Answer:

129,600kg/day

Explanation:

The river is flowing at 30.0

1 m³ is equivalent to 1000L

flowrate of river = 30*1000 =30,000L/s

Convert L/s to litre per day by multiplying by 24*60*60

flowrate of river = 30,000 * 24*60*60 L/day

                    = 2,592,000,000L/day

if the river contains 50mg of salt  in 1L of solution

lets find how many mg of salt Y is contained in 2,592,000,000L/day

by cross multiplying we have

Y=\frac{2592000000*50}{1}

Y= 129,600,000,000 mg/day

convert this value to kg/day by dividing by 1 million

Y= 129,600,000,000/1000000

Y= 129,600kg/day

How many hydrogen bonds can CH2O make to water
VladimirAG [237]
Hydrogen bonds are not like covalent bonds. They are nowhere near as strong and you can't think of them in terms of a definite number like a valence. Polar molecules interact with each other and hydrogen bonds are an example of this where the interaction is especially strong. In your example you could represent it like this: 

<span>H2C=O---------H-OH </span>

<span>But you should remember that the H2O molecule will be exchanging constantly with others in the solvation shell of the formaldehyde molecule and these in turn will be exchanging with other H2O molecules in the bulk solution. </span>

<span>Formaldehyde in aqueous solution is in equilibrium with its hydrate. </span>

<span>H2C=O + H2O <-----------------> H2C(OH)2</span>

What relationship do you see between an electronic configuration of an element to its most common ion formed?
ZanzabumX [31]
An ion is an atom that has lost or gained an electron so the relation ship you would see would be a negative or a positive one depending on if it gained or lost an electron.<span />

Calculate the empirical formula for each stimulant based on its elemental mass percent composition. a. nicotine (found in tobacc
Ira Lisetskai [31]

This an incomplete question, here is a complete question.

Calculate the empirical formula for each stimulant based on its elemental mass percent composition.

a. nicotine (found in tobacco leaves): C 74.03%, H 8.70%, N 17.27%

b. caffeine (found in coffee beans): C 49.48%, H 5.19 %, N 28.85% and O 16.48%

Answer:

(a) The empirical formula for the given compound is C_5H_7N

(b) The empirical formula for the given compound is C_4H_5N_2O

Explanation:

<u>Part A: nicotine </u>

We are given:

Percentage of C = 74.03 %

Percentage of H = 8.70 %

Percentage of N = 17.27 %

Let the mass of compound be 100 g. So, percentages given are taken as mass.

Mass of C = 74.03 g

Mass of H = 8.70 g

Mass of N = 17.27 g

To formulate the empirical formula, we need to follow some steps:

Step 1: Converting the given masses into moles.

Moles of Carbon =\frac{\text{Given mass of Carbon}}{\text{Molar mass of Carbon}}=\frac{74.03g}{12g/mole}=6.17moles

Moles of Hydrogen = \frac{\text{Given mass of Hydrogen}}{\text{Molar mass of Hydrogen}}=\frac{8.70g}{1g/mole}=8.70moles

Moles of Nitrogen = \frac{\text{Given mass of nitrogen}}{\text{Molar mass of nitrogen}}=\frac{17.27g}{14g/mole}=1.23moles

Step 2: Calculating the mole ratio of the given elements.

For the mole ratio, we divide each value of the moles by the smallest number of moles calculated which is 1.23 moles.

For Carbon = \frac{6.17}{1.23}=5.01\approx 5

For Hydrogen  = \frac{8.70}{1.23}=7.07\approx 7

For Nitrogen = \frac{1.23}{1.23}=1

Step 3: Taking the mole ratio as their subscripts.

The ratio of C : H : N = 5 : 7 : 1

The empirical formula for the given compound is C_5H_7N_1=C_5H_7N

<u>Part B: caffeine</u>

We are given:

Percentage of C = 49.48 %

Percentage of H = 5.19 %

Percentage of N = 28.85 %

Percentage of O = 16.48 %

Let the mass of compound be 100 g. So, percentages given are taken as mass.

Mass of C = 49.48 g

Mass of H = 5.19 g

Mass of N = 28.85 g

Mass of O = 16.48 g

To formulate the empirical formula, we need to follow some steps:

Step 1: Converting the given masses into moles.

Moles of Carbon = \frac{\text{Given mass of Carbon}}{\text{Molar mass of Carbon}}=\frac{49.48g}{12g/mole}=4.12moles

Moles of Hydrogen = \frac{\text{Given mass of Hydrogen}}{\text{Molar mass of Hydrogen}}=\frac{5.19g}{1g/mole}=5.19moles

Moles of Nitrogen = \frac{\text{Given mass of nitrogen}}{\text{Molar mass of nitrogen}}=\frac{28.85g}{14g/mole}=2.06moles

Moles of Oxygen = \frac{\text{Given mass of oxygen}}{\text{Molar mass of oxygen}}=\frac{16.48g}{16g/mole}=1.03moles

Step 2: Calculating the mole ratio of the given elements.

For the mole ratio, we divide each value of the moles by the smallest number of moles calculated which is 1.03 moles.

For Carbon = \frac{4.12}{1.03}=4

For Hydrogen  = \frac{5.19}{1.03}=5.03\approx 5

For Nitrogen = \frac{2.06}{1.03}=2

For Nitrogen = \frac{1.03}{1.03}=1

Step 3: Taking the mole ratio as their subscripts.

The ratio of C : H : N : O = 4 : 5 : 2 : 1

The empirical formula for the given compound is C_4H_5N_2O_1=C_4H_5N_2O
