Answer : The diameter in meters is, 5.5\times 10^{-9}m

Explanation :

As we are given that the diameter of red blood cells is, 5.5 nm. Now we have to convert it into meter.

The conversion used from nanometer to meter is:

1nm=10^{-9}m

As, 1nm=10^{-9}m

So, 5.5nm=\frac{5.5nm}{1nm}\times 10^{-9}m=5.5\times 10^{-9}m

Thus, the diameter in meters is, 5.5\times 10^{-9}m

What mass of KNO3 would be needed to produce 18.4 liters of oxygen gas, measured at 1.50 x 10^3 kPa and 15 degrees Celsius?
Brut [27]

Answer:-

2328.454 grams

Explanation:-

Volume V = 18.4 litres

Temperature T = 15 C + 273 = 288 K

Pressure P = 1.5 x 10^ 3 KPa

We know universal Gas constant R = 8.314 L KPa K-1 mol-1

Using the relation PV = nRT

Number of moles of oxygen gas n = PV / RT

Plugging in the values

n = (1.5 x 10^3 KPa ) x ( 18.4 litres ) / ( 8.314 L KPa K-1 mol-1 x 288 K)

n = 11.527 mol

Now the balanced chemical equation for this reaction is

2KNO3 --> 2KNO2 + O2

From the equation we can see that

1 mol of O2 is produced from 2 mol of KNO3.

∴ 11.527 mol of O2 is produced from 2 x 11.527 mol of KNO3.

= 23.054 mol of KNO3

Molar mass of KNO3 = 39 x 1 + 14 x 1 + 16 x 3 = 101 grams / mol

Mass of KNO3 = 23.054 mol x 101 gram / mol

= 2328.454 grams

bija089 [108]

Answer:

Volume is often measured numerically using the International System of Units (SI unit), the cubic meter. for example volume of a cube is measured using a cubic centimeter (cm3), the metric system includes the liter (L) as a unit of volume, where one liter is the volume of a 10-centimeter cube.
