The Average Speed of the orbiting space shuttle is

Chemistry
1 answer:
maxonik [38]3 years ago
8 0

Explanation:

It is given that, the Average Speed of the orbiting space shuttle is  17500 miles/hour.

We need to convert the speed in kilometers/ second

We know that,

1 mile = 1.609 km

or

1 km = 0.621 miles

1 hour = 3600 seconds

17500\ \dfrac{\text{miles}}{\text{hour}}=17500\ \dfrac{\text{miles}}{\text{h}}\times \dfrac{1\ h}{3600\ s}\\\\=17500\times \dfrac{\text{miles}}{3600\ s}

Now cancel the miles in numerator.

17500\times \dfrac{\text{miles}}{3600\ s}=17500\times \dfrac{\text{miles}}{3600\ s}\times \dfrac{1.609\ km}{1\ \text{miles}}\\\\=17500\times \dfrac{1.609}{3600}\ km/s\\\\=7.82\ km/s

So, 17500 miles/hour is equal to 7.82 km/s.

How do you scale a recipe by changing the portion size
Elina [12.6K]

Answer:

You must change the size of each ingredient by the size of the product. Let's say my recipe calls for 1 bag of flower and 2 eggs. I want to double the amount of product that I make, so I must multiply each of my ingredients by 2. I would now use 2 bags of flower and 4 eggs.

1) What is the mass of 6.2 mol of K2CO3?
lorasvet [3.4K]

Answer:

\boxed {\boxed {\sf 856.8648 \ grams \ of \ K_2CO_3}}

Explanation:

To convert from moles to grams, we must find the molar mass.

1. Molar Mass

First, identify the elements in the compound. K₂CO₃ It has potassium, carbon, and oxygen. Find these elements and their masses on the Periodic Table.

  • K: 39.098 g/mol
  • C: 12.011 g/mol
  • O: 15.999 g/mol

Note the subscript of 2 after K and 3 after O. We must multiply oxygen's molar mass by 2, then oxygen's by 3, and add carbon.

  • 2(39.098 g/mol) + 3(15.999 g/mol) + 12.011 g/mol= 138.204 g/mol

2. Convert Moles to Grams

Use the molar mass as a fraction.

\frac {138.204 \ g \ K_2CO_3}{1 \ mol \ K_23CO_3}

Multiply by the given number of moles: 6.2

6.2 \ mol \ K_2CO_3 *\frac {138.204 \ g \ K_2CO_3}{1 \ mol \ K_23CO_3}

6.2  *\frac {138.204 \ g \ K_2CO_3}{1 }

6.2  * {138.204 \ g \ K_2CO_3}

856.8648 \ g \ K_2CO_3

There are <u>856.8648 grams</u> of potassium carbonate in 6.2 moles.

Can a combination reaction be a redox reaction ?
saul85 [17]

Answer:

Yes A redox reaction can be a combination reaction.

Two elements are mixed in a combination reaction to produce a single product.

Explanation:

Example: water formula

2H2 + O2 → 2H2O

Oxygen is reduced in this reaction when electrons are transferred from hydrogen to oxygen and hydrogen is also oxidized since oxygen from hydrogen accepts electrons. Oxygen is the oxidizing agent and hydrogen is the reducing agent.

2H2 + O2 → 2H2O

What are ionic bonds composed of?
Sonbull [250]

Answer:Ionic compounds are compounds composed of ions, charged particles that form when an atom (or group of atoms) gains or loses electrons. (A cation is a positively charged ion; an anion is a negatively charged ion.) Covalent or molecular compounds form when elements share electrons in a covalent bond to form molecules.
