A space probe is an unpiloted, unmanned device sent to explore space and gather scientific information. A space probe is launched from Earth with a set of scientific instruments and tools used to study the atmosphere and composition of space and other planets, moons, or celestial bodies. A probe may operate far out in space, or it may orbit or land on a planet or a moon. It may make a one-way journey, or it may bring samples and data back to Earth. Most probes transmit data from space by radio. There are different types of space probes because they collect different science information about very different environments. The probes must be able to withstand the various extreme environments to collect data. Humans have been sending space probes into space since the 1950s. The next generation of probes will study samples taken from comets, asteroids, and eventually Mars.

<u>Chemistry</u>

<u>Stoichiometry</u>

  • Reading a Periodic Table
  • Using Dimensional Analysis
<h3>Explanation:</h3>

<u>Step 1: Define</u>

[RxN - Balanced] 2NaOH (s) + CO₂ (g) → Na₂CO₃ (s) + H₂O (l)

[Given] 1.85 mol NaOH

<u>Step 2: Identify Conversions</u>

[RxN] 2 mol NaOH → 1 mol H₂O

Molar Mass of H - 1.01 g/mol

Molar Mass of O - 16.00 g/mol

Molar Mass of H₂O - 2(1.01) + 16.00 = 18.02 g/mol

<u>Step 3: Stoichiometry</u>

  1. Set up:                               \displaystyle 1.85 \ mol \ NaOH(\frac{1 \ mol \ H_2O}{2 \ mol \ NaOH})(\frac{18.02 \ g \ H_2O}{1 \ mol \ H_2O})
  2. Multiply/Divide:                 \displaystyle 16.6685 \ g \ H_2O

<u>Step 4: Check</u>

<em>Follow sig fig rules and round. We are given 3 sig figs.</em>

16.6685 g H₂O ≈ 16.7 g H₂O

Complete combustion of 7.50 g of a hydrocarbon produced 23.1 g of CO2 and 10.6 g of H2O. What is the empirical formula for the h
r-ruslan [8.4K]
A CH compound is combusted to produce CO2 and H2O 
CnHm + O2 -----> CO2 + H2O 
Mass of CO2 = 23.1g
 Mass of H2O = 10.6g
 Calculate by mass of the compounds
 For Carbon C, divide by molecular weight of CO2 and multiply with Carbon
molecular weight. So C in grams = 23.1 x (12.01 / 44.01) = 6.3 g C
 For Hydrogen H, divide by molecular weight of H2O and multiply with Hydrogen molecular weight. So H in grams = 10.6 x (2.01 / 18.01) = 0.53 g C
= 1.18 of H
 Calculate the moles for C and H
 6.3 grams of C x (1 mole/12.01 g C) = 0.524 moles of C
 1.18 grams of H x (1 mole/1.008 g H) = 1.17 moles of H
 Divides by both mole entities with smallest
 C = 0.524 / 0.524 = 1 x 4 = 4
 H = 1.17 / 0.524 = 2.23 x 4 = 10
 The empirical formula is C4H10.

This is my first question on Brainly, Can someone explain Molar mass to me? I am not very good with it..
suter [353]
Hey,
A mole is a unit of measure that helps us compare particles of any given substance and its mass. ... The molar mass, also known as molecular weight, is the sum of the total mass in grams of all the atoms that make up a mole of a particular molecule. The unit used to measure is grams per mole.

Lipids are made up of long hydrocarbon chains, composed of all carbon and hydrogen atoms. this characteristic makes lipids insol
Airida [17]
This is because their tails are hydrophobic and their heads are hydrophilic. Hydrophobic meaning dislikes being near water and hydrophilic meaning likes to be near water. Therefore, they will orientate themselves in such a manner that the heads are facing externally and all the tails are facing together protected by the hydrophilic heads. google a photo of lipid chains in water if you are still confused. I'm not sure if that is what you are asking, but I hope it helps.
