Let us assume that there is a 100g sample of Opal. The masses of each element will be:
29.2g Si
33.3g O
37.5g H2O
Now we divide each constituent's mass by its Mr to get the moles present
Si: (29.2 / 28) = 1.04
O: (33.3 / 16) = 2.08
H2O: (37.5 / 18) = 2.08
Now we divide by the smallest number and obtain:
Si: 1
O: 2
H2O: 2
Thus, the empirical formula of Opal is:
SiO2 . 2H2O
Answer: An alpha-particle is identical to the nucleus of a normal (atomic mass four) helium atom i.e. a doubly ionised helium atom. Alpha particles (also termed alpha radiation or alpha rays) was the first nuclear radiation to be discovered, beta particles and gamma rays were identified soon after.
Hello:
In this case, we will use the Clapeyron equation:
P = ?
n = 8 moles
T = 250 K
R = 0.082 atm.L/mol.K
V = 6 L
Therefore:
P * V = n * R * T
P * 6 = 8 * 0.082* 250
P* 6 = 164
P = 164 / 6
P = 27.33 atm
Hope that helps!
Answer:
295.7 mL of 24% trichloroacetic acid (tca) is needed .
Explanation:
Let the volume of 24% trichloroacetic acid solution be x
Volume of required 10% trichloroacetic acid solution =8 bottles of 3 ounces
= 24 ounces = 709.68 mL
(1 ounces = 29.57 mL)
Amount of trichloroacetic acid in 24% solution of x volume of solution will be equal to amount of trichloroacetic acid in 10% solution of volume 709.68 mL.

x = 295.7 mL
295.7 mL of 24% trichloroacetic acid (tca) is needed .
The ring shape of the Cartwheel Galaxy is due to collisions with another galaxy.
<h3>What causes the ring shape of the Cartwheel Galaxy?</h3>
The unusual shape of the Cartwheel Galaxy is due to a collision with a smaller galaxy. The recent star burst has lighted up the Cartwheel rim which has a diameter larger than that of the Milky Way galaxy in which our planet exists. The Cartwheel Galaxy is a lenticular ring galaxy which is about 500 million light-years away. This galaxy was discovered by Fritz Zwicky in the year 1941.
So we can conclude that the ring shape of the Cartwheel Galaxy is due to collisions with another galaxy.
