 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

Calculate: (a) the weight (in lbf) of a 30.0 lbm object. (b) the mass in kg of an object that weighs 44N. (c) the weight in dyne
belka [17]

Answer:

a) 965,1 lbf

b) 4,5 kg

c) 1,33 * 10^6 dynes

Explanation:

Mass of an object refers to the amount of mattter it cotains, it can be expressed it gr, kg, lbm, ton, etc.

Weight of an object refers to a force, and is the measurement of the pull of gravitiy on an object. It may be definide as the mass times the acceleration of gravity.

                                        w=mg

In Planet Earth, the nominal "average" value for gravity is 9,8 m/s² (in the International  System) or 32,17 ft/s² (in the FPS system).

To solve this problem we'll use the following conversion factors:

1 lbf = 1 lbm*ft/s²

1 N = 1 kg*m/s²

1 dyne = 1 gr*cm/s²   and 1 N =10^5 dynes

1 ton = 907,18 kg

1 k = 1000 gr

a) m = 30 lbm

w = 30 lbm * 32,17 ft/s^{2} = 965, 1 \frac{lmb*ft}{s^{2} } = 965,1 lbf

b) w = 44 N

First, we clear m of the weight equation and then we replace our data.

m = \frac{w}{g} = \frac{44 N}{9,8 \frac{m}{{s}^{2}} } = 4,5 kg

c) m = 15 ton

m=15 ton * \frac{907,18 kg}{1 ton} = 13607,7 kg \\ w = mg = 13607,7 kg * 9,8 m/s2 = 133355,5 N * \frac{10^{5} dynes }{1 N} = 1,33 * 10^{6}dynes

What mass of ammonia can be produced if 13.4 grams of nitrogen gas reacted ?
aivan3 [116]

Answer:

If 13.4 grams of nitrogen gas reacts we'll produce 16.3 grams of ammonia

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Mass of nitrogen gas (N2) = 13.4 grams

Molar mass of N2 = 28 g/mol

Molar mass of NH3 = 17.03 g/mol

Step 2: The balanced equation

N2 + 3H2 → 2NH3

Step 3: Calculate moles of N2

Moles N2 = Mass N2 / molar mass N2

Moles N2 = 13.4 grams / 28.00 g/mol

Moles N2 = 0.479 moles

Step 4: Calculate moles of NH3

For 1 mol N2 we need 3 moles H2 to produce 2 moles NH3

For 0.479 moles N2 we'll produce 2*0.479 = 0.958 moles

Step 5: Calculate mass of NH3

Mass of NH3 = moles NH3 * molar mass NH3

Mass NH3 = 0.958 moles * 17.03 g/mol

Mass NH3 = 16.3 grams

If 13.4 grams of nitrogen gas reacts we'll produce 16.3 grams of ammonia

What is the mole fraction of O2O2 in a mixture of 15.1 gg of O2O2, 8.19 gg of N2N2, and 2.46 gg of H2H2
SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Answer:

Mole fraction O₂=  0.43

Explanation:

Mole fraction is the moles of gas/ total moles.

Let's determine the moles of each:

Moles O₂ → 15.1 g / 16 g/mol = 0.94

Moles N₂  →  8.19 g / 14 g/mol = 0.013

Moles H₂  → 2.46 / 2 g/mol = 1.23

Total moles = 2.183

Mole fraction O₂= 0.94 / 2.183 → 0.43
