The first thing you have to do is find the number of mols. That's done in terms of the masses.
mol = mass of sample / molar mass
mol = 0.900 / 12.0
mol = 0.0750 mol Carbon

Next Each mol of carbon contains 6 mol of electrons. 
mol electrons = 6 * mol of carbon 
mol electrons = 6* 0.0750 = 0.450 mol

Next find out how many electrons are in 0.450 mol
1 mol = 6.02 * 10^23 
0.450 mol  = 6.02 * 10^23 * 0.45 = 2.71 * 10^23 electrons

Finally find the charge in coulombs
1 electron has a charge of 1.60 * 10 ^- 19
2.71 * 10^23 electrons have a charge of 1.6*10^-19 * 2.71*10^23
The answer is 43360 Coulombs = 4.34 * 10^4 coulombs. 

I have deliberately not used textbook formulas because each textbook has its own format.

A guitarist finds that the pitch of one of her strings is slightly flat—the frequency is a bit too low. Should she increase or d
Yuri [45]

Answer:

The guitarist should increase the tension of the string.

Explanation:

The frequency of a vibrating string is determined by fn=(n/(2L))√T/μ. So if the tension in the string increased, the rate at which it vibrates (the frequency) will also increase.

Therefore it is advisable that she increase the tension of the string.

I hope it helps, please give brainliest if it does

A protein molecule in an electrophoresis gel has a negative charge. The exact charge depends on the pH of the solution, but 30 e
Reika [66]

Answer:

7.401 * 10^(-15) N

Explanation:

30 electrons will have a charge:

30 * -1.6022 * 10^(-19) C

= - 4.806 * 10^(-18) C

The relationship between electric field and electric force is:

E = F/q

This means that force, F, is

|F| = |E|*|q|

|F| = |1540| * |-4.806 * 10^(-18)|

|F| = |-7401.24 * 10^(-18)|

|F| = 7.401 * 10^(-15) N

We know, Mechanical Energy = K.E. + P.E.
As ball is at ground, P.E. would be zero. But as it is in motion, it must have some K.E. and that is:

K.E. = 1/2 mv²
K.E. = 1/2 * 1 * 2²
K.E. = 4/2
K.E. = 2 J

In short, Your Answer would be Option B

Hope this helps!
