Answer:

The answer is D.

Explanation:

Methane (CH4) is a non-polar hydrocarbon molecule made of a single carbon atom and four hydrogen atoms. It is found in nature in the form of natural gas. It is non-polar because the difference in electronegativities between carbon and hydrogen is not sufficient to produce a polarized chemical connection between these two elements.

The methane molecule has a tetrahedral structure in terms of molecular geometry. Because the molecule is not planar, the angles between the H-C-H bonds are 109.5°, which is more than the 90° that they would be if the molecule were planar.

Answer:

$1.7\cdot 10^{15} g$

Explanation:

Glucose reacts with oxygen do produce carbon dioxide and water:

$C_6H_12O_6 (s) + 6 O_2 (g)\rightarrow 6 CO_2 (g) + 6 H_2O (l)$

Given a daily mass of glucose:

$m_1 = 5.0\cdot 10^2 g$

Find moles of glucose:

$n_1 = {5.0\cdot 10^2 g}{180.156 g/mol} = 2.775 mol$

From stoichiometry of this equation, moles of carbon dioxide can be found by multiplying this amount by 6:

$n_2 = 2.775 mol\cdot 6=16.65 mol$

Convert this into mass using the molar mass of carbon dioxide:

$m_2 = 16.65 mol\cdot 44.01 g/mol = 732.8 g$

This is the mass of carbon dioxide per person per day. Multiply by the population and by the number of days to get the total mass:

$732.8 \frac{g}{person\cdot day}\cdot 365 days\cdot 6.5\cdot 10^9 people = 1.7\cdot 10^{15} g$

A student measures the mass of a sample as 9.64 g. Calculate the percentage error, given that the correct mass is 9.80 g.

rosijanka [135]

Answer:

<h3>The answer is 1.63 %</h3>

Explanation:

The percentage error of a certain measurement can be found by using the formula

$P(\%) = \frac{error}{actual \: \: number} \times 100\% \\$

From the question

actual mass = 9.80 g

error = 9.80 - 9.64 = 0.16

We have

$p(\%) = \frac{0.16}{9.80} \times 100 \\ = 1.632653061...$

We have the final answer as

<h3>1.63 %</h3>

Hope this helps you
