In case of accidental contact with chemicals, how long should the eyes be flushed at the eyewash station
FromTheMoon [43]

Answer:

See the answer below

Explanation:

<em>The duration of flushing the eyes at the eyewash station in case of accidental contact with chemicals depends of the nature of the chemical.</em>

If the chemical is known to be a <u>non-irritant or mild-irritant</u> one, a <u>5-minute </u>washing time is recommended as the first aid. before seeking the help of a physician,

For <u>moderate to severe irritant</u> chemicals, an immediate <u>15-20 minutes</u> washing period is recommended before seeking further medical help.

For <u>corrosive and strong alkalis</u> chemicals, <u>30 and 60 minutes</u> washing are recommended respectively before seeking the attention of a physician.

However, if the nature of the chemical is unknown,<u> a minimum of 20-minutes washing is generally recommended</u> as first aid before seeking immediate medical help.

Salt is poured from a container at 10 cm³ s-¹ and it formed a conical pile whose height at any time is 1/5 the radius of the abo
Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

Answer:

\displaystyle \frac{dh}{dt} = \frac{1}{10 \pi}

Explanation:

Volume of a cone:

  • \displaystyle V=\frac{1}{3} \pi r^2 h

We have \displaystyle \frac{dV}{dt} = \frac{10 \ cm^3}{sec} and we want to find \displaystyle \frac{dh}{dt} \Biggr | _{h\ =\ 6}= \ ? when the height is 2 cm.

We can see in our equation for the volume of a cone that we have three variables: V, r, and h.

Since we only have dV/dt and dh/dt, we can rewrite the equation in terms of h only.

We are given that the height of the cone is 1/5 the radius at any given time, 1/5r, so we can write this as r = 5h.

Plug this value for r into the volume formula:

  • \displaystyle V =\frac{1}{3} \pi (5h)^2 h  
  • \displaystyle V =\frac{1}{3} \pi \ 25h^3

Differentiate this equation with respect to time t.

  • \displaystyle \frac{dV}{dt}  =\frac{25}{3} \pi \ 3h^2 \ \frac{dh}{dt}
  • \displaystyle \frac{dV}{dt}  =25 \pi h^2 \ \frac{dh}{dt}

Plug known values into the equation and solve for dh/dt.

  • \displaystyle 10 = 25 \pi (2)^2  \ \frac{dh}{dt}
  • \displaystyle 10 = 100 \pi  \ \frac{dh}{dt}  

Divide both sides by 100π to solve for dh/dt.

  • \displaystyle \frac{10}{100 \pi} = \frac{dh}{dt}
  • \displaystyle \frac{dh}{dt} = \frac{1}{10 \pi}

The height of the cone is increasing at a rate of 1/10π cm per second.

Analysis of an athletes urine found the presence of a compound with a molar mass of 312 g/mol. How many moles of this compound a
rewona [7]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

= 5.79 × 10^19 molecules

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

The molar mass of the compound is 312 g/mol

Mass of the compound is 30.0 mg equivalent to 0.030 g (1 g = 1000 mg)

We are required to calculate the number of molecules present

We will use the following steps;

<h3>Step 1: Calculate the number of moles of the compound </h3>

Moles=\frac{mass}{molar mass}

Therefore;

Moles of the compound will be;

=\frac{0.030}{312g/mol}

      = 9.615 × 10⁻5 mole

<h3>Step 2: Calculate the number of molecules present </h3>

Using the Avogadro's constant, 6.022 × 10^23

1 mole of a compound contains 6.022 × 10^23  molecules

Therefore;

9.615 × 10⁻5 moles of the compound will have ;

= 9.615 × 10⁻5 moles × 6.022 × 10^23  molecules

= 5.79 × 10^19 molecules

Therefore the compound contains 5.79 × 10^19 molecules
