Define the concentration measurements of parts per million

Chemistry
1 answer:
enyata [817]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Explanation:

Parts per million (ppm) is the number of units of mass of a contaminant per million units of total mass

ppm (or ppmm) is used to measure the concentration of a contaminant in soils and sediments. In that case 1 ppm equals 1 mg of substance per kg of solid (mg/kg).

Calculate the mass in grams of 1.72×10^24 molecules of formaldehyde. The chemical formula for formaldehyde is CH2O.
pishuonlain [190]

Answer: m= 85.8 g CH2O

Explanation: First step is convert the molecules of CH2O to moles using the Avogadro's Number.

1.72x10²⁴ molecules CH2O x 1 mole CH2O / 6.022x10²³ molecules CH2O

= 2.86 moles CH2O

Next is convert the moles of CH2O to mass using the molar mass of CH2O

2.86 moles CH2O x 30 g CH2O / 1 mole CH2O

= 85.8 g CH2O

What causes the jet stream to move farther south?
Anni [7]
<span>Jet streams are the major means of transport for weather systems.  A jet stream is an area of strong winds ranging from 120-250 mph that can be thousands of miles long, a couple of hundred miles across and a few miles deep.  Jet streams usually sit at the boundary between the troposphere and the stratosphere at a level called the tropopause.  This means most jet streams are about 6-9 miles off the ground. Figure A is a cross section of a jet stream.
</span>

The dynamics of jet streams are actually quite complicated, so this is a very simplified version of what creates jets.  The basic idea that drives jet formation is this:  a strong horizontal temperature contrast, like the one between the North Pole and the equator, causes a dramatic increase in horizontal wind speed with height.  Therefore, a jet stream forms directly over the center of the strongest area of horizontal temperature difference, or the front.  As a general rule, a strong front has a jet stream directly above it that is parallel to it.  Figure B shows that jet streams are positioned just below the tropopause (the red lines) and above the fronts, in this case, the boundaries between two circulation cells carrying air of different temperatures.

1. A student tried to solve the following problem by selecting the tile as shown. What, if anything, did the student do wrong?
slega [8]

Answer:

B. The student chose the correct tile, but needs to flip the tile to make the units cancel

Explanation:

Based on the reaction:

2AgNO₃(aq) + Cu(s) → 2Ag(s) + Cu(NO₃)₂ (aq)

<em>2 moles of AgNO₃ react per mole of Cu producing 2 moles of Ag and 1 mole of Cu(NO₃)₂</em>

Thus, if you want to produce 6.75moles of Cu(NO₃)₂ you need:

6.75moles of Cu(NO_3)_2  \frac{2 mol AgNO_3 }{1 mol Cu(NO_3)_2} = 13.50 moles of AgNO₃ are needed

Thus, if you analize the tile shown by the student:

<em>B. The student chose the correct tile, but needs to flip the tile to make the units cancel</em>
