Which has a greater speed,a heron that travels 600m in 60 seconds or a duck that travels 60m in 5 seconds? explain

Semmy [17]

In order to find out the answer to this problem, you need to know how to find the unit rate. A unit rate a rate that has a denominator of 1. You find the unit rate because the problem is asking you to find the faster speed, but the ratios are different.
So 600m in 60 sec you divide both by 60. It comes out as 10m in 1 sec for the heron.
60m in 5 sec is 12m in 1 sec for the duck.
Compare the heron to duck. The heron travels faster.
Give 5 stars if it helped!! :)

Trimix 10/50 is a gas mixture that contians 10% oxygen and 50% helium, and the rest is nitrogen. If a tank of trimix 10/50 has a

Marat540 [252]

Answer : The partial pressure of helium is, $1.815\times 10^4KPa$

Solution : Given,

Molar mass of $O_2$ = 32 g/mole

Molar mass of helium = 4 g/mole

Molar mass of $N_2$ = 28 g/mole

Total pressure of gas = $2.07\times 10^4KPa$

As we are given gases in percent, that means 10 g of oxygen gas, 50 g of helium gas and 40 g of nitrogen gas present in 100 g of mixture.

First we have to calculate the moles of oxygen, helium and nitrogen gas.

$\text{Moles of }O_2=\frac{\text{Mass of }O_2}{\text{Molar mass of }O_2}=\frac{10g}{32g/mole}=0.3125moles$

$\text{Moles of }He=\frac{\text{Mass of }He}{\text{Molar mass of }He}=\frac{50g}{4g/mole}=12.5moles$

$\text{Moles of }N_2=\frac{\text{Mass of }N_2}{\text{Molar mass of }N_2}=\frac{40g}{28g/mole}=1.428moles$

Now we have to calculate the total number of moles of gas mixture.

$\text{Total number of moles of gas}=\text{Moles of oxygen gas}+\text{Mole of helium gas}+\text{Moles of nitrogen gas}$

$\text{Total number of moles of gas}=0.3125+12.5+1.428=14.24moles$

Now we have to calculate the moles fraction of helium gas.

$\text{Mole fraction of He gas}=\frac{\text{Moles of He gas}}{\text{Total number of moles of gas}}=\frac{12.5}{14.25}=0.877$

Now we have to calculate the partial pressure of helium.

$p_{He}=X_{He}\times P_T$

where,

$p_{He}$ = partial pressure of helium

$P_T$ = total pressure

$X_{He}$ = mole fraction of helium

Now put all the given values in this formula, we get

$p_{He}=(0.877)\times (2.07\times 10^4KPa)=1.815\times 10^4KPa$

Therefore, the partial pressure of helium is, $1.815\times 10^4KPa$

Which statement accurately describes why air pressure decreases as altitude increases? As you increase altitude the temperature

labwork [276]

Answer:

The correct answer is " As you increase altitude, Earth's gravity is not acting as greatly as when closer to Earth's surface so the weight of air molecules decrease, which also in turn decreases air pressure."

Explanation:

As altitude increases air becomes rarefied. At higher altitudes there is less Earth's gravity acting on the air molecules than at areas close the earth surface. Air pressure is the weight of air acting per unit surface area. At higher altitudes as the weight of air decreases due to reduced gravitational pull the air pressure also decreases.

How many grams of 02 will be formed from 6.5 moles of KCLO3

Allisa [31]

Answer:

312 g of O₂

Explanation:

We'll begin by writing the balanced equation for the reaction. This is illustrated below:

2KClO₃ —> 2KCl + 3O₂

From the balanced equation above,

2 mole of KClO₃ decomposed to 3 moles of O₂.

Next, we shall determine the number of mole of O₂ produced by the reaction of 6.5 moles of KClO₃. This can be obtained as follow:

From the balanced equation above,

2 mole of KClO₃ decomposed to 3 moles of O₂.

Therefore, 6.5 moles of KClO₃ will decompose to produce = (6.5 × 3)/2 = 9.75 moles of O₂.

Finally, we shall determine the mass of 9.75 moles of O₂. This can be obtained as follow:

Mole of O₂ = 9.75 moles

Molar mass of O₂ = 2 × 16 = 32 g/mol

Mass of O₂ =?

Mole = mass / Molar mass

9.75 = Mass of O₂ / 32

Cross multiply

Mass of O₂ = 9.75 × 32

Mass of O₂ = 312 g

Thus, 312 g of O₂ were obtained from the reaction.

Write some sentences about Respiration in your own words

weeeeeb [17]

Answer:

Reluctantly she pulled away, her pulse and respiration in a race.

Its function is less that of respiration than of FIG

Terrestrial plants have a gaseous interchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide which is necessary for respiration and feeding.

The least wind raises clouds of fine dust, which fill the air, render it so opaque as to obscure the noonday sun, and make respiration difficult.
