Answer:

4 people

Explanation:

In order to know this, we need to gather the data.

First we have 3.5x10⁴ g of LiOH. This grams are to be last for the whole 9 days mission shuttle.

So, we first need to know how much of CO₂ will be neutralized by this mass. This can be done calculating the moles of LiOH, and then, the moles of CO₂

The molecular weight of LiOH is 23.94 g/mol and for CO₂ is 44 g/mol so:

CO₂ + 2LiOH -------> Li₂CO₃ + H₂O

moles of LiOH = 3.5x10⁴ / 23.94 = 1461.988 moles

We have a mole ratio of 1:2 so the moles of CO₂:

moles CO₂ = 1461.988 / 2 = 730.994 moles

The mass of CO₂ for the 9 days will be:

m CO₂ = 730.994 * 44 = 32163.74 g

Now, let's see how much it has to be used per day:

m CO₂/d = 32163.74 / 9 = 3573.75 g per day

This means that we can only take a few astronauts, and this number is:

n° astronaut = 3573.75 / 8.8x10²

<h2>n° astronaut = 4.06</h2><h2>In other words, only 4 astronaut</h2>

the mass of a liquid is 11.50 g and its volume is 9.03 mL. How many significant figures should its density value have?
BlackZzzverrR [31]

Answer:

3

Explanation:

The mass has 4 sig digits.

The volume has 3 sig digits

The density is = 11.50/9.03 = 1.2735

To 3 sig digits (determined by 9.03) the answer would be 1.27 gram/mL

How many gram-atoms are in 120-gram sample of calcium metal? How many atoms is this?
Elden [556K]
(sample g/1) X (1 mole/40.078(MW of Ca)) = moles of sample (moles of sample)(6.022 x 10^23( no of atoms)/ 1 mole) = # of atoms in a 120 g sample of calcium Avogadro's number=6.022x 10^23 atoms in 1 mole

The standard free energy of activation of one reaction A is 95.00 kJ mol–1 (22.71 kcal mol–1). The standard free energy of activ
diamong [38]

Answer:

The answer to the questions are as follows

Reaction B is 4426.28 times faster than reaction A

(b) Reaction B is faster.

Explanation:

To solve the question we are meant to compare both reactions to see which one is faster

The values of the given activation energies are as follows

For A

Ea = 95.00 kJ mol–1 (22.71 kcal mol–1) and

for  B

Ea = 74.20 kJ mol–1 (17.73 kcal mol–1)

T is the same for both reactions and is equal to 298 k

Concentration of both reaction = 1M

The Arrhenius Law is given by

k = Ae^{\frac{-E_{a} }{RT} }

Where

k = rate constant

Ea = activation energy

R = universal gas constant

T = temperature  (Kelvin )

A = Arrhenius factor

Therefore

For reaction A, the rate constant k₁ is given by k₁ = Ae^{\frac{-95000}{(8.314)(298)} }

And for B the rate constant k₂ is given by k₂ = Ae^{\frac{-74200 }{(8.314)(298)} }

k₁ = A×2.225×10⁻¹⁷

k₂ = A×9.850×10⁻¹⁴

As seen from the above Reaction B is faster than reaction A by (A×9.850×10⁻¹⁴)/(A×2.225×10⁻¹⁷) or 4426.28 times
