Read the speedometer and report the speed to the proper

Chemistry

Dmitry [639]3 years ago

Answer:

  • In miles per hour: 82 mph
  • In km/h: 121 km/h

Explanation:

The correct number of digits to report a measure include every certain digit plus one uncertain digit.

The speedometer has marks for:

  • every 2 km per hour, km/h. Because each small tick mark on the outer circle represents 2 mph.

  • every 10 miles per hour mph. Because each small tick mark on the inner scale represents 10 mph.

As a rule you can appreciate up to half way between two small tick marks.

So, for km/h you can appreciate half of 2 km/h, i.e. 1 km/h.

The needle is marking between 120 km/h and 122 km/h, which means that the correct measure is 121 km, where the two leftmost digits are certain and the ones digit is uncertain.

For mph, you can appreciate half of 10 mph, i.e. 5 mph. A measure between 80 and 90 mph should be read as 85 mph.

Furthermore, in this last case of mph, the space between two consecutive marks is broad and equal to 10 mph but also the needle is wide, so it is difficult to appreciate less than 5 mph.

The correct measure must have two significant digits: one certain and one uncertain. So, 82 mph is as correct as 85 mph, since the 8 is certain and the next number (either 2 or 5) is uncertain.

Inhalation is the process of taking air into the lungs. For this to occur, the air pressure inside the lungs must be lower than that of the external atmosphere as air flows from areas of higher pressure to lower pressure. <span>Exhalation is the process of expelling air out of the lungs.

34 atoms of carbon (C) react with 22 molecules of hydrogen gas (H2). How many molecules of methane (CH4) will be formed, and wha
kolbaska11 [484]

Answer:

11 molecules of CH4.

23 atoms of C is the leftover.

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, for the formation of methane:

C+2H_2\rightarrow CH_4

We can see there is an excess of carbon based on their stoichiometry, because the needed amount of hydrogen gas molecules would be:

molecules _{H_2}=34atomC*\frac{2molec\ H_2}{1atomC} =68molec\ H_2

Thus, the formed molecules of methane are computed below:

molec\ CH_4=22molec\ H_2 *\frac{1molec\ CH_4}{2molmolec\ H_2} \\\\molec\ CH_4=11molec\ CH_4

In such a way, the leftover of carbon atoms are:

atoms \ C^{left over}=34-22molec\ H_2*\frac{1atoms C}{2molec\ H_2} \\\\atoms \ C^{left over}=23 atoms C

Best regards!
