The total weight of both objects : 7.035 x 10⁻⁸ kg

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

The weight of a grain of sand : 3.5 x 10⁻¹⁰ kg

The weight of one hair from his eyebrow : 7 x 10⁻⁸ kg

Required

The total weight of both objects

Solution

Scientific Notation consists of 2 parts  

1. the first part: the first digit followed by the decimal point  

2. The second part: the power of 10 (the exponents).which shows the number of digits after the decimal point  

To add/subtract, the exponents must be the same and then add/subtract the coefficient

  • convert the largest exponent  (7 x 10⁻⁸)

7 x 10⁻⁸ = 700 x 10⁻¹⁰

  • add the coefficients  

\tt =(3.5+700)\times 10^{-10}\\\\=703.5\times 10^{-10}\\\\=7.035\times 10^{-8}

Calculate the number of grams of CO that can react with 0.400 kg of Fe2O3.
aleksandr82 [10.1K]

Answer:

mass of CO = 210.42 g

mass in three significant figures = 210. g

Explanation:

Given data:

mass of Fe2O3 = 0.400 Kg

mass of CO= ?

Solution:

chemical equation:

Fe2O3 + 3CO → 2Fe + 3CO2

Now we will calculate the molar mass of  Fe2O3 and CO.

Molar mass of  Fe2O3 = (55.845 × 2) + (16 × 3) = 159.69 g/mol

Molar mass of CO = 12+ 16 = 28 g/mol

now we will convert the kg of Fe2O3 in g.

mass of Fe2O3 = 0.400 kg × 1000 = 400 g

number of moles of Fe2O3  = 400 g/ 159.69 g/mol = 2.505 mol

mass of CO = moles of Fe2O3 × 3( molar mass of CO)

mass of CO = 2.505 mol × 84 g/mol

mass of CO = 210.42 g

mass in three significant figures = 210. g

Using the Brønsted-Lowry concept of acids and bases, identify the Brønsted-Lowry acid and base in each of the following reaction
Luden [163]

Answer:

1. HSO³⁻(aq) + H₂O(l) → H₂SO₃(aq) + OH⁻(aq)

<u>The Brønsted-Lowry acid is H₂O and the Brønsted-Lowry base is HSO³⁻</u>

<u />

2. (CH₃)₃N(g) + BCl₃(g) → (CH₃)₃NBCl₃(s)

<u>There are no Brønsted-Lowry acids and bases in this reaction.</u>

Explanation:

According to the Brønsted-Lowry concept, when an acid (HA) and a base (B) undergoes a chemical reaction, the acid (HA) loses a proton and forms its conjugate base (A⁻), whereas the base gains (B) the proton to form its conjugate acid (HB⁺).

<em>The chemical equation for this reaction is:</em>

HA  +  B  ⇌  A⁻  +  HB⁺

Given reactions:

1. HSO³⁻(aq) + H₂O(l) → H₂SO₃(aq) + OH⁻(aq)

<u>The Brønsted-Lowry acid is H₂O and the Brønsted-Lowry base is HSO³⁻</u>

Reason: In this reaction, the acid H₂O loses a proton and forms its conjugate base, OH⁻. Whereas, the base HSO³⁻ gains a proton to form its conjugate acid, H₂SO₃.

2. (CH₃)₃N(g) + BCl₃(g) → (CH₃)₃NBCl₃(s)

<u>There are no Brønsted-Lowry acids and bases in this reaction.</u>

Reason: In this reaction, there is no exchange of proton between the acid and the base.

A student wants to remove the salt from a mixture of sand and salt in order to get only pure sand. He adds water to the mixture.
raketka [301]

Answer:

Here is one way: Add water to the mixture. Only the sugar dissolves. This is a physical change.

Explanation:

The sugar would dissolve in water. You could then pour off the solution and wash the remaining sand with a bit more water. Heat the water to evaporate it from the sugar, and the two are separated.
