Ponds are most likely to dry up

Answer:

Ponds

Explanation:

Ponds are defined as small and large water bodies that are surrounded by land on all of its sides. In simple words, they are comprised of stagnant water bodies. They receive water mostly from the rainfall and the nearby rivers.

When there occurs changes in the weather and climatic conditions, such as low or absence of rainfall, then rapid evaporation takes place, as a result of which the water is released into the atmosphere, making the pond dry.

So, the ponds are most likely to be dry for some part of a year.

92 grams of ethanol,C2H5OH, is dissolved in 1 liter of solution. Determine the molarity (M)

const2013 [10]

Answer: 1.997 M

Explanation:

molarity = moles of solute/liters of solution or $M = \frac{mol}{L}$

first we have to find our moles of solute (mol), which you can find by dividing the mass of solute by molar mass of solute

mass of solute: 92 g

molar mass of solute: 46.08 g/mol

let's plug it in:

$\frac{92 g}{46.08 g/mol} = 1.997 mol$

next, we plug it into our original equation:

$\frac{1.997mol}{1 L} = 1.997 M$

How much time would it take for 336 mg of copper to be plated at a current of 5.6 A ? Express your answer using two significant

schepotkina [342]

Answer:

1.8 × 10² s

Explanation:

Let's consider the reduction that occurs upon the electroplating of copper.

Cu²⁺(aq) + 2 e⁻ ⇒ Cu(s)

We will establish the following relationships:

1 g = 1,000 mg
The molar mass of Cu is 63.55 g/mol
When 1 mole of Cu is deposited, 2 moles of electrons circulate.
The charge of 1 mole of electrons is 96,486 C (Faraday's constant).
1 A = 1 C/s

The time that it would take for 336 mg of copper to be plated at a current of 5.6 A is:

$336mgCu \times \frac{1gCu}{1,000mgCu} \times \frac{1molCu}{63.55gCu} \times \frac{2mole^{-} }{1molCu} \times \frac{94,486C}{1mole^{-}} \times \frac{1s}{5.6C} = 1.8 \times 10^{2} s$

There are two naturally occurring isotopes of boron. 10 B has a mass of 10.0129 u. 11 B has a mass of 11.0093 u. Determine the a

Vanyuwa [196]

<h2>Natural Abundance for 10B is 19.60%</h2>

Explanation:

The natural isotopic abundance of 10B is 19.60%.

The natural isotopic abundance of 11B is 80.40%.

The isotopic masses of boron are 10.0129 u and 11.009 u respectively.

For calculation of abundance of both the isotopes -

Supposing it was 50/50, the average mass would be 10.5, so to increase the mass we need a more percentage of 11.

Determining it as an equation -

10x + 11y= 10.8

x+y=1 (ratio)

10x + 10y = 10

By taking the denominator away from the numerator

we get;

y = 0.8

x + y = 1

∴ x = 0.2

To get percentages we need to multiply it by 100

So, the calculated abundance is 80% for 11 B and 20% 10 B.
