<h3>Answer:</h3>

7.838 seconds

<h3>Explanation:</h3>
  • Assuming the sound of sound in seawater is 1531 m/s we can calculate the time taken by the signal to leave the ship and back.
  • The depth to the bottom is 6000 meters
  • The sound signal will cover the distance twice, to and fro the bottom to the ship.
  • Time is calculated by dividing the distance by the velocity or speed.

In this case;

Time = (2× distance) ÷ velocity

        = (2×6000) m ÷ 1531 m/s

        = 12000 m ÷ 1531 m/s

        = 7.838 s

Therefore, it will take 7.838 s for the sound signal to leave the ship and bounce back off and return to the ship.

Classify each of these reactions. A single reaction may fit more than one classification. Ba ( ClO 3 ) 2 ⟶ BaCl 2 + 3 O 2 Ba(ClO
Lena [83]

Answer: a) Ba(ClO_3)_2\rightarrow BaCl_2+3O_2:  Decomposition

b) NaNO_2+HCl\rightarrow NaCl+HNO_2: double displacement

c) CaO+CO_2\rightarrow CaCO_3: Synthesis (Combination)

d) ZnSO_4+Mg\rightarrow MgSO_4+Zn: redox

Explanation:

Decomposition is a type of chemical reaction in which one reactant gives two or more than two products.

Ba(ClO_3)_2\rightarrow BaCl_2+3O_2

A double displacement reaction is one in which exchange of ions take place.

NaNO_2+HCl\rightarrow NaCl+HNO_2

Synthesis reaction is a chemical reaction in which two reactants are combining to form one product.

CaO+CO_2\rightarrow CaCO_3

Redox reaction is a type of chemical reaction in which oxidation and reduction takes place in one single reaction. The oxidation number of one element increases and the oxidation number of other element decreases.

ZnSO_4+Mg\rightarrow MgSO_4+Zn

How many grams of tris (mw 121.1) would you need to prepare 100 ml of a 100 mm tris solution? _________ grams?
Tems11 [23]

Molarity = (Mass/ molar mass) x (1/ volume of solution in Litres)

Mass = Molarity x molar mass x  volume of solution in Litres

Molarity of Tris = 100 mM = 0.1 M

volume of Tris sol. = 100 mL = 0.1 L

molar mass of Tris = 121.1 g/mol

Hence,

mass of Tris = Molarity of Tris x molar mass ofTris x volume of Tris solution

= 0.1 M x 121.1 g/mol x 0.1 L

= 1.211 g

mass of Tris = 1.211 g

Answer:6.48*10^{-2}

Explanation:

alright, dawg, lets get this bread. CHEMISTRY? OH YEAH I LOVE CHEMISTRY.

what is a mol? do you know who avogadro is? sounds like avocado. free shavocado. ok so you MUST REMEMBER THIS NUMBER PLEASE.

please remember this number and commit it to your memory: avogadros number

6.02 * 10^{23}

this is how much a mole is. you know how a pair is 2 and a dozen is 12? ok so a mole is 6.02 * 10^{23} it is confusing at first but hopefully this helps you to understand.

now that we understand this..... lets perform this calculation with a calculator

(3.90 * 10^{22}) / (6.02 * 10^{23})

notice i divide the question by the avogadros number to find out how many moles are in the number. ok but listen... it gets into a tough area here... because HOW ARE WE TO DIVIDE SUCH A HUMONGOUS NUMBER BY ANOTHER HUMONGOUS NUMBER?!?!?

its easy, its cake, just listen this is how you do it. only focus on the numbers NOT the 10 exponential ones. so just 3.90 and 6.02 ok? lets divide these two numbers 3.90 / 6.02 and we get 0.6478... how interesting... ok now lets deal with the exponents of 10. notice that we are DIVIDING these numbers so think of it as subtracting the exponents of ten.....    22 minus 23 equals -1

so we have 0.6478 * 10^{-1}

now this negative 1 thing is annoying so lets just make it to the power of 0

0.06478 * 10^{0}

and anything to the power of 0 just becomes 1.

0.06478

so this is our answer but keep in mind we need 3 sig figs. if we round then we get 0.0648

put this into scientific notation we get 6.48*10^{-2}
