Chemistry
1 answer:
anyanavicka [17]4 years ago
5 0
Light travels at precisely <span>299,792,458 metres every second (abbreviated to 3 x 10^8 metres every second but let's be precise)
There are 60 seconds in every minute (</span><span>299 792 458 x 60 = 17,987,547,480m)
60 minutes in every hour (17,987,547,480 x 60 = 1,079,252,849,000m)
96 hours in 4 days (</span><span>1,079,252,849,000 x 96 =  10,360,827,350,000m)
</span><span>Now let's convert to km to make this number (slightly) more manageable
(</span>10,360,827,350,000 / 1000 = <span>103,608,273,500km)
</span>Light travels <span>103,608,273,500km in 4 days - that's the equivalent of going around the equator of the earth 813,124 times!</span><span>

Which is more stable? half filled or full filled? Why is it more stable?
olchik [2.2K]

<span>A full filled atom is more stable than the half filled atom. This is because it has an equal number of protons and electrons.  The protons cancel out the electrons and thus giving it a net charge of zero. It cannot be further ionized.</span>

In a favorable reaction, the free energy of the products is ________ the free energy of the reactants. In a favorable reaction,
steposvetlana [31]

Answer:

In a favorable reaction, the free energy of the products is less than the free energy of the reactants.

Explanation:

The free energy of a system is the amount of a system's internal energy that is available to perform work. The different forms of free energy include Gibbs free energy and Helmholtz free energy.

In a system at constant temperature and pressure, the energy that can be converted into work or the amount of usable energy in that system is known as Gibbs free energy. In a system at constant temperature and volume, the energy that can be converted into work is known as Helmholtz free energy.

The change in free energy of a system is the maximum usable energy that is released or absorbed by a system when it goes from the initial state (i.e., all reactants) to the final state (i.e., all products).

In a chemical reaction, some bonds in the reactants are broken by absorbing energy and new bonds are formed in the products by releasing energy. As the reaction proceeds, the free energy of reactants is much greater than the products. As the products are formed, the concentration of reactants decreases and the difference in their free energy also decreases. This chemical reaction will occur until chemical equilibrium is achieved i.e., the free energy of the products and reactants is equal and the difference in their free energy is zero.

How many milliliters of 50 by mass hno3 solution, with a density of 2.00 grams per milliliter are required to make 500 ml
den301095 [7]

Answer:

V = 331.13 mL of 50 by mass NO3 solution

Explanation:

∴ δ sln = 2.00 g/mL

∴ %m HNO3 = 50% = ( mass HNO3 / mass sln ) × 100

∴ V required sln = 500 mL

∴ δ HNO3 = 1.51 g/mL.......from literature

⇒ V sln = mass sln / δ sln = 500 mL

⇒ mass sln = (500 mL )×( 2 g/mL ) = 1000 g sln

⇒ mass HNO3 = ( 0.5 )×(1000 g) = 500 g HNO3

⇒ V HNO3 = ( 500 g HNO3 )×(ml HNO3/1.51 g ) = 331.13 mL
