Speed is calculated using the formula distance divided by time. For a distance of 26.2 miles, and a time of 3 hours and 40 minutes, we first convert the time to make it solely in terms of hours. 40 minutes is 2/3 of an hour, so this is a total time of 3 2/3 or 11/3 hours. If we divide 26.2 miles by 11/3 hours, we get a resulting speed of 7.14 miles/hour.

A sample of carbon dioxide at RTP is 0.50 dm3. How many grams of carbon dioxide do we have?
prohojiy [21]

Answer:

0.924 g

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

Volume of CO2 at RTP = 0.50 dm³

Mass of CO2 =?

Next, we shall determine the number of mole of CO2 that occupied 0.50 dm³ at RTP (room temperature and pressure). This can be obtained as follow:

1 mole of gas = 24 dm³ at RTP

Thus,

1 mole of CO2 occupies 24 dm³ at RTP.

Therefore, Xmol of CO2 will occupy 0.50 dm³ at RTP i.e

Xmol of CO2 = 0.5 /24

Xmol of CO2 = 0.021 mole

Thus, 0.021 mole of CO2 occupied 0.5 dm³ at RTP.

Finally, we shall determine the mass of CO2 as follow:

Mole of CO2 = 0.021 mole

Molar mass of CO2 = 12 + (2×16) = 13 + 32 = 44 g/mol

Mass of CO2 =?

Mole = mass /Molar mass

0.021 = mass of CO2 /44

Cross multiply

Mass of CO2 = 0.021 × 44

Mass of CO2 = 0.924 g.

Which statement best describes the organelles in a cell
Bas_tet [7]

Answer:

(2) Organelles must work together and their

activities must be coordinated

Explanation:

Organelles are usually located in cells. They are saddled with the role of performing specific functions in the cells for the overall functioning of life. In eukaryotic cells, the organelles are membrane bounded but in prokaryotic or primitive cells such is not the case.

Examples of cell organelles are ribosome, food vacuole, nucleus e.t.c. Just like organs in the body, organelles must work together in order to enhance life.
