How does the Richter scale work? For 6th grade science

Chemistry

asambeis [7]3 years ago

T he Richter scale is used to rate the magnitude of an earthquake -- the amount of energy it released. This is calculated using information gathered by a seismograph. The Richter scale is logarithmic, meaning that whole-number jumps indicate a tenfold increase. In this case, the increase is in wave amplitude.

A certain liquid has a density of 2.67 g/cm3. 30.5 ml of this liquid would have a mass of __________ kg.
8090 [49]
Hey there!

Density = 2.67 g/cm³

volume = 30.5 mL

Mass = density *volume

Mass = 2.67 * 30.5

Mass = 81.435 g

Therefore:

Mass in kg :

1 kg -------------- 1000 g
?? ----------------- 81.435 g

mass = 81.435 * 1 / 1000

mass = 0.081435 kg

PLEAS HELP I HAVE LIMITED TIME!!
Burka [1]

Answer:

H2 is the limiting reactant.

Explanation:

From the diagram above:

H2 => White ball

O2 => Red ball

Before the reaction

H2 => White ball => 10

O2 => Red ball => 7

After the reaction

H2O => White and red ball => 10

O2 => 2

From the simple illustration above, we can see that all the H2 were used up in the reaction but there are left over of O2.

This simply means that H2 is the limiting reactant as all of it is used up in the reaction while O2 is the excess reactant as there are leftover.

Describe how a chemist should set up his or her stoichiometric calculation to predict the mass of CuSO4 that forms when a specif
DanielleElmas [232]
1) Calculate the number of moles of Cu SO4 . 5H20 by dividing the specified mass by the molar mass.

2) The ratio of production given by the equation is 1 mol of Cu SO4 . 5 H2O to 1 mol of Cu SO4=> 1:1, meaning that the number of moles of Cu SO4 produced is the same number of moles of Cu SO4.5H20 heated.

3) Finally mutiply the number of moles of Cu SO4 by its molar mass and there you have the mass of Cu SO4 produced.
