Why is it necessary to add concentrated HCl, then water, rather than a solution of HCl to the eudiometer tube

1 answer:

8 0

The reaction between concentrated acid and water can release a lot of heat. If a little water is added to a larger amount of acid, the heat can cause the small amount of water to boil very rapidly which then spatters some acid. ... It is recommended that acid should be added to water and not water to acid.

Mature elephants consume an average of 600 pounds of food per day. If an elephant

MAXImum [283]

Answer:

$\large \boxed{\text{4 600 000 kg or 4600 Mg}}$

Explanation:

1. Calculate the adult life

If the elephant is an adult from its 10th birthday until the day before its 56th birthday, its

Adult life = 55 - 10 + 1 = 46 yr

2. Convert years to days

$\text{Adult life} = \text{46 yr} \times \dfrac{\text{365.25 da}}{\text{1 yr}} = \text{16 800 da}$

3. Convert days to pounds of feed

$\text{Feed} = \text{16 800 da} \times \dfrac{\text{600 lb}}{\text{1 da}} = 1.01 \times 10^{7} \text{ lb}$

4. Convert pounds to kilograms and megagrams

$\text{Feed} =1.01 \times 10^{7} \text{ lb} \times \dfrac{\text{1 kg}}{\text{2.20 lb}} =\textbf{4 600 000 kg} = \textbf{4600 Mg}\\\\\text{The elephant will eat $\large \boxed{\textbf{4 600 000 kg or 4600 Mg}}$ of food.}$

Note: The answer can have only two significant figures because that is all you gave for age of the elephant.

6. Cuando se oxidan en el aire 12,120 g de vapor de Zinc se obtienen 15,084 g del óxido. ¿Cuál es la fórmula empírica del óxido?

Eddi Din [679]

Answer:

12120 g + O2 = 15084 g

m Zn = 12.120 Kg

m óxido = 15.084 Kg

1. calcular la masa de cinc en gramos

g = 12,120 Kg x 1000 = 12120 g de cinc

g = 15.084 Kg x 100 = 15084 g de oxígeno

2. calcular gramos de Oxigeno

g O = 15084 g - 12120 g = 2964 g O2

3. calcular % de Zn y O

%m/m ( m soluto / m solc.) x 100

%m/m (Zn) = ( 1210 g / 15084 g ) x 100

% m/m (Zn) = 80.35 % = 80.35 g

%m/m (O) = ( 2964 g / 15084 g ) x 100

% m/m (Zn) = 19.65 % = 19.65 g

4. Calcular moles de cada elemento

Zn: 80.35 g / 65.38 g/mol = 1.228 mol

O: 19.65 g / 16 g/mol = 1.228 mol

5. dividir entre el menor de los elementos

Zn: 1.228 mol / 1.228 mol = 1

O: 1.228 mol / 1.228 mol = 1

6. Fórmula empírica: ZnO

You need to make 10.0 L of 1.2 M KNO3. What molar ( concentration) would the potassium nitrate solution need to be if you were t

solniwko [45]

Answer:

2.5L [NaCl] concentrate needs to be 4.8 Molar solution before dilution to prep 10L of 1.2M KNO₃ solution.

Explanation:

Generally, moles of solute in solution before dilution must equal moles of solute after dilution.

By definition Molarity = moles solute/volume of solution in Liters

=> moles solute = Molarity x Volume (L)

Apply moles before dilution = moles after dilution ...

=> (Molarity X Volume)before dilution = (Molarity X Volume)after dilution

=> (M)(2.5L)before = (1.2M)(10.0L)after

=> Molarity of 2.5L concentrate = (1.2M)(10.0L)/(2.5L) = 4.8 Molar concentrate
