Suppose now that you wanted to determine the density of a small crystal to confirm that it is sulfur. From the literature, you k

now that sulfur has a density of 2.07 . How would you prepare 20.0 mL of the liquid mixture having that density from pure samples of ( = 1.492 g/mL) and ( = 2.890 g/mL)? (Note: 1 mL = 1 .)

Answer:

Mix 11.73 mL of CHCl₃ and 8.27 mL of CHBr₃

Explanation:

To begin, it seems your question lacks the name of the pure samples that will be mixed to prepare the liquid mixture. The names are not necessary, as the numerical values are there. However, an internet search tells me they are CHCl₃ (d=1.492g/mL) and CHBr₃ (d=2.890 g/mL).

The mixture has a density of 2.07 g/mL, so <u>20 mL of the mixture would weigh</u>:

20 mL * 2.07 g/mL = 41.4 g

Let X be the volume of CHCl₃ and Y the volume of CHBr₃:

X + Y = 20 mL

The mass of CHCl₃ and CHBr₃ combined have to be equal to the mass of the mixture. We can write that equation using the volume of the samples and their density:

X * 1.492 + Y * 2.890 = 41.4 g

So now we have a system of two equations and two unknowns, we use algebra to solve it:

   1. Express Y in terms of X:

X + Y = 20

  • Y = 20 - X

   2. Replace Y in the second equation:

X * 1.492 + Y * 2.890 = 41.4

  • 1.492*X + 2.890*(20-X) = 41.4

   3. Solve for X:

  • 1.492*X + 57.8 - 2.890*X = 41.4
  • 1.398*X = 16.4
  • X = 11.73 mL

   4. Using the now known value of X, solve for Y:

X + Y = 20

  • 11.73 + Y = 20
  • Y = 8.27 mL

So, to prepare the liquid mixture we would mix 8.27 mL of CHBr₃ and 11.73 mL of  CHCl₃.

Express each of the following answers in the IUPAC format. Do not include any capitals or spaces in your name. Separate multiple
lorasvet [3.4K]

The full question is shown in the image attached

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

In naming an alkane, the first thing we do is to obtain the parent chain by counting the number of carbon atoms in the chain.

When we obtain that, then we identify the substituents and number them in such a way that they have the lowest numbers. The compounds shown have the following names according to the order in which the structures appear in the image attached;

1. 2-methyl propane

2. 2,4-dimethyl heptane

3. 2,2,3,3-tetramethyl butane

4. 5-ethyl-2,4-dimethyl octane

What did Thomas Young, Max planck and Albert Einstein contribute towards the nature of light?
Lera25 [3.4K]

The contribution to the nature of light-

Thomas Young - wave nature of light (double-slit experiment)

Max Planck - E = hv

Albert Einstein - a quantum theory of light

Thomas Young proposed the most important double-slit experiment which shows that light acts like a wave and shows the pattern of interferences.

Max Planck proposed that light is proportional to frequency. He gave the equation, E = hv, where E is the energy of light, h is Planck's constant, and v is the frequency.

Albert Einstein proposed the quantum theory of light. He determined that light exists in discrete quanta of energy called photons.

Suppose you find a rock that contains some potassium-40 (half-life of 1.3 billion years). you measure the amount and determine t
Alborosie
Equation for Half life :
A = a(0.5)^(t/h)
A is current amount, "a" is initial amount, h is halflife, t is time

5 = 40(0.5)^(t/1.3x10^9)
5/40 = (0.5)^(t/1.3x10^9)
take the log of both sides , power rule
Log(5/40) = (t/1.3x10^9) * Log(0.5)
(1.3x10^9) * Log(5/40) / Log(0.5) = t
3.9x10^9 years = t

And if you think about what a half life is, the time it take for the amount to reduce to half.
40/2 = 20
20/2 = 10
10/2 = 5
It went through 3 half-lifes
3 * 1.3x10^9 = 3.9x10^9 years
