Sound waves need to travel through a medium such as a solid, liquid, or gas. The sound waves move through each of these mediums by vibrating the molecules in the matter. The molecules in solids are packed very tightly. Liquids are not packed as tightly as solids. And gases are very loosely packed. The spacing of the molecules enables sound to travel much faster through a solid than a gas. Sound travels about four times faster and farther in water than it does in air. This is why whales can communicate over huge distances in the oceans. Sound waves travel about thirteen times faster in wood than air. They also travel faster on hotter days as the molecules bump into each other more often than when it is cold.
Answer:
The sugar water mix is a mixture.
Answer:
B
Explanation:
Balanced equations have the same number of elements on both sides. If the number of elements are equal to each other for every element in the equation on both sides, then the equation is balanced.
Important concept : The big number before an element or compound represents how many molecules of that compound or element there are in a reaction. To find the number of atoms of each element you multiply the coefficient by the subscript ( small number ) which represents the number of atoms of that element in each molecule. Ex. 3H2O. There is a coefficient of 3 meaning that there are 3 molecules of H2O. There is a subscript after H meaning there are 2 atoms of hydrogen in each molecule. To find the total number of atoms we multiply the subscript of hydrogen by the coefficient of the whole molecule. 3 * 2 = 6 , so there are a total of 6 atoms of hydrogen in 3H2O
A) Cu + 2AgNO3 ==> CuNO3 + 2Ag
1 Cu 1
2 Ag 2
2 N 1
3 O 3
The amount of nitrogen atoms is different on both sides of the equation therefore this is not a balanced equation
B) CCl4 + O2 ==> CO2 + 2Cl2
1 C 1
4 Cl 4
2 O 2
The number of atoms of each element is the same on both sides of the equation therefore this is the balanced equation, however lets check the other answer choices just in case.
C) 2K + H2SO4 ==> K2SO4 + 2H2
2 K 2
1 H 4
1 S 1
4 O 4
The number of Hydrogen atoms are different on each side of the equation therefore this is not a balanced equation.
D) 2Al2O3 ==> 2Al + 3O2
4 Al 2
6 O 6
There are a different amount of aluminum atoms on both sides of the equation therefore this is not a balanced equation.
<u>Ans: Acetic acid = 90.3 mM and Sodium acetate = 160 mM</u>
Given:
Acetic Acid/Sodium Acetate buffer of pH = 5.0
Let HA = acetic acid
A- = sodium acetate
Total concentration [HA] + [A-] = 250 mM ------(1)
pKa(acetic acid) = 4.75
Based on Henderson-Hasselbalch equation
pH = pKa + log[A-]/[HA]
[A-]/[HA] = 10^(pH-pKa) = 10^(5-4.75) = 10^0.25 = 1.77
[A-] = 1.77[HA] -----(2)
From (1) and (2)
[HA] + 1.77[HA] = 250 mM
[HA] = 250/2.77 = 90.25 mM
[A-] = 1.77(90.25) = 159.74 mM
Answer:
72.6 grams
Explanation:
I got this answer through stoichiometry. For every 1 mole of Mg, 2 moles of CuBr are consumed. Because of this, multiply the moles of Mg by 2. Then, convert moles to grams.
