Which statement is true about S-waves?

Chemistry
1 answer:
a_sh-v [17]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

B They travel only through solids.

Explanation:

Seismic s-waves are also known as secondary or shear-waves. They are elastic waves that travels within a body.

  • At a seismic station, they are the second set of waves to arrive after the primary - waves.
  • They can only pass through solid bodies as fluids cannot be sheared.
  • The above mentioned property makes them very useful in determining the interior property of the earth.
  • They are not the slowest seismic waves.

Find the mass of 3.27 x 10^23 molecules of H2SO4. Use 3 significant digits<br> and put the units.
marta [7]

Answer:

Approximately 53.3\; \rm g.

Explanation:

Lookup Avogadro's Number: N_{\rm A} = 6.02\times 10^{23}\; \rm mol^{-1} (three significant figures.)

Lookup the relative atomic mass of \rm H, \rm S, and \rm O on a modern periodic table:

  • \rm H: 1.008.
  • \rm S: 32.06.
  • \rm O: 15.999.

(For example, the relative atomic mass of \rm H is 1.008 means that the mass of one mole of \rm H\! atoms would be approximately 1.008\! grams on average.)

The question counted the number of \rm H_2SO_4 molecules without using any unit. Avogadro's Number N_{\rm A} helps convert the unit of that count to moles.

Each mole of \rm H_2SO_4 molecules includes exactly (1\; {\rm mol} \times N_\text{A}) \approx 6.02\times 10^{23} of these \rm H_2SO_4 \! molecules.

3.27 \times 10^{23} \rm H_2SO_4 molecules would correspond to \displaystyle n = \frac{N}{N_{\rm A}} \approx \frac{3.27 \times 10^{23}}{6.02 \times 10^{23}\; \rm mol^{-1}} \approx 0.541389\; \rm mol of such molecules.

(Keep more significant figures than required during intermediary steps.)

The formula mass of \rm H_2SO_4 gives the mass of each mole of \rm H_2SO_4\! molecules. The value of the formula mass could be calculated using the relative atomic mass of each element:

\begin{aligned}& M({\rm H_2SO_4}) \\ &= (2 \times 1.008 + 32.06 + 4 \times 15.999)\; \rm g \cdot mol^{-1} \\ &= 98.702\; \rm g \cdot mol^{-1}\end{aligned}.

Calculate the mass of approximately 0.541389\; \rm mol of \rm H_2SO_4:

\begin{aligned}m &= n \cdot M \\ &\approx 0.541389\; \rm mol \times 98.702\; \rm g \cdot mol^{-1}\\ &\approx 53.3\; \rm g\end{aligned}.

(Rounded to three significant figures.)

The two isotopes of chlorine are 35/17 cl and 37/17cl. which isotope is the most abundant
Natalka [10]

The most abundant is 35/17 Cl

explanation

This is  because Chlorine  35/17 is the one close to the average atomic mass of chlorine which is  35.46 u making it to be the most abundant.

average atomic mass of chlorine is 35.46 + or- 0.02
