Her discovery of radium and polonium.

She was the first woman to win a nobel prize and a second one as well!

Marie Curie was the first women to be appointed as the director of the physics lab at Sorbonne.

She was also the first woman to become a professor at the University of Paris.

She helped make radiology units which were again portable and those assisted the field surgeons during the war.

Hope this helps :))

Butanol is composed of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen. If 1.0 mol of butanol contains 6.0 x 1024 atoms of hydrogen, what is the su

yanalaym [24]

Answer:

Option B. 10

Explanation:

If 1 mol of butanol contains 6×10²⁴ atoms of H, let's calculate the amount of H.

(number of atoms / NA)

6.02 x 10²³ atoms ___ 1 mol

6×10²⁴ atoms will occupy (6×10²⁴ / NA) = 9.96 moles

H, has 10 moles in the butano formula.

Sergio039 [100]

Answer:

The false statement is: 3. Because liquid water and liquid carbon tetrachloride do not mix, neither do their vapors

Explanation:

Gas is a state of matter, that has less density than liquids and solids. The gaseous particles have low intermolecular forces and thus they can move freely.

It is a very compressible fluid that has no fixed shape. Gas occupies the whole container in which it is stored, thus taking the shape of the container. Therefore, the volume of the gas is equal to the volume of the container.

Polar liquid like water (H₂O) and nonpolar liquid like carbon tetrachloride, are immiscible. However, in the gaseous state, their vapors form a homogeneous mixture.

iogann1982 [59]

Answer:

T₂ = 43.46 °C

Explanation:

Given that:

The heat of the formation of carbon dioxide = - 393.5 kJ/mol (Negative sign suggests heat loss)

It means that energy released when 1 mole of carbon undergoes combustion = 393.5 kJ = 393500 J

Heat gain by water = Heat lost by the reaction

Thus,

$m_{water}\times C_{water}\times \Delta T=Q$

For water:

Mass of water = 5100 g

Specific heat of water = 4.18 J/g°C

T₁ = 25 °C

T₂ = ?

Q = 393500 J

So,

$5100\times 4.18\times (T_2-25)=393500$

T₂ = 43.46 °C
