The cost of the patch : = 887.84 cents

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

16.2 cm² patch

cost = $3.58/in²

Required

The cost of the patch

Solution

We must pay attention to the conversion factor when changing units

1 cm² = 0.155 in²

16 cm² = 2.48 in²

Cost :

= $3.58/in² x 2.48 in²

= $8.8784

1 dollar is equal to 100 cents, so :

= $8.8784 x 100 cents/$

= 887.84 cents

When aqueous solutions of K3PO4 and Ba(NO3)2 are combined, Ba3(PO4)2 precipitates. Calculate the mass, in grams, of the Ba3(PO4)
Firdavs [7]

Answer:

Mass of Ba₃(PO₄)₂ = 0.0361 g

Explanation:

Given data:

Volume of Ba(NO₃)₂ = 1.2 mL (1.2 × 10⁻³ L )

Molarity of Ba(NO₃)₂ = 0.152 M

Volume of K₃PO₄ = 4.2 mL (4.2 × 10⁻³ L)

Molarity of K₃PO₄ =  0.604 M

Mass of Ba₃(PO₄)₂ produced = ?

Solution:

Chemical equation:

3Ba(NO₃)₂  + 2K₃PO₄  → Ba₃(PO₄)₂  + 6KNO₃

Number of moles of Ba(NO₃)₂ = Molarity × Volume in litter

Number of moles of Ba(NO₃)₂ = 0.152 M × 1.2 × 10⁻³ L

Number of moles of Ba(NO₃)₂ = 0.182 × 10⁻³ mol

Number of moles of K₃PO₄ = Molarity × Volume in litter

Number of moles of K₃PO₄ = 0.604 M × 4.2 × 10⁻³ L

Number of moles of K₃PO₄ = 2.537 × 10⁻³ mol

Now we will compare the moles of Ba₃(PO₄)₂ with K₃PO₄ and Ba(NO₃)₂ .

              Ba(NO₃)₂        :         Ba₃(PO₄)₂

                   3                :               1

              0.182 × 10⁻³    :              1/3 ×0.182 × 10⁻³ = 0.060 × 10⁻³ mol

                K₃PO₄           :          Ba₃(PO₄)₂

                   2                 :                1

              2.537 × 10⁻³     :               1/2 ×  2.537 × 10⁻³= 1.269 × 10⁻³ mol

The number of moles of Ba₃(PO₄)₂ produced by  Ba(NO₃)₂  are less it will limiting reactant.

Mass of Ba₃(PO₄)₂ = moles × molar mass

Mass of Ba₃(PO₄)₂ = 0.060 × 10⁻³ mol × 601.93 g/mol

Mass of Ba₃(PO₄)₂ = 36.12 × 10⁻³ g

Mass of Ba₃(PO₄)₂ = 0.0361 g

A gas occupies a volume of 2.4 L at 14.1 kPa. What volume will the gas occupy at 84.6 kPa?
Naddik [55]

Answer:

  • <u>0.40 L</u>

Explanation:

Boyle's law for gases states that, at constant temperature, the volume and pressure of a fixed amount of gas are inversely related.

Mathematically, that is:

  • PV = constant

  • P₁V₁ = P₂V₂

Here, you have:

  • V₁ = 2.4 L
  • P₁ = 14.1 Kpa
  • P₂ = 84.6 KPa
  • V₂ = ?

Then, you can solve for V₂:

  • V₂ = P₁V₁ / P₂

Substitute and compute:

  • V₂ = 14.1 KPa × 2.4L / 84.6 KPa = 0.40 L ← answer

Analysis of a compound of sulfur, oxygen and fluorine showed that it is 31.42% S and 31.35% O, with F accounting for the remaind
Leya [2.2K]

Answer:

The molecular formula is  SO2F2

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Suppose the mass of compound = 100 grams

The compound contains:

31.42 % S = 31.42 grams S

31.35 % O = 31.35 grams O

100 - 31.42 - 31.35 = 37.23 F

Molar mass of S = 32.065 g/mol

Molar mass F = 19.00 g/mol

Molar mass O = 16.00 g/mol

Step 2: Calculate moles

Moles = mass / molar mass

Moles S = 31.42 grams / 32.065 g/mol

Moles S = 0.9799 moles

Moles 0 = 31.35 grams / 16.00 g/mol

Moles 0 = 1.959 moles

Moles F = 37.23 grams / 19.00 g/mol

Moles F = 1.959 moles

Step 3: Calculate mol ratio

We divide by the smallest amount of moles

S: 0.9799 / 0.9799 = 1

F: 1.959/ 0.9799 = 2

O : 1.959 / 0.9799 = 2

The empirical formula is SO2F2

This formula has a molecular mass of 102.06 g/mol

This means the empirical formula is also the molecular formula : SO2F2

If your in a city, go inside a building immediately. most buildings have lightening rod, so the lightening voltage won't hit on you.
if you're in an open area, don't go under a tree, or it'll hit you and the tree, even if it doesn't hit you, you still cannot take the impact by the exploding tree. leave the water or metal bicycle or stuff that conducts electricity.
