Reil [10]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Due to the known fact that certain animal ect lived on certain country/continents due to climate water type ect when fossils of various animal where found in unusual parts of the earth the theory came that all the continent where joined together due to fossil and rock types being found on continents in which would be impossible to reach if not joined together in the beginning

If an atom of sodium had an atomic number of 11, and lost and electron , what would you have?
dangina [55]
The atomic number of an element tells you how many protons each atom has. Losing an electron won't affect the number of protons. It will, however, change the charge on the atom. Protons are positive and electrons are negative. If there's more positive than negative then the atom has a positive charge. So the charge for the sodium atom would be +1

A home solar energy unit stores energy for later use. On a sunny day, the temperature of the water in the tank increased from 23
igomit [66]

Answer:

391.46 L

Explanation:

Given:

Initial temperature of the water = 23.4°C

Final temperature of the water = 39°C

Temperature change for the water, ΔT = (39 - 23.4) = 15.6°C

Heat absorbed by the water = 2.55 × 10⁴ kJ = 2.55 × 10⁷ J

Density of the water = 0.998 g/mL

Specific heat of the water, C = 4.184 J/g°C

Now,

The heat absorbed by the water, q = mCΔT

where, m is the mass of the water

Thus,

we have

2.55 × 10⁷ J = m × 4.184 × 15.6

or

m = 390682.45 grams

also,

Density = mass / volume

thus,

0.998 = 390682.45 / volume

or

Volume = 391465.38 mL

or

Volume = 391.46 L

How many moles of potassium hydroxide are needed to completely react with 2.94 moles of aluminum sulfate
ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Answer:- Third choice is correct, 17.6 moles


Solution:- The given balanced equation is:


Al_2(SO_4)_3+6KOH\rightarrow 2Al(OH)_3+3K_2SO_4


We are asked to calculate the moles of potassium hydroxide needed to completely react with 2.94 moles of aluminium sulfate.


From the balanced equation, there is 1:6 mol ratio between aluminium sulfate and potassium hydroxide.


It is a simple mole to mole conversion problem. We solve it using dimensional set up as:


2.94molAl_2(SO_4)_3(\frac{6molKOH}{1molAl_2(SO_4)_3})


= 17.6 mol KOH


So, Third choice is correct, 17.6 moles of potassium hydroxide are required to react with 2.94 moles of aluminium sulfate.

At what temperature is water at its greatest density​
ahrayia [7]

Answer:

3.98^oC

Explanation:

We usually approximate the density of water to about 1000 kg/m^3 at room temperature. In terms of the precise density of water, this is not the case, however, as density is temperature-dependent.

The density of water decreases with an increase in temperature after the peak point of its density. The same trend might be spotted if the temperature of water is decreased from the peak point.

This peak point at which the density of water has the greatest value is usually approximated to about 4^oC. For your information, I'm attaching the graph illustrating the function of the density of water against temperature where you could clearly indicate the maximum point.

To a higher precision, the density of water has a maximum value at 3.98^oC, and the density at this point is exactly 1000 kg/m^3.
