A student assistant is cleaning up after a chemistry laboratory exercise and finds three one-liter bottles containing alcohol so

lutions. The first bottle is one-half full with a 20% alcohol solution, the second bottle is one-fifth full with a 30% alcohol solution, and the third bottle is one-tenth full with a 50% alcohol solution. The student pours the contents of all three bottles into an empty one-liter bottle. What is the approximate alcohol content of this mixed solution

The approximate alcohol content is 210 ml.

Explanation:

It can be deduced from the question that each bottle is of 1000ml or 1 litre.

The first bottle is one half full means it has 500 ml of solution and it has 20% alcohol in it. So volume of alcohol in the solution is

20/100*500

=100 ml

The first bottle is one fifth full, so the volume of mixture is 1/5th of 1000ml

so it is 200ml having 30% alcohol

30/100*200

= 60 ml

The third bottle is one tenth full so its volume is 1/10*1000

100 ml.  having 50% of alcohol

50/100*100

50 ml.

The alcohol content obtained from all these 3 litres is:

100+60+50

= 210 ml of alchohol is obtained from 800 ml of mixture.

rusting of steel can be prevented by coating the steel with a layer of zinc. Explain, in terms of electron transfer, why steal d
Luba_88 [7]

Answer:

Wouldn't rust because zinc will lose electrons more readily than iron and will therefore oxidize first.

Explanation:

This process whereby rusting of steel is prevented by coating the steel with a layer of zinc is known as galvanization.

Now, in this process, the steel object will be coated in a thin layer of zinc. This coating will prevent oxygen and water from reaching the underneath metal since the zinc will also act as a sacrificial metal.

Now, Zinc is used because it has a lower reduction potential than iron and thus it will get easily more oxidized than iron. Which means the zinc will lose electrons more readily than iron.

Also, since zinc has a lower reduction potential, it is therefore the more active metal. Thus, even if the zinc coating is scratched and the steel is exposed to moist air, the zinc will still get to oxidize before the iron.

Answer:

Option C.

Ilegal dumping of waste

Explanation:

This is because non point source of pollution refers to source of pollution that are many and not directly one which is illegal or does not meet the legal term. This type of pollution does not have a point source, it has many sources and this type of pollution is cause by rainfall or precipitation. Where when the rain fall, it wash away the waste through to water bodies, causing pollution and endangering water bodies.

Name one way igneous rock is different from metamorphic rock.
nasty-shy [4]

Answer:

Metamorphic rock is classified by texture and composition. The texture of a metamorphic rock can be either foliated and appear layered or banded, or non-foliated and appear uniform in texture without banding. Foliated rocks contain many different kinds of minerals, but non-foliated rocks contain only one main mineral, which contributes to their more uniform appearance.  Igneous rocks are classified according to mode of occurrence, texture, mineralogy, chemical composition, and the geometry of the igneous body.
