When Jorge looks at the Moon from Earth, he sees different phases of the Moon depending on the time of the month he observes the

Moon. Why does the Moon have different phases during the month?

Answer:

Because of the revolution of the moon about the earth.

Explanation:

The moon is the natural satellite of the earth; which rotates about its axes and orbits around the earth. As the moon orbits the earth with respect to time, it would complete a revolution in 27.3 days.

During revolution, different phases of the moon can be observed by someone on the earth. This is due to its location at different time during the process. Therefore, Jorge was able to see different phases of the moon because of its revolution about the earth.

What mass in grams would 5.7L of hydrogen gas occupy at STP?​
tekilochka [14]

Answer:  The correct answer is:  " 0.54 g " .

__________________________________________

Explanation:

Note that "hydrogen gas" is:  

H₂ (g)  ;   that is:  a "diatomic element" (diatomic gas) ;

_________________________________________

The molecular weight of "H" is:  1.00794 g ;

   (From the Periodic Table of Elements).

So, the molecular weight of:  H₂ (g)  is:

    " 1.00794 g * 2  = 2.01588 g ; {use calculator) ;

_________________________________________

Note the conversion for a gas at STP:

______

  1 mol of a gas = 22.4 L gas;

___

i.e. " 1 mol / 22.4 L " ;

____

So:     " 5.7 L H₂ (g)  *  \frac{1 mol H_{2} }{22.4 L} *\frac{2.01588 g}{mol} =? ;

The "L" ("literes" cancel out to "1" ;  since "L/L = 1 ;

The "mol" (moles) cancel out to "1" ; since "mol/mol = 1 ;

____

and we are left with:

____

 [5.7 * 2.104588 g ] / 22.4  =  ?  g ;

______________________

→ [ 11.9961516  g ] / 22.4 =

          0.53554248214  g ;l

_____________________________

We round this value to:  " 0.54 g " ;

 → since "5.7 L " has 2 (two) significant figures;  

     22.4 is an exact number conversion;

     and "5.7 L" has fewer significant figures than:

    " 2.104588 " ; or:  " 1.00794 " .

  → as such: We round to "2 (two) significant figures."

Hope this is helpful.  Wishing you the best in your academic endeavors!

The amount of protein in a sample was measured by the sample's absorbance of light at a given wavelength. Using standards, a bes
FinnZ [79.3K]

Answer:

Protein Concentration is 2.82mg/L

Explanation:

According to Beer-Lambert's Law, Absorbance is directly proportional to the concentration.

However, the concentration of a solution can be determined from a calibration curve, in which Absorbance is plotted on the y-axis and the Concentration on the x-axis.

Plotting the best line, the equation of line is used

y = mx + c

where y is absorbance = 0.150

           m is slope = 0.0163

            x is concentration

             c is intercept = 0.104

inserting the values from the question

y = mx + c

0.150 = 0.0163x + 0.104

0.0163x = 0.150 - 0.104

0.0163x = 0.046

Divide both sides by 0.0163

0.0163x/0.0163 = 0.046/0.0163

x = 2.82

Concentration of protein = 2.82 mg/L

Describe the term molarity as it relates to an acid or base.
Sidana [21]
Molarity is expressed as the number of moles of solute per volume of the solution. For example, we are given a solution of 2M NaOH this describes a solution that has 2 moles of NaOH per 1 L volume of the solution. Acids and bases can be measured through the concentrations of H+ and OH- ions in units of molarity. Hope this helps.
