Answer:

0.296j/g⁰c

Explanation:

we have the following information from this question before us.

mass iv substance = 50grams

we have initial temperature ti = 20.2⁰c

final temperature = 125⁰c

the energy that was provided = 155kj

we proceed with this formula

energy = mcΔT

1.55x10³ = 50 x c x (125-20.2)

1.55x10³ = c x 50gm x 104.8k

we divide through to get c

c = 1.55x10³/50g x 104.8

c = 0.296J/g⁰c

that is the specific heat of this substance.

thank you!

If a tube contains 2.0oz of sunscreen, how many kilograms of benzyl salicylate are needed to manufacture 325 tubes of sunscreen
Vadim26 [7]

<u>Answer:</u>

Now it is given here that there are 325 tubes that are manufactured for sunscreen. And we also know that the percentage of sunscreen in benzyl salicylate is 2.5% here in one tube we have 2 Oz of sunscreen.

<u>Explanation:</u>

So sunscreen in 325 tubes will be 2 x 325= 650 Oz. Since we know the amount of sunscreen in 325 tubes the amount of Benzyl salicylate in all 325 tubes will be 650 x 0.025 = 16.25 Oz

<em>Now this can be converted into kg as 0.46 kg</em>.

Deep sea divers use a mixture of helium and oxygen to breathe. Assume that a diver is going to a depth of 150 feet where the tot
Svetlanka [38]

Answer:

4.525% is the percentage by volume of oxygen in the gas mixture.

Explanation:

Total pressure of the mixture = p = 4.42 atm

Partial pressure of the oxygen = p_1=0.20 atm

Partial pressure of the helium = p_2

p_1=p\times \chi_1 (Dalton law of partial pressure)

0.20 atm=4.42 atm\times \chi_1

\chi_1=\frac{0.20 atm}{4.42 atm}=0.04525

\chi_2=1-\chi_1=1-0.04525=0.95475

chi_1+chi_2=1

n_1=0.04525 mol,n_2=0.95475 mol

According Avogadro law:

Moles\propto Volume (At temperature and pressure)

Volume occupied by oxygen gas  =V_1

Total moles of gases = n = 1 mol

Total Volume of the gases = V

\frac{n_1}{V_1}=\frac{n}{V}

\frac{V_1}{V}=\frac{n_1}{n}=\frac{0.04525 mol}{1 mol}

Percent by volume of oxygen in the gas mixture:

\frac{V_1}{V}\times 100=\frac{0.04525 mol}{1 mol}\times 100=4.525\%

This is the chemical formula for carvone (the chemical that gives spearmint its flavor): An organic chemist has determined by me
xz_007 [3.2K]

The given question is incomplete. The complete question is :

This is the chemical formula for carvone (the chemical that gives spearmint its flavor) C_{10}H_{14}O: An organic chemist has determined by measurements that there are 27.3 moles of carbon in a sample of carvone. How many moles of oxygen are in the sample

Answer: 2.73 moles of oxygen are there in the sample.

Explanation:

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

This means:

When 10 moles of carbon are there in carvone , 1 mole of oxygen is there in carvone

Thus for 27.3 moles of carbon in carvone , \frac{1}{10}\times 27.3=2.73 mole of oxygen is there in carvone.

Thus 2.73 moles of oxygen are there in the sample.

REY [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

According to this. Let's analize the possible products a, b and c.

First, the problem states that we have 2 eq. of base, For this case, let's assume it's KOH. Now, As we are doing a reaction with base, means that this reaction can only take places under conditions of SN2 and E2, a fast reaction that is taking place in only 1 step.

With this in mind, let's analyze product a. This states that it has two sp hybridized carbon, in other words, a triple bond between two carbons. So the product is with no doubt, an alkyne.

Product b has only one sp hybridized carbon, which means that this carbon should cannot be an alkyne because we need two carbon atoms. The only way to have one atom of C sp hybridized, is with two double bonds, so product b would have to a alkene with two double bonds.

Product c do not have sp hybridized carbon, therefore, it only has two double bonds in two different Carbon atoms, so it's another alkene with two double bonds, but in two different atoms of carbon.

Picture attached show the product a, b and c. Hope this can help
