Suppose the price of gasoline increases 10% and quantity of gasoline demanded in Orlando drops 5% per day. Demand for gasoline i
grin007 [14]

Answer:

The correct answer is;

Demand for gasoline in Orlando is price inelastic.

Explanation:

The elasticity is the degree of response to a change in price or quantity supplied to the the quantity demanded. An elastic demand responds positively to change in price, while an inelastic demand means that when there is a price increase, the quantity demanded remains the same and where there is a drop in price the quantity demanded remains constant.

If a small change in price results in a large change in demand then the good is said to be price elastic

In the question the price increases by 10% while the quantity demanded drops 5 % daily. Therefore it is price inelastic

What would be the temperature of 0.6 moles of fluorine that occupy 15 L at 2,300 mmHg?
Anna [14]

Answer: The temperature of 0.6 moles of fluorine that occupy 15 L at 2,300 mmHg is 920 K

Explanation:

According to ideal gas equation:

PV=nRT

P = pressure of gas = 2300 mm Hg = 3.02 atm  (760mmHg=1atm)

V = Volume of gas = 15 L

n = number of moles = 0.6

R = gas constant =0.0821Latm/Kmol

T =temperature = ?

T=\frac{PV}{nR}

T=\frac{3.02atm\times 15L}{0.0821Latm/K mol\times 0.6mol}=920K

Thus the temperature of 0.6 moles of fluorine that occupy 15 L at 2,300 mmHg is 920 K

A hydrocarbon contains 85.7% carbon and the remainder
Viefleur [7K]

Answer:

CH₂ ;  67.1 %

Explanation:

To determine the empirical formula we need to find what the mole ratio is in whole numbers of the atoms in the compound. To do that we will first need the atomic weights of C and H and then perform our calculation

Assume 100 grams of the compound.

# mol C = 85.7 g / 12.01 g/mol = 7.14 mol

# mol H = 14.3 g /  1.008 g/mol = 14.19 mol

The proportion is 14.9 mol H/ 7.14 mol C = 2 mol H/ 1 mol C

So the empirical formula is CH₂

For the second part we will need to first calculate the theoretical yield for the 12.03 g NaBH₄  reacted and then calculate the percent yield given the 0.295 g B₂H₆ produced.

We need to calculate the moles of  NaBH₄ ( M.W = 37.83 g/mol )

1.203 g  NaBH₄ / 37.83 g/mol =  0.0318 mol

Theoretical yield from balanced chemical equation:

0.0318 mol NaBH₄ x 1 mol B₂H₆ / mol NaBH₄ = 0.0159 mol B₂H₆

Theoretical mass yield B₂H₆ = 0.0159 mol x 27.66 g/ mol =  0.440 g

% yield = 0.295 g/ 0.440 g x 100 = 67.1 %

The following reaction is exothermic. C6H12O6(s)+6O2(g)⇌6CO2(g)+6H2O(g)C6H12O6(s)+6O2(g)⇌6CO2(g)+6H2O(g) Predict the effect (shi
Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

According to Le Chatelier's principle, increasing the reaction temperature of an exothermic reaction causes a shift to the left and decreasing the reaction temperature causes a shift to the right.

Explanation:

C6H12O6(s) + 6O2(g) ⇌6CO2(g) + 6H2O(g)

We are told that the forward reaction is exothermic, meaning heat is removed from the reacting substance to the surroundings.

According to Le Chatelier's principle,

1. for an exothermic reaction, on increasing the temperature, there is a shift in equilibrium to the left and formation of the product is favoured.

2. if the temperature of the system is decreased, the equilibrium shifts to right and the formation of the reactants is favoured.

3. if the reaction temperature is kept constant, the system is at equilibrium and there is no shift to the right nor to the left.

A community consists of all the organisms in an ecosystem that belong to the same species.
choli [55]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

A community consists of all the organisms in an ecosystem that belong to the same species. Population density occurs when two or more organisms seek the same resource at the same time. A carrying capacity is anything that restricts the number of individuals in a population.
