An air mass is a large volume of air in the atmosphere thats mostly uniform in temperature and moisture. Air masses can extend thousands of kilometers across the surface of the Earth, and can reach from ground level to the stratosphere/10 miles into the atmosphere. an air mass over northern Canada is a continental polar air mass and is cold and dry. One that forms over the Indian Ocean is called a maritime tropical air mass and is warm and humid.

Calculate the number of moles in a 2.98 g sample of aluminum.
Ksju [112]
Molar mass <span>Aluminium ( Al) = 26.98 g/mol

1 mole ------------ 26.98 g
? mole ----------- 2.98 g

moles Al = 2.98 x 1 / 26.98

moles Al = 2.98 / 26.98

= 0.110 moles

hope this helps!

A mixture of methanol and methyl acetate contains 15.0 wt% methanol.
Usimov [2.4K]

The mixture flow rate in lbm/h = 117.65 lbm/h

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

15.0 wt% methanol

The flow rate of the methyl acetate :100 lbm/h

Required

the mixture flow rate in lbm/h

Solution

mass of methanol(CH₃OH, Mw= 32 kg/kmol) in mixture :

\tt 15\%\times 200~kg=30~kg\\\\mol=\dfrac{mass}{MW}=\dfrac{30~kg}{32~kg/kmol}=0.9375~kmol

mass of the methyl acetate(C₃H₆O₂,MW=74 kg/kmol,85% wt) in 200 kg :

\tt 85\%\times 200=170~kg\\\\mol=\dfrac{170}{74}=2.297~kmol

Flow rate of the methyl acetate in the mixture is to be 100 lbm/h.

1 kg mixture = 0.85 .methyl acetate

So flow rate for mixture :

\tt \dfrac{1~kg~mixture}{0.85~methyl~acetat}\times 100~lbm/h=117.65~lbm/h

Rank the following in terms of decreasing miscibility in C₈H₁₈ (octane), a major component of gasoline:
Aleksandr-060686 [28]

Answer:

In order of decreasing miscibility

C₉H₂₀ (nonane)→C₂H₅F (fluoroethane)→C₂H₅Cl (chloroethane)→H₂O (water)

Explanation:

The solubility of a solid is a measure of its ability to dissolve in a liquid while for liquids,  the miscibility is a measure of thhe liquid to mix with anoyjer liquid resulting in a soltion which can hold any amount of either liquids. Immiscible liquids are those that are not soluble or have very limited solibility with each other.

C₉H₂₀ (nonane)→C₂H₅F (fluoroethane)→C₂H₅Cl (chloroethane)→H₂O (water)

In the order of decreasing miscibility as like dissolve like, ability to dissociate and polar and organic characteristics are considered

How can I explain that orange juice is a homogeneous mixture ?
Masteriza [31]

Answer: It is usually separated from tea leaves by filtration. B Because the composition of the solution is uniform throughout, it is a homogeneous mixture. A Orange juice contains particles of solid (pulp) as well as liquid; it is not chemically pure.
