Answer:

240 seconds

Explanation:

Data Given:

Distance Radio travel to earth = 7.19 ×10⁷ km

Speed of this radio signal = 3.00 ×10⁸ m/s

Solution:

First convert Km to m

1 km = 1000 m

7.19 ×10⁷ km = 7.19 ×10⁷ x 1000 = 7.19 × 10¹⁰m

Formula used to calculate time

            Speed (S) = distance (d) / time (t)

rearrange above equation for time

            time (t) = distance (d) / Speed (S) . . . . . . . . .(1)

Put values in equation 1

            time (t) = 7.19 × 10¹⁰/ 3.00 ×10⁸ m/s

            time (t) = 240 s

So 240 seconds it take for the signal to reach the earth

A chemist must dilute 34.3mL of 1.72mM aqueous calcium sulfate solution until the concentration falls to 1.00mM. He'll do this b
EastWind [94]

Answer:

58.9mL

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Initial volume  = 34.3mL    = 0.0343dm³

Initial concentration  = 1.72mM   = 1.72 x 10⁻³moldm⁻³

Final concentration  = 1.00mM = 1 x 10⁻³ moldm⁻³

Unknown:

Final volume  =?

Solution:

Often times, the concentration of a standard solution may have to be diluted to a lower one by adding distilled water. To find the find the final volume, we must recognize that the number of moles of the substance in initial and final solutions are the same.

   Therefore;

              C₁V₁  =  C₂V₂

where C and V are concentration and 1 and 2 are initial and final states.

        now input the variables;

                      1.72 x 10⁻³ x  0.0343 = 1 x 10⁻³  x V₂

                        V₂ = 0.0589dm³ = 58.9mL
