gas=\frac{2.53 g}{17 g/mol}=0.1488 mol

Moles of oxygen gas =\frac{3.53 g}{32 g/mol}=0.1101 mol

According to reaction ,3 mol of oxygen reacts with 4 mol of ammonia.

Then,0.1101 mol of oxygen will react with:

\frac{4}{3}\times 0.1101 mol=0.1468 mol of ammonia.

Hence, oxygen gas is in limiting amount and act as limiting reagent.

3) Theoretical yield of nitrogen gas :

According to reaction, 3 mol of oxygen gas gives 2 moles of nitrogen gas.

Then 0.1101 mol of oxygen will give:

\frac{2}{3}\times 0.1101 mol=0.0734 mol of nitrogen.

Theoretical yield of nitrogen gas = 0.0734 mol

Experimental yield of nitrogen as calculated in part (1) = 0.0267 mol

Percentage yield:

\frac{\text{Experiential yield}}{\text{Theoretical yield}}\times 100

Percentage yield of the reaction:

\frac{ 0.0267 mol}{0.0734 mol}\times 100=36.37\%

36.37% is the percent yield of the reaction.

nadezda [96]

Answer:

Hypothesis

Explanation:

The following steps are applicable when we wish to prove a specific fact:

  • a hypothesis is made; this is a statement that we provide after some observations and we wish to either prove or deny it;
  • multiple experiments are carried out in order to gather significantly substantial amount of data that can be then further analyzed and any tendencies can be noticed;
  • based on the data gathered, conclusions are made: we either prove or deny the hypothesis. If hypothesis is proved, it may become a theory over long time.

In the context of this problem, we're at the first step where we make a hypothesis.

Examine the nuclear reaction: 1 1 H+ 1 0 n -> 2 1 H.
Lera25 [3.4K]
1) Conversion of an isotope one chemical element or an isotope into another chemical element is called as nuclear transmutation.
<span>
2) In a nuclear transmutation reactions</span> can be achieved either due to radioactive decay or  due to nuclear reactions. 

3) In this technique, it is possible to convert a stable element into radioactive atom by bombarding in with high speed particles. The initial stable nuclei is referred as parent nuclei, the fast moving particle is referred as projectile while new element which is formed is called as daughter element.

4) In the present reaction:
                                        <span>1 1 H+ 1 0 n -> 2 1 H
1 1H is a parent nuclei which is bombarded with the fast moving projectile
(1 0 n) to generate a new daughter nuclei (2 1H). </span>

How are stars and comets different?
ehidna [41]
The answer is letter C.

Because we classify something as a star when it is: a large ball of gas that undergoes nuclear fusion. Given this definition, a comet is not a star. A comet is a ball of ice and dirt hurtling through space, it shines only because it reflects ligh
