a piece of tin foil has a volume of 0.645 ml to the 3rd if a piece measures 10.0 mm by 12.5 m what is the thickness of the foil
1 answer:
Explanation:
Fundamentally the aluminum foil is a rectangular prism. It has a length, a width, and a thickness.
The volume of a rectangular prism is expressed as
If we know the volume and two of the three dimensions, we can rearrange the equation to solve for the thickness.
But we should also be sure to confirm our units.
A liter is defined as 1000 cm^3. Therefore a mL is equal to 1 cm^3.
You should convert the units of measure given in the problem statement such that the units are aligned. For example, 10.0mm will be 1 cm and 12.5m will be 1250 cm. This will give you a height in cm.

Answer:
194.6 mL of SO₂
Explanation:
The reaction that takes place is:
P₄S₃ + 6O₂(g) → P₄O₁₀ + 3SO₂(g)
<u>To solve this problem we need to use PV=nRT</u>, so first let's convert the given units:
- 23.8 °C → 23.8 + 273.15 = 296.95 K
- 747 torr → 747/760 = 0.983 atm
We need to calculate V, so in order to do that we calculate n, using the mass of the reactant (P₄S₃):
0.576 g P₄S₃ * = 7.85 * 10⁻³ mol SO₂ = n
- Now we calculate V:
PV=nRT
0.983 atm * V = 7.85 * 10⁻³ mol * 0.082 atm·L·mol⁻¹·K⁻¹ * 296.95 K
V = 0.1946 L
- Finally we convert L into mL:
0.1946 * 1000 = 194.6 mL
