How does light travel?

quester [9]

Answer:

Dinitrogen tetroxide, commonly referred to as nitrogen tetroxide (NTO), and occasionally (usually among ex-USSR/Russia rocket engineers) as amyl, is the chemical compound N2O4.

What occurs as two atoms of fluorine combine to become a molecule of fluorine?

algol [13]

When two atoms of Florine combines, they share an electron pair to complete it's octet. This result is formation of single bond between two fluorine atoms. This process is exothermic in nature, and hence, heat is liberated during the process of bond formation. <span />

3.5g of a Certain compound X, known to be made of carbon, hydrogen, and perhaps oxygen, and to have a molecular molar mass of 15

shutvik [7]

Answer:

C₅H₁₀O₅

Explanation:

1. Calculate the mass of each element in 2.78 mg of X.

(a) Mass of C

$\text{Mass of C} = \text{5.13 g CO}_{2}\times \dfrac{\text{12.01 g C}}{\text{44.01 g }\text{CO}_{2}}= \text{1.400 g C}$

(b) Mass of H

$\text{Mass of H} = \text{2.10 g H$_{2}$O}\times \dfrac{\text{2.016 g H}}{\text{18.02 g H$_{2}$O}} = \text{0.2349 g H}$

(c) Mass of O

Mass of O = 3.5 - 1.400 - 0.2349 = 1.87 g

2. Calculate the moles of each element

$\text{Moles of C = 1400 mg C}\times\dfrac{\text{1 mmol C}}{\text{12.01 mg C }} = \text{116.6 mmol C}\\\\\text{Moles of H = 234.9 mg H} \times \dfrac{\text{1 mmol H}}{\text{1.008 mg H}} = \text{233.1 mmol H}\\\\\text{Moles of O = 1870 mg O} \times \dfrac{\text{1 mmol O}}{\text{16.00 mg O}} = \text{116 mmol O}$

3. Calculate the molar ratios

Divide all moles by the smallest number of moles.

$\text{C: } \dfrac{116.6}{116.6}= 1\\\\\text{H: } \dfrac{233.1}{116.6} = 1.999\\\\\text{O: } \dfrac{116}{116.6} = 1.00$

4. Round the ratios to the nearest integer

C:H:O = 1:2:1

5. Write the empirical formula

The empirical formula is CH₂O.

6. Calculate the molecular formula.

EF Mass = (12.01 + 2.016 + 16.00) u = 30.03 u

The molecular formula is an integral multiple of the empirical formula.

MF = (EF)ₙ

$n = \dfrac{\text{MF Mass}}{\text{EF Mass }} = \dfrac{\text{150 u}}{\text{30.03 u}} = 5.00 \approx 5$

MF = (CH₂O)₅ = C₅H₁₀O₅

The molecular formula of X is C₅H₁₀O₅.

Answer:

El cocodrilo se arrastró durante 20.833 segundos.

Explanation:

El enunciado presenta omisiones y errores conceptuales. La forma correcta es la siguiente: <em>"Un cocodrilo se arrastró 25 metros hacia la derecha con una rapidez promedio de 1.2 metros por segundo. ¿Cuántos segundos se arrastró el cocodrilo?"</em>

Consideremos que el cocodrilo tiene un movimiento rectilíneo uniforme, el tiempo requerido para el recorrido se calcula con la siguiente ecuación cinemática:

$t = \frac{x}{v}$ (1)

Donde:

$x$ - Distancia recorrida, en metros.

$v$ - Rapidez del cocodrilo, en metros por segundo.

$t$ - Tiempo, en segundos.

Si $x = 25\,m$ y $v = 1.2\,\frac{m}{s}$ , entonces el tiempo empleado por el cocodrilo es:

$t = \frac{25\,m}{1.2\,\frac{m}{s} }$

$t = 20.833\,s$

El cocodrilo se arrastró durante 20.833 segundos.

Which hybrid orbitals overlap to form the sigma bonds between the indicated atoms in xanthine?

arsen [322]

The highlighted atoms have sp2 - sp3 hybridization. The highlighted atoms are carbon and nitrogen as shown.

The structure of Xanthine is shown in the image attached to this answer. The indicated atoms are Carbon and nitrogen as shown. Let us remember that hybridization has to do with the mixing of atomic orbitals to form appropriate hybrid orbitals that are suitable for overlap with orbitals of other atoms.

The highlighted carbon atom is sp2 hybridized because it has a carbon nitrogen double bond while the highlighted nitrogen atom is sp3 hybridized. Therefore, the highlighted atoms have sp2 - sp3 hybridization.
