Answer:

Molar mass: 399.9 g/mol

The mass of iron(III) sulfate is 269 grams.

Explanation:

First of all, you have to find the molar mass of Fe2(SO4)3.

So you find the molar first for each element

<h3>Fe = 55.8 amu</h3><h3>S = 32.1 amu</h3><h3>O = 16.0 amu</h3>

However, there are 2 iron atoms, 3 sulfur atoms, and 12 oxygen atoms.(Don't forget the 3 outside the parenthesis of SO4).

So you do this

<h3>55.8(2) + 32.1(3) + 16.0(12) = 399.9 </h3>

So the final answer is 399.9 g/mol

Second of all, if you want to find the mass of Fe2(SO4)3, you have to convert from formula units to moles. After that, then you convert from moles to grams.

If you want to convert from molecules to molecules, you have to use Avogadro's number. Avogadro's number is 6.02 x 10^23. Then if you want to convert from moles to grams, you use the molar mass. We already know that the molar mass is 399.9 g/mol.

Therefore, now use dimensional analysis to show your work.

<h3>(4.05 x 10^23) formula units of Fe2(SO4)3 * 1 mol/ 6.02 x 10^23 formula units * 399.9 g/mol / mol</h3>

Formula units in the beginning and the moles will cancel out.

<h3>So [(4.05 x 10^23) / (6.02 x 10^23)] x 399.9 = 269.0357143</h3>

But we need to use significant figures with the least digits(which is 4.05) So we round to the nearest whole number.

<h3>269.0357143 = 269</h3>

So the final answer for the mass of iron(III) sulfate is 269 grams(don't forget the units).

Hope it helped!

Jaiden is writing a report about the structure of the atom. In her report, she says that the atom has three main parts and two s
yulyashka [42]

Answer:

The smallest constituent of an element is termed as an atom. According to Jaiden, an atom comprises two subatomic particles and three prime parts, however, this is incorrect as an atom comprises three subatomic particles and two main parts. The three subatomic particles are the protons, electrons, and neutrons. All these parts are smaller in comparison to an atom, thus, they are considered as subatomic particles.  

To be considered as an atom, an atom is needed only electrons and neutrons, like hydrogen exhibit one electron and one proton. On the other hand, the overall charge of the atom is not affected by the presence of neutrons, it is the subatomic particle that only enhances the mass of the atom.

What part of the sun do we see from earth?
NISA [10]

Answer:

photosphere

Explanation:

photosphere

There are 3 main layers of the Sun that we can see. They are the photosphere, the chromosphere and the corona. Together they make up the "atmosphere" of the Sun. The part of the Sun that glows (and that we see with the naked eye) is called the photosphere

How is solar power used to generate electricity?

This is the shortest answer, you can google: net meter, inverter, solar panels and the roof system for a shorter one.

The roof system

In most solar systems, solar panels are placed on the roof. An ideal site will have no shade on the panels, especially during the prime sunlight hours of 9 a.m. to 3 p.m.; a south-facing installation will usually provide the optimum potential for your system, but other orientations may provide sufficient production. Trees or other factors that cause shading during the day will cause significant decreases to power production. The importance of shading and efficiency cannot be overstated. In a solar panel, if even just one of its 36 cells is shaded, power production will be reduced by more than half. Experienced installation contractors such as NW Wind & Solar use a device called a Solar Pathfinder to carefully identify potential areas of shading prior to installation.

Not every roof has the correct orientation or angle of inclination to take advantage of the sun's energy. Some systems are designed with pivoting panels that track the sun in its journey across the sky. Non-tracking PV systems should be inclined at an angle equal to the site’s latitude to absorb the maximum amount of energy year-round. Alternate orientations and/or inclinations may be used to optimize energy production for particular times of day or for specific seasons of the year.

Solar panels

Solar panels, also known as modules, contain photovoltaic cells made from silicon that transform incoming sunlight into electricity rather than heat. (”Photovoltaic” means electricity from light — photo = light, voltaic = electricity.)

Solar photovoltaic cells consist of a positive and a negative film of silicon placed under a thin slice of glass. As the photons of the sunlight beat down upon these cells, they knock the electrons off the silicon. The negatively-charged free electrons are preferentially attracted to one side of the silicon cell, which creates an electric voltage that can be collected and channeled. This current is gathered by wiring the individual solar panels together in series to form a solar photovoltaic array. Depending on the size of the installation, multiple strings of solar photovoltaic array cables terminate in one electrical box, called a fused array combiner. Contained within the combiner box are fuses designed to protect the individual module cables, as well as the connections that deliver power to the inverter. The electricity produced at this stage is DC (direct current) and must be converted to AC (alternating current) suitable for use in your home or business.

Inverter

The inverter is typically located in an accessible location, as close as practical to the modules. In a residential application, the inverter is often mounted to the exterior sidewall of the home near the electrical main or sub panels. Since inverters make a slight noise, this should be taken into consideration when selecting the location.

The inverter turns the DC electricity generated by the solar panels into 120-volt AC that can be put to immediate use by connecting the inverter directly to a dedicated circuit breaker in the electrical panel.

The inverter, electricity production meter, and electricity net meter are connected so that power produced by your solar electric system will first be consumed by the electrical loads currently in operation. The balance of power produced by your solar electric system passes through your electrical panel and out onto the electric grid. Whenever you are producing more electricity from your solar electric system than you are immediately consuming, your electric utility meter will turn backwards!

Net meter

In a solar electric system that is also tied to the utility grid, the DC power from the solar array is converted into 120/240 volt AC power and fed directly into the utility power distribution system of the building. The power is “net metered,” which means it reduces demand for power from the utility when the solar array is generating electricity – thus lowering the utility bill. These grid-tied systems automatically shut off if utility power goes offline, protecting workers from power being back fed into the grid during an outage. These types of solar-powered electric systems are known as “on grid” or “battery-less” and make up approximately 98% of the solar power systems being installed today.
