Answer:

  • <em>The maximum amount of copper allowed in 100 g of water is </em><u><em>0.00013 g</em></u>

Explanation:

To find the maximum amount of copper (in grams) allowed in 100 g of water use the maximum amount ratio (1.3 mg / kg)  and set a proportion with the unknown amount of copper (x) and the amount of water (100 g):

First, convert 100 g of water to kg: 100 g × 1 kg / 1000 g = 0.1 kg.

Now, set the proportion:

  • 1.3 mg Cu / 1 Kg H₂O = x / 0.1 kg H₂O

Solve for x:

  • x = 0.1 kg H₂O × 1.3 mg Cu / 1 kg H₂O = 0.13 mg Cu

Convert mg to grams:

  • 0.13 mg × 1 g / 1,000 mg = 0.00013 g

Answer: 0.00013 g of copper.

What force is causing The object to eventually stop moving
hichkok12 [17]

Answer:

Hey buddy, here is your answer. Hope it helps you.

Explanation:

The force stopping the object's motion might be an obvious one - the ground! Friction is a force that slows or stops motion. Friction is the resistance to motion created by two objects rubbing against each other (the sled and the snow, for instance). Even air causes friction.

50 POINTS!!!! Please Help I'm being timed and this would help so much! 50 POINTS!!!!

Answer:

[H⁺] = 1.0 x 10⁻¹² M.

Explanation:

∵ [H⁺][OH⁻] = 10⁻¹⁴.

[OH⁻] = 1 x 10⁻² mol/L.

∴ [H⁺] =  10⁻¹⁴/[OH⁻] = (10⁻¹⁴)/(1 x 10⁻² mol/L) = 1.0 x 10⁻¹² M.

∵ pH = - log[H⁺] = - log(1.0 x 10⁻¹² M) = 12.0.

∴ The solution is basic, since pH id higher than 7 and also the  [OH⁻] > [H⁺].

What is the molecular formula of a substance that decomposes into 1.33 g of h and 21.3 g of o, and was found to have a molar mas
Tema [17]
<span>H2O2 First, let's determine how many moles of hydrogen and oxygen atoms we have. Start by looking up the atomic weights of those elements: Atomic weight hydrogen = 1.00794 Atomic weight oxygen = 15.999 Moles hydrogen = 1.33 g / 1.00794 g/mol = 1.319522987 mol Moles oxygen = 21.3 g / 15.999 g/mol = 1.331333208 mol We now have a ratio of 1.319522987 : 1.331333208 and we want a ratio of small integers that is close. Start by dividing all the numbers in the ratio by the smallest value, giving: 1 : 1.008950371 This ratio is acceptably close to 1:1 so I assume the formula is of the form HnOn where n is a small integer. Let's initially assume that n is 1, so the mass would be 1.00794 + 15.999 = 17.00694 Obviously 17 is far smaller than 34.1. So let's divide 34.1 by 17.00694 and see what n should be: 34.1 / 17.00694 = 2.005063815 So the formula we want is H2O2, which is hydrogen peroxide.</span>
