She needs to know the distance from LA to SF.

Call that distance x. Then you can calculate the cost from:

# of gallons consumed: x miles / 38 miles/ gallon = (x/38) gallons

After that,

cost = # gallons * cost per gallon = (x/38) gallons * 4 $/gallon = 4x/38 $

The atmosphere is held together by
IgorC [24]

Answer:

Our atmosphere is a mixture of gases that surround Earth. It is kept in place by the pull of Earth's gravity. If Earth was a much smaller planet, like Mercury or Pluto, its gravity would be to weak to hold a large atmosphere.

Hydrofluoric acid solutions cannot be stored in glass containers because HF reacts readily with silica dioxide in glass to produ
satela [25.4K]
A) Limiting reactant

You need the molar ratios (from the balanced chemical equation) and the molar masses of each compound (from the atomic masses)

a) Molar ratios:

6 mol HF : 1 mol SiO2 : 1 mol H2SiF6

2) Molar masses:

Atomic masses:
H: 1 g/mol
F: 19 g/mol
Si: 28 g/mol
O: 16g/mol

=>
HF:1g/mol + 19 g/mol = 20 g/mol
SiO2: 28g/mol + 2*16g/mol = 60 g/mol
H2SiF6: 2*1g/mol + 28g/mol + 6*19g/mol = 144g/mol

3) convert data in grams to moles

21.0 g SiO2 / 60 g/mol = 0.35 mol SiO2

70.5 g HF /  20 g/mol = 3.525 mol HF

4) Use the theorical ratios to deduce which is in excess and which is the limiting reactant.

6 mol HF / 1mol SiO2   < 3.525 mol HF / 0.35 mol SiO2 ≈ 10

=> There is more HF than the needed to react with 0.35mol of SiO2 =>

SiO2 is the limiting reactant (HF is in excess)

b) Mass of excess reactant.

1) Calculate how many grams reacted, which requires to calculate first the number of moles that reacted

0.35 mol SiO2 * 6 mol HF / 1 mol SiO2 = 2.1 mol of HF

2.1 mol HF * 20 g/mol = 42 gram of HF

2) Subtract the quantity that reacted from the original quantity:

70.5 g - 42 g = 28.5 g of HF in excess

c) Theoretical yield of H2SiF6

1 mol of SiO2 ; 1 mol of H2SiF6 => 0.35 mol SiO2 : 0.35 mol H2SiF6

Convert those moles to grams: 0.35 mol * 144 g/mol = 50.4 grams

d) % yield

% yield = actual yield / theoretical yield * 100 = 45.8 / 50.4 * 100 = 90.87%

An isomer with a branched structure will require:
Contact [7]
The  branched  structure  isomer  will require   less  energy  to  melt  than the straight  chain  isomer

    explanation
Branched  structure  isomer    has  weak  intermolecular  forces  of attraction  as  compared  to  straight  chain  isomers.  In addition the  branched  isomer  has  a  low boiling point as  compared to  straight chain isomers. Since   boiling require  the of  the  intermolecular  forces tend to have  lower  boiling  point   than straight chain

If equal masses of aluminum and copper are heated with same amount of heat, which would reach the higher temperature? Explain yo
Anestetic [448]

Answer:

copper will reach to higher temperature first.

Explanation:

Specific heat capacity:

It is the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of one gram of substance by one degree.

Formula:

Q = m.c. ΔT

Q = amount of heat absorbed or released

m = mass of given substance

c = specific heat capacity of substance

ΔT = change in temperature

The substances with higher value of specific heat capacity require more heat to raise the temperature by one degree as compared the substances having low value of specific heat capacity.For example,

The specific heat capacity of copper is 0.386 j/g. K and for aluminium is 0.900 j/g.K. So, aluminium take a time to increase its temperature by one degree by absorbing more heat while copper will heat up faster by absorbing less amount of heat.

Consider that both copper and aluminium have same mass of 5g and change in temperature is 15 K. Thus amount of heat thy absorbed to raise the temperature is,

For copper:

Q = m.c. ΔT

Q = 5 g× 0.386 j/g K × 15 K

Q = 28.95 j

For aluminium:

Q = m.c. ΔT

Q = 5 g× 0.900 j/g K × 15 K

Q = 67.5 j

we can observe that aluminium require more heat which is 67.5 j to increase its temperature.  So it will reach to higher temperature later as compared to copper.
