A small hole in the wing of a space shuttle requires a 15.9 cm2 patch.

Chemistry
1 answer:
Rzqust [24]3 years ago
8 0

The patch area in square kilometers is 1.59*10⁻⁹ km₂

Why?

This is an unit conversion problem. We have to convert from cm² to km². We can do that by knowing that there are 100 cm in 1 m, and 1000 m in 1 km, so 100000 cm=1km. Knowing that we can apply the following conversion factor:

15.9 cm^{2} * (\frac{1 km}{100000 cm} )^{2}=0.00000000159 km^{2}

Now to convert this value to scientific notation, we have to move the decimal point to the right until we get a whole number, and the exponent of the number 10 is going to be the number of spaces we moved to the right (negative), so the final answer is:

0.00000000159 km^{2}=1.59*10^{-9} km^{2}

Have a nice day!

The Lucas test has _______ results based on the type of alcohol present because the reaction involves a _________, which is ____
Olin [163]

Answer:

1) positive

2) carbocation

3) most stable

4) faster

Explanation:

A common test for the presence of alcohols can be achieved using the Lucas reagent. Lucas reagent is a mixture of concentrated hydrochloric acid and zinc chloride.

The reaction of Lucas reagent reacts with alcohols leading to the formation of an alkyl chloride. Since the reaction proceeds via a carbocation mechanism, tertiary alcohols give an immediate reaction. Once a tertiary alcohol is mixed with Lucas reagent, the solution turns cloudy almost immediately indicating an instant positive reaction.

Secondary alcohols may turn cloudy within five minutes of mixing the solutions. Primary alcohols do not significantly react with Lucas reagent obviously because they do not form stable carbocations.

Therefore we can use the Lucas reagent to distinguish between primary, secondary and tertiary alcohols.

When 40.5 g of Al and 212.7 g of Cl2 combine in the reaction: 2 Al (s) + 3 Cl2 (g) --> 2 AlCl3 (s) c) How many moles of the e
sineoko [7]

Answer:

The answer to your question is 1.49 mol of Cl₂  

Explanation:

Data

mass of Al = 40.5 g

mass of Cl₂ = 212.7 g

moles of excess reactant = ?

- Balanced chemical reaction

                2 Al(s)  +  3Cl₂(g)  ⇒   2AlCl₃

Process

a) Calculate the molar mass of the reactants  

molar mass of Al = 2 x 26.98 = 53.96 g

molar mass of Cl₂ = 6 x 35.45 = 212.7 g

b) Calculate the theoretical proportion  Al/Cl₂ = 53.96/212.7 = 0.254

   Calculate the experimental proportion Al/Cl₂ = 40.5/212.7 = 0.19

As the experimental proportion is lower than the theoretical proportion we conclude that the limiting reactant is Aluminum.

c) Calculate the grams of excess reactant

                    53.96 g of Al ------------------ 212.7 g of Cl₂

                     40.5 g of Al -------------------  x

                      x = (40.5 x 212.7) / 53.96

                      x = 8614.35 / 53.96

                      x = 159.64 g of Cl₂

Excess Cl₂ = 212.7 - 159.64

                  = 53.057 g

d) Calculate the moles of Cl

                       35.45 g of Cl ----------------- 1 mol

                       53.057 g of Cl ---------------  x

                        x = (53.057 x 1)/35.45

                       x = 1.49 mol of Cl₂

How many grams of iron oxide, Fe2O3 will be produced if 165 g of O2 gas is supplied? (follow the same steps as mol to mol, only
forsale [732]

Answer:

m_{Fe_2O_3}=549gFe_2O_3

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, according to the given chemical reaction for this problem about stoichiometry:

4Fe+3O_2\rightarrow 2Fe_2O_3

Whereas there is a 3:2 mole ratio of oxygen (molar mass = 32.0 g/mol) to iron (III) oxide (molar mass = 159.69 g/mol) and therefore, the correct stoichiometric setup is:

m_{Fe_2O_3}=165gO_2*\frac{1molO_2}{32.00gO_2}*\frac{2molFe_2O_3}{3molO_2} *\frac{159.69gFe_2O_3}{1molFe_2O_3}  \\\\m_{Fe_2O_3}=549gFe_2O_3

Regards!
