Answer:

v=6.7\times 10^9\ mi/hr

Explanation:

Given that,

The speed of light is 3×10⁸ m/s

We need to convert it into mi/hr.

Since, 1 mile = 1610 m

1 hour = 3600 s

So,

v=3\times 10^8\ \dfrac{m}{s}\\\\=3\times 10^8\ \dfrac{\dfrac{1}{1610}\ \text{miles}}{\dfrac{1}{3600}\ s}\\\\=6.7\times 10^9\ mi/hr

So, the required speed of light is 6.7\times 10^9\ mi/hr.

A gas mixture contains the following gases with the mole fractions indicated: nitrogen (0.21), oxygen (0.16), carbon dioxide (0.
alukav5142 [94]

Answer:

Mole fraction Ar = 0.31

Explanation:

Remember that the sum of the mole fractions in a mixture of gases = 1

Mole fraction = Moles from a gas / Total moles

Mole fraction N₂+ Mole fraction O₂+ Mole fraction SO₂+ Mole fraction CO₂ + Mole fraction Ar = 1

N₂ = 0.21

O₂= 0.16

CO₂ = 0.23

SO₂ = 0.09

Mole fraction Ar = 1 - 0.21 - 0.16 - 0.23 - 0.09

Mole fraction Ar = 0.31

If 5 grams of hydrogen reacted with 40 games of oxygen to form water, how much of water would be formed?
GREYUIT [131]
2H₂ + O₂ = 2H₂O

n(H₂)=m(H₂)/M(H₂)
n(H₂)=5g/2.0g/mol=2.5 mol

n(O₂)=m(O₂)/M(O₂)
n(O₂)=40g/32.0g/mol=1.25 mol

H₂ : O₂ = 2 : 1

2.5 : 1.25 = 2 : 1

n(H₂O)=n(H₂)=2n(O₂)=2.5 mol

m(H₂O)=n(H₂O)M(H₂O)

m(H₂O)=2.5mol*18.0g/mol=45.0 g
