Answer:

12.455≈12.5 tons

Explanation:

1 US gallon of water (gal) = 8.35 pounds of water (lb wt.)

so we divide 208,000 by 8.35 to covert to pounds

then divide the pounds by 2000 to convert to tons.

A precipitate forms when mixing solutions of sodium fluoride (NaF) and lead II nitrate (Pb(NO3)2). Complete and balance the net
Leya [2.2K]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

The molecular equation shows all the compounds involved in the reaction.

The molecular equation is as follows;

2NaF(aq) + Pb(NO3)2(aq) -------> PbF2(s) + 2NaNO3(aq)

The complete ionic equation shows all the ions involved in the reaction

The complete ionic equation;

2Na^+(aq) + 2F^-(aq) + Pb^2+(aq) + 2NO3^-(aq) -------->PbF(s) + 2Na^+(aq) +2NO3^-(aq)

The net Ionic equation shows the ions that actually participated in the reaction

The net ionic equation is;

2F^-(aq) + Pb^2+(aq)--------> PbF(s)

Pls help Which statement is true about the environment of urban areas?
wel

The correct answer is A. Urban areas have higher temperatures.

Explanation

Urban Area is a term to refer to cities. Urban areas are characterized by having a developed infrastructure (wide roads, vehicular bridges, wide platforms, tall buildings, residential areas, industrial areas, among others).

Recent studies affirm that urban areas are warmer than surrounding areas; This phenomenon is because the materials with are built buildings, roads, houses, and others, concentrate the sun's rays, increasing the temperature of cities. In addition, the lack of trees deepens this phenomenon, because the trees contribute to cooling by physicochemical processes such as evapotranspiration.

According to the above, it is possible to affirm that urban areas are hotter than their surrounding area because they lack vegetation, and the materials with which it is built contribute to the increase in temperature.

On the other hand, urban areas are characterized by habitat fragmentation, more problems with soil erosion, and less rain infiltration into the soil.

Gasoline is a mixture of compounds. A gasoline sample was found to be 2.851% (by mass) octane (C₈H₁₈). 482.6 g of gasoline is co
Pani-rosa [81]

Answer:

See below.

Explanation:

The mass of octane in the sample of gasoline is 0.02851 * 482.6 =  13.759 g of octane.

The balanced equation is:

2C8H18(l)  +  25O2(g) ---->  16CO2(g)  +   18H2O(g)

From the equation, using  atomic masses:

228.29 g of  octane forms 704 g of CO2 and 324.3 g of H2O

So the mass of CO2 formed from the combustion of 13.759 g of octane = (704 * 13.759) / 228.29

= 42.43 g of CO2.

Amount of water = 324.3 * 13.759) / 228.29

= 19.55 g of H2O.
