<u>Answer:</u> The mass of carbon in given amount of carvone is 47.52 grams

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the number of moles, we use the equation:

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}     .....(1)

Given mass of carvone = 55.4 g

Molar mass of carvone = 150.22 g/mol

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

\text{Moles of carvone}=\frac{55.4g}{150.22g/mol}=0.369mol

The chemical formula of carvone is C_{10}H_{14}O

This contains 10 moles of carbon atom, 14 moles of hydrogen atom and 1 mole  of oxygen atom

Now, calculating the mass of carbon in carvone from equation 1, we get:

Molar mass of carbon = 12 g/mol

Moles of carbon = (10 × 0.396) = 3.96 moles

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

3.96mol=\frac{\text{Mass of carbon}}{12g/mol}\\\\\text{Mass of carbon}=(3.96mol\times 12g/mol)=47.52g

Hence, the mass of carbon in given amount of carvone is 47.52 grams

Gamma rays contain much more energy (most penetrating) than radio waves because they have a greater frequencies.
Radio waves are the electromagnetic waves with the longest wavelengths (1dm to 100 km), lowest frequencies (3kHz to 3GHz) and lowest energy (124 peV to <span>12,4 μeV).
</span>Gamma rays are the electromagnetic waves with the shortest wavelengths (1 pm), highest frequencies (300 EHz) and highest energy (1,24 Me<span>V</span>).

A sample of gas in a 14.6 L flexible container is at 25.0oC and 1.00atm. What is the volume of the sample when heated to 220.0oC
inn [45]

Answer: 24.1 L

Explanation:

To calculate the final temperature of the system, we use the equation given by Charles' Law. This law states that volume of the gas is directly proportional to the temperature of the gas at constant pressure.

Mathematically,

\frac{V_1}{T_1}=\frac{V_2}{T_2}

where,

V_1\text{ and }T_1 are the initial volume and temperature of the gas.

V_2\text{ and }T_2 are the final volume and temperature of the gas.

We are given:

V_1=14.6L\\T_1=25.0^oC=(25+273)K=298K\\V_2=?\\T_2=220.0^0C=(220+273)K=493K

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\frac{14.6}{298K}=\frac{V_2}{493}\\\\V_2=24.1L

Thus the volume of the sample when heated to 220.0oC and the pressure is constant is 24.1 L
