Answer:

  0.64 kW

Explanation:

The potential energy of a mass (M) at some height (h) is computed from ...

  PE = Mgh

At 1 kg/liter, the available power is the rate at which that energy is available ...

  (490 kg/min)×(1 min/(60 s))×(9.8 m/s²)(8 m) ≈ 640.3 kg·m²/s³

  = 640.3 W

In kilowatts, that is 0.64 kW.

A student placed 18.5 g of glucose (C6H12O6) in a volumetric flask, added enough water to dissolve the glucose by swirling, then
mamaluj [8]

Answer:

1.30464 grams of glucose was present in 100.0 mL of final solution.

Explanation:

Molarity=\frac{moles}{\text{Volume of solution(L)}}

Moles of glucose = \frac{18.5 g}{180 g/mol}=0.1028 mol

Volume of the solution = 100 mL = 0.1 L (1 mL = 0.001 L)

Molarity of the solution = \frac{0.1028 mol}{0.1 L}=1.028 mol/L

A 30.0 mL sample of above glucose solution was diluted to 0.500 L:

Molarity of the solution before dilution = M_1=1.208 mol

Volume of the solution taken = V_1=30.0 mL

Molarity of the solution after dilution = M_2

Volume of the solution after dilution= V_2=0.500L = 500 mL

M_1V_1=M_2V_2

M_2=\frac{M_1V_1}{V_2}=\frac{1.208 mol/L\times 30.0 mL}{500 mL}

M_2=0.07248 mol/L

Mass glucose are in 100.0 mL of the 0.07248 mol/L glucose solution:

Volume of solution = 100.0 mL = 0.1 L

0.07248 mol/L=\frac{\text{moles of glucose}}{0.1 L}

Moles of glucose = 0.07248 mol/L\times 0.1 L=0.007248 mol

Mass of 0.007248 moles of glucose :

0.007248 mol × 180 g/mol = 1.30464 grams

1.30464 grams of glucose was present in 100.0 mL of final solution.

Crazy boy [7]

Answer:

3.94 L

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Mass of O₂ = 5.62 g

Volume of O₂ =?

Next, we shall determine the number of mole present in 5.62 g of O₂. This can be obtained as follow:

Mass of O₂ = 5.62 g

Molar mass of O₂ = 2 × 16 = 32 g/mol

Mole of O₂ =?

Mole = mass / molar mass

Mole of O₂ = 5.62 / 32

Mole of O₂ = 0.176 mole

Finally, we shall determine the volume of 5.62 g (i.e 0.176 mole) of O₂ at STP. This can be obtained as follow:

1 mole of O₂ occupied 22.4 L at STP.

Therefore, 0.176 mole of O₂ will occupy = 0.176 × 22.4 = 3.94 L at STP.

Thus 5.62 g (i.e 0.176 mole) of O₂ occupied 3.94 L at STP

Use this information to determine the number of valence electrons in the atoms. Which of the following correctly compares the st
vlabodo [156]

The question is incomplete. The complete question is :

The table compares the number of electrons in two unknown neutral atoms.

Comparison of Electrons

Atom Number of Electrons

A 9

D 11

Use this information to determine the number of valence electrons in the atoms. Which of the following correctly compares the stability of the two atoms?

A. Both are unreactive.

B. Both are highly reactive.

C. A is unreactive and D is reactive.

D. A is reactive and D is unreactive.

Answer:

B. Both are highly reactive.

Explanation:

Atomic number of electrons given is 9 and 11, it means that atom A is fluorine (F) and atom D is Sodium (Na).

In order to gain stability 8 electrons are required in outer shell. So atoms either gain or lose electrons in its outer shell to become more reactive.

Sodium has electronic configuration (2,8,1)  and easily loses one electron and become  (2, 8) which is highly reactive.

Fluorine has electronic configuration (2, 7) and can gain easily an electron and becomes reactive to form (2, 8).

So, both they both attain stability by losing and gaining only one electron.

Hence, they both are highly reactive and the correct option is B.
