Answer:

Option A - High frequency, short wavelength.

Explanation:

<em>If the sound is high then the frequency is also high but short-wavelength means lots of waves that always have a high pitch-sound and a high frequency. </em>

2. Write the chemical equations for the neutralization reactions that occurred when HCL and NaOH were added to the buffer soluti
lutik1710 [3]

Answer:

HCI(aq)+CH3COONa(s) ----> CH3COOH(aq)+NaCl(s)

NaOH(aq)+CH3COOH(aq) ----> CH3COONa(s)+H2O(l)

Explanation:

A buffer is a solution that resists changes in acidity or alkalinity. A buffer is able to neutralize a little amount of acid or base thereby maintaining the pH of the system at a steady value.

A buffer may be an aqueous solution of a weak acid and its conjugate base or a weak base and its conjugate acid.

The equations for the neutralizations that occurred upon addition of HCl or NaOH are;

HCI(aq)+CH3COONa(s) ----> CH3COOH(aq)+NaCl(s)

NaOH(aq)+CH3COOH(aq) ----> CH3COONa(s)+H2O(l)

frez [133]

Using extension or flexible cords improperly

Explanation:

A client undergoing therapy in a whirlpool unit plugged into an extension cord demonstrates a wrong and improper use of extensions and flexible cords. This is not a safe way to connect an electrical circuit.

  • Unless a Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter is used, the client is at a risk of suffering from electrocution.
  • The Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter is able to detect leakages in the circuit and breaks it off.

arlik [135]

Answer: The empirical formula is C_3H_3O.

Explanation:

The chemical equation for the combustion of hydrocarbon having carbon, hydrogen and oxygen follows:

C_xH_yO_z+O_2\rightarrow CO_2+H_2O

where, 'x', 'y' and 'z' are the subscripts of Carbon, hydrogen and oxygen respectively.

We are given:

Mass of CO_2 = 12.24 g

Mass of H_2O = 2.505 g

Molar mass of carbon dioxide = 44 g/mol

Molar mass of water = 18 g/mol

For calculating the mass of carbon:

In 44g of carbon dioxide, 12 g of carbon is contained.

So, in 12.24 g of carbon dioxide, =\frac{12}{44}\times 12.24=3.338g of carbon will be contained.

For calculating the mass of hydrogen:

In 18g of water, 2 g of hydrogen is contained.

So, in 2.505 g of water, =\frac{2}{18}\times 2.505=0.278g of hydrogen will be contained.

Mass of oxygen in the compound = (5.287) - (3.338+0.278) = 1.671  g

Step 1 : convert given masses into moles.

Moles of C =\frac{\text{ given mass of C}}{\text{ molar mass of C}}= \frac{3.338g}{12g/mole}=0.278moles

Moles of H=\frac{\text{ given mass of H}}{\text{ molar mass of H}}= \frac{0.278g}{1g/mole}=0.278moles

Moles of O=\frac{\text{ given mass of O}}{\text{ molar mass of O}}= \frac{1.671g}{16g/mole}=0.104moles

Step 2 : For the mole ratio, divide each value of moles by the smallest number of moles calculated.

For C =\frac{0.278}{0.104}=3

For H =\frac{0.278}{0.104}=3

For O =\frac{0.104}{0.104}=1

The ratio of C : H : O = 3: 3: 1

Hence the empirical formula is C_3H_3O.
