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.

san4es73 [151]

Answer:

E) All of the above.

Explanation:

Hello,

Since the acidic nature of the HCl implies its corrosiveness, when it is in contact with the skin and eyes the burning starts immediately, so gloves and goggles must be worn. Next, the fuming hydrochloric acid (37% by mass) is volatile so it gives off even when dissolved into water, so it must be used in the fume hood. Then, since vapors are produced during the chemical reaction, an overpressure could be attained, that's why we must keep the glass sash of the fume hood between us and the vial. As a common risk, the vial could be dropped causing the hydrochloric acid to splash, so we must keep the vial well inside the hood.

Best regards.

Given the balanced equation representing a reaction:
sleet_krkn [62]
4Al(s) + 3O2(g) --> 2Al2O3(s)    This is the balanced.
From the equation:

 4 moles of Al required 3 moles of O2 to produce 2 moles of Al2O3
 
3 moles of O2 reacted with 4 moles of Al to produce 2 moles of Al2O3
1 mole of O2 reacted with 4/3 moles of Al to produce 2/3 moles of Al2O3  (Divide by 3)
4.5 moles of O2 reacted with (4/3 *4.5) moles of Al to produce (2/3*4.5) moles of Al2O3

4.5 moles of O2 reacted with 6moles of Al to produce  3moles of Al2O3

(3) is the answer.  6 mol of Al.

Over-the-counter hydrogen peroxide solutions are 3% (w/v). What is this concentration in moles per liter?
Marina CMI [18]
<span>1 ml of water weighs 1 gram so 1 liter (1000 ml) weighs 1000 grams. A 3% solution (3% = 0.03) of hydrogen peroxide (w/v) would contain 1000 grams x 0.03 or 30 grams. The chemical formula of hydrogen peroxide is H2O2 and a mole weighs 34.0147 grams/mole. So 30 grams of H2O2 divided by 34.0147 grams/mole equals 0.88 moles of H2O2. The concentration of a 3% (w/v) hydrogen peroxide solution therefore contains 30 grams of H202 (or 0.88 moles of H202) per in a liter of water (or 1000 grams H20) would thus be 0.88 moles H2O2 per liter (0.88 moles H2O2/l) .</span>

Explain the difference in the boiling point of 2-methylpropane and 2-iodo-2-methylpropane in terms of both molecular polarity an
Len [333]
The Boiling Point of 2-methylpropane is approximately -11.7 °C, while, Boiling Point of <span>2-iodo-2-methylpropane is approximately 100 </span>°C.

As both compounds are Non-polar in nature, So there will be no dipole-dipole interactions between the molecules of said compounds.

The Interactions found in these compounds are London Dispersion Forces.

And among several factors at which London Dispersion Forces depends, one is the size of molecule.

Size of Molecule:
                          There is direct relation between size of molecule and London Dispersion forces. So, 2-iodo-2-methylpropane containing large atom (i.e. Iodine) experience greater interactions. So, due to greater interactions 2-iodo-2-methylpropane need more energy to separate from its partner molecules, Hence, high temperature is required to boil them.
