A 232-lb fullback runs the 40-yd dash at a speed of 19.8 ± 0.1 mi/h.

Neporo4naja [7]

Answer:

(a) 7.11 x 10⁻³⁷ m

(b) 1.11 x 10⁻³⁵ m

Explanation:

(a) The de Broglie wavelength is given by the expression:

λ = h/p = h/mv

where h is plancks constant, p is momentum which is equal to mass times velocity.

We have all the data required to calculate the wavelength, but first we will have to convert the velocity to m/s, and the mass to kilograms to work in metric system.

v = 19.8 mi/h x ( 1609.34 m/s ) x ( 1 h / 3600 s ) = 8.85 m/s

m = 232 lb x ( 0.454 kg/ lb ) = 105.33 kg

λ = h/ mv = 6.626 x 10⁻³⁴ J·s / ( 105.33 kg x 8.85 m/s ) = 7.11 x 10⁻³⁷ m

(b) For this part we have to use the uncertainty principle associated with wave-matter:

ΔpΔx > = h/4π

mΔvΔx > = h/4π

Δx = h/ (4π m Δv )

Again to utilize this equation we will have to convert the uncertainty in velocity to m/s for unit consistency.

Δv = 0.1 mi/h x ( 1609.34 m/mi ) x ( 1 h/ 3600 s )

= 0.045 m/s

Δx = h/ (4π m Δv ) = 6.626 x 10⁻³⁴ J·s / (4π x 105.33 kg x 0.045 m/s )

= 1.11 x 10⁻³⁵ m

This calculation shows us why we should not be talking of wavelengths associatiated with everyday macroscopic objects for we are obtaining an uncertainty of 1.11 x 10⁻³⁵ m for the position of the fullback.

A 0.964 gram sample of a mixture of sodium formate and sodium chloride is analyzed by adding sulfuric acid. The equation for the

frosja888 [35]

Answer: 67.8 %.

Explanation:

Okay, let us delve right into the solution to the question;

The balanced chemical reaction is given by the equation (1) below;

2 HCOONa + H2SO4 ---------> 2 CO + 2 H2O + Na2SO4. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------(1).

From the balanced chemical reaction in equation (1) above we can see that; 2 moles of HCOONa reacts with one moles of tetraoxosulphate acid, H2SO4 to produce 2 moles of carbonmonoxide,CO; 2 moles of water, H2O and 1 mole of sodium tetraoxosulphate, Na2SO4.

The parameters given from the question are; total atmospheric pressure, P(t) = 752 torr, volume of CO= 242 mL = 0.242 Litres.

STEP ONE : find the carbon monoxide,CO pressure; P(CO).

Using the formula below;

P(t) = P(CO) + P(H2O). Hence;

P(CO) = P(t) - P(H2O). Note that P(H2O)= 19.8 torr.

==>P(CO)= 752 torr - 19.8 torr = 732.2 torr.

STEP TWO: calculate the number of moles of Carbonmonoxide,CO.

Using the formula below;

Number of moles= pressure(P) × volume(v) / gas constant(R) × temperature (T).

That is, n= PV/RT.

n= 732 torr × 0.242 Litres/ 62.4 × 295.15.

= 9.62 × 10^-3 mol of CO.

STEP THREE:

2 moles of HCOONa = 2 moles of CO.

=> 2 moles of HCOONa = 2 moles of CO/ 2 moles of CO = 1 mol( HCOONa/ CO).

Then, 9.62 × 10^-3 mol of CO × 1 mol( HCOONa/ CO).

==> 9.62 × 10^-3 mol HCOONa × molar masss of HCOONa(68 grams/mol)

= 0.654 grams.

Therefore, the percentage of sodium formate in the original mixture = 0.654 grams/ 0.964 gram × 100 = 67.8 %.

Identify the oxidizing agent and the reducing agent for 4Li(s) + O_2 (g) to 2Li_2O(s).

wolverine [178]

Answer: Li is the reducing agentg and O is the oxidizing agent.

Explanation:

1) The oxidizing agent is the one that is reduced and the reducing agent is the one that is oxidized.

2) The given reaction is:

4Li(s) + O₂ (g) → 2 Li₂O(s)

3) Determine the oxidation states of each atom:

Li(s): oxidation state = 0 (since it is alone)

O₂ (g): oxidation state = 0 (since it is alone)

Li in Li₂O (s) +1

O in Li₂O -2

That because 2× (+1) - 2 = 0.

4) Determine the changes:

Li went from 0 to + 1, therefore it got oxidized and it is the reducing agent.

O went from 0 to - 2, therefore it got reduced and it is the oxidizing agent.

Based on the ideal gas law, there is a simple equivalency that exists between the amount of gas and the volume it occupies. at s

nordsb [41]

<span>2.10 grams. The balanced equation for the reaction is CO + 2H2 ==> CH3OH The key thing to take from this equation is that it takes 2 hydrogen molecules per carbon monoxide molecule for this reaction. And since we've been given an equal number of molecules for each reactant, the limiting reactant will be hydrogen. We can effectively claim that we have 5.86/2 = 2.93 l of hydrogen and an excess of CO to consume all of the hydrogen. So the number of moles of hydrogen gas we have is: 2.93 l / 22.4 l/mol = 0.130803571 mol And since it takes 2 moles of hydrogen gas to make 1 mole of methanol, divide by 2, getting. 0.130803571 mol / 2 = 0.065401786 mol Now we just need to multiply the number of moles of methanol by its molar mass. First lookup the atomic weights involved. Atomic weight carbon = 12.0107 g/mol Atomic weight hydrogen = 1.00794 g/mol Atomic weight oxygen = 15.999 g/mol Molar mass CH3OH = 12.0107 + 4 * 1.00794 + 15.999 = 32.04146 g/mol So the mass produced is 32.04146 g/mol * 0.065401786 mol = 2.095568701 g And of course, properly round the answer to 3 significant digits, giving 2.10 grams.</span>
