how many gallons of water did a truck fill up if it's weight before the fill up was 3547 lbs and afterwards was 4924 lbs?

Chemistry

musickatia [10]3 years ago

Answer: depending on the method, 138-139 (imperial) gallons, or 626 L

Explanation:

The wt of water is 4924-3547 lb = 1377 lb = 1377/2.2 kg = 626 kg = 626 L

1gallon = 4.5 L (it does where I come from and who still measures things in imperial anyway?) so I guess  that is 139 gallons

or alternatively, I recall from distant childhood, “a pint of water weighs a pound and a quarter” which means 1 gallon = 10 lb, so 1377 lb = ~138 gallons

A) For the following reaction, K > 1. Classify each of the reactants and products based on their strength as Bronsted-Lowry a
Aleks04 [339]

Answer:

Explanation:

According to Bronsted-Lowry acids or base theory ,  the reagent capable of giving hydrogen ion or proton  will be acid and that which accepts hydrogen ion or proton  will be base .

C₉H₇N + HNO₂   ⇄    C₉H₇NH⁺ + NO₂⁻

If K > 1 , reaction is proceeding from left to right .

Hence HNO₂ is giving H⁺ or proton and C₉H₇N is accepting proton to form

C₉H₇NH⁺ .  

Hence HNO₂ is bronsted acid and C₉H₇N is bronsted base .

B )

when K < 1 , reaction above proceeds from right to left . That means

C₉H₇NH⁺ is giving H⁺ so it is a bronsted acid and NO₂⁻ is accepting H⁺ so it is a bronsted base .

Hence ,  NO₂⁻ is a bronsted base and C₉H₇NH⁺ is a bronsted acid .

The following chemical reaction occurs in a basic solution.
Dafna1 [17]

Answer:

6 moles of electrons

Explanation:

Let us consider the species NO3− and ClO−. The NO3− is oxidized to NO the oxidation number of nitrogen is decreased from +5 to +2.

The oxidation number of chlorine is increased from +1 to +3. This implies that six electrons were transferred in the balanced reaction equation shown in the question. Hence the answer.

Give the ground-state electron configuration for silicon (SiSi) using noble-gas shorthand. Express your answer in condensed form
nydimaria [60]

Answer:

[Ne] 3s² 3p²

Explanation:

Silicon atoms have 14 electrons. The ground state electron configuration of ground state gaseous neutral silicon is 1s²2s²2p⁶3s²3p².

Using noble gas shorthand, the electronic configuration is reduced to;

[Ne] 3s² 3p². Ne s the nearest noble gas to silicon, Ne contains 8 electrons, this means there's still 4 more electrons to fill. The s orrbital can only hold 2, hence the reaing two is transferred to the p orbital.

Which property of water causes water drops to bead on a freshly waxed car?
astraxan [27]

Answer:

Cohesive forces are greater than adhesive forces  

Step-by-step explanation:

The attractive forces between water molecules and the wax on a freshly-waxed car (adhesive forces) are quite weak.

However, there are strong attractive forces (cohesive forces) between water molecules.

The water molecules are only weakly attracted to the wax, so the cohesive forces pull the water molecules together to form beads .

Match the following chemical reactions:
S_A_V [24]

Answer:

Synthesis - 4

reversible- 2

exchange- 1

decomposition-3

Explanation:

In synthesis reaction two or more components combines to form a single product. example 2H2+O2⇒2H2O

In reversible reaction two reactants combine to form two products . The products then reacts and forms back the reactants. example N2 +3H2 ⇒2NH3

In exchange reaction there is an alternation of ions of reactants to form new products. AB+CD ⇒AC + BD

In decomposition reaction, molecules of a compound break down by the action of heat or light or catalyst. example CaCO3 ⇒CaO +CO2
