Answer:

Percentage of carbon:

${ \tt{ = \frac{24}{30} \times 100\%}} \\ = 80\%$

Percentage of hydrogen:

${ \tt{ = \frac{6}{30} \times 100\%} } \\ = 20\%$

If you mix cu2+ with? a. nacl, b. nano2, c. h2o , arrange the solutions based on their absorption from highest frequency to lowe

erica [24]

The arrangement of the solutions based on their absorption from highest frequency to lowest frequency :

b. $NaN$ $O_{2}$ > c. $H_{2} O$ > a.NaCl

<h3>What is absorption frequency?</h3>

The frequency of the molecular vibration that led to the absorption is the same as the absorption frequency of a basic IR absorption band.

In a way, an emission spectrum is the opposite of an absorption spectrum.
The discrepancies in the energy levels of each chemical element's orbitals correspond to absorption lines for each chemical element at various particular wavelengths.
Therefore, it is possible to identify the constituents in a gas or liquid using its absorption spectrum.
Absorption spectroscopy is most frequently used to measure infrared, atomic, visible, ultraviolet (UV), and x-ray waves.

Choose all that apply. As glaciers melted at the end of the last Ice Age:

Kaylis [27]

As glaciers melted at the end of the last Ice Age worldwide sea level increased immensely and river plains were flooded. Glaciers are floating bodies of ice. Ice is frozen water. When glaciers started melting water that had been frozen for decades or centuries was released back into the ocean. That lead to an increase in sea level. This also led to river plains being drowned/flooded. Therefore, the answer is 1 and 2.

At 63.5 C the vapor pressure of H2O is 175 torr and that of ethanol is 400 torr. A solution is made by adding equal masses of H2

xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer:

Moel fraction of ethanol in the solution = 0.28

Vapor pressure of the solution = 238 torr

Mole fraction of ethanol in the vapor = 0.47

Explanation:

Let's use 100 g of each substance as a calculus basis. Knowing that the molar mass of water is 18 g/mol and the molar mass of ethanol is 46 g/mol, the number of moles (n = mass/molar mass) of each one is:

nw = 100/18 = 5.56 mol

ne= 100/46 = 2.17 mol

The total number of moles is 7.73 mol, so the mole fraction of ethanol is

2.17/7.73 = 0.28

The mole fraction of water must be 0.72, so if we assume that the solution is ideal, by the Raoult's law, the solution vapor pressure is the sum of the multiplication of the mole fraction by the vapor pressure of each substance, thus:

P = 0.28*400 + 0.72*175

P = 238 torr

The partial pressure of each substance can be found by the multiplication of the molar fraction by the vapor pressure, thus:

Pw = 0.72*175 = 126 torr

Pe = 0.28*400 = 112 torr

To know the number of moles that is vaporized above the solution, we may use the ideal gas law:

PV = nRT

P/n = RT/V

R is the gas constant, T is the temperature and V is the volume, so they are the same for both water and ethanol, thus

Pw/nw = Pe/ne

126/nw = 112/ne

ne = (112/126)*nw

ne = 0.89nw

So, the mole fraction of ethanol is:

ne/(ne + nw) = 0.89nw/(0.89nw + nw) = 0.89/1.89 = 0.47

How many moles are present in 63.80L of oxygen gas, O2?

matrenka [14]

Answer:

2.85moles of oxygen gas

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Volume of oxygen gas = 63.8L

Unknown:

Number of moles = ?

Solution:

We assume that the gas is under standard temperature and pressure. To find the number of moles, use the expression below:

1 mole of a gas at STP occupies a volume of 22.4L

So;

63.8L of oxygen gas will take up a volume of

$\frac{63.8}{22.4}$ = 2.85moles of oxygen gas
