Over 68% of the freshwater on Earth can be found in glaciers and icecaps.

If your looking for the remaining amount 30% is groundwater and .3% is found on rivers, lakes, etc.

15. What volume of CCI, (d = 1.6 g/cc) contain

anastassius [24]

Answer:

$\boxed{\text{(3) 9.6 L}}$

Explanation:

1. Moles of CCl₄

$n = 6.02 \times 10^{25} \text{ molecules} \times \dfrac{\text{1 mol}}{6.022 \times 10^{23}\text{ molecules}} = \text{100.0 mol}$

2. Molar mass of CCl₄

MM = 1 × 12.01 + 4 × 35.5 = 12.01 + 142 = 154.0 g/mol

3. Mass of CCl₄

$m =\text{100.0 mol} \times \dfrac{\text{154.0 g}}{\text{1 mol}} = \text{15 400 g}$

4. Volume of CCl₄

$V = \text{15 400 g} \times \dfrac{\text{1 cm}^{3}}{\text{1.6 g}} = \text{9600 cm}^{3}\\\\V = \text{9600 cm}^{3} \times \dfrac{\text{1 L}}{\text{1000 cm}^{3}} = \mathbf{{9.6 L}}\\\\\text{The volume of CCl$_{4}$ is } \boxed{\textbf{9.6 L}}$

Please Explain. Why does salt water boil at a lower temperature than tap water?

nexus9112 [7]

We observe that heat capacity of salted water we will find that it is less than pure water. We now that it takes less energy to increase the temperature of the salt water 1°C than pure water. Which means that the salted water heats up faster and eventually reaches to its boiling point first.

Ray Of Light [21]

Answer:

Towards the big bully

Explanation:

If a big bully and a small child are involved in a thug of war, it is clear that the bully is stronger than the child and he/she will pull the rope used in the thug of war with a greater force.

By so doing, the ball attached at the centre of the rope will naturally be drawn towards the stronger bully.

Un tanque de acetileno para una antorcha de soldadura de oxiacetileno proporciona 9340 L de gas acetileno, C2H2, a 0°C y 1 atm 2

Helen [10]

Answer:

3.33 tanques de O₂

Explanation:

Basados en la reacción:

2C₂H₂(g) + 5O₂(g) → 4CO₂(g) + 2H₂O(g)

2 moles de acetileno reaccionan con 5 moles de oxígeno produciendo 4 moles de dióxido de carbono y 2 moles de agua

La ley de Avogadro dice que el volumen de un gas bajo temperatura y presión constantes es proporcional a las moles de este gas. Así, como 2 moles de acetileno reaccionan con 5 moles de oxígeno, los litros de O₂ necesarios para quemar 9340L de acetileno son:

9340 L C₂H₂ × (5 moles O₂ / 2 moles C₂H₂) = 23350L de O₂

Si un tanque contiene 7x10³ L de O₂ serán necesarios:

23350L O₂ ₓ (1 tanque / 7x10³L) = 3.33 tanques de O₂
