Time taken for star to reach Earth = 7.5 years

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

7.5 light years(distance Earth-star)

Required

Time taken

Solution

Speed of light=v = 3 x 10⁸ m/s

1 light years = 9.461 × 10¹⁵ m= distance(d)

So time taken for 1 light years :

time(t) = distance(d) : speed(v)

t = 9.461 × 10¹⁵ m : 3 x 10⁸ m/s

t = 3.154 x 10⁷ s = 1 years

So for 7.5 light years, time taken = 7.5 years

The Following questions pertain to a 2.2M solution of hydrocyanic acid at 25°C. pKa = 9.21 at 25°C. Find the concentrations of a
horsena [70]
1) Chemical reaction: HCN + H₂O → CN⁻ + H₃O⁺.
c(HCN) = 2,2 M = 2,2 mol/L.
pKa(HCN) = 9,21.
Ka = 6,16·10⁻¹⁰.
[CN⁻] = [H₃O⁺] = x.
[HCN<span>] = 2,2 M - x.
</span>Ka = [CN⁻] · [H₃O⁺] / [HCN].
6,16·10⁻¹⁰ = x² / 2,2 M -x.
Solve quadratic equation: [CN⁻] = [H₃O⁺] = 0,0000346 M.
[HCN] = 2,2 M - 0,0000346 M = 2,199 M.

2) pH = - log[H₃O⁺].
pH = -log( 0,0000346 M).
pH = 4,46.
Hydrocyanic acid and hydronium ion (H₃O⁺) are acids. Cyanide anion (CN⁻) is the strongest base in the system, cyanide anion accept protons in chemical reaction.
pKb = pKw - pKa.
pKb = 14 - 9,21 = 4,79.

You are walking on a beach and see a split. Explain how a split could have formed from a rocky headland.
kirza4 [7]

Hello, Lindaparker, a spit  could form from a rocky headland where prevailing winds would blow at an angle to the rocky headland, gradually depositing sand and shingle at that place. A spit is a permanent land form resulting from marine deposition and wind deposition. It is usually a long and narrow accumulation of sand or shingle with one joined to the land and the other end projecting at   a narrow angle out into the sea. Salt marshes sometimes form on the sheltered side of a spit.

Which of the following statements is an example of an ionic bond? a Li-F b H-Cl c C-C D o-h
IceJOKER [234]

Answer:

Li-F

Explanation:

Hydroxide  is a negative ion, which can form ionic bonds with metals, but the bond in hydrogen and oxygen in hydroxide (OH-) is not ionic. It is covalent in nature.

C-C is clearly a covalent bond.

Li-F is an ionic bond.

Bond between H and Cl in H-Cl is covalent in nature. Because of the size difference hydrogen can not act as a cation. So it rather dissociates.

garik1379 [7]

Answer:

About 277 Kelvin

Explanation:

Take the celcius, and add 273.15 to it

4°C + 273.15 = <u>277.15K</u>

And round the answer to the nearest whole

277.15K ≈ 277K
