Answer:

There are 8Si atoms and 16 O atoms per unit cell

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Edge length l=0.700nm=>0.7*10^9nm

Density \rho=2.32g/cm^3

Generally the equation for Volume is mathematically given by

V=l^3

V=(0.7*10^9)m^3

V=3,43*10^-{22}cm

Where

Molar mass of  (SiO2) for one formula unit

M=28+32

M=60g/mol

Therefore

Density of Si per unit length is

\rho_{si}=\frac{9.96*10^{23}}{3.43*10^22}

\rho=0.29

Molar mass of  (SiO2) for one formula unit

M=28+32

M=60g/mol

Therefore

There are 8Si atoms and 16 O atoms per unit cell

Write a sentence that descrices how to determine the number of moles of a compound in known mass of a
sattari [20]

Explanation:

<u>Moles is denoted by given mass divided by the molecular mass ,  </u>

Hence ,  

n = w / m

n = moles ,  

w = given mass ,  

m = molecular mass .

For example ,

For  a compound X ,

The given mass i.e. w = 20 g

and the molecular mass ,i.e. , m = 10 g / mol

Then the moles can easily be calculated by using the above formula ,

n = w / m

n = 20 g / 10 g/mol = 2 mol

Hence , answer = 2 mol.

If you had a mixture of ethanol, glycerol, ethylene glycol, methanol, and water, how could you separate these five substances ou
leonid [27]

Fractional distillation

Explanation:

The best way to separate the mixtures out is through the process of fractional distillation.

In fractional distillation, liquid - liquid mixtures are separated based on the differences in boiling point of their components. Let us examine the boiling points of the component of the mixtures:  

     Ethanol                  78⁰C

     Glycerol                290⁰C

     Ethylene glycol     197.6⁰C

     Methanol               64.7⁰C

     Water                     100⁰C

We see that the liquids in the mixture have different boiling points. In this process, the mixture is heated in a distillation column. When the boiling point of any component is reached, it will rise up in the column and can be channeled to a condenser where it is cooled and collected.

The liquid with the least boiling point is first separated with the one with the highest boiling is recovered last:

   Order of recovery;

               Methanol               64.7⁰C

               Ethanol                  78⁰C

                Water                    100⁰C

               Ethylene glycol     197.6⁰C

                Glycerol                290⁰C

Do x-rays travel slower than infrared
OleMash [197]
No, x-rays do not travel slower than infrared radiation or even the opposite. Both are travelling in vacuum therefore they travel at same speed. They differ in the frequency of the electromagnetic waves.
