Answer:

Of course, technician B is the smarter one!    

                           

Explanation:

Water molecules attract each other, and the oil molecules also stick together. That causes oil and water to form two separate layers.

Because water molecules are denser than oil, they sink to the bottom, leaving oil sitting on top of the water.

Now, many fuel systems are designed in such a way that the suction pipe is located at the base of the tank. Given the above, it is very easy to see why water to a great degree of probability will be drawn into the system when the fuel level is low.

Cheers!

KCl and KBr are both ionic solids. A mixture of KCl and KBr has a mass of 3.595 g. When this mixture is heated in the presence o
monitta

Answer:

The percentage (by mass) of KBr in the original mixture was 33.1%.

Explanation:

The mixture of KCl and KBr has a mass of 3.595g, thus the sum of the moles of KCl (<em>x</em>) multiplied by it molar mass (74.5g/mol) and the moles of KBr (<em>y</em>) multiplied by it molar mass (119g/mol) is the total mass of the mixture:

x.74.5g/mol + y.119g/mol = 3.595g

Also, after the conversion of KBr into KCl, the total mass of 3.129 g is only from KCl moles, hence

\frac{3.129g}{74.5g/mol} = 0.042 moles

But the 0.042 moles came from the originals KCl and KBr moles, thus

x + y = 0.042moles

Now it is possible to propose a system of equations:

x.74.5g/mol + y.119g/mol = 3.595g

x + y = 0.042moles

Solving the system of equations,

x=0.032moles\\y=0.010 moles

0.010 moles of KBr multiplied it molar mass is

0.010molesx119g/mol = 1.19g

Therefore, the percentage (by mass) of KBr in the original mixture was:

\frac{1.19g}{3.595g}x100% = 33.1%%

Which has a higher percentage of the diequatorial-substituted conformer compared with the diaxialsubstituted conformer: trans-1,
kherson [118]

Answer:

cis-1-tert-butyl-3-methylcyclohexane will have a higher percentage of the diequatorial-substituted conformer when compared with the diaxialsubstituted conformer.

Explanation:

The two compound contain or have high stability with the substituent group is at equatorial position but the tert-betyl group in cis-1-tert-butyl-3-methylcyclohexane is larger than the methyl group in trans-1,4-dimethylcyclohexane.

Thus, the equatorial position will be more favorable for the substituent group in the cis-1-tert-butyl-3-methylcyclohexane, therefore having higher percentage of the diequatorial substituted conformer compared with that of diaxial-substituted conformer.

Oksi-84 [34.3K]

Answer:

not 100% but i think its 1.57x10^20

Explanation:

5.25x10^-4g / 2.016g

2.60x10^-4 x 6.022x10^23= 1.56x10^20 molecules
