The end point of a titration was reached after 22 ml of 0.050 m disodium edta titrant was dispensed into a solution containing t

ale4655 [162]

The moles of disodium edta used is calculated using the below formula

moles =molarity x volume in liters

molarity=0.050m
volume in liters = 22/1000=0.022 L

moles is therefore= 0.022 x0.050 =1.1 x10^-3 moles of disodium edta

A student has four resistors. Each resistor has a resistance of 100 ohms.

ValentinkaMS [17]

Answer:

The minimum resistance is 25 ohms.

Explanation:

Resistance of each resistor is 100 ohms. When resistors are connected in parallel, the equivalent resistance is lowest. For parallel combination, the equivalent resistance is given by :

$\dfrac{1}{R}=\dfrac{1}{R_1}+\dfrac{1}{R_2}+....$

Here, all resistors are 100 ohms. So,

$\dfrac{1}{R}=\dfrac{1}{100}+\dfrac{1}{100}+\dfrac{1}{100}+\dfrac{1}{100}\\\\R=25\ \Omega$

So, the minimum resistance is 25 ohms.

58. A cylinder of a gas mixture used for calibration of blood gas analyzers in medical laboratories contains 5.0% CO2, 12.0% O2,

erica [24]

Answer and Explanation:

$Greetings!$

$Let's~answer~your~question!$

$Partial ~pressure ~of ~gas ~can ~be ~directly~ calculated ~by ~multiplying ~the~ percentage\\ of~ pressure~ of~ gases~ to ~the ~total ~pressure.$

$\boxed{Pgas~ = ~P~total~ * \% ~P ~of ~gas}$

For % of N2 gas: 

 $100\% - (5\% + 12\%) = 83\% ~N2$ 

 $PN_2 ~= ~146~ atm~ *~ 0.83 ~ = 121.18 ~atm$ 

 $PO_2 ~= ~146~ atm~ *~ 0.12~ = 17.52 ~atm$ 

 $~PCO_2~ = ~146~ atm ~* 0.05 = 7.3 ~atm$

Are properties such as odor, color, density, and solubility physical or chemical properties?

storchak [24]

Physical properties- color, density, solubility.
Chemical property- odor.

You see, a physical property is any property that can be measured , and a one that describes the state of the physical system.
