What is your standing regarding compostable plastics? Is it really environmental-friendly?​

Chemistry
1 answer:
Archy [21]3 years ago
6 0

If a biodegradable plastic or bioplastic ends up in a landfill site it will never decompose. In landfill sites waste is essentially mummified, in a complete absence of light and oxygen. Food that has ended up in landfill will not biodegrade, so there is no hope for biodegradable plastics or even bioplastics.So it is bad.

A 52.0 g of Copper (specific heat=0.0923cal/gC) at 25.0C is warmed by the addition of 299 calories of energy. find the final tem
Leto [7]

Answer : The final temperature of the copper is, 87.29^oC

Solution :

Formula used :

Q=m\times c\times \Delta T=m\times c\times (T_{final}-T_{initial})

where,

Q = heat gained  = 299 cal

m = mass of copper = 52 g

c = specific heat of copper = 0.0923cal/g^oC      

\Delta T=\text{Change in temperature} 

T_{final} = final temperature = ?

T_{initial} = initial temperature = 25^oC

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get the final temperature of copper.

299cal=52g\times 0.0923cal/g^oC\times (T_{final}-25^oC)

T_{final}=87.29^oC

Therefore, the final temperature of the copper is, 87.29^oC

How many moles of water are produced when 3.45 moles of KMnO4 react? Give your answer to the nearest 0.1 moles. moles H2O
andrew11 [14]

Answer:

13.8 moles of water produced.

Explanation:

Given data:

Moles of KMnO₄ = 3.45 mol

Moles of water = ?

Solution:

Chemical equation:

16HCl + 2KMnO₄ → 2KCl + 2MnCl₂ + 5Cl₂ + 8H₂O

Moler ratio of water and KMnO₄:

             KMnO₄       :        H₂O

                2             :          8

               3.45         :         8/2×3.45 = 13.8 mol

Hence, 3.45 moles of KMnO₄ will produced 13.8 mol of water.
