Describe and explain how petrol is separated from the mixture of hydrocarbons in crude oil.

lara31 [8.8K]

The crude oil is heated in a process of fractional distillation (note: you can research this online if you require more detail) and this process causes different hydrocarbons to condense at different heights up the distillation column. They will therefore run down the side of the column and into different areas depending on their boiling point.

I need help please, thanks!

Answer:

This question is somehow not clear, because a typical human eye can notice objects which have wavelengths from about 380 to 740 nanometers. This is called visible spectrum (the portion of the electromagnetic spectrum that is visible to the human eye). Electromagnetic radiation in this range of wavelengths is called visible light or simply light.

Someone even can see extra colors - they able to see beyond the visible spectrum. The reason that the human eye can see the spectrum is because those specific wavelengths stimulate the retina in the human eye. The human retina can only detect incident light that falls in waves from about 380 to 740 nanometers long, so we can’t see microwave or ultraviolet wavelengths. This also applies to infrared lights which has wavelengths longer than visible and shorter than microwaves, thus being invisible to the human eye.

In conclusion, the human eye can not notice that objects with wavelength not in the range of 380 to 740 nanometers.

A 312 g sample of a metal is heated to 277.845 °C and plunged into 200 g of water at a temperature of 11.945 °C. The final tempe

tigry1 [53]

Answer:

The specific heat capacity of the metal is 1.307 J/g °C

Explanation:

<u>Step 1:</u> Data given

mass of the metal = 312 grams

initial temperature of the metal ( before plunged in the water) = 277.845 °C

initial temperature water = 11.945 °C

Final temperature of water (and aslo the metal) = 99.062 °C

Specific heat capacity of wayer = 4.184 J/g °C

<u>Step 2:</u> Calculate the specifi heat capacity of the metal

Loss of Heat of the Metal = Gain of Heat by the Water

Qmetal = -Qwater

m(metal) * C(metal) * ΔT(metal) = - m(water) * C(water) * ΔT(water)

with mass of metal = 312 grams

with C(metal) = TO BE DETERMINED

with ΔT (metal) = 99.062 - 277.845 = -178.783 °C

with mass of water = 200 grams

with C(water) = 4.184 J/°C * g

with ΔT (water) = 99.062 - 11.945 = 87.117 °C

312 * C(metal) * -178.783 = - 200* 4.184 * 87.117

C(metal) = -72899.51 / 55780.296 = 1.307

The specific heat capacity of the metal is 1.307 J/g °C

What is the mass of 4.5 moles of Cu(NO3)2?

Tatiana [17]

Answer:

The mass of 4.5 moles of Cu(NO3)2 is 843.55g

Explanation:

Mass = moles x Molar mass

Mass = 4.50(187.55)

= 843.97g

Calculate the ph of a mixture that contains 0.18 m of hno3 and 0.24 m of hbro

Kobotan [32]

HNO3 is a strong acid while HBrO is weak acid.
Therefore we ignore the presence of the weak acid such that we consider the pH of the strong acid.
Therefore; since pH= - log (H+)
Hence pH= -log 0.18
= 0.745
Thus the pH of the mixture is 0.745
