Why do scientist look to the ocean floor to research the mantle?

1 answer:

3 0

Because the Earth's crust is thinnest at the ocean floor; so the easiest access to the mantle is at the ocean floor.

A 2.000 g sample of CoCl2.xH2O is dried in an oven. When the anhydrous salt is removed from the oven, its mass is 1.565 g. What

Mashutka [201]

The value of X is 2

The total amount of sample taken is 2.00 g

The amount of sample left in the oven after drying is 1.565g

The amount of sample lost (mass of water driven out) = Total sample-Anhydrous salt left in the oven

= 2.00 - 1.565

= 0.435 grams

The moles of anhydrous salt present in the hydrate = 1.565g/129.83g/mol = 0.01205

The moles of water present in the hydrate = 0.4350g/18.01g/mol = 0.02415

Therefore the ratio of these two are in 1:2 ratio

The complete chemical reaction is CoCl2.2H20

The reaction for photosynthesis producing glucose sugar and oxygen gas is:

Anvisha [2.4K]

1.5 grams of glucose is produced from 2.20 g of CO₂.

To find the mass of glucose produced, first you must know the balanced reaction. For this, the Law of Conservation of Matter is followed.

The law of conservation of matter states that since no atom can be created or destroyed in a chemical reaction, the number of atoms that are present in the reagents has to be equal to the number of atoms present in the products.

So, in this case, the balanced reaction is:

6 CO₂ + 6 H₂O → C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6 O₂

By stoichiometry of the reaction (that is, the relationship between the amount of reagents and products in a chemical reaction), the amounts of moles of each reactant and product participate in the reaction:

CO₂: 6 moles
H₂O: 6 moles
C₆H₁₂O₆: 1 mole
O₂: 6 moles

So, you know that 2.20 g of CO₂ react, whose molar weight is 44.01 g/mole. By definition of molar mass, 1 mole of CO₂ has 44.01 g. So, the number of moles that 2.20 grams of the compound represent is calculated as:

$moles of CO_{2} =2.20 grams*\frac{1 mole}{44.01 grams}$

moles of CO₂= 0.05 moles

Now you must follow the following rule of three: if by stoichiometry of the reaction 6 moles of CO₂ produce 1 mole of C₆H₁₂O₆, 0.05 moles of CO₂ produce how many moles of C₆H₁₂O₆?

$moles of C_{6} H_{12} O_{6} =\frac{0.05moles of CO_{2} *1 mole of C_{6} H_{12} O_{6}}{6moles of CO_{2}}$

moles of C₆H₁₂O₆= 8.33*10⁻³

Being the molar mass of glucose 180.18 g/mole, the mass that 8.33*10⁻³ moles of the compound represent is calculated as:

$mass of glucose =8.33*10^{-3} moles*\frac{180.18 grams}{1 mole}$

mass of glucose= 1.5 grams

Then, 1.5 grams of glucose is produced from 2.20 g of CO₂.

Which system is not directly connected to itself

Nataliya [291]

Answer:

B) Digestive

Explanation:

The system is dependent in the digestive system because it sends the nutrients to the bones and this helps the bone growth and the repair. It can not be A. since the skeleton system is connected with the muscular system physically, this is to protect muscles and allow the skeletal muscles to make the bones move, so this system is connected with itself with the help of the muscular system! The endocrine is somewhat connected with the nervous system, they are both essential to the communication and response system. This eliminates A and C and leaves you with B!
