Chemistry
1 answer:
8_murik_8 [283]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

The ability and tendency of certain systems to maintain a relatively constant internal state in spite of changes in external conditions; this ability is achieved by the presence of feedback mechanisms which can adjust the state of the system to compensate for changes in the state caused by the external environment. It is exemplified in homeothermal biological systems, such as animals which maintain relatively constant blood temperature and composition in spite of variations in external temperature or the composition of the food ingested.

What is the frequency of infrared light of 1.0 × 10 m wavelength?
Anettt [7]
In order to find the answer you must plug in the information to the frequency equation, c=fv. C is the speed of light, 3.0 x 10^8. By plugging in the information you receive a frequency of 3.0 x 10^7 hz.

Use a chemical equation to show how aqueous hno3 fits the definition of an acid
Lunna [17]
An acid has several definitions one would be that it is a proton donor and an electron donor. Also, it said to produce an H+ ion when in solution. For nitric acid in solution, it dissociates into ions which are NO- ions and H+ ions. So, it must be an acid. It has a dissociation reaction:

HNO3 = H+ + NO3-

How many liters of a 4M solution can be made using 100 grams of LiBr?
REY [17]

Answer:

volume = 0.288 L

Explanation:

To find the volume, you need to (1) convert grams LiBr to moles LiBr (via molar mass) and then (2) calculate volume (via molarity equation). It is important to arrange the ratios in a way tat allows for the cancellation of units (desired units in the numerator).

<u>(Step 1)</u>

Molar Mass (LiBr): 6.9410 g/mol + 79.904 g/mol

Molar Mass (LiBr): 86.845 g/mol

100 grams LiBr           1 mole
-----------------------  x  ------------------  =  1.15 moles LiBr
                                  86.845 g

<u>(Step 2)</u>

Molarity (M) = moles / volume (L)

4 M = 1.15 moles / volume

(4 M) x volume = 1.15 moles

volume = 1.15 moles / 4 M

volume = 0.288 L

Using this formula, to find K, what does E0 represent?. . K=10^(nE0/0.0592)
Nadusha1986 [10]
E0,correctly written as EE^{o}, is the <span> standard electrode potential of the cell. This is usually used in the subject, electrochemistry. This is used to measure the difference in potential between two half cells used in an electrochemical cell. The o above signifies that it is at its standard state. </span>
