Neptune is 30 AU (astronomical units) from the sun. How long, in light minutes, would it take for light from the sun to reach Ne

ptune?

Answer:

250 light minutes takes

Explanation:

1 astonomical unit is equal to 1.50x10¹¹m

The light travels at the speed of 3.0x10⁸m/s. That means in 1 second, travels 3.0x10⁸m. To solve this question we must find the distance of neptune to the sun in meters. In this way we can find the seconds (And minutes) that need the light to travel from the sun to neptune:

<em>Distance from Sun to neptune:</em>

30AU * (1.50x10¹¹m / 1AU) = 4.5x10¹²m

<em>Time transcurred:</em>

4.5x10¹²m * (1s / 3.0x10⁸m) = 15000s

15000s * (1min / 60s) =

<h3>250 light minutes takes</h3>

A saturated solution of barium chloride at 30 degrees Celsius contains 150 g water. How much additional barium chloride can be d
Ksenya-84 [330]
Solubility of barium chloride at 30 degree Celsius is 38.2g /100 g water and solubility of barium chloride at 60 degree Celsius is 46.6 g / 100 g water.
The quantity of barium chloride that is dissolved in water at 30 degree Celsius = 38.2 * [150/100] = 57.30 g.
The quantity of barium chloride that will be dissolved in water at 60 degree Celsius = 46.6 * [150/100] = 69.90 g
 The difference between these quantities is the amount of barium chloride that can be dissolved by heating the barium chloride to 60 degree Celsius.
69.90 - 57.30 = 12.60 g. Therefore, 12.60 g of barium chloride can still be dissolved in the water by heating the water to 60 degree Celsius.

A reaction was performed in which 3.6 g 3.6 g of benzoic acid was reacted with excess methanol to make 1.3 g 1.3 g of methyl ben
Anit [1.1K]

<u>Answer:</u> The percent yield of the reaction is 32.34 %

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the number of moles, we use the equation:

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}     .....(1)

  • <u>For benzoic acid:</u>

Given mass of benzoic acid = 3.6 g

Molar mass of benzoic acid = 122.12 g/mol

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

\text{Moles of benzoic acid}=\frac{3.6g}{122.12g/mol}=0.0295mol

The chemical equation for the reaction of benzoic acid and methanol is:

\text{Benzoic acid + methanol}\rightarrow \text{methyl benzoate}

By Stoichiometry of the reaction

1 mole of benzoic acid produces 1 mole of methyl benzoate

So, 0.0295 moles of benzoic acid will produce = \frac{1}{1}\times 0.0295=0.108 moles of methyl benzoate

  • Now, calculating the mass of methyl benzoate from equation 1, we get:

Molar mass of methyl benzoate = 136.15 g/mol

Moles of methyl benzoate = 0.0295 moles

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

0.0295mol=\frac{\text{Mass of methyl benzoate}}{136.15g/mol}\\\\\text{Mass of methyl benzoate}=(0.0295mol\times 136.15g/mol)=4.02g

  • To calculate the percentage yield of methyl benzoate, we use the equation:

\%\text{ yield}=\frac{\text{Experimental yield}}{\text{Theoretical yield}}\times 100

Experimental yield of methyl benzoate = 1.3 g

Theoretical yield of methyl benzoate = 4.02 g

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\%\text{ yield of methyl benzoate}=\frac{1.3g}{4.02g}\times 100\\\\\% \text{yield of methyl benzoate}=32.34\%

Hence, the percent yield of the reaction is 32.34 %

The mass percent of solute in a solution containing 3.73 g KBr dissolved in 131 g of H2O is:
Elina [12.6K]

\huge \underbrace \mathfrak \red{Answer}

28%

Explanation:

mass of solute(KBr) = 3.73g

mass of solvent(H2O) = 131g

mass of solution = mass of solute + mass of solvent

= 3.73 + 131

= 134.73g

\sf \large {mass \: percentage =  \frac{mass \: of \: solute}{mass \: of \: solvent}  \times 100} \\  \\  \sf  mass \: percentage =  \frac{3.73}{134.73}  \times 100 \\  \\  \sf mass \: percentage =  0.028 \times 100 \\  \\  \sf mass \: percentage = 28\%

Relative to electrons and electron states, what does each of the four quantum numbers specify
Alla [95]

Answer:

(n, l, m sub l, m sub s)

N: principle quantum number (1,2,3,4,etc)

l: angular momentum quantum number, the shape (l has to be at least 1 less than n, but can be 0 depending on n)

M sub l: magnetic quantum number (l determines this number)

M sub s: spin quantum number (can only ever be 1/2 or -1/2)
