How many liters of H2O gas are produced when
anyanavicka [17]
1 mole C3H8 produces 4 moles H2O. So, first we convert 32 grams of propane to moles and then find moles of H2O. Then convert moles of H2O to grams of H2O
Moles of H2O produced = 32 g C3H8 x 1 mole/44 g x 4 moles H2O/mole C3H8 = 2.909 moles H2O
Grams H2O produced = 2.909 moles H2O x 18 g/mole = 52.36 g = 52 g H2O

Acetone is the main chemical in nail polish and has a density of 0.7857 g/mL. What is the volume of 6.54g of acetone ?
trapecia [35]

8.3mL

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of acetone = 6.54g

Density of acetone = 0.7857 g/mL

Unknown:

Volume of acetone = ?

Solution:

Density is defined as the mass per unit volume of a substance. It is expressed mathematically as shown below:

  Density = \frac{Mass}{Volume}

Since the unknown is volume, we make it the subject of the formula

Volume =  \frac{mass}{density}

Input the values;

  Volume = \frac{6.54}{0.7857} = 8.3mL

The frequency of an x-ray wave is 3.0 x 1012 MHz. Its wave speed is 3.0x 108 m/s. Calculate the wavelength of the x-ray wave bel
elena55 [62]

Answer:

λ = 1*10⁻¹⁰m

Explanation:

Frequency (f) = 3.0*10¹²MHz = 3.0*10¹⁸Hz

Speed (v) = 3.0*10⁸m/s

Speed (v) of a wave = frequency (f) * wavelength (λ)

V = fλ

Solve for λ,

λ = v / f

λ = 3.0*10⁸ / 3.0*10¹⁸

λ = 1*10⁻¹⁰m

λ = 0.
