Answer:

323.99 mg

Explanation:

We need to find the mass of the aspirin tablet that contains 5.0 grains of aspirin.

1 pound = 7000 grains

$1\ \text{grain}=\dfrac{1}{7000}\ \text{pounds}$

$5\ \text{grain}=\dfrac{1}{7000}\times 5\ \text{pounds}\\\\=\dfrac{1}{1400}\ \text{pounds}$

We know that, 1 pound = 453.592 grams

Also, 1 pound = 453592 mg

$\dfrac{1}{1400}\ \text{pounds}=\dfrac{1}{1400}\times 453592\ mg\\\\=323.99\ \text{mg}$

Hence, 4 grains of aspirin contains 323.99 mg.

n = 1.5atm (15L) / .0821 (280k) = .98 mol NaCl

NaCl = 22.99g Na + 35.45g Cl = 58.44g NaCl

58.44g NaCl x .98 mol NaCl = 57.27g NaCl

An 8 oz. bottle of energy drink contains 6.0 g of protein, 2.0 g of fat, and 16.3 g of carbohydrate. The fuel value of this ener

valina [46]

Answer: The correct option is d) 460 kJ

Explanation:

We are given:

Content of fat in energy drink = 2.0 g

Content of protein in energy drink = 6.0 g

Content of carbohydrate in energy drink = 16.3 g

Also,

The fuel value of fat = 38 kJ/g

The fuel value of protein = 17 kJ/g

The fuel value of carbohydrate = 17 kJ/g

So, the fuel value of the energy drink will be:

Total fuel value = $(2.0g\times 38 kJ/g)+(6.0g\times 17 kJ/g)+(16.3g\times 17 kJ/g)$

Total fuel value = $[76+102+277]=460kJ$

Hence, the correct option is d) 460 kJ

The chief advantage of the metric system over other system of measurement is that it

kolbaska11 [484]

Answer:

The metric system goes by powers of ten, so it's very easy to measure. That would be the main advantage, measurements of ten. We can also say it's the most used measurement around the world, so all scientists have little to no conversion, but the main answer is probably the first one :)

How many grams of ammonia gas can be formed from 54.1 g of hydrogen gas

Murrr4er [49]

Answer:

304.19 g

Explanation:

M(H2) = 2*1 = 2 g/mol

54.1 g H2 * 1 mol H2/2gH2 = 27.05 mol H2

3H2 + N2 ------> 2NH3

from reaction 3 mol 2 mol

given 27.05 mol x mol

x = 27.05*2/3 = 18.03 mol NH3

M(NH3) = 14 +3*1 = 17 g/mol

18.03 mol NH3 * 17 g NH3/ 1 mol NH3 ≈ 307 g

Closeet answer is 304.19 g.
