<u>Satelites</u> are a type of space technology utilizes the electromagnetic spectrum to collect information.

Explanation:

Depending on the electromagnetic spectrum that the satellite is designed for, it can be utilized for a certain scientific function. The Hubble Telescope, for example, is designed to perceive the visible light spectrum of electromagnetic radiation to provide the beautiful pictures of space we see today. Some satellites that orbit teh earth are sensitive to infra-red radiation and are used to monitor earth’s atmospheric and ocean temperatures. Some satellites are designed for X-rays and gamma rays and are used to search for supernovae.

What do you mean by fractional column?

jekas [21]

A tall, horizontally subdivided or packed container for fractional distillation in which vapor passes upward and condensing liquid flows downward. The vapor becomes progressively enriched in more volatile components as it ascends, and the less volatile components become concentrated in the descending liquid, which can be drawn off.

The analysis of a compound gives the following percent composition by mass: C: 52.14 percent; H: 9.946 percent; S: 12.66 percent

wariber [46]

Answer:

C11H25SO4

Explanation:

The total mass of the compound is 253.4 g, so, the mass of each element will be:

C: 52.14% of 253.4 = 0.5214x253.4 = 132.12 g

H: 9.946% of 253.4 = 0.09946x253.4 = 25.20 g

S: 12.66% of 253.4 = 0.1266x253.4 = 32.08 g

O: 25.26% of 253.4 = 0.2526x253.4 = 64.00 g

The molar mass are: C = 12 g/mol, H 1 g/mol, S = 32 g/mol, and O = 16 g/mol

So, to know how much moles will be, just divide the mass calculated above for the molar mass:

C: 132.12/12 = 11 moles

H: 25.20/ 1 = 25 moles

S: 32.08/32 = 1 mol

O: 64.00/16 = 4 moles

So the molecular formula is C11H25SO4

What is the solution to the problem to the correct number of significant figures (102,900/12)+(170•1.27)

GarryVolchara [31]

As per as the Multiplication rules of the significant figures, whenever any numbers in the decimals forms are multiplied or divided then result in mentioned in such a way so that the significant figures after the decimal will be same as that in the given least condition.

_______________________________

102900/12 = 8575

170 × 1.27 = 215.9

∴ (102,900 ÷ 12) + (170 × 1.27) = 8575 + 215.9

= 8790.9

Now, As per as Above rules, answer in correct significant figures will be = 8791.
