Answer:

R = 40 ohms

Explanation:

Given that,

The voltage of outlet, V = 120 V

Current flowing through the device, I = 3 A

We need to find the Resistance rating of the power cord. Let the resistance is R. We know that,

Ohm's law, V = IR

Put all the values,

$R=\dfrac{V}{I}\\\\R=\dfrac{120}{3}\\\\R=40\ \Omega$

So, the resistance rating of the power cord is equal to 40 ohms.

Rank the following solutions in order of increasing acidity (least acidic to most acidic): I: [H3O+] = 1x10−5 II: [OH−] = 1x10−1

kozerog [31]

Answer: option C) II < III < I

i.e [OH−] < [H3O+] < I

Explanation:

First, obtain the pH value of I and II, then compare both with III.

For I

Recall that pH = -log (H+)

So pH3O = -log (H3O+)

= - log (1x10−5)

= 4

For II

pOH = - log(OH-)

= - log(1x10−10)

= 9

For III

pH = 6

Since, pH range from 1 to 14, with values below 7 to be acidic, 7 to be neutral, above 7 to be alkaline: then, 9 < 6 < 4

Thus, the following solutions from least acidic to most acidic is II < III < I

1.The chemical element being the main component of air (it occupies 78% of its volume),

2. The simplest saturated hydrocarbon,

3. Is a result of combining two amino acid molecules,

4. Gas with a pungent odor, soluble in water; hydrogen and nitrogen synthesis product.

5. Common name of aminoacetic acid

(the first has four boxes, the second has five boxes, the third has eight quarters has seven, fifths and seven).

Thank you in advance

1) The main component of air that makes up 78% of the air is Nitrogen.

2) The simplest saturated hydrocarbon is the first member of the alkane family, Methane.

3) Two amino acids combine by forming peptide bonds between the carboxyl group of one amino acid and the amino group of another through dehydration synthesis (loss of 1 molecule of water). Hence, the result of the combination of two amino acids are called Dipeptides.

4) Nitrogen and Hydrogen come together to form only one known water soluble gas with pungent smell, called Ammonia.

5) Aminoacetic acid as its name suggests is an amino acid with the acetyl group. It is the simplest amino acid. The common name for this compound is Glycine.

In Polish/Po polsku

1) Głównym składnikiem powietrza, które stanowi 78% powietrza, jest azot.

2) Najprostszym nasyconym węglowodorem jest pierwszy członek rodziny alkanów, metan.

3) Dwa aminokwasy łączą się, tworząc wiązania peptydowe między grupą karboksylową jednego aminokwasu i grupą aminową innego przez syntezę odwodnienia (utrata 1 cząsteczki wody). Stąd wynik połączenia dwóch aminokwasów nazywa się dipeptydami.

4) Azot i wodór tworzą razem jeden znany gaz rozpuszczalny w wodzie o ostrym zapachu, zwany amoniakiem.

5) Kwas aminooctowy, jak sama nazwa wskazuje, jest aminokwasem z grupą acetylową. To najprostszy aminokwas. Powszechna nazwa tego związku to glicyna.

Hope this Helps!!!

Why must each atom of an element always have the same number of protons?

Yuliya22 [10]

Atoms do not always contain the same number of electrons and protons, although this state is common. When an atom has an equal number of electrons and protons, it has an equal number of negative electric charges (the electrons) and positive electric charges (the protons). The total electric charge of the atom is therefore zero and the atom is said to be neutral. In contrast, when an atom loses or gains an electron (or the rarer case of losing or gaining a proton, which requires a nuclear reaction), the total charges add up to something other than zero.

Under standard-state conditions, which of the following species is the best reducing agent? a. Ag+ b. Pb c. H2 d. Ag e. Mg2+

eimsori [14]

Answer: The correct answer is Option b.

Explanation:

Reducing agents are defined as the agents which help the other substance to get reduced and itself gets oxidized. They undergo oxidation reaction.

$X\rightarrow X^{n+}+ne^-$

For determination of reducing agents, we will look at the oxidation potentials of the substance. Oxidation potentials can be determined by reversing the standard reduction potentials.

For the given options:

Option a: $Ag^+$

This ion cannot be further oxidized because +1 is the most stable oxidation state of silver.

Option b: $Pb$

This metal can easily get oxidized to $Pb^{2+}$ ion and the standard oxidation potential for this is 0.13 V

$Pb\rightarrow Pb^{2+}+2e^-;E^o_{(Pb/Pb^{2+})}=+0.13V$

Option c: $H_2$

This metal can easily get oxidized to $H^{+}$ ion and the standard oxidation potential for this is 0.0 V

$H_2\rightarrow 2H^++2e^-;E^o_{(H_2/H^{+})}=0.0V$

Option d: $Ag$

This metal can easily get oxidized to $Ag^{+}$ ion and the standard oxidation potential for this is -0.80 V

$Ag\rightarrow Ag^{+}+e^-;E^o_{(Ag/Ag^{+})}=-0.80V$

Option e: $Mg^{2+}$

This ion cannot be further oxidized because +2 is the most stable oxidation state of magnesium.

By looking at the standard oxidation potential of the substances, the substance having highest positive $E^o$ potential will always get oxidized and will undergo oxidation reaction. Thus, considered as strong reducing agent.

From the above values, the correct answer is Option b.

The density of solid Cr is 7.15 g/cm3. How many atoms are present per cubic centimeter of Cr?

Masja [62]

To calculate the number of atoms of Cr, we first find the number of moles per unit of cubic centimeter of Cr. Then, use avogadros number for the number of atoms. Calculations are as follows:

1 cm^3 (7.15 g/cm^3) (1 mol / 51.996 g Cr) = 0.14 mol Cr

0.14 mol Cr ( 6.022 x 10^23 atoms Cr / 1 mol Cr ) = 8.28 x 10^22 atoms Cr
