Why can you see a corona during a total solar eclipse?

Mumz [18]

Answer:

The corona shines only about half as brightly as the Moon and is normally not visible to the unaided eye, because its light is overwhelmed by the brilliance of the solar surface. During a total solar eclipse, however, the Moon blocks out the light from the photosphere, permitting eye observations of the corona.

SOVA2 [1]

This problem is providing us with the recommended maintenance dose of penicillin for children as 1.0 mg/kg/hr by injection. Thus, the delivery rate for a 40-pound child is required, if 10 mL of a 25 mg/mL solution of penicillin is added to a 100-mL bottle of saline. At the end, the result is 8.0 mL/hr:

<h3>Dimensional analysis:</h3>

In chemistry, dimensional analysis allows us to obtain a specific result given relevant information about it. Although a formula is not always provided, one can use the units as a reference for the calculations.

For example, this problem asks for the rate, in mL/hr, at which a child gets this dose, so the first step will be to get the mass of the child in kilograms:

$40 lb*\frac{0.4536kg}{1lb}= 18.144kg$

Next, we calculate the rate at which the penicillin is delivered to this child:

$1.0\frac{mg}{kg*hr} *18.144kg=18.144\frac{mg}{hr}$

After that, we calculate the total mass of penicillin that is delivered:

$10mL*25\frac{mg}{mL} =250 mg$

And get the new concentration once it is diluted to 100 mL:

$\frac{250mg}{10mL+100mL}=2.27\frac{mg}{mL}$

And finally, we combine the mg/hr with the mg/mL to get the result in mL/hr as required:

$18.144\frac{mg}{hr} *\frac{1mL}{2.27mg}\\ \\=8.0\frac{mL}{hr}$

What is the significance of molecular formula

Brilliant_brown [7]

Answer:

The molecular formula of a compound represents molecular mass of the substance. For example, the molecular mass of water molecule (H2O) is 18u.

(iv) The molecular formula of any compound gives the name, and actual number of atoms of each kind present in one molecule of the substance. For example, the formula for water is H2O. This means that every molecule of water is made up of 2 atoms of hydrogen and one atom of oxygen.

What methods were used to clean up the Chernobyl and three mile island accidents?

Assoli18 [71]

<u>Answer</u>:

Electric evaporator has been used to clean up the Chernobyl and 3 mile island accident.

<u>Explanation</u>:

About 14 years back, there was a puff of radioactive steam from the evaporator used in the "Three-mile island" nuclear plant. It took two years for the electric evaporator to clean up the 2.2 million gallons of water that have been destroyed because of the nuclear power plant accident.

The steam that came out of the electric evaporator carried a radioactive form of hydrogen and tritium with itself. Cost of clean up was $1 billion.

As electricity flows through a copper wire, the temperature of the wire increases. Some parts of the wire get warmer than others

mezya [45]

Answer:

Conduction

Explanation:

The heat can be transferred in the substances in three ways: conduction, convection, and radiation.

The conduction happens inside the material, usually a solid, and the heat flows as the molecules of the substance are agitated. The convection happens when there are different substances in touch, so it is the heat passage from a solid to a liquid or gas, from a gas to a liquid or vice versa. The radiation occurs between substances that are far away and the heat flows by electromagnetic waves.

Thus, in the wire, the heat flows by conduction.
