What is a speed of 55 mph equivalent to in units of m/s? (1 mile = 1609 m, 1 hour = 3600 s)

Answer:

24.58 m/s

Explanation:

Given that,

Speed of an object = 55 mph

We need to find the equivalent unit in m/s

We know that,

1 mile = 1609 m

1 hour = 3600 s

So,

55\ mph=\dfrac{55\times 1609\ m}{3600\ s}\\\\=24.58\ m/s

So, the required speed is 24.58 m/s.

Water waves are surface waves. The energy of the waves moves
horrorfan [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

<em>Waves are actually energy passing through the water, causing it to move in a circular motion. ... This phenomenon is a result of the wave's orbital motion being disturbed by the seafloor.</em>

<em />

<em>The direction a wave propagates is perpendicular to the direction it oscillates for transverse waves. A wave does not move mass in the direction of propagation; it transfers energy.</em>

Flauer [41]

Answer:

1.1 × 10⁻⁴ M

Explanation:

Let's consider the following double displacement reaction.

CuCl₂(aq) + 2 AgNO₃(aq) → 2 AgCl(s)+ Cu(NO₃)₂(aq)

We can establish the following relations:

  • The molar mass of AgCl is 143.32 g/mol.
  • The molar ratio of AgCl to CuCl₂ is 2:1

The moles of CuCl₂ that reacted to produce 7.7 mg of AgCl are:

7.7 \times 10^{-3} gAgCl.\frac{1molAgCl}{143.32gAgCl} .\frac{1molCuCl_{2}}{2molAgCl} =2.7 \times 10^{-5}molCuCl_{2}

The molarity of CuCl₂ is:

M=\frac{2.7 \times 10^{-5}molCuCl_{2}}{0.250L} =1.1\times 10^{-4} M

Nitrogen dioxide gas is dark brown in color and remains in equilibrium with dinitrogen tetroxide gas, which is colorless.
sukhopar [10]

Answer:

This reaction is exothermic because the system shifted to the left on heating.

Explanation:

2NO₂ (g) ⇌ N₂O₄(g)

Reactant => NO₂ (dark brown in color)

Product => N₂O₄ (colorless)

From the question given above, we were told that when the reaction at equilibrium was moved from room temperature to a higher temperature, the mixture turned dark brown in color.

This simply means that the reaction does not like heat. Hence the reaction is exothermic reaction.

Also, we can see that when the temperature was increased, the reaction turned dark brown in color indicating that the increase in the temperature favors the backward reaction (i.e the equilibrium shift to the left) as NO₂ which is the reactant is dark brown in color. This again indicates that the reaction is exothermic because an increase in the temperature of an exothermic reaction will shift the equilibrium position to the left.

Therefore, we can conclude that:

The reaction is exothermic because the system shifted to the left on heating.

Why can't methanol, CH3OH, be used as a solvent for sodium amide, NaNH2? Sodium amide is nonpolar and methanol is polar. Sodium
Elodia [21]

Answer: sodium amide undergoes an acid -base reaction

Explanation:

sodium amide is a ionic compound and basically exists as sodium cation and amide anion. Amide anion is highly basic in nature and hence as soon as  there is amide anion generated in the solution , Due to its very pronounced acidity it very quickly abstracts the slightly acidic proton available on methanol.

This leads to formation of ammonia and sodium methoxide.

Hence sodium amide reacts with methanol and abstracts its only acidic proton and form ammonia and sodium Methoxide.

Hence the 3rd statement is a corrects statement.

So we cannot use methanol for sodium amide because sodium amide itself would react with methanol and the inherent molecular natur of sodium amide would then change.

The 1st and 2nd statements both are incorrect because both the compounds methanol as well as sodium amide have dipole moments and hence are polar molecules.

The 4th statement is also incorrect as both the molecules have dipole moment and hence there would be ion-dipole forces operating between them.

The following reaction occurs:

NaNH₂+CH₃OH→NH₃+CH₃ONa
