Answer: 568g/mol

Explanation:

It should be noted that there are 40 atoms of carbon in lycopene.

Since mass of 1 carbon = 12g/mol

Mass of 40 carbon atoms = 40 × 12g/mol = 480g/mol

Let the molar mass of lycopene be represented by x.

Therefore the molar mass of carbon = x × mass percent of carbon in lycopene

x × 84.49% = 480g/mol

x × 0.8449 = 480g/mol

x = 480/0.8449

x = 568g/mol

The molar mass of lycopene is 568g/mol

What is the maximum radiation pressure exerted by sunlight in space ( s = 1350 w/m 2) on a flat black surface? a. 2. 25 × 10−5 p
mel-nik [20]

The maximum radiation pressure exerted by sunlight in space on a flat black surface is  4.5 × 10^{-6}  P a. So, the correct option is (b).

Radiation pressure is the name for the force electromagnetic wave particles exert on a surface. It is inversely related to the wave's speed. Given data

Solar constant  ( S )  =  1350W / m ^2

Now, the radiaton pressure is given by

P = 2 S /c

where c is the speed of the light

P = 2 × 1350 /3 × 10 ^8

P = 9 × 10^{-6}  P a

For a black surface, P = 4.5× 10^{-6}  P a

Therefore, maximum radiation pressure exerted by sunlight in space on a flat black surface is  4.5 × 10^{-6}  P a

What is the molar mass of a gas if 0.102 g of the gas occupies 0.070 L at STP? a. 32.6g / mol b. 28.2 g/mol c. 40.0g / mol d. 47
alexgriva [62]

Answer:

A. 32.6 g/mol

Explanation:

First convert the volume of gas to moles using the ratio 1 mol / 22.4 L at STP.

0.070 L • (1 mol / 22.4 L) = 0.00313 mol

Now divide the grams of gas by the moles of gas:

0.102 g / 0.00313 mol = 32.6 g/mol

How many molecules are in 2.00 moles of h2o
Sedaia [141]
1 mole = 6.022×10^23 atoms. 1 water molecule = 2 Hydrogen atoms + 1 oxygen atom. So, 1 mole H2O = 1.2044×10^24 hydrogen atoms. Therefore 2 mole H2O will have 2.4088×10^24 hydrogen atoms.
