What is the pH of a solution that contains 0.009 grams of oxalic acid in 100<br> mL of water?

The current global population is 7.7 billion people, and the WHO estimates the minimum water need per person per day is 15 L. An

anygoal [31]

Answer:

a) The amount of freshwater available as groundwater, lakes and rivers, does not even reach one day the need for consumption for the current global population. ( t = 5.489 E-13 day )

b) The annual terrestrial precipitation, reaches to sustain the drinking water needs for the current global population

Explanation:

Let P = 7.7 billion people = 7.7 E12 person

∴ water needed for the total population for one day:

⇒ water amount = 7.7 E12 person * ( 15 L / person. day ) = 1.155 E14 L H2O /day

⇒ water amount = 1.155 E14 L H2O/day * 1 E1 Km² H2O / L H2O = 1.155 E15 Km² H2O/day * ( 365 day / year ) = 4.216 E17 Km²/year

∴ freshwater available:

freshwater = 6.34 E2 Km² H2O

how long will this water sustain the current population?

⇒ t = 6.34 E2 Km² * day / 1.155 E15 Km² = 5.489 E-13 day

this amount of freshwater does not even meet the need of the current global population.

∴ the annual terrestrial precipitation (Py) = 505000 Km³/year..........from literature

⇒ Py = 505000 Km³ H2O/year * ( 1000 m/Km )³ * ( 1000L/m³ )

⇒ Py = 5.05 E17 L H2O/year * ( 1 E1 Km² / L ) = 5.05 E18 Km² H2O/year

⇒ Py > water amount

the annual terrestrial precipitation of water, reaches to sustain the drinking water needs.

At − 12.0 ∘ C , a common temperature for household freezers, what is the maximum mass of sorbitol (C6H14O6) you can add to 2.00

allochka39001 [22]

Answer:

2,347.8 grams

Explanation:

The freezing point depression Kf of water = 1.86° C / molal.

To still freeze at -12° C, then the molality of the solution 12/ 1.86 = 6.45 moles

The molecular weight of sorbitol (C6H14O6)is:

6 C = 6 ×12 = 72

14 H = 14 × 1 = 14

6 O = 6 × 16 = 96

...giving a total of 182

So one mole of sorbitol has a mass of 182 grams.

Since there are 2 kg of water, 2 × 6.45 moles = 12.9 moles can be added to the water to get the 12° C freezing point depression.

Therefore

grams = moles × molar mass

12.9 moles × 182 grams / mole = 2,347.8 grams of sorbitol can be added and still freeze

How do you find out how many protons,electrons, and neutrons an atom has?

Evgen [1.6K]

So the atomic number is the same as protons, and electrons and to get neutrons by subtracting number of protons from atomic mass.

What is the minimum (non-zero) thickness of a benzene (n = 1.501) thin film that will result in constructive interference when v

ad-work [718]

Explanation:

At each reflecting surface (benzene and glass) there will be 180 degree phase change.

Now, for constructive interference the optical path in benzene is $\lambda$ .

Formula to calculate thickness of a benzene thin film is as follows.

Optical path length through benzene ( $\lambda$ ) = $2 \times n \times d$

Hence, substituting the given values into the above formula as follows.

Optical path length through benzene = $2 \times n \times d$

d = $\frac{\text{Optical path length through benzene}}{2 \times n}$

= $\frac{\lambda}{2 \times n}$

= $\frac{615 \times 10^{-9}}{2 \times 1.501}$ (as 1 nm = $10^{-9}m$

= 204.9 m

Thus, we can conclude that minimum thickness of benzene is 204.9 m.
