Which of the following best defines base isolation?(1 point)

Chemistry
1 answer:
jekas [21]3 years ago
3 0

Base isolation is a method of earthquake resistant engineering where a structure is separated from the ground by isolation units that reduces the impact of seismic vibration energy. So, the last answer choice would be the best definition.

What is the molarity (M) of chloride ions in a solution prepared by mixing 155 ml of 0.276 M calcium chloride with 384 ml of 0.4
sesenic [268]

Answer: The concentration of Cl^- ions in the resulting solution is 1.16 M.

Explanation:

To calculate the molarity of the solution after mixing 2 solutions, we use the equation:

M=\frac{n_1M_1V_1+n_2M_2V_2}{V_1+V_2}

where,

n_1,M_1\text{ and }V_1 are the n-factor, molarity and volume of the CaCl_2

n_2,M_2\text{ and }V_2 are the n-factor, molarity and volume of the AlCl_3

We are given:

n_1=2\\M_1=0.276M\\V_1=155mL\\n_2=3\\M_2=0.471M\\V_2=384mL  

Putting all the values in above equation, we get

M=\frac{(2\times 0.276\times 155)+(3\times 0.471\times 384)}{155+384}\\\\M=1.16M

The concentration of Cl^- ions in the resulting solution will be same as the molarity of solution which is 1.16 M.

Hence, the concentration of Cl^- ions in the resulting solution is 1.16 M.

Define Saturated Solution. What happens as a saturates solution cools?
solong [7]

Saturated solution is a solution in which no more solute can be dissolved in the solvent. When saturated solution cools, the solution began precipitate from the solution, because under lower temperature, usually, less amount solute can be dissolved in the solvent.

What is the concentration of the murexide soution with a transmittance of 28.65%. (molar absorptivity = 3847)
Ainat [17]

Answer:

The concentration of the murexide solution is 0.0000745 M

Explanation:

From Beer-Lambert's law,

A = εlc

A = Absorbance = 28.65% = 0.2865

ε = molar absorptivity = 3847 M/cm

l = path length = 1cm

c = concentration in mol/L = ?

c = A/εl = 0.2865/(3847×1) = 0.0000745 mol/L

Hope this Helps!
