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

A device that does work with only one movement and changes the size or direction of a force is a(n) ____.
worty [1.4K]

Answer:

A device that does work with only one movement and changes the size or direction of a force is a simple machine.

Explanation:

  • For applying force, any used basic mechanical devices are simple machines.
  • Simple machine changes the direction as well as the amplitude of the applied force i.e. we can increase or decrease the magnitude of the force.
  • A simple machine is the most basic mechanism to use the force as we need in big mechanical machines.
  • Some of the examples of simple machines are inclined plane, lever, wedge, wheel and axle, pulley, and screw.

Which of the following options would be the best for dissolving PbBr2(s)?
Nezavi [6.7K]

Answer:

2) Add a solution of NaBr

Explanation:

Lead (II) bromide is an inorganic powdery substance that has a solubility in water of 0.973 g/100 mL at 20°C. It is insoluble in alcohol but is soluble in alkali, ammonia, NaBr, and KBr

PbBr₂ is slightly soluble in ammonia, and it reacts with NaOH to produce Pb(OH)₂ and NaBr

Therefore, the best solution for dissolving PbBr₂(s) is NaBr

A common car battery consists of six identical cells each of which carries out the reaction: Pb + PbO2 + 2HSO4- + 2H+ → 2PbSO4 +
docker41 [41]

Answer:

The correct answer is 4.58 grams.

Explanation:

Based on the Faraday's law of electrolysis, at the time of electrolysis, the amount of deposited substance is directly equivalent to the concentration of the flow of charge all through the solution. If current, I, is passed for time, t, seconds and w is the concentration of the substance deposited, then w is directly proportional to I*t or w = zIt (Here z refers to the electrochemical equivalent or the amount deposited when 1 C is passed).  

For the reaction, n * 96500 C = molar mass

1C = molar mass/n*96500 = Equivalent wt / 96500

w = Equivalent wt / 96500 * I * t

In the given reaction,  

Pb + PbO2 + 2HSO4- + 2H+ → 2PbSO4 + 2H2O, n = 2, the current or I drawn is 350 A, for time, t 12.2 seconds.  

Now putting the values in the equation we get,  

w = 207.19 / 2 * 96500 * 350 * 12.2 ( The molecular weight of Pb is 207.19 and the equivalent weight of Pb is 207.19 / 2)

w = 4.58 gm.
