Answer: The chemical formula for dinitrogen tetraoxide is $N_{2}O_{4}$ . This is a covalent compound, therefore, it uses prefixes (e.g. di-, tetra-) to indicate the number of atoms of each element present in the compound.

Further Explanation:

Covalent compounds are compounds made up of two or more non-metal elements. Non-metals are those that appear to the right of the zigzag line on the Periodic Table of Elements. Ionic compounds, on the other hand, are compounds that are made up of metal and non-metal elements. Metals are the elements found to the left of the zigzag line on the Periodic Table. Naming of ionic and covalent compounds are different.

Dinitrogen tetraoxide is a covalent compound because it consists of nitrogen (N) and oxygen (O) atoms which are both non-metals.

The following prefixes added before the name of each element in a covalent compound:

di - 2

tri - 3

tetra - 4

penta - 5

hexa - 6

hepta - 7

octa - 8

nona - 9

deca - 10

The last part of the second element is changed to - IDE for binary compounds (compounds made up of only two types of atoms). If it is a ternary compound and one element is oxygen, the last part of the second element (other than oxygen) is changed to -ATE.

If a tube contains 2.0oz of sunscreen, how many kilograms of benzyl salicylate are needed to manufacture 325 tubes of sunscreen

Vadim26 [7]

Answer:

Now it is given here that there are 325 tubes that are manufactured for sunscreen. And we also know that the percentage of sunscreen in benzyl salicylate is 2.5% here in one tube we have 2 Oz of sunscreen.

Explanation:

So sunscreen in 325 tubes will be 2 x 325= 650 Oz. Since we know the amount of sunscreen in 325 tubes the amount of Benzyl salicylate in all 325 tubes will be 650 x 0.025 = 16.25 Oz

Now this can be converted into kg as 0.46 kg.

2. (Exercise 4.1.6) A liquid adhesive consists of a polymer dissolved in a solvent. The amount of polymer in the solution is imp

Lilit [14]

Answer:

800 lb of pure solvent , 1700 lb of 20% solution and 500 lb of 10% solution will be mixed to form 3000 lb of 13 % solution .

Explanation:

3000 lb of 13% solution is required .

Total adhesive in weight = 3000 x .13 = 390 lb of adhesive

Available = 500 lb of 10% solution = 50 lb of adhesive

Rest = 390 - 50 = 340 lb required .

rest mass of solution = 3000 - 500 = 2500 lb

mass of adhesive required = 340 lb

Let the mass of 20% required be V

mass of adhesive = .20 V

.20 V = 340

V = 1700

rest of the volume = 2500 - 1700 = 800 lb which will be of pure solvent

So 800 lb of pure solvent , 1700 lb of 20% solution and 500 lb of 10% solution will be mixed to form 3000 lb of 13 % solution .

Which statement below best describes mutations?

Studentka2010 [4]

Answer:

C. Mutations are a change in DNA or a chromosome and can be helpful, harmful or may have no affect.

Explanation:

Mutations are spontaneous random changes that occurs in the genetic make up of an organisms. Mutations are rare and their rate of occurrence is random.
Mutations may occur on the gene level known as gene mutations or at chromosome levels called chromosomal mutations.
Mutations may be beneficial, harmful or have no effect on a given organisms. Harmful mutations cause disorders that may lead to abnormality or death of an organisms. Beneficial mutations improve an organisms adaptability to the environment.
