7 0

Answer:

47900 cm

General Formulas and Concepts:

Chemistry

Base 10 Decimal System
Using Dimensional Analysis

Explanation:

Step 1: Define

0.479 km

Step 2: Identify Conversions

1 km = 1000 m

1 m = 100 cm

Step 3: Convert

$0.479 \ km(\frac{1000 \ m}{1 \ km} )(\frac{100 \ cm}{1 \ m} )$ = 47900. cm

Step 4: Check

We are given 3 sig figs. Follow sig fig rules.

47900. cm ≈ 47900 cm

If 45.0 mL of ethanol (density =0.789g/mol) initially at 6.0°C mix with 45.0 mL of water (density =1.0 g/mol) initially at 28.0°

Likurg_2 [28]

The final temperature of the mixture : 21.1° C

<h3>Further explanation </h3>

The law of conservation of energy can be applied to heat changes, i.e. the heat received / absorbed is the same as the heat released

Q in(gained) = Q out(lost)

Heat can be calculated using the formula:

Q = mc∆T

Q = heat, J

m = mass, g

c = specific heat, joules / g ° C

∆T = temperature difference, ° C / K

Q ethanol=Q water

mass ethanol=

$\tt mass=\rho\times V\\\\mass=0.789\times 45=35.505~g$

mass water =

$\tt mass=1~g/ml\times 45~ml=45~g$

then the heat transfer :

$\tt 35.505\times 2.42~J/g^oC\times (t-6)=45\times 4.18~J/g^oC\times (28-t)\\\\85.922t-515.533=5266.8-188.1t\\\\274.022t=5782.33\rightarrow t=21.1^oC$

What happens to gas particles when they are compressed?

Anuta_ua [19.1K]

Answer:

3)Some gas molecules move further apart and some move closer together.

Explanation:

because When more gas particles enter a container, there is less space for the particles to spread out, and they become compressed. The particles exert more force on the interior volume of the container. This force is called pressure. There are several units used to express pressure.

Which statement accurately describes the reactants of a reaction?

krek1111 [17]

Answer:

C. substances that are used up in a reaction

Explanation:

Substances are combined in a chemical reaction to give rise to other substances. The substances that come together are called REACTANTS while the substances that are produced are called PRODUCTS.

Reactants are used up in the reaction to give rise to new products at the end of the reaction. For example, in the reaction as follows:

6CO2 + 6H2O --> C6H12O6 + 6O2

CO2 (carbon dioxide) and water (H2O) are the REACTANTS of the reaction, which are used up to form glucose and oxygen (products)
