Answer:

Sand dunes are created when wind deposits sand on top of each other until a small mound starts to form. Once that first mound forms, sand piles up on the windward side more and more until the edge of the dune collapses under its own weight.

A balloon is filled with 0.400 moles of gas. How many liters of gas at STP were pumped into the balloon?

Fynjy0 [20]

Answer:

8.96 L

Explanation:

At STP, 1 mole = 22.4 L

0.400 mole * (22.4 L. /1 mole of gas) = 8.96 L

A laboratory analysis of a sample finds it is composed of 38.8% carbon, 16.2% hydrogen, and 45.1% nitrogen. What is its empirica

Sladkaya [172]

Answer: The empirical formula for the given compound is $CH_5N$

Explanation : Given,

Percentage of C = 38.8 %

Percentage of H = 16.2 %

Percentage of N = 45.1 %

Let the mass of compound be 100 g. So, percentages given are taken as mass.

Mass of C = 38.8 g

Mass of H = 16.2 g

Mass of N = 45.4 g

To formulate the empirical formula, we need to follow some steps:

Step 1: Converting the given masses into moles.

Moles of Carbon = $\frac{\text{Given mass of Carbon}}{\text{Molar mass of Carbon}}=\frac{38.8g}{12g/mole}=3.23moles$

Moles of Hydrogen = $\frac{\text{Given mass of Hydrogen}}{\text{Molar mass of Hydrogen}}=\frac{16.2g}{1g/mole}=16.2moles$

Moles of Nitrogen = $\frac{\text{Given mass of nitrogen}}{\text{Molar mass of nitrogen}}=\frac{45.4g}{14g/mole}=3.24moles$

Step 2: Calculating the mole ratio of the given elements.

For the mole ratio, we divide each value of the moles by the smallest number of moles calculated which is 3.23 moles.

For Carbon = $\frac{3.23}{3.23}=1$

For Hydrogen = $\frac{16.2}{3.23}=5.01\approx 5$

For Oxygen = $\frac{3.24}{3.23}=1.00\approx 1$

Step 3: Taking the mole ratio as their subscripts.

The ratio of C : H : N = 1 : 5 : 1

Hence, the empirical formula for the given compound is $C_1H_5N_1=CH_5N$

Purchasing the correctly sized BMX bike is based on the height of the rider. In order to fit a customer, the salesman can use th

Phantasy [73]

Answer: Your best answer is A.

Explanation: 1.35 is a constant and thus is does not change. The equation can be simplified to-
“b = (0.29 x h)+ 1.35”
So, if your rider is say 60 inches tall, the equation would change to-
“b = (0.29 x 60)+ 1.35”
Then to-
“b = (17.4) + 1.35” or “b = 17.4 + 1.35”
And therefore the size of the BMX bike frame in inches would be-
“b = 18.75”

Hope this helped :)
