Answer: There are 32400 moles of propane burned.

Explanation:

To calculate the mass of propane, we use the equation:

\text{Density of substance}=\frac{\text{Mass of substance}}{\text{Volume of substance}}

Density of propane = 4.2lb/gal

Volume of propane = 750 gal

Putting values in above equation, we get:

4.2lb/gal=\frac{\text{Mass of propane}}{750gal}\\\\\text{Mass of propane}=(4.2lb/gal\times 750gal)=3150lb=1428840g     (1 lb=453.6 g[/tex]

According to avogadro's law, 1 mole of every substance weighs equal to molecular mass and contains avogadro's number 6.023\times 10^{23} of particles.

To calculate the moles, we use the equation:

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text {Molar mass}}=\frac{1428840g}{44.1g/mol}=32400moles

Thus there are 32400 moles of propane burned.

nikdorinn [45]

Answer: Option (e) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Formula to calculate radius is as follows.

          p(r) = Ar(r^{2}e^{\frac{-r}{3a_{o}}}

                = Ar^{3}e^{\frac{-r}{3a_{o}}}

     \frac{dp(r)}{dr} = 0

            Ar^{3}e^{\frac{-r}{3a_{o}}}(\frac{-1}{3a_{o}} + Ae^{\frac{-r}{3a_{o}}}(3r^{2}) = 0

                     \frac{Ar^{3}}{3a_{o}}e^{\frac{-r}{3a_{o}}}

                      = 3Ar^{2}e^{\frac{-r}{3a_{o}}}

                       r = 9a_{o}

Thus, we can conclude that most likely radius at which the electron would be found is 9a_{o}.
