Birds cause a lot of damage to airplanes every year. To study this problem, the U.S. Air Force invented a chicken cannon. Air Fo

rce scientists use the cannon to shoot chicken bodies at airplanes in controlled tests. Then they analyze the damage the chicken bodies caused.
Evaluate this model. In what way do you think it is helpful? What are some of its limitations?

Answer:

Some of its limitations are to see how it affects the planes and to observe the damage the birds have taken. Also to see how it affects the planes how much damage was done to the chicken. It is helpful because it makes it so fewer birds are hitting or damaging airplanes every year.

You want to make 500 ml of a 1 N solution of sulfuric acid (H2SO4, MW: 98.1). How many grams of sulfuric acid do you need?
umka21 [38]

Answer:

24.525 g of sulfuric acid.

Explanation:

Hello,

Normality (units of eq/L) is defined as:

N=\frac{eq_{solute}}{V_{solution}}

Since the sulfuric acid is the solute, and we already have the volume of the solution (500 mL) but we need it in liters (0.5 L, just divide into 1000), the equivalent grams of solute are given by:

eq_{solute}=N*V_{solution}=1\frac{eq}{L}*0.5L=0.5 eq

Now, since the sulfuric acid is diprotic (2 hydrogen atoms in its formula) 1 mole of sulfuric acid has 2 equivalent grams of sulfuric acid, so the mole-mass relationship is developed to find its required mass as follows:

m_{H_2SO_4}=0.5eqH_2SO_4(\frac{1molH_2SO_4}{2 eqH_2SO_4}) (\frac{98.1 g H_2SO_4}{1 mol H_2SO_4} )\\m_{H_2SO_4}=24.525 g H_2SO_4

Best regards.

Why is the mass of the third subatomic particle ignored?
dmitriy555 [2]

Answer: The mass of electrons is mostly ignored because electrons are extremely small compared to neutrons and protons.

Explanation: A proton is about 1,836 times the size of an electron.

On the periodic table, the atomic number for each element can be found. This number is found by measuring the weight of 6.02 x 10^23 atoms of the element in grams. Electrons aren't ignored when finding exact math, but for the sake of simplification high school teachers will generally have you only count the number of protons and neutrons when calculating the mass of atoms.

You wish to prepare a buffer consisting of acetic acid and sodium acetate with a total acetic acetate plus acetate concentration
vovangra [49]

<u>Ans: Acetic acid = 90.3 mM and Sodium acetate = 160 mM</u>

Given:

Acetic Acid/Sodium Acetate buffer of pH = 5.0

Let HA = acetic acid

A- = sodium acetate

Total concentration [HA] + [A-] = 250 mM ------(1)

pKa(acetic acid) = 4.75

Based on Henderson-Hasselbalch equation

pH = pKa + log[A-]/[HA]

[A-]/[HA] = 10^(pH-pKa) = 10^(5-4.75) = 10^0.25 = 1.77

[A-] = 1.77[HA] -----(2)

From (1) and (2)

[HA] + 1.77[HA] = 250 mM

[HA] = 250/2.77 = 90.25 mM

[A-] = 1.77(90.25) = 159.74 mM

aseous methane will react with gaseous oxygen to produce gaseous carbon dioxide and gaseous water . Suppose 5.5 g of methane is
maksim [4K]

Answer:

There is 9.6 grams of CO2 produced

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Mass of methane = 5.50 grams

Molar mass of methane = 16.04 g/mol

Mass of oxygen = 13.9 grams

Molar mass of oxygen = 32.0 g/mol

Step 2: The reaction

CH4(g) + 2O2(g) → CO2(g) + 2H2O(g)

Step 3: Calculate number of moles

Moles = mass / molar mass

Moles methane = 5.50 grams / 16.04 g/mol

Moles methane = 0.343 moles

Moles oxygen = 13.9 grams / 32.0 g/mol

Moles oxygen = 0.434 moles

For 1 mol CH4 we need 2 moles O2 to produce 1 mol CO2 and 2 moles H2O

O2 is the limiting reactant. It will completely react (0.434 moles).

There will react 0.434/2 = 0.217 moles CH4

There will remain 0.343-0.217 = 0.126 moles CH4

There will be produced 0.434 moles of H2O and

0.434/2 =0.217 moles of CO2

Step 4: Calculate mass of products

Mass = moles * molar mass

Mass CO2 = 0.217 moles ¨44.01 g/mol

Mass CO2 = 9.6 grams

Mass H2O = 0.434 moles * 18.02

Mass H2O = 7.8 grams
