An empty beaker weighs 20g and when filled with
Sphinxa [80]

Answer: The density of kerosene is 2.7g/cm^3

Explanation:

Density is defined as the mass contained per unit volume.

Density=\frac{mass}{Volume}

Given : Mass of kerosene = mass of beaker with kerosene - mass of empty beaker = 60 g - 20 g = 40 g

Volume of kersone = 15cm^3

Putting in the values we get:

Density=\frac{40g}{15cm^3}

Density=2.7g/cm^3  

Thus the density of kerosene is 2.7g/cm^3

Suppose you have an Avogadro's number of nitrogen atoms. How many grams does this represent? Enter your answer to one decimal pl
shusha [124]

Answer:

2.3 x 10-23 g.

Explanation:

The mass of a single atom is the mass number, 14, is the mass in grams of one mole of carbon.

One mole of Nitrogen atom is 6.022 x 1023 atoms (Avogadro's number). This can then used to convert a nitogen atom to grams by the ratio:

mass of 1 atom / 1 atom = mass of a mole of atoms / 6.022 x 10^23 atoms.

mass of 1 atom = mass of a mole of atoms / 6.022 x 1023

mass of 1 N atom = 14 / 6.022 x 10^23 N atoms

mass of 1 N atom = 2.325 x 10^-23 g

The mass of a single Nitrogen atom is 2.325 x 10-23 g.

At what temperature would a 1.30 m NaCl solution freeze, given that the van't Hoff factor for NaCl is 1.9? Kf for water is 1.86
Setler [38]

Answer:

-4.59°C

Explanation:

Let's see the formula for freezing point depression.

ΔT = Kf . m . i

ΔT = Freezing T° of pure solvent - Freezing T° of solution

Kf = Freezing constant. For water if 1.86°C/m

m = molality (moles of solute in 1kg of solvent)

i = Van't Hoff factor.

0°C - Freezing T° of solution = 1.86°C /m . 1.30m . 1.9

Freezing T° of solution = - (1.86°C /m . 1.30m . 1.9)

Freezing T° of solution = - (1.86°C/m .  1.30m . 1.9) → -4.59°C

NaCl →  Na⁺  +  Cl⁻

A defibrillator delivers about 300 joules per shock calculate the number of calories
Tanya [424]

Answer:- 71.7 calories

Solution:- it is a unit conversion problem where we need to convert joules into calories.

The unit conversion for these energy units is:

1 calorie = 4.184 joule

The given energy is 300 joules and has to be converted to calories. We will show the set up using dimensional analysis.

300joules(\frac{1calorie}{4.184joules})

= 71.7 calories

So, the energy in calories is 71.7.

Write the net ionic equation for the equilibrium that is established when potassium hypochlorite is dissolved in water.
oee [108]
Potassium hypochlorite when dissolved in water would dissociate into ions namely the potassium ions and the hypochlorite ions. Furthermore, hypochlorite ions would interact with water molecules and would decompose further. The dissociation reactions are as follows:

KClO <=> K+ + ClO-
ClO- + H2O <=> HOCl + OH-

Adding the two reactions, would give

KClO + ClO- + H2O = K+ + HOCl + OH- + ClO- 

The two ClO- ions in both sides would cancel giving us the net ionic equation:

KClO + H2O = K+ + HOCl + OH-
