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>
First, the balanced reaction equation must be written out clearly as a guide to solving the problem. The molar masses of H3PO4 and K3PO4 are then calculated as they will be consistently required in solving the problem. The theoretical yield is obtained from the amount of H3PO4 reacted. Since 1 mole of H3PO4 yields 1 mole of K3PO4, 0.05 moles of H3PO4 yields 0.05 moles of K3PO4. The mass of K3PO4 is produced is then the product of 0.05 and it molar mass hence the theoretical yield. The % yield is calculated as shown.
Ptable is a great website that shows you a dynamic periodic table. It can show you which elements are Halogens, Alkali metals, transition metals, noble gases, and etc!
Chemicalaid is a nice website to find out more information about specific elements, it also lists every element on the periodic table.
