Answer:

90 minutes

Explanation:

The half life of a first order reaction is;

t1/2 = ln(2) / k

To solve for t;

The integral rate expression for a first order reaction is;

ln[A] = ln[Ao] - kt

t = 60 minutes

Final Concentration = [A] = 100 - 37 = 63

Initial Concentration = [Ao] = 100

ln(63) = ln(100) - k (60)

k (60) = ln (100) - ln(63)

k = 0.4620 / 60 = 0.0077

Inserting the value of k in the half life equatin;

t1/2 = ln(2) / 0.0077 = 90 minutes

To make 2.00 L of 0.300 M sulfuric acid, how many mL of a 1.00 M stock solution should be used?
Tamiku [17]
We are given with
M1 = 1.00 M

M2 = 0.300 M
V2 = 2.00 L

We are asked to get V1

Using material balance
M1 V1 = M2 V2
Substituting the given values
1.00 V1 = 0.300 M (2.00 L)
V1 = 0.600 L or 600 mL
THe volume needed is 600 mL<span />

9 grams of hydrogen gas (H2) will SC  Johnson need to react in order to make 1 bottle of Windex.

Explanation:

Balance equation for the formation of ammonia from H2 gas.

N2 + 3H2 ⇒ 2 NH_{3}

Given

mass of ammonia in 1 bottle of windex = 51 gram

atomic mass of ammonia 17.01 gram/mole

number of moles = \frac{mass}{atomic mass of 1 mole}

number of moles = \frac{51}{17.01}

                               = 3 moles of ammonia is formed.

in 1 bottle of windex there are 3 moles of ammonia 0r 51 grams of ammonia.

From the equation it can be found that:

3 moles of hydrogen reacted to form 2 moles of ammonia

so, x moles of hydrogen will react to form 3 moles of ammonia.

\frac{2}{3} = \frac{3}{x}

x = 4.5 moles of hydrogen will be required.

to convert moles into gram formula used:

mass = atomic mass x number of moles  (atomic mass of H2 is 2grams/mole)

        = 2 x 4.5

        = 9 grams of hydrogen.

You have a mass of 54 kg and are sitting on a stool. The normal force the stool applies on you is ...
Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

Answer:

529.2 N

Explanation:

As we have studied the first law of motion, which states that every action has some reaction, equal in magnitude but having an opposite direction.

The force that is acting on the student will be due to gravitational force, that is equal to his weight.

                                              F=mg: 54kg x 9.8m/s^2 =529.2 N

So the weight of student is exerting downwards towards the stool and land. The stool will also exert a force on the student that will be equal in magnitude but opposite in direction, then it will be 529.2 N.

This is because the student is sitting in a constant state and all the weight is exerted on the stool.

Note: This answer is very generic supposing that all the weight of the student is on stool. But, if we suppose that student's legs are on floor so it means the force of gravity acting on the stool has become less because student's mass on stool is less. So the answer would be a force somehow less than 529.2 N.  However, since the question asked normal force, it would be weight of student in general terms.

Hope it helps!

How does ur body maintain constant tempature on a hot day?
Lina20 [59]

It knows that when water evaporates, it carries heat energy away with it. 
So your body puts some water out on your skin, and hopes that it will
evaporate.  We call that "perspiring" or "sweating".
