Answer:

37.6 grams of pentane

Explanation:

The density given in the CRC of 0.626 g/cm³ will be used to calculate the mass of pentane requred since Density = m/v and m= D x V

Be careful in this kind of questions to check for the units. In this case one has to remember 1 mL equal 1 cm³.

m = 0.626 g/cm³  x 60.0 cm³  = 37.6 g pentane

Tema [17]

A law is statement about an observed concept. A theory involves the explanation of scientific concepts or principles. A hypothesis is the predicted explanation about some concepts that has to be tested in order to prove it to be right. An observation is the observing the results of a scientific experiment carried out to test an hypothesis.

Here the given statement 'A chemist mixes sodium with water and witnesses a violent reaction between the metal and water,' can be classified as an observation as it explains what the chemists observes as a result of his chemical experiment or test..

You need 455 ml of a 75% alcohol solution. on hand, you have a 25% alcohol mixture. you also have a 90% alcohol mixture. how muc
marishachu [46]
X ml - <span>25% alcohol mixture
y ml - </span><span>90% alcohol mixture

x+y = 455 

0.25x ml alcohol in </span>x ml of  25% alcohol mixture
0.9y ml alcohol in y ml of  90% alcohol mixture
0.75*455= 341.25 ml alcohol in 455 ml of  75% alcohol mixture

0.25x+0.9y=341.25 

System of equations:

x+y = 455 /*(-0.25) ------> -0.25x-0.25y = -0.25*455 
0.25x+0.9y=341.25

-0.25x-0.25y=-113.75
0.25x+0.9y=341.25    Add both equations

0.25x+0.9y-0.25x-0.25y=341.25-113.75
0.65y =227.5
y=227.5/0.65 = 350 ml  of  90% alcohol mixture

x+y=455
x+355=455
x=100 ml of  25% alcohol mixture
