Answer:

2,780,000mg

Explanation:

Using the Metric Staircase photo provided, you can calculate how many mg there are in 2.78 kg by simply moving the decimal point six places to the right, since the "Kilo" step takes six places to move to the "Milli" step.

2.78 kg

---------------

2 7 8 0 0 0 0 .

we can see that the decimal point is moved to the right six places.

Answer:

2,780,000mg

The combustion of 0.590 g of benzoic acid (ΔHcomb = 3,228 kJ/mol; MW = 122.12 g/mol) in a bomb calorimeter increased the tempera

Alenkinab [10]

Answer:

2.943 °C temperature change from the combustion of the glucose has been taken place.

Explanation:

Heat released on combustion of Benzoic acid; :

Enthaply of combustion of benzoic acid = 3,228 kJ/mol

Mass of benzoic acid = 0.590 g

Moles of benzoic acid = $\frac{0.590 g}{122.12 g/mol}=0.004831 mol$

Energy released by 0.004831 moles of benzoic acid on combustion:

$Q=3,228 kJ/mol \times 0.004831 mol=15.5955 kJ=15,595.5 J$

Heat capacity of the calorimeter = C

Change in temperature of the calorimeter = ΔT = 2.125°C

$Q=C\times \Delta T$

$15,595.5 J=C\times 2.125^oC$

$C=7,339.05 J/^oC$

Heat released on combustion of Glucose: :

Enthaply of combustion of glucose= 2,780 kJ/mol.

Mass of glucose=1.400 g

Moles of glucose = $\frac{1.400 g}{180.16 g/mol}=0.007771 mol$

Energy released by the 0.007771 moles of calorimeter combustion:

$Q'=2,780 kJ/mol \times 0.007771 mol=21.6030 kJ=21,603.01 J$

Heat capacity of the calorimeter = C (calculated above)

Change in temperature of the calorimeter on combustion of glucose = ΔT'

$Q'=C\times \Delta T'$

$21,603.01 J=7,339.05 J/^oC\times \Delta T'$

$\Delta T'=2.943^oC$

2.943 °C temperature change from the combustion of the glucose has been taken place.

Which of the following always changes when transmutation occurs?

mart [117]

Answer:

The atomic number

Explanation:

Transmutation refers to the conversion of one chemical element into another. A transmutation usually involves a change in the structure of atomic nuclei and this may be induced by a nuclear reaction.

Transmutation was first achieved in 1919 by Lord Rutherford when he successfully changed a nitrogen nucleus to an oxygen-18 isotope, producing a proton in the process.

Since transmutation often involves changing one atom into another, the atomic number or mass number of the original element always changes (to form a new element) in the process.

Why is earth's surface warmer in the northern hemisphere when it is summer there

RideAnS [48]

By definition, summer is the portion of the year in which the hemisphere is tilted toward the sun, so that sunlight strikes the surface more directly. When it is summer in the northern hemisphere, it is winter in the southern hemisphere, and vice versa

How does the number of subatomic particles change as the carbon isotope decays?

Rzqust [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

C decays by a process called beta decay. During this process, an atom of 14C decays into an atom of 14N, during which one of the neutrons in the carbon atom becomes a proton. This increases the number of protons in the atom by one, creating a nitrogen atom rather than a carbon atom.

. A standard dry cell has an output voltage of A. 1.5 VDC. B. 1.1 VDC. C. 1.2 VDC. D. 2.0 VDC.

NikAS [45]

The correct answer is letter A. 1.5 VDC. A standard dry cell has an output voltage of A. 1.5 VDC. Standard dry cell is a type of electricity-producing chemical cell, that is commonly use in households, and even portable devices. Dry cell is zinc-carbon cell and with nominal voltage of 1.5 volts.
