The ratio of zinc to copper in some alloy is 2 to 5. If 60 kilograms of zinc are used, how many kilograms of copper are needed t

o make this alloy
Chemistry
1 answer:
NemiM [27]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

The correct answer is 150 kilograms.

Explanation:

Based on the given information, the ratio of zinc and copper within the alloy is 2:5. The amount of zinc used in the alloy is 60 kg. Now the amount of copper used within the alloy would be,

Zinc/Copper = 2/5

60/Copper = 2/5

Copper(Cu) = 60*5/2

Cu = 150 Kilograms.

Thus, the amount of Cu used in the alloy is 150 Kg.

Explain why gases condense when they are cooled
Sindrei [870]
We can explain this in a molecular level. We know that the difference between a gas and a liquid of the same composition is how fast their molecules are moving. So given a gas, their molecules are farther and faster when moving, but when they are cooled their bulk kinetic energy decreases. In other words their molecules start to move closer and move slower until it behaves more like a liquid molecule. This is the time when gases condense.

Why cant chemical changes be reversed
kotykmax [81]

Answer:

Throughout the explanation section, the reason behind the given statement is described.

Explanation:

  • The chemicals thus produced were indeed opposite or separate from the reaction mixture, this same reaction wouldn’t change when it's more balanced than some of the reactants.
  • Another reason is that the development of advanced organisms, as well as chemical alterations, is irreversible throughout nature cant undo the chemical modifications.

A Wisconsin farmer taps a maple tree and collects 200 liters of sap. He determines the sucrose (C12H2011) concentration to be 0.
Minchanka [31]

Answer:

6.0 L

Explanation:

Use the dilution equation M1V1 = M2V2

M1 = 0.075 M

V1 = 200 L

M2 = 2.5 M

V2 = ?

Solve for V2 --> V2 = M1V1/M2

V2 = (0.075 M)(200 L) / (2.5 M) = 6.0 L
