Answer:

(a) 1.60 × 10⁻⁹ mm³/cell

(b) 2 × 10⁻⁴ L

Explanation:

The volume of a certain bacterial cell is 1.60 μm³. Give your answers in scientific notation.

(a) What is its volume in cubic millimeters (mm³)?

The required conversion factors are:

  • 1 m = 10⁶ μm
  • 1 m = 10³ mm

\frac{1.60\mu m^{3} }{cell} .(\frac{1m}{10^{6} \mu m})^{3} .(\frac{10^{3}mm }{1m} )^{3} =1.60\times 10^{-9} mm^{3} /cell

(b) What is the volume of (exactly) 1 × 10⁸ cells in liters (L)?

The required conversion factors are:

  • 1 mm³ = 1 mL
  • 1 L = 10³ mL

1\times 10^{8} cell \times \frac{1.60\times 10^{-9} mm^{3}}{cell} \times \frac{1mL}{1mm^{3} } \times \frac{1L}{10^{3}mL } =2 \times 10^{-4} L

The enthalpy change for converting 1.00 mol of ice at -50.0°c to water at 70.0°c is __________ kj. the specific heats of ice, wa
kogti [31]
First, calculate for the amount of heat used up for increasing the temperature of ice.

      H = mcpdT
       H = (18 g)*(2.09 J/g-K)(50 K) = 1881 J

Then, solve for the heat needed to convert the phase of water.
    H = (1 mol)(6.01 kJ/mol) = 6.01 kJ = 6010 J

Then, solve for the heat needed to increase again the temperature of water.
    H = (18 g)(4.18 J/gK)(70 k)
    H = 5266.8 J

The total value is equal to 13157.8 J

Answer: 13157.8 J

.7 liters of CO represents how many molecules?
Ronch [10]

Answer:

               1.88 × 10²² Molecules of CO

Explanation:

At STP for an ideal gas,

Volume = Mole × 22.4 L/mol

Or,

Mole = Volume / 22.4 L/mol

Mole = 0.7 L / 22.4 L/mol

Mole = 0.03125 moles

Now,

No. of Molecules = Moles × 6.022 × 10²³ Molecules/mol

No. of Molecules = 0.03125 × 6.022 × 10²³ Molecules/mol

No. of Molecules = 1.88 × 10²² Molecules of CO

What is the mass of 2.9 moles of calcium? Show all work!
4vir4ik [10]

Answer:

the mass of 2.9 moles of calcium is 116 g

Explanation:

The computation of the mass of 2.9 moles of calcium is shown below

As we know that

Mole = mass ÷  molar mass

where,

Moles be 2.9

And, we know that the molar mass of calcium be 40g/mol

Now put the values to the above formula

2.9 = Mass ÷ 40

So, the mass would be

= 40 × 2.9

=   116 g

Hence, the mass of 2.9 moles of calcium is 116 g
