Consider the market for paper. Let market demand be given by inverse demand function P d (Q) = 60 − Q, where Q is tons of paper

MakcuM [25]

Answer:

See explaination

Explanation:

Demand for paper is given below:

P(Q)=60-Q,

Number of paper mills=20

The cost curve for firm is given below:

C(Q)=10Q2

The external cost in terms of pollution down river by production of paper is given below:

EC(Q)=10Q2

a. The optimal level of paper production by market can be calcuated by equating MC=P

20Q=P

Q=P/20

b. The optimal level of paper production by market can be calcuated by equating MC=P.

MC=20Q

60-(20Q)=20Q

Q=60/40

Q=1.5

Total quanity by 20 firms will be 1.5*20=30

c. The socially efficient level of paper output is calcuated below:

MC+EC'=20Q+20Q

60-(20Q)=40Q

Q=60/60

Q=1

Total quanity by 20 firms will be 1*20=20

The price will be P=60-20=40

d, The deadweight loss occurs as market price increases and quantity decreases due to the external cost . The deadweight loss is calcuated below:

DWL=(1/2)*change in price* change in quantity

=(1/2)*10*10=50

e. 20 firms merged into one firm to make monopoly firm. The cost function for the monopoly is given below:

Cm(Q)=20*10(Q/20)2

The marginal cost for the monopoly firm will be

MCm=Q

The marginal revenue for the firm is 60-2Q

For optimal output MR is equated to MC

60-2Q=Q

Q=20

P=40.

The monopoly outcome is below the perfect competition outcome and price is higher in comparison to perfect competition. The monopoly outcome is same as socially efficient outcome.

The total surplus for this outcome is sum of consumer surplus and producer surplus and subtraction of external cost

TS=CS+PS-EC

=(1/2)*20*20+(1/2)*40*20-10(20)2

=600-4000=-3400

Due to the external effects the total surplus to the society is negative. In perfect competition this effect is not considered and output produced is high therefore, the external cost will be higher with higher output leading to higher negative social surplus. Generally the monopoly outcome reduces the total social surplus but in case of externality, the monopoly total surplus is higher than the perfect competition.

What is the role of an indicator in an acid-base titration? In your answer, identify how an appropriate indicator is chosen and

Anton [14]

An indicator shows where the endpoint of a titration is. Different indicators will change colors at different equivalence points. Phenolphthalein will change colors at around pH7.5 or so, and others like Methylene Blue will change around a pH of 6. Different titrations will have different pH's at different equivalence points.

What is the change in atomic number when an atom emits a beta particle?

salantis [7]

When an atom emits a beta particle from the nucleus, the nucleus only has one more proton and one less neutron and this will make the atomic mass number remains unchanged while the atomic number increases by 1.

The compound known as diethyl ether, commonly referred to as ether, contains carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen. A 1.751 g sample of e

fredd [130]

<u>Answer:</u> The empirical formula for the given compound is $C_{4}H_{10}O$

<u>Explanation:</u>

The chemical equation for the combustion of ether follows:

$C_xH_yO_z+O_2\rightarrow CO_2+H_2O$

where, 'x', 'y' and 'z' are the subscripts of carbon, hydrogen and oxygen respectively.

We are given:

Mass of $CO_2=4.159g$

Mass of $H_2O=2.128g$

Mass of sample = 1.751 g

We know that:

Molar mass of carbon dioxide = 44 g/mol

Molar mass of water = 18 g/mol

<u>For calculating the mass of carbon:</u>

In 44 g of carbon dioxide, 12 g of carbon is contained.

So, in 4.159 g of carbon dioxide, $\frac{12}{44}\times 4.159=1.134g$ of carbon will be contained.

<u>For calculating the mass of hydrogen:</u>

In 18 g of water, 2 g of hydrogen is contained.

So, in 2.128 g of water, $\frac{2}{18}\times 2.128=0.236g$ of hydrogen will be contained.

Mass of oxygen in the compound = (1.751) - (1.134 + 0.236) = 0.381 g

To formulate the empirical formula, we need to follow some steps:

<u>Step 1:</u> Converting the given masses into moles.

Moles of Carbon = $\frac{\text{Given mass of Carbon}}{\text{Molar mass of Carbon}}=\frac{1.134g}{12g/mole}=0.0945moles$

Moles of Hydrogen = $\frac{\text{Given mass of Hydrogen}}{\text{Molar mass of Hydrogen}}=\frac{0.236g}{1g/mole}=0.236moles$

Moles of Oxygen = $\frac{\text{Given mass of oxygen}}{\text{Molar mass of oxygen}}=\frac{0.381g}{16g/mole}=0.0238moles$

<u>Step 2:</u> Calculating the mole ratio of the given elements.

For the mole ratio, we divide each value of the moles by the smallest number of moles calculated which is 0.0238 moles.

For Carbon = $\frac{0.0945}{0.0238}=3.97\approx 4$

For Hydrogen = $\frac{0.236}{0.0238}=9.91\approx 10$

For Oxygen = $\frac{0.0238}{0.0238}=1$

<u>Step 3:</u> Taking the mole ratio as their subscripts.

The ratio of C : H : O = 4 : 10 : 1

Hence, the empirical formula for the given compound is $C_{4}H_{10}O$

How is sonoluminescence similar to what we see in fireworks?

aalyn [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

Sonoluminescence is a phenomenon in which small gas bubbles burst to produce light when intense sound wave is introduced. Thus, it can be said that sound energy is converted to light energy here. This is similar to the process of how fire crackers work except that sonoluminescence occurs in a liquid medium while firecrackers work in solid media. In firecrackers, when the tip is lit with fire, the initial explosion is caused by the expansion of some nitrogen and carbon present in some constituent compounds, this explosion produces heat which causes some other constituent chemicals in the firecracker to quickly react and produce light. Thus, this can also be said to convert sound energy to light energy and are thus similar to what occurs in sonoluminescence.
