Answer:

709 g

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Balanced equation

Normally, we would need a balanced chemical equation.

However, we can get by with a partial equation, as log as carbon atoms are balanced.

We know we will need an equation with masses and molar masses, so let’s <em>gather all the information</em> in one place.

M_r: 30.07 236.74

C₂H₆ + … ⟶ C₂Cl₆ + …

m/g: 90.0

(i) Calculate the moles of C₂H₆

n = 90.0 g C₂H₆ × (1 mol C₂H₆ /30.07 g C₂H₆)

= 2.993 mol C₂H₆

(ii) Calculate the moles of C₂Cl₆

The molar ratio is (1 mol C₂Cl₆/1 mol C₂H₆)

n = 2.993 mol C₂H₆ × (1 mol C₂Cl₆/1 mol C₂H₆)

= 2.993 mol C₂Cl₆

(iii) Calculate the mass of C₂Cl₆

m = 2.993 mol C₂Cl₆ × (236.74 g C₂Cl₆/1 mol C₂Cl₆)

m = 709 g C₂Cl₆

The reaction produces 709 g C₂Cl₆.

The frequency of an x-ray wave is 3.0 x 1012 MHz. Its wave speed is 3.0x 108 m/s. Calculate the wavelength of the x-ray wave bel

elena55 [62]

Answer:

λ = 1*10⁻¹⁰m

Explanation:

Frequency (f) = 3.0*10¹²MHz = 3.0*10¹⁸Hz

Speed (v) = 3.0*10⁸m/s

Speed (v) of a wave = frequency (f) * wavelength (λ)

V = fλ

Solve for λ,

λ = v / f

λ = 3.0*10⁸ / 3.0*10¹⁸

λ = 1*10⁻¹⁰m

λ = 0.

Convert 1000mg=__g 1L=__mL 160cm=__mm 1.4km=__m 109g=__kg 250m=__km 80cm=__m 75mL=__L 5.6m=__cm 6.5g=__mg 170.4m=__cm 564Dg=__g

Snowcat [4.5K]

Answer:

1000mg= 1g

1L= 1000 mL

160cm = 1600mm

1.4km= 1400m

109 g = 0.109kg

250m= 0.250 km

80cm= 0.8 m

75mL= 0.075L

5.6m= 560 cm

6.5g= 6500mg

170.4m= 17040 cm

564 Dg = 5640 g

58 dg = 5800 mg

600 L= 0.6 KL

0.0923Km= 92300 mm

Explanation:

1 mg = 1x10⁻³ g

1 g = 1000 mg

1 g = 10 dg

1 g = 1x10⁻³ kg

1 Dg = 10 g

1 dg = 100 mg

1 L = 1000 mL

1 L = 1x10⁻³ KL

1 mL = 1x10⁻³ L

1 km = 1000 m

1 km = 1x10⁶ mm

1 m = 1x10⁻³ km

1 cm = 1x10⁻² m

1 cm = 10 mm

If we start with 1.000 g of strontium-90, 0.805 g will remain after 9.00 yr. This means that the of strontium-90 is ________ yr.

lesantik [10]

The question is incomplete, here is the complete question.

If we start with 1.000 g of strontium-90, 0.805 g will remain after 9.00 yr. This means that the half-life of strontium-90 is ________ yr.

a. 28.8 b. 30.9 c. 35.4 d. 32.2

Answer : The half-life of strontium-90 is 28.8 years.

Explanation :

This is a type of radioactive decay and all radioactive decays follow first order kinetics.

First we have to calculate the rate constant.

Expression for rate law for first order kinetics is given by :

$k=\frac{2.303}{t}\log\frac{a}{a-x}$

where,

k = rate constant

t = time taken for decay process = 9.00 year

a = initial amount or moles of the reactant = 1.000 g

a - x = amount or moles left after decay process = 0.805 g

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$k=\frac{2.303}{9.00}\log\frac{1.00}{0.805}$

$k=0.0241\text{ year}^{-1}$

To calculate the half-life, we use the formula :

$k=\frac{0.693}{t_{1/2}}$

$0.0241\text{ year}^{-1}=\frac{0.693}{t_{1/2}}$

$t_{1/2}=28.8\text{ years}$

Therefore, the half-life of strontium-90 is 28.8 years.
