Water is found in lakes and rivers. Its purpose in nature is to hydrate animals

Hydrogen gas is not abundant in nature, but hydrogen is abundant in water. Hydrogen (bonds) help ice float. Otherwise, freezing lakes would kill animals (it actually doesn't since the ice creates a "coat" above the water").

Ammonia is nitrogen-rich molecules that plant uses to get their nitrogen. It comes from the part of the nitrogen cycle where dead plants and animals are decayed.

Carbon dioxide is what we exhale. Plants "inhale" carbon dioxide and use that for photosynthesis.

Hydrogen sulfide is emitted by volcanoes and by anaerobic (oxygen-less) decay from bacteria.

Have an awesome day! I hope this helps.

Make the following conversions. Show your calculations.

Natalija [7]

Answer:

1. 500 cm = 5 m

2. 1000 g = 1 kg

3. 455 L = 45, 500 cL

4. 0.865 m = 0.00865 m or 8.65 * 10^-3 n

5. 33.5 cm = 335 mm

6. 0.0198 m = 19800 micrometers

7. 57.65 cg = 5.765 * 10^8 nanograms

8. 1000 L = 1 kl

9. 99 degrees F = 37.222 degrees C

Explanation:

1. One meter = 100 centimeters

500 centimeters/ 100 centimeters = 5 meters

2. One kilogram = 1000 grams.

1000 grams/1000 grams = 1 kilogram

3. One Liter = 100 centiliters

455 liters * 100 centiliters = 45, 500 centiliters

4. One meter = 100 centimeters

0.865 centimeters/100 centimeters = 0.00865 meters

5. One centimeter = 10 millimeters

33.5 centimeters * 10 millimeters = 335 millimeters

6. One meter = 1.0 * 10^6 micrometers

0.0198 meters * 1 * 10^6 micrometers = 19800 micrometers.

7. One centigram = 1.0 * 10^7 nanograms

57.65 centigrams * 1 * 10^7 nanograms = 5.765 * 10^8 nanograms.

8. One kiloliter = 1000 L

1000 L/ 1000 L = 1 kiloliter

9. The formula for finding Celsius is 5/9(f - 32)

So 5/9(99 - 32) = x

5/9(67) = x

x = 335/9 or 37.222 degrees Celsius.

There are many compounds that contribute to the overall aroma of a banana. The primary compound is called isoamyl acetate and co

Murljashka [212]

Explanation:

Let the mass of isoamyl acetate be 100g.

Moles of Carbon = 60.58/12 = 5.048mol

Moles of Hydrogen = 7.07/1 = 7.07mol

Moles of Oxygen = 32.28/16 = 2.018mol

Mole Ratio of C : H : O

= 5.048 : 7.07 : 2.018

= 5 : 7 : 2.

Hence the empirical formula of isoamyl acetate is C5H7O2.

Suppose you have 75 gas-phase molecules of methanol (CH3OH) at T = 470 K. These molecules are contained in a spherical container

Katarina [22]

Answer:

The average pressure in the container due to these 75 gas molecules is $P=9.72 \times 10^{-16} Pa$

Explanation:

Here Pressure in a container is given as

$P=\frac{1}{3} \rho$

Here

P is the pressure which is to be calculated

ρ is the density of the gas which is to be calculated as below

$\rho =\frac{mass}{Volume of container}$

Here

mass is to be calculated for 75 gas phase molecules as

$m=n_{molecules} \times \frac{1 mol}{6.022 \times 10^{23} molecules} \times \frac{32 g/mol}{1 mol}\\m=75 \times \frac{1 mol}{6.022 \times 10^{23} molecules} \times \frac{32 g/mol}{1 mol}\\m=3.98 \times 10^{-21} g$

Volume of container is 0.5 lts

So density is given as

$\rho =\frac{mass}{Volume of container}\\\rho =\frac{3.98 \times 10^{-21} \times 10^{-3} kg}{0.5 \times 10^{-3} m^3}\\\rho =7.97 \times 10^{-21}\, kg/m^3$

is the mean squared velocity which is given as

$=RMS^2$

Here RMS is the Root Mean Square speed given as 605 m/s so

$=RMS^2\\=(605)^2\\=366025$

Substituting the values in the equation and solving

$P=\frac{1}{3} \rho \\P=\frac{1}{3} \times 7.97 \times 10^{-21} \times 366025\\P=9.72 \times 10^{-16} Pa$

So the average pressure in the container due to these 75 gas molecules is $P=9.72 \times 10^{-16} Pa$
