Answer:
According to the Environmental Paper Network's Paper Calculator, it takes about 32 million BTUs of energy to produce 1 ton of virgin paper fiber. To produce 1 ton of recycled paper, it takes about 22 million BTUs.
so the answer could be it takes less Btu to manufacture recycled products than new ones
The molarity of formic acid is 100 mM or
. The dissociation reaction of formic acid is as follows:

The expression for dissociation constant of the reaction will be:
![K_{a}=\frac{[HCOO^{-}][H^{+}]}{[HCOOH]}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=K_%7Ba%7D%3D%5Cfrac%7B%5BHCOO%5E%7B-%7D%5D%5BH%5E%7B%2B%7D%5D%7D%7B%5BHCOOH%5D%7D)
Rearranging,
![[HCOO^{-}]=\frac{K_{a}[HCOOH]}{[H^{+}]}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5BHCOO%5E%7B-%7D%5D%3D%5Cfrac%7BK_%7Ba%7D%5BHCOOH%5D%7D%7B%5BH%5E%7B%2B%7D%5D%7D)
Here, pH of solution is 4.15 thus, concentration of hydrogen ion will be:
![[H^{+}]=10^{-pH}=10^{-4.15}=7.08\times 10^{-5}M](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5BH%5E%7B%2B%7D%5D%3D10%5E%7B-pH%7D%3D10%5E%7B-4.15%7D%3D7.08%5Ctimes%2010%5E%7B-5%7DM)
Similarly,
thus,

Putting the values,
![[HCOO^{-}]=\frac{(1.78\times 10^{-4}M)(100\times 10^{-3}M)}{(7.08\times 10^{-5}M}=0.2511 M](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5BHCOO%5E%7B-%7D%5D%3D%5Cfrac%7B%281.78%5Ctimes%2010%5E%7B-4%7DM%29%28100%5Ctimes%2010%5E%7B-3%7DM%29%7D%7B%287.08%5Ctimes%2010%5E%7B-5%7DM%7D%3D0.2511%20M)
Therefore, the concentration of formate will be 0.2511 M.
Answer:
0.328 atm
Explanation:
Kp is the equilibrium constant calculated based on the pressure, and it depends only on the gas substances. It will be the multiplication of partial pressures of the products raised to their coefficients divided by the multiplication of partial pressures of the reactants raised to their coefficients.
For the equation given, the stoichiometry is 1 mol of NH₃ for 1 mol of H₂S, so they will have the same partial pressure in equilibrium, let's call it p. So:
Kp = pxp
0.108 = p²
p = √0.108
p = 0.328 atm, which is the partial pressure of the ammonia.

See explanation
Explanation:
In the Rutherford experiment, alpha particles were directed at the same spot on a thin gold foil.
As the alpha particles hit the foil, most of the alpha particles went through the foil. In Rutherford's interpretation, most of the particles went through because the atom consisted largely of empty space.
However, some of the alpha particles were deflected through large angles, in Rutherford's interpretation, the deflected alpha particles had hit the dense positive core of the atom which he called the nucleus.
This accounted for their scattering through large angles throughout the foil in all directions.
