Answer:A

Explanation:

The solar system consist of the sun, the planets, stars and other objects. The chemical composition of the Sun consist mainly of Hydrogen and helium.

The sun is the largest object in the Solar system, it comprises nearly all the matter in the Solar System, Also the largest planet after the Sun are Jupiter and Saturn are giant planets forming almost the remaining matter of the solar system.

Like the Sun, the mass of Jupiter and Saturn are composed of roughly 98% hydrogen and helium with 2% of all the other elements combined.

What is the mass, in grams, of 7.20×1020 molecules of caffeine, c8h10n4o2?
pickupchik [31]
To determine the mass, you need to know the molecular weight of the c8h10n4o2 . The molecular weight of <span>c8h10n4o2 would be: 8*12 + 10*1 + 4*14 + 2*16= 194g/mol.
To convert the number of molecules into moles, you need to divide it with 6.02 * 10^23. The calculation of the mass of </span>c8h10n4o2 would be: 
(7.20×10^20 molecules)  /(6.02 * 10^23 molecule/mol)  * 194g/mol= 232 * 10^-3 grams= 0.232 grams

How much energy is released when 22.4g of CH4 is burned?
solniwko [45]

The combustion of methane, CH4, releases 890.4 kJ/mol. That is, when one mole of methane is burned, 890.4 kJ are given off to the surroundings. This means that the products have 890.4 kJ less than the reactants.

The correct mathematical expression for finding the molar solubility (s) of calcium phosphate is
GalinKa [24]

Answer is: The molar solubility of calcium phosphate is 108s⁵ = Ksp.

<span> Balanced chemical reaction: Ca</span>₃(PO₄)₂(s) → 3Ca²⁺(aq) + 2PO₄³⁻(aq).<span>
[Ca²</span>⁺] = 3s(Ca₃(PO₄)₂) = 3s.<span>
[PO</span>₄³⁻] = 2s.<span>
Ksp = [Ca²</span>⁺]³ · [PO₄³⁻]².<span>
Ksp = (3s)³ · (2s)².
Ksp = 108s</span>⁵.

s = ⁵√(Ksp ÷ 108).

Purification of copper can be achieved by electrorefining copper from an impure copper anode onto a pure copper cathode in an el
Dovator [93]

Answer: 406 hours

Explanation:

Q=I\times t

where Q= quantity of electricity in coloumbs

I = current in amperes = 39.5 A

t= time in seconds = ?

The deposition of copper at cathode is represented by:

Cu^{2+}+2e^-\rightarrow Cu

96500\times 2=193000 Coloumb of electricity deposits 1 mole of copper

i.e. 63.5 g of copper is deposited by = 193000 Coloumb

Thus 19.0 kg or 19000 g of copper is deposited by = \frac{193000}{63.5}\times 19000=57748032 Coloumb

57748032=39.5\times t

t=1461975sec=406hours    (1hour=3600s)

Thus it will take 406 hours to plate 19.0 kg of copper onto the cathode if the current passed through the cell is held constant at 39.5 A

An electrochemical cell is composed of pure nickel and pure iron electrodes immersed in solutions of their divalent ions at room
Andrej [43]

Answer:

0.758 V.

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, case when we include the effect of concentration on an electrochemical cell, we need to consider the Nerst equation at 25 °C:

E=E\°-\frac{0.0591}{n} log(Q)

Whereas n stands for the number of moles of transferred electrons and Q the reaction quotient relating the concentration of the oxidized species over the concentration of the reduced species. In such a way, we can write the undergoing half-reactions in the cell, considering the iron's one is reversed because it has the most positive standard potential so it tends to reduction:

Fe^{2+}+2e^-\rightarrow Fe^0\ \ \ E\°=0.440V\\\\Ni^0\rightarrow Ni^{2+}+2e^-\ \ \ E\°=-0.250V

It means that the concentration of the oxidized species is 0.002 M (that of nickel), that of the reduced species is 0.40 M and there are two moles of transferred electrons; therefore, the generated potential turns out:

E=(0.440V+0.250V)-\frac{0.0591}{2} log(\frac{0.002M}{0.40M} )\\\\E=0.758V

Beat regards!
