Answer:

from formula,

n = <u>speed</u><u> </u><u>of</u><u> </u><u>light</u><u> </u><u> </u><u> </u><u> </u><u> </u><u> </u><u> </u><u> </u><u> </u><u> </u><u> </u><u> </u><u> </u><u> </u><u> </u><u> </u><u> </u><u> </u><u> </u>

speed of light in medium

In Silica,

1.44 = (3e8m/s)/v

v= (3e8m/s)/1.44

v = 20.83e7m/s

v = 20.8 × 10^7m/s.

Light travels in silica at 20.8 × 10^7 m/s.

Answer:

2.08 x 108 m/s

The speed of light in this fiber is found to be v = c/n = (3.00 x 108 m/s)/(1.44) = 2.08 x 108 m/s.

If 3.0 moles of hydrogen react, how many grams of nitrogen will be used? Round your answer to the nearest whole number. N2 + 3H2
Iteru [2.4K]

Answer:

28g

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Number of moles of hydrogen  = 3moles

Unknown:

Mass of nitrogen used = ?

Solution:

 To solve this problem, let us establish the balanced reaction equation first;

             N₂  + 3H₂ →  2NH₃

From the balanced reaction equation;

                 3 mole of H₂ will combine with 1 mole of N₂

                 

Now,

   Mass of Nitrogen  = number of moles x molar mass

         Molar mass of N₂  = 2(14) = 28g/mol

   Mass of Nitrogen  = 1 mole x 28g/mole  = 28g
