 3.0 × 10¹¹ RBC's    (or)      3E11 RBC's


Solution:

Step 1: Convert mm³ into L;


As,


                                            1 mm³  =  1.0 × 10⁻⁶ Liters


So,


                                         0.1 mm³  =  X  Liters


Solving for X,


                       X  =  (0.1 mm³ × 1.0 × 10⁻⁶ Liters) ÷ 1 mm³


                       X  =  1.0 × 10⁻⁷ Liters


Step 2: Calculate No. of RBC's in 5 Liter Blood:


As given


                        1.0 × 10⁻⁷ Liters Blood contains  =  6000 RBC's


So,


                         5.0 Liters of Blood will contain  =  X  RBC's


Solving for X,


                      X  =  (5.0 Liters × 6000 RBC's) ÷ 1.0 × 10⁻⁷ Liters


                      X  =  3.0 × 10¹¹ RBC's


Or,


                     X  =  3E11 RBC's

Kia is doing an experiment in science lab. She is given a beaker containing 100 g of liquid. The beaker has markings on the side
vlabodo [156]
The key to solving this problem is density. Density determines the mass of a molecule for a certain volume. Kia is given a beaker containing 100 g which volume is at <span>100 mL mark. Then the density of the liquid would be:
</span>density=mass/volume
density= 100g/ 100ml= 1g/ml

If t<span>he water now comes up to the 50 mL mark, then the weight would be:
</span>density = mass/volume
mass = volume * density
<span>mass = 50ml * (1g/ml)= 50g</span>

The specific heat of liquid bromine is 0.226 J/g-K. How much heat (J) is required to raise the temperature of 10.0 mL of bromine
Viefleur [7K]

Answer:

16.2 J

Explanation:

Step 1: Given data

  • Specific heat of liquid bromine (c): 0.226 J/g.K
  • Volume of bromine (V): 10.0 mL
  • Initial temperature: 25.00 °C
  • Final temperature: 27.30 °C
  • Density of bromine (ρ): 3.12 g/mL

Step 2: Calculate the mass of bromine

The density is equal to the mass divided by the volume.

ρ = m/V

m = ρ × V

m = 3.12 g/mL × 10.0 mL

m = 31.2 g

Step 3: Calculate the change in the temperature (ΔT)

ΔT = 27.30 °C - 25.00 °C = 2.30 °C

The change in the temperature on the Celsius scale is equal to the change in the temperature on the Kelvin scale. Then, 2.30 °C = 2.30 K.

Step 4: Calculate the heat required (Q) to raise the temperature of the liquid bromine

We will use the following expression.

Q = c × m × ΔT

Q = 0.226 J/g.K × 31.2 g × 2.30 K

Q = 16.2 J

The specific heat of nickel is 0.44 J/g*⁰C. How much energy needed to change the temperature of 95.4g of nickel from 22⁰C to 32⁰
valentinak56 [21]
To determine the heat or energy needed for the process, we use the equation,
                                               H  = mcpdT
where m is the mass, cp is the specific heat and dT is the temperature difference. 
                                               H = (95.4g)(0.44 J/g°C)(32°C - 22°C)
                                                   = 419.76 J
Thus, the amount of heat that should be ABSORBED is approximately 419.76 J.

Which of the following is a correct statement?
Maru [420]

Answer:

Reflection takes place from the polished smooth surfaces

Explanation:

A vacuum does not refer to an opaque body. An opaque body does not allow light to pass through it while a vacuum is simply empty space without air.

A smooth polished surface often acts as a mirror, it is a good reflector of light.

The moon is a non luminous body in the sky. It merely reflects the light from the sun.

A Pinhole camera can not take pictures of moving objects because it only focuses on any image placed before it.

Shadows are not inverted, the always appear upright.
