Hello there!

The answer is 92000 tons per year

The palmetto landfill supplies methane (CH₄) for the BMW plant there. The gas is used to operate the turbines used to power the BMW campus. It reduces carbon dioxide emissions because the combustion of methane produces fewer CO₂ than the combustion of other gases like propane or butane, which are commonly used for powering turbines.

Which is a saturated solution?
ser-zykov [4K]

Answer:

C)52g KCl in 100g water at 80°C

Explanation:

A saturated solution is one that contains as much solute as it can dissolve in the presence of excess solute at that particular temperature.

A solutibility curve is a graph that shows the variability with temperature of the solubility of a solute in a given solvent. A solutibility curve can provide information of whether a solution formed frommthe solute and solvent are saturated or not at a given temperature.

From the solubility curve in the attachment below:

A) A saturated solution of NH₄Cl will contain about 52 g solute per 100 g sat 50 °C. Thus, a solution of 40 g NH₄Cl in 100 g water at 50 °C is an unsaturated solution.

B) A saturated solution of SO₂ at 10°C will contain about 70 g of solute in 100 g of water. Thus a solution of 2g SO₂ in 100g water at 10°C is an unsaturated solution.

C) A saturated solution of KCl at 80 °C will contain about 52 g of solute in 100 g of water. Thus, a solution of 52g KCl in 100g water at 80°C is a saturated solution.

D) A saturated solution of Kl at 20 °C will contain about 145 g of solute in 100 g of water. Thus, a solution of 120g KI in 100g water at 20°C is an unsaturated solution.

Consider 100.0 g samples of two different compounds consisting only of carbon and oxygen. One compound contains 27.2 g of carbon
Pani-rosa [81]

<u>Answer:</u> The ratio of carbon in both the compounds is 1 : 2

<u>Explanation:</u>

Law of multiple proportions states that when two elements combine to form two or more compounds in more than one proportion. The mass of one element that combine with a given mass of the other element are present in the ratios of small whole number. For Example: Cu_2O\text{ and }CuO

  • <u>For Sample 1:</u>

Total mass of sample = 100 g

Mass of carbon = 27.2 g

Mass of oxygen = (100 - 27.7) = 72.8 g

To formulate the formula of the compound, we need to follow some steps:

  • <u>Step 1:</u> Converting the given masses into moles.

Moles of Carbon =\frac{\text{Given mass of Carbon}}{\text{Molar mass of Carbon}}=\frac{27.2g}{12g/mole}=2.26moles

Moles of Oxygen = \frac{\text{Given mass of oxygen}}{\text{Molar mass of oxygen}}=\frac{72.8g}{16g/mole}=4.55moles

  • <u>Step 2:</u> Calculating the mole ratio of the given elements.

For the mole ratio, we divide each value of the moles by the smallest number of moles calculated which is 2.26 moles.

For Carbon = \frac{2.26}{2.26}=1

For Oxygen  = \frac{4.55}{2.26}=2.01\approx 2

  • <u>Step 3:</u> Taking the mole ratio as their subscripts.

The ratio of C : O = 1 : 2

Hence, the formula for sample 1 is CO_2

  • <u>For Sample 2:</u>

Total mass of sample = 100 g

Mass of carbon = 42.9 g

Mass of oxygen = (100 - 42.9) = 57.1 g

To formulate the formula of the compound, we need to follow some steps:

  • <u>Step 1:</u> Converting the given masses into moles.

Moles of Carbon =\frac{\text{Given mass of Carbon}}{\text{Molar mass of Carbon}}=\frac{42.9g}{12g/mole}=3.57moles

Moles of Oxygen = \frac{\text{Given mass of oxygen}}{\text{Molar mass of oxygen}}=\frac{57.1g}{16g/mole}=3.57moles

  • <u>Step 2:</u> Calculating the mole ratio of the given elements.

For the mole ratio, we divide each value of the moles by the smallest number of moles calculated which is 3.57 moles.

For Carbon = \frac{3.57}{3.57}=1

For Oxygen  = \frac{3.57}{3.57}=1

<u>Step 3:</u> Taking the mole ratio as their subscripts.

The ratio of C : O = 1 : 1

Hence, the formula for sample 1 is CO

In the given samples, we need to fix the ratio of oxygen atoms.

So, in sample one, the atom ratio of oxygen and carbon is 2 : 1.

Thus, for 1 atom of oxygen, the atoms of carbon required will be = \frac{1}{2}\times 1=\frac{1}{2}

Now, taking the ratio of carbon atoms in both the samples, we get:

C_1:C_2=\frac{1}{2}:1=1:2

Hence, the ratio of carbon in both the compounds is 1 : 2
