Which of the following statements is incorrect:

What scientific instrument do we use to measure seismic waves? PLSSS HELP xD

gulaghasi [49]

The instrument we use to measure seismic waves is the seismometer, or seismograph, those are two ways to name it.

Glad to help ya!! :)

Interpret the following equation for a chemical reaction using the coefficients given: H2(g) + Cl2(g) 2 HCl(g) On the particulat

jeyben [28]

Answer:

On the particulate level: 1 molecule of H₂(g) reacts with 1 molecule of Cl₂(g) to form 2 molecules of HCl(g).

On the molar level: 1 mole of H₂(g) reacts with 1 mole of Cl₂(g) to form 2 moles of HCl(g).

Explanation:

Let's consider the following equation.

H₂(g) + Cl₂(g) → 2 HCl(g)

We can use the balanced equation to interpret the changes in two levels: the particulate level and the molar level.

On the particulate level, we consider discrete molecules.

On the particulate level: 1 molecule of H₂(g) reacts with 1 molecule of Cl₂(g) to form 2 molecules of HCl(g).

On the molar level, we think in terms of moles, considering 1 mole of particles = 6.02 × 10²³ particles.

On the molar level: 1 mole of H₂(g) reacts with 1 mole of Cl₂(g) to form 2 moles of HCl(g).

How is pascals law used in the brakes of a car? I’m giving 67 points!

bogdanovich [222]

Answer:

A change in pressure at any point in an enclosed fluid at rest is transmitted undiminished to all points in the fluid. With that said; in a hydraulic brake system, if the piston in the master cylinder(the part your foot pushes on) is one inch square area and you push with 100 pounds, then 100 pounds per square inch is transmitted to all parts of the hydraulic system. Now if the brake caliper piston(the part that pushes against the brake pad) is 2 square inches then there will be a total of 200 lbs of force being applied by the wheel cylinder, because each square inch has 100 pounds pushing on it. This is basically how cars brake systems are designed in order to reduce the amount of force required by the driver.

Btw if u want to give 67 points u must multiply that by 2 since two people answer and they get half of 67. Im still happy with my 34 though!

A 0.1014 g sample of a purified compound containing C, H, and, O was burned in a combustion apparatus and produced 0.1486 g CO2

Alina [70]

Answer: The empirical formula for the given compound is $CH_2O$

Explanation:

The chemical equation for the combustion of hydrocarbon having carbon, hydrogen and oxygen follows:

$C_xH_yO_z+O_2\rightarrow CO_2+H_2O$

where, 'x', 'y' and 'z' are the subscripts of Carbon, hydrogen and oxygen respectively.

We are given:

Mass of $CO_2=0.1486g$

Mass of $H_2O=0.0609g$

We know that:

Molar mass of carbon dioxide = 44 g/mol

Molar mass of water = 18 g/mol

For calculating the mass of carbon:

In 44 g of carbon dioxide, 12 g of carbon is contained.

So, in 0.1486 g of carbon dioxide, $\frac{12}{44}\times 0.1486=0.0405g$ of carbon will be contained.

For calculating the mass of hydrogen:

In 18 g of water, 2 g of hydrogen is contained.

So, in 0.0609 g of water, $\frac{2}{18}\times 0.0609=0.00677$ of hydrogen will be contained.

Mass of oxygen in the compound = (0.1014) - (0.0405 + 0.00677) = 0.054 g

To formulate the empirical formula, we need to follow some steps:

Step 1: Converting the given masses into moles.

Moles of Carbon = $\frac{\text{Given mass of Carbon}}{\text{Molar mass of Carbon}}=\frac{0.0405g}{12g/mole}=0.003375moles$

Moles of Hydrogen = $\frac{\text{Given mass of Hydrogen}}{\text{Molar mass of Hydrogen}}=\frac{0.00677g}{1g/mole}=0.00677moles$

Moles of Oxygen = $\frac{\text{Given mass of oxygen}}{\text{Molar mass of oxygen}}=\frac{0.054g}{16g/mole}=0.003375moles$

Step 2: Calculating the mole ratio of the given elements.

For the mole ratio, we divide each value of the moles by the smallest number of moles calculated which is 0.485 moles.

For Carbon = $\frac{0.003375}{0.003375}=1$

For Hydrogen = $\frac{0.00677}{0.003375}=2.00\times 2$

For Oxygen = $\frac{0.003375}{0.003375}=1$

Step 3: Taking the mole ratio as their subscripts.

The ratio of C : H : O = 1 : 2 : 1

The empirical formula for the given compound is $C_1H_2O_1=CH_2O$

Thus, the empirical formula for the given compound is $CH_2O$

What type of reaction occurs between Mg and HCl and explain why?

lyudmila [28]

Bonding is ionic for sure
Mg has lost 2e,s to become Mg2+
and there are 2 Cl-
the strong attraction between the Mg2+ and 2Cl- form the ionic bonding
