Radio waves travel at the speed of light which is 3.00 x 10^8. How many minutes does it take for a radio message to reach saturn
ryzh [129]

Answer:

43.89 min

Explanation:

Given that:-

The speed of light = 3.00\times 10^8\ m/s

The distance = 7.9\times 10^8\ km

The conversion of distance in km to distance into m is shown below as:-

1 km = 1000 m

So,

Distance = 7.9\times 10^8\times 1000\ m=7.9\times 10^{11}\ m

The relation between speed distance and time is shown below as:-

Speed=\frac{Distance}{Time}

Thus,

3.00\times 10^8=\frac{7.9\times 10^{11}}{Time}

300000000\times time=10^{11}\times \:7.9\ s

Time = 2633.33 seconds

Also, 1 s = 1/60 min

So,

Time=\frac{2633.33}{60}\ min=43.89\ min

According to the Law of Conservation of Mass, how much water is produced if 22.5 g of
nadezda [96]

Answer: The amount of water produced is 9.3 grams

Explanation:

According to the law of conservation of mass, mass can neither be created nor be destroyed. Thus the mass of products has to be equal to the mass of reactants. The number of atoms of each element has to be same on reactant and product side. Thus chemical equations are balanced.

CH_4+2O_2\rightarrow CO_2+2H_2O

mass of reactants = mass of methane + mass of oxygen = 22.5 g + 35.7 g = 58.2 g

mass of products = mass of carbon dioxide + mass of water = 48.9 g +  mass of water

48.9 g +  mass of water = 58.2 g

mass of water = 9.3 g

3. What mass of copper could be deposited from a copper(II) Sulphate solution using a current of 5.0 A over 100 seconds? ( F =96
arsen [322]

Mass of copper : 0.165 g

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

5.0 A over 100 seconds

Required

Mass of copper

Solution

Faraday's law:

<em>The mass of the substance formed at each electrode is proportional to the electric current flowing in the electrolysis</em>

<em />\tt W=\dfrac{e.i.t}{96500}<em />

e = Ar / valence = eqivalent weight

i = current

t = time

W = weight

CuSO₄ ----> Cu²⁺ + SO₄²⁻

Cu ----> Cu²⁺ + 2e

e = Ar/2

= 63,5/2 = 31,75

\tt W=\dfrac{31.75\times 5\times 100}{96500}=0.165~g

Calculate the electric double layer thickness of a alumina colloid in a dilute (0.1 mol/dm3) CsCI electrolyte solution at 30 °C.
Ad libitum [116K]

Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

    Concentration = 0.1 mol/dm^{3}

                             = 0.1 \frac{mol dm^{3}}{dm^{3}} \frac{10^{3}}{dm^{3}} \times \frac{6.022 \times 10^{23}}{1 mol} ions

                             = 6.022 \times 10^{25} ions/m^{3}

               T = 30^{o}C = (30 + 273) K = 303 K

Formula for electric double layer thickness (\lambda_{D}) is as follows.

            \lambda_{D} = \frac{1}{k} = \sqrt \frac{\varepsilon \varepsilon_{o} K_{g}T}{2 n^{o} z^{2} \varepsilon^{2}}

where, n^{o} = concentration = 6.022 \times 10^{25} ions/m^{3}

Hence, putting the given values into the above equation as follows.

                 \lambda_{D} = \sqrt \frac{\varepsilon \varepsilon_{o} K_{g}T}{2 n^{o} z^{2} \varepsilon^{2}}                    

                          = \sqrt \frac{78 \times 8.854 \times 10^{-12} c^{2}/Jm \times 1.38 \times 10^{-23}J/K \times 303 K}{2 \times 6.022 \times 10^{25} ions/m^{3} \times (1)^{2} \times (1.6 \times 10^{-19}C)^{2}}  

                         = 9.669 \times 10^{-10} m

or,                     = 9.7 A^{o}

                          = 1 nm (approx)

Also, it is known that \lambda_{D} = \sqrt \frac{1}{n^{o}}

Hence, we can conclude that addition of 0.1 mol/dm^{3} of KCl in 0.1 mol/dm^{3} of NaBr "\lambda_{D}" will decrease but not significantly.
