A mysterious white powder is found at a crime scene. A simple chemical analysis concludes that the powder is a mixture of sugar

and morphine (C17H19NO3), a weak base similar to ammonia. The crime lab takes 10.00 mg of the mysterious white powder, dissolves it in 100.00 mL water, and titrates it to the equivalence point with 2.84 mL of a standard 0.0100 M HCl solution. What is the percentage of morphine in the white powder?
a. 8.10%
b. 17.3%
c. 32.6%
d. 49.7%
e. 81.0%

Answer:

e. 81.0%

Explanation:

Morphine has Molar mass = 285.34 g/mol

Also, number of males of Morphine = Number of moles of HCl

(At equivalence point )

Now, number of moles of HCl = Molarity × volume

=0.01 mol × 2.84×10^(-3) L

= 2.84×10^(-5) mol

therefore number of moles of morphine= 2.85×10^(-5)

Mass of Morphine= No. of moles × molar mass

= 2.84×10^(-5)×285.34 g/mol

= 0.0081 g

= 8.1 mg

therefore

percentage of morphine = mass of morphine/ mass of powder×100%

= 8.1/10×100% = 81.0%

hence option e is correct.

The discovery of the atomic nucleus, or perhaps better stated the development of theory of the nucleus, is credited to Ernest Ru
Greeley [361]

Answer:

Both of the studies said that the mass of the atom is centered in the nucleus, which is positive, and there are electrons (negative particles) orbiting it. So, Rutheford and Nagaoka discovered that the atom can be divisible and it has an empty space.

But, in the model of Nagaoka, the nucleus was huge, and for Rutherford, the nucleus was really small, and the mass was concentrated. By his experiment with the gold sheets, the theory was appropriated. That's why Rutherford is credited with the discovery of the nucleus. Nagaoka was incorrect in his suppositions.

Brenda rode a skateboard 95 meters west. It took her 20 seconds. What was
Artemon [7]

Answer:

D. 4.75 m/s west

Explanation:

You can immediately get the answer once you know the formula for<em> velocity.</em>

  • The formula for velocity is: Velocity (V) = \frac{distance (d)}{time (t)}

The distance is 95 meters while the time is 20 seconds. All you have to do is to divide <u>95 meters by 20 seconds</u>.

Let's solve:

  • V = \frac{d}{t}
  • V = \frac{95 meters}{20 seconds}
  • V = 4.75 meters per second

Since Brenda is going west with her her skateboard, then you have to add <em>west </em>as her direction.

Brenda's velocity is 4.75 m/s west.
