Rahul and Sonia were playing with blocks and each of them made a train out of them. Both of them thought of measuring the length

of the train using their handspan. By that time Rahul's friend Anupam came and suggested they measure with a measuring tape for a fair result. (a) What is a handspan? (b) Why did Anupam ask both of them to use measuring tape? (c) Why a cubit cannot be used as the standard unit of length?

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

(a) The handspan is the distance between the tip of the thumb and tip of the little finger when the hand is fully stretched.

b) It is impossible for them to obtain an accurate result by the use of a handspan because it doesn't use any standard unit for measurement. It is entirely subjective and highly prone to human errors.

c) Anupam  is quite intelligent and active

Do all organisms have organs? Explain
Anvisha [2.4K]

Answer:

No, there are some organisms that only have one cell, although there are organ systems that are made up of many cells. Not all organisms have organ systems.

Explanation:

For example, the Trichoplax. It is an animal with no organs that is tiny and multicellular, and only feeds on microalgae. A Trichoplax are flat organisms about a millimetre in diameter with no internal structures and typically have two cellular layers. These organisms live in the oceans and seas all around the world but are not necessarily found in their natural habitat, more so in captivity such as a marine aquarium. Trichoplax are found to live in symbiosis with such things as bacteria and others in the oceans and seas.

When a 2.5 mol of sugar (C12H22O11) are added to a certain amount of water the boiling point is raised by 1 Celsius degree. If 2
Mademuasel [1]

Answer is: boiling point will be changed by 4°C.

Chemical dissociation of aluminium nitrate in water: Al(NO₃)₃ → Al³⁺(aq) + 3NO⁻(aq).

Change in boiling point: ΔT =i · Kb · b.

Kb - molal boiling point elevation constant of water is 0.512°C/m, this the same for both solution.

b -  molality, moles of solute per kilogram of solvent., this is also same for both solution, because ther is same amount of substance.

i - Van't Hoff factor.

Van't Hoff factor for sugar solution is 1, because sugar do not dissociate on ions.

Van't Hoff factor for aluminium nitrate solution is approximately 4, because it dissociates on four ions (one aluminium cation and three nitrate anions). So ΔT is four times bigger.

What mass of hydrochloric acid (in grams) can 2.7 g of sodium bicarbonate neutralize? (Hint: Begin by writing a balanced equatio
Julli [10]

Answer:

1.17 grams of HCl can neutralize 2.7 grams sodium bicarbonate

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Mass of sodium bicarbonate = 2.7 grams

Step 2: The balanced equation

HCl + NaHCO3 ⇔  NaCl + H2O + CO2

Step 3: Calculate moles NaHCO3

moles NaHCO3 =2.7 g / 84 g/mol= 0.032 moles

Step 4: Calculate moles HCl

For 1 mol NaHCO3 we need 1 mol HCl

For 0.032 moles NaHCO3 = 0.032 moles HCl

Step 5: Calculate mass HCl

Mass HCl = moles HCl * molar mass HCl

mass HCl = 0.032 * 36.46 g/mol= 1.17 grams

1.17 grams of HCl can neutralize 2.7 grams sodium bicarbonate

Un mol de amoniaco Tiene una masa molar de 17 g y ocupa un volumen de 22.4 l qué volumen ocupa el 50 g amoniaco en condiciones n
mr_godi [17]

Answer:

V  = 65.81 L

Explanation:

En este caso, debemos usar la expresión para los gases ideales, la cual es la siguiente:

PV = nRT  (1)

Donde:

P: Presion (atm)

V: Volumen (L)

n: moles

R: constante de gases (0.082 L atm / mol K)

T: Temperatura (K)

De ahí, despejando el volumen tenemos:

V = nRT / P   (2)

Sin embargo como estamos hablando de condiciones normales de temperatura y presión, significa que estamos trabajando a 0° C (o 273 K) y 1 atm de presión. Lo que debemos hacer primero, es calcular los moles que hay en 50 g de amoníaco, usando su masa molar de 17 g/mol:

n = 50 / 17 = 2.94 moles

Con estos moles, reemplazamos en la expresión (2) y calculamos el volumen:

V = 2.94 * 0.082 * 273 / 1

<h2>V = 65.81 L</h2>
