First, 1 foot = 30.48cm (12 inches x 2.54 cm/inch=30.48 cm). So, 8,5 ft = 8.5 x 30.48cc=259.08 cm, 7.5 ft = 7.5 x 30.48=228.6cm and 9.5/12=0.791ft x 30.48 =24.11cm. So, in cc, 259.08 x 228.6 x 24.11 = 1,427,931.3 cc. Since 1 cc of water = 1 gram then we have 1,427,931`grams or 1427. 931 kg x 2.2 lbs/kg = 3141 pounds of water or 1.57 tonnes of water so with this size of waterbed if  upstairs the house structure must be able to withstand this stress.

Zinc phosphate is used as a dental cement. A 50.00-mg sample is broken down into its constituent elements and gives 16.58 mg oxy
cricket20 [7]

Answer:

Zn3P2O8

Explanation:

In this particular question, it is necessary to convert the respective masses to percentages. We convert to percentages by placing each mass over the total mass and multiplying by 100%. Since the total is 50mg, conversion to percentage can be done by multiplying the masses by 2 as 100/50 is 2

For Oxygen = 16.58 * 2 = 33.16%

For phosphorus = 8.02 * 2 = 16.04%

For zinc = 25.40 * 2 = 50.80%

We then proceed to divide these percentages by their respective atomic masses. The atomic mass of oxygen, phosphorus and zinc are 16, 31 and 65 respectively.

O = 33.16/16 = 2.0725

P = 16.04/31 = 0.5174

Zn = 50.80/65 = 0.7815

Now, we divide by the smallest value which is that of the phosphorus

O = 2.0725/0.5174 = 4

P = 0.5174/0.5174 = 1

Zn= 0.7815/0.5174 = 1.5

Now, we need to multiply through by 2. This yields: O = 8, P = 2 and Zn = 3

The empirical formula is thus: Zn3P2O8

Molecules can be either positively or negatively charged depending upon their elemental arrangement
Nuetrik [128]
They are positively or negatively charged based on their electrical configuration of electrons*
For example an electronic configuration of 2,8,3 would have a negative charge if +3 since it needs to lose 3 electrons to gain the electrical configuration of a noble gas
2,8,1 would have a charge of +1 for the same reason
2,8,6 would be -2 since it is easier to gain 2 electrons that lose 6 electrons

Hope this helped :))

Hydrogen has a volume of 1.0l and the pressure is 5.4 ATM if the initial temperature is 33 degrees c the final volume is 2.0 l a
Andre45 [30]

Answer:

487.33 K.

Explanation:

  • To calculate the no. of moles of a gas, we can use the general law of ideal gas: <em>PV = nRT.</em>

where, P is the pressure of the gas in atm.

V is the volume of the gas in L.

n is the no. of moles of the gas in mol.

R is the general gas constant.

T is the temperature of the gas in K.

  • If n is constant, and have two different values of (P, V and T):

<em>P₁V₁T₂ = P₂V₂T₁</em>

<em></em>

P₁ = 5.4 atm, V₁ = 1.0 L, T₁ = 33°C + 273 = 306 K.

P₂ = 4.3 atm, V₂ = 2.0 L, T₂ =??? K.

<em>∴ T₂ = P₂V₂T₁/P₁V₁</em> = (4.3 atm)(2.0 L)(306 K)/(5.4 atm)(1.0 L) = <em>487.33 K.</em>

What mass of H2O is produced by the combustion of 1.00 mol of CH4?
kkurt [141]
CH4 : H2O
1 : 2

number of moles of H2O = 1.00 x 2
number of moles of H2O = 2.00mol

mass = number of moles x molar mass

mass of H2O = 2.00 x (1 + 1 + 16)
mass of H2O = 36g
