Pluto is a dwarf planet, but one of the largest known members, in the Kuiper belt.
The Kuiper Belt extends between 30 AU and 55 AU from the Sun
(1 AU = 1.5 × 10^8 km = distance from Earth to Sun).
Pluto's orbit is highly elliptical. It ranges from 30 AU to 50 AU. When Pluto is closest to the Sun, it is inside the orbit of Neptune (30 AU).
Astronomers class Pluto as a <em>resonant Kuiper belt object</em> (KBO). Because it gets so close to Neptune, its orbit is in <em>resonance</em> with that of Neptune. Pluto makes two orbits for every three of Neptune.
Answer:
2.28 × 10^-3 mol/L
Explanation:
The equation for the equilibrium is
CN^- + H2O ⇌ HCN + OH^-
Ka = 4.9 × 10^-10
KaKb = Kw
4.9 × 10^-10 Kb = 1.00 × 10^-14
Kb = (1.00 × 10^-14)/(4.9 × 10^-10) = 2.05 × 10^-5
Now, we can set up an ICE table
CN^- + H2O ⇌ HCN + OH^-
I/(mol/L) 0.255 0 0
C/(mol/L) -x +x +x
E/(mol/L) 0.255 - x x x
Ka = x^2/(0.255 - x) = 2.05 × 10^-5
Check for negligibility
0.255/(2.05 × 10^-5) = 12 000 > 400. ∴ x ≪ 0.255
x^2 = 0.255(2.05 × 10^-5) = 5.20 × 10^-6
x = sqrt(5.20 × 10^-6) = 2.28 × 10^-3
[OH^-] = x mol/L = 2.28 × 10^-3 mol/L
Look to be honest, I don't know how to work out the problem, but my teacher, and my says it takes 8 minutes for the Sun's light to reach
hope my answer works :)
Answer:
87.9%
Explanation:
Balanced Chemical Equation:
HCl + NaOH = NaCl + H2O
We are Given:
Mass of H2O = 9.17 g
Mass of HCl = 21.1 g
Mass of NaOH = 43.6 g
First, calculate the moles of both HCl and NaOH:
Moles of HCl: 21.1 g of HCl x 1 mole of HCl/36.46 g of HCl = 0.579 moles
Moles of NaOH: 43.6 g of NaOH x 1 mole of NaOH/40.00 g of NaOH = 1.09 moles
Here you calculate the mole of H2O from the moles of both HCl and NaOH using the balanced chemical equation:
Moles of H2O from the moles of HCl: 0.579 moles of HCl x 1 mole of H2O/1 mole of HCl = 0.579 moles
Moles of H2O from the moles of NaOH: 1.09 moles of HCl x 1 mole of H2O/1 mole of NaOH = 1.09 moles
From the calculations above, we can see that the limiting reagent is HCl because it produced the lower amount of moles of H2O. Therefore, we use 0.579 moles and NOT 1.09 moles to calculate the mass of H2O:
Mass of H2O: 0.579 moles of H2O x 18.02 g of H2O/1 mole of H2O = 10.43 g
% yield of H2O = actual yield/theoretical yield x 100= 9.17 g/10.43 g x 100 = 87.9%
At 12 mph, how long does it take to go 13.1 miles?
We know that distance = rate * time
So we know that 13.1 = 12 * time
We can now see that time = 13.1/12 = 1.092 (hours)
That's approximately 1 hour and .092*60=5.52 minutes.
