Which compound will give positive Tollen's test?

Andrew [12]

Tollen's test is an organic test that determines whether the sample is an adehyde or not. When aldehydes are present, the reaction forms a silver compound which refers to the other name of Tollen's as silver mirror test. The aldehyde among the choices is C. pentanal

John is carefully pouring a chemical into a beaker when the beaker slips and breaks

Kryger [21]

Following laboratory safety protocols such as wearing personal protective equipment will protect John when the accident occurred.

<h3>What are laboratory safety protocols?</h3>

Laboratory safety protocols are the protocols put in place to ensure safety in the laboratory.

Laboratory safety protocols include the following:

always wear personal protective equipment in the laboratory
do not play in the laboratory
do not eat in the laboratory

Following laboratory safety protocols will help protect us from accidents which occur in the laboratory.

What happened when john was carefully pouring a chemical into a beaker when the beaker slips and breaks is an example of laboratory accident.

Wearing personal protective equipment will protect John.

In conclusion, following laboratory safety protocols will protect us when accidents occur in the laboratory.

An inverted pyramid is being filled with water at a constant rate of 45 cubic centimeters per second. The pyramid, at the top, h

vaieri [72.5K]

Answer:

13.20 cm/s is the rate at which the water level is rising when the water level is 4 cm.

Explanation:

Length of the base = l

Width of the base = w

Height of the pyramid = h

Volume of the pyramid = $V=\frac{1}{3}lwh$

We have:

Rate at which water is filled in cube = $\frac{dV}{dt}= 45 cm^3/s$

Square based pyramid:

l = 6 cm, w = 6 cm, h = 13 cm

Volume of the square based pyramid = V

$V=\frac{1}{3}\times l^2\times h$

$\frac{l}{h}=\frac{6}{13}$

$l=\frac{6h}{13}$

$V=\frac{1}{3}\times (\frac{6h}{13})^2\times h$

$V=\frac{12}{169}h^3$

Differentiating V with respect to dt:

$\frac{dV}{dt}=\frac{d(\frac{12}{169}h^3)}{dt}$

$\frac{dV}{dt}=3\times \frac{12}{169}h^2\times \frac{dh}{dt}$

$45 cm^3/s=3\times \frac{12}{169}h^2\times \frac{dh}{dt}$

$\frac{dh}{dt}=\frac{45 cm^3/s\times 169}{3\times 12\times h^2}$

Putting, h = 4 cm

$\frac{dh}{dt}=\frac{45 cm^3/s\times 169}{3\times 12\times (4 cm)^2}$

$=13.20 cm/s$

13.20 cm/s is the rate at which the water level is rising when the water level is 4 cm.
