It is basic because of the fact that it has a strong base which is KOH and a weak acid HCN and the strong base causes it to remain more basic.

A typical virus is 5x10-6 cm in diameter. if avogadro's number of these virus particles were laid in a row, how many kilometers
Debora [2.8K]
Answer is: line be long 3,011·10¹³ kilometers.
diametar of virus = 5·10⁻⁶ cm ÷ 100000 = 5·10⁻¹¹ km.
line lenght = 5·10⁻¹¹ km · 6,023·10²³.
line lenght = 3,011·10¹³ km.
Avogadro number = 6,023·10²³.
1 cm = 10⁻² m = 10⁻⁵ km.

Imagine that you are a drop of water in the ocean. Describe a journey through the water cycle. Explain what causes you to change
Scorpion4ik [409]

<em>I am going to use first-person pronouns for this drop of water</em>

[ Start ] Liquid

     I start out as a drop of water among other drops of water in the ocean. I am currently a liquid as I can change shape easily but I do not float up.

[ Middle ] Gas

     The sun feels very hot. From the heat I turn into a gas, specifically water vapor, and float up into the sky.

[ Middle x 2 ] Solid

     In the sky I meet up with a lot of my past friends. We form a cloud, and as we grow heavier (the more the merrier) we start to fall down. It is extremely cold now, so we fall down as a solid, also known as hail or snow.

[ End ] Liquid

     We hit the ocean again as we fall from the sky. I'm so happy to be back home as a water drop again!

Have a nice day! - <u>Please note this is very simplified</u>

     I hope this is what you are looking for, but if not - comment! I will edit and update my answer accordingly. (ノ^∇^)

Find the initial temperature of 45.0g of water if its final Temperature after submerging a metal with the mass of 8.5g is 22.0°C
Korolek [52]

The initial temperature of the water that resulted in the final temperature of the water-metal mixture is 20.7 ⁰C.

<em>"Your question is not complete, it seems to be missing the following information;"</em>

the specific heat capacity of the metal is 0.45 J/g⁰C.

The given parameters;

  • <em>mass of water, </em>m_w<em> = 45 g</em>
  • <em>final temperature of the water, </em>t_w<em> = 22 ⁰C</em>
  • <em>mass of the metal, m = 8.5 g</em>
  • <em>initial temperature of the metal, t = 82 ⁰C.</em>
  • <em>specific heat capacity of the metal, c = 0.45 J/g⁰C.</em>

The initial temperature of the water will be calculated by applying the principle of conservation of energy;

<em>heat gained by water = heat lost by metal</em>

Q_{water} = Q_{metal}

m_wc_w \Delta t_w = mc\Delta t

where;

c_w <em>is the specific heat capacity of the water = 4.184 J/g⁰C.</em>

<em />

<em>Substitute the given values;</em>

45 x 4.184 x (22 - t) = 8.5 x 0.45 x (85 - 22)

4142.16  - 188.28t = 240.98

188.28t  = 4142.16  - 240.98

188.28t  = 3901.18

t = \frac{3901.18}{188.28} \\\\t = 20.7 \ ^0 C

Thus, the initial temperature of the water that resulted in the final temperature of the water-metal mixture is 20.7 ⁰C.

A student makes a compound of sulfur and oxygen. She uses 5.00 g of sulfur and 4.99 g of oxygen, and all of the elemental substa
victus00 [196]
First, we apply the law of conservation of mass which states that the total mass in a system remains constant.
Therefore, there must be 5.00 g of sulfur and 4.99 g of oxygen in the product. Now, we determine the mass percentage using:

Mass % = (mass of sulfur x 100) / total mass of compound

Mass % = (5 * 100) / (5 + 4.99)

Mass % = 50.05%

The product contains 50.05% sulfur by mass.
