Morphine is a well known pain killer but is highly addictive. The lethal dose of morphine varies from person to person based on

their body weight and other factors but is somewhere near 70 mg. Calculate the number of millimoles of carbon atoms in 71.891 mg sample of morphine. Report your answer to the third decimal place.

Answer:

0.252 milimoles

Explanation:

To convert mass of a substance to moles it is necessary to use the molar mass of the substance.

The formula of morphine is C₁₇H₁₉NO₃, thus, its molar mass is:

C: 17*12.01g/mol = 204.17g/mol

H: 19*1.01g/mol = 19.19g/mol

N: 1*14g/mol = 14g/mol

O: 3*16g/mol = 48g/mol.

204.17 + 19.19 + 14 + 16 = <em>285.36g/mol</em>

Thus, moles of 71.891 mg = 0.071891g:

0.071891g × (1mol / 285.36g) = 2.5193x10⁻⁴ moles

As 1 mole = 1000 milimoles:

2.5193x10⁻⁴ moles = <em>0.252 milimoles</em>

Uranium-238 decays to Lead-206. Both Rock X and Rock Y initially had a ratio of 100%. Uranium-238 to 0% Lead-206. Today, Rock X
kati45 [8]

Answer:

Rock Y

Explanation:

The rock that is older shall be determined based on the number of half lives it has witnessed. A half life is simply the amount of time required for a sample to decay to half of its original mass.

Rock X

From 100% uranium, it decays to 50% uranium.  This means it went through just one half life.

Rock Y

From 100% uranium to 25% uranium

100 --> 50 (first half life)

50 --> 25 (second half life)

This means it wen through 2 half lives.

Rock Y is older than Rock X

Consider molecular, complete ionic, and net ionic equations.
8090 [49]

Explanation:

(a) The molecular equations shows the equation in which all the species of the reactants and the products are in molecules and the net charge is zero.

The complete ionic equations shows the equation in which all the species of the reactants and the products are in dissociated form and are represented as ions.

The net ionic equations shows the equation in which all the species of the reactants and the products are in dissociated form and do not show the spectator ions which are same in the reactants and the products.

(b) If there is no spectator ions in the reaction, then the complete and the net ionic equations would be identical.

Devise a way to separate sand from a mixture of charcoal, sand, sugar, and water
madreJ [45]

A mixture of charcoal, sand, sugar, and water is a heterogeneous mixture. Sugar can easily dissolve in water. Slightly heating the mixture will ensure all of the sugar is dissolved in the water. The mixture then can be filtered to separate out sugar solution from sand and charcoal. The mixture of sand and charcoal is washed several times with water and filtered so that no traces of sugar solution remain in the mixture. To the mixture containing sand and charcoal, water is added. Charcoal being lighter floats on the surface of water, whereas sand being heavy sinks to the bottom. The charcoal floating can be removed manually. After all the charcoal is removed, the mixture of sand and water is again filtered and the sand collected on filter paper is dried. Therefore, by using the above process sand can be separated out from a mixture of charcoal, sand, sugar, and water.
