The question is incomplete. the complete question is:

A chemistry student needs 35.0 g of pentane for an experiment. By consulting the CRC Handbook of Chemistry and Physics, the student discovers that the density of pentane is 0.626 g/cm^3. Calculate the volume of pentane the student should pour out.Round your answer to 3 significant digits.

Answer: The volume of pentane the student should pour out is 55.9 ml

Explanation:

Density is defined as the mass contained per unit volume.

To calculate volume of a substance, we use the equation:

\text{Density of pentane}=\frac{\text{Mass of pentane}}{\text{Volume of pentane}}

We are given:

Density of pentane = 0.626g/cm^3

Mass of pentane = 35.0 g

Putting values in above equation, we get:

0.626g/cm^3=\frac{35.0g}{\text {Volume of pentane}}\\\\\text{Volume of pentane}=55.9cm^3=55.9ml

(Conversion factor: 1cm^3=1ml)

Hence, the volume of pentane is 55.9 ml

Compare and contrast Lamarck's and Darwin's theories of change over time.36a. What are the similarities? What are the difference
frosja888 [35]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

Lanark proposed a theory of evolution hinged on use and disuse of body parts. This is a theory that upholds the transfer of acquired traits to offsprings. Darwin's theory of evolution was rather based on natural selection or 'survival of the fittest'. Darwin's theory has more evidence backing it compared to Lamarck's theory. The field of genetics which appeared long after Darwin's death confirmed that inherited traits are indeed passed from parents to offsprings. These inherited traits are usually those that give organisms an edge over others in their environment.

Earthworms are brown and not green or beige because, the brown earthworms have the same colour as the soil and are better enabled to escape from predators. From Darwin's theory, the brown earthworms are the 'fittest' hence they survive in their environment. Lamarck's theory may approach the matter from the point that earthworms move with their bodies on the soil more frequently, hence they 'acquired' the brown colour and passed it on to their offspring.

From the activity, "Hiding in the Background", individual worms spent their entire life cycle in either green or beige colour. Their colour didn't change as a result of the environment where they lived, rather the green earthworms were more in number, not particularly because of any specific changes the earthworms themselves had undergone, but because most of their predators concentrated on eating the beige worms. As a result of this, there were many green worms when the next generation began compared to the number of beige worms. Hence, there were more green earthworms.

Answer this ASAP please!! Question: How many magnesium atoms does magnesium oxide need? (Science) (ONLY ANSWER IF YOU KNOW WHAT
aliina [53]

Answer:

40.3 for the unit that represents the minimum amount of magnesium oxide I beilieve.

Explanation:

Magnesium atoms are heavier than oxygen atoms, so we expect more than 50% of magnesium in the weight composition. Taking just one atom of Mg and one atom of O you will get a mass of 16.0 + 24.3 = 40.3.

Hope this helps! Please tell me if you have any questions :))

1.5 of potassium ioxcide in 150cm^3 of solution
lara [203]

Answer:

Explanation:

I'm not sure what is being asked, not the units of "1.5."  I don't know of potassium "ioxicide."  Was "dioxide" intended?

I'll assume the question is "What is the concentration, in Molar, of 1.5g of potassium dioxide in 150cm^3 of water (150cm^3 is 150 ml).

The molar mass of K2O, potassium dioxide, is 94.2 g/mole.  1.5g is (1.5g/94.2 g/mole) or 0.0159 moles of K2O.  The definition of Molar is moles/liter.  So take the moles of K2O and divide by the liters, which is 0.150L in this case.

(0.0159 moles K2)/0.150 L  = 0.106 M K2O

What mass of co was used up in the reaction with an excess of oxygen gas if 24.7 g of carbon dioxide is formed
sleet_krkn [62]
Balance Chemical Equation of this reaction is,

                                      2 CO  +  O₂   →   2CO₂

Acc. to this reaction,

88 g (2 mole) of CO₂ was produced when  =  56 g (2 mole)of CO was reacted
So, 
24.7 g of CO₂ will be produced by reacting =  X g of CO

Solving for X,

                                    X  =  (56 g × 24.7 g) ÷ 88 g

                                    X  =  2.26 g ÷ 88 g

                                    X  =  0.0257 g of CO

Result:
           
0.0257 g of CO is required to be reacted with excess of O₂ to produce 24.7 g of CO₂.
