Dating uses the properties of atoms in rocks and other objects to find their ages.

Why can't air exist in space, but gas can????

MakcuM [25]

Answer:

Earth's gravity is strong enough to hold onto its atmosphere and keep it from drifting into space.

Identify the correct mole ratio for each substance. Sodium chloride (NaCl) Na:Cl = 1: Ammonium nitrate (NHNO) H:O = 4:

Norma-Jean [14]

Answer: The mole ratio of H : O in ammonium nitrate is 4 : 3.

Explanation:

We are given a compound named ammonium nitrate having formula $NH_4NO_3$

There are 3 elements in this compound which are nitrogen, hydrogen and oxygen.

To calculate the mole ratio, we write the ratio of their subscripts. For this compound, it is:

$N:H:O::2:4:3$

The mole ratio of H and O for this compound is 4 : 3.

A 48.0g sample of quartz, which has a specific heat capacity of 0.730·J·g−1°C−1, is dropped into an insulated container containi

Butoxors [25]

Answer:

The equilibrium temperature of the water is 26.7 °C

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Mass of the sample quartz = 48.0 grams

Specific heat capacity of the sample = 0.730 J/g°C

Initial temperature of the sample = 88.6°C

Mass of the water = 300.0 grams

Initial temperature = 25.0°C

Specific heat capacity of water = 4.184 J/g°C

Step 2: Calculate final temperature

Qlost = -Qgained

Qquartz = - Qwater

Q =m*c*ΔT

Q = m(quartz)*c(quartz)*ΔT(quartz) = -m(water) * c(water) * ΔT(water)

⇒ mass of the quartz = 48.0 grams

⇒ c(quartz) = the specific heat capacity of quartz = 0.730 J/g°C

⇒ ΔT(quartz) = The change of temperature of the sample = T2 -88.6 °C

⇒ mass of water = 300.0 grams

⇒c(water) = the specific heat capacity of water = 4.184 J/g°C

⇒ ΔT= (water) = the change in temperature of water = T2 - 25.0°C

48.0 * 0.730 * (T2-88.6) -300.0 * 4.184 *(T2 - 25.0)

35.04(T2-88.6) = -1255.2 (T2-25)

35.04T2 -3104.544 = -1255.2T2 + 31380

1290.24T2 = 34484.544

T2 = 26.7 °C

The equilibrium temperature of the water is 26.7 °C

Based on the information above, which statement provides evidence that a chemical reaction has occurred?

Vesna [10]

Answer: Atoms that make up reactants rearrange into new products

Explanation:

A chemical reaction is the process of breaking down the chemical bonds of the reacting substances which are commonly called as reactants and making new bonds to form new substances commonly called as products.

The products will contain the same atoms as there are in the reactants but the bonds will rearrange to form different substances.

Every chemical reaction is accompanied with absorption or release of energy.

Calculate the equilibrium constant k for the isomerization of glucose-1-phosphate to fructose-6-phosphate at 298 k. express your

k0ka [10]

We cannot solve this problem without using empirical data. These reactions have already been experimented by scientists. The standard Gibb's free energy, ΔG°, (occurring in standard temperature of 298 Kelvin) are already reported in various literature. These are the known ΔG° for the appropriate reactions.

glucose-1-phosphate⟶glucose-6-phosphate ΔG∘=−7.28 kJ/mol
fructose-6-phosphate⟶glucose-6-phosphate ΔG∘=−1.67 kJ/mol

Therefore, the reaction is a two-step process wherein glucose-6-phosphate is the intermediate product.

glucose-1-phosphate⟶glucose-6-phosphate⟶fructose-6-phosphate

In this case, you simply add the ΔG°. However, since we need the reverse of the second reaction to end up with the terminal product, fructose-6-phosphate, you'll have to take the opposite sign of ΔG°.

ΔG°,total = −7.28 kJ/mol + 1.67 kJ/mol = -5.61 kJ/mol

Then, the equation to relate ΔG° to the equilibrium constant K is

ΔG° = -RTlnK, where R is the gas constant equal to 0.008317 kJ/mol-K.
-5.61 kJ./mol = -(0.008317 kJ/mol-K)(298 K)(lnK)
lnK = 2.2635
K = e^2.2635
K = 9.62
