Answer:

Most higher risk volcanoes are far from California’s largest cities and several produce heat that’s used to generate electricity in what are the world’s most productive geothermal power plants, such as the Salton Buttes, 160 miles southeast of Los Angeles, and the Clear Lake Volcanic Field 85 miles north of San Francisco that powers the Geysers steam field.

Calculate the concentration imports per million ppm of DDT if a sample size of 5000 g contained 0.10 g DDT
nevsk [136]

Answer:

20ppm

Explanation:

parts per million are defined as the mass of solute in mg (In this case, mass of DDT) per kg of sample.

To solve this question we must find the mass of DDT in mg and the mass of sample in kg:

<em>Mass DDT:</em>

0.10g * (1000mg / 1g) = 100mg

<em>Mass sample:</em>

5000g * (1kg / 1000g) = 5kg

Parts per Million:

100mg / 5kg =

<h3>20ppm</h3>

A compound is found to contain 38.65 % carbon, 16.25 % hydrogen, and 45.09 % nitrogen by mass. what is the empirical formula for
iren [92.7K]

The molar mass of carbon is 12, hydrogen is 1, and nitrogen is 14, hence the ratio are:

 

C = 38.65 / 12 = 3.22

H = 16.25 / 1 = 16.25

N = 45.09 / 14 = 3.22

 

Divide the three by the lowest ratio which is 3.22:

 

C = 3.22 / 3.22 = 1

H = 16.25 / 3.22 = 5

N = 3.22 / 3.22 = 1

 

So the empirical formula is:

CHN

Boron has an atomic mass of 10.811. What does this mean?
icang [17]

Answer:

Knowing that boron has an atomic mass of 10,811 means that all boron isotopes on average weigh 10,811 u.

Explanation:

The atomic mass of an atom is the mass of the atom measured in u (unified atomic mass unit), although we can also express it as Da (Dalton's unit)

Atomic mass refers to the average mass that all isotopes of that element have.

When we speak of isotopes we are referring to the element itself but with a different number of neutrons, which makes it modify its mass number.

a culinary student fills a 40ml container with 37.2 grams of vegetable oil.What is the density of the oil
Lynna [10]

Answer:

<h2>0.93 g/mL</h2>

Explanation:

The density of a substance can be found by using the formula

density =  \frac{mass}{volume} \\

From the question

mass = 37.2 g

volume = 40 mL

We have

density =  \frac{37.2}{40}  \\  = 0.93

We have the final answer as

<h3>0.93 g/mL</h3>
