Chemistry

Answer:

Good answer below, just adding on

Explanation:

Runoff of chemical products, animal waste, and especially human waste products such as different types of trash like scrap metals and plastic greatly increase water pollution. Additionally, oil leaks and spills can also lead to severe water pollution. As a general statement I'd say that human activities that are not monitored and are either directly dumped into water ways or are caught in run off cause water pollution.

89.1% Au

The molar mass of Au2O3 is 2(196.97) + 3(16.00) = 441.94 g/mol
The mass percent of Au is therefore 2(196.97) / 441.94, which is 393.94/441.94 = 0.891 —> 89.1%

PLEASE PLEASE HELP<br> Calculate the mass of 3.4 moles of nitric acid (HNO3)
Elza [17]
Molar mass of nitric acid (HNO3) =atomic mass of hydrogen + atomic mass of nitrogen +3x atomic mass of oxygen . The molar mass of nitric acid (HNO3) is 63.0144 gram per mole, but you have 3.4 moles. Therefore; the answer is 63.0144 g/mole x 3.4 moles = 214.24896 grams.

A chamber has a pressure of 1.5 atm at a volume of 1.4 L. What is the pressure when the piston compresses the sample
nordsb [41]

Answer:

C.) 3.5 atm

Explanation:

Because you are dealing with pressure and volume, you can use Boyle's Law to help you find the missing variable. The general formula looks like this:

P₁V₁ = P₂V₂

In this formula, "P₁" and "V₁" represent the pressure and volume of the chamber originally. "P₂" and "V₂" represent the final pressure and volume. You have been given the values of all the other variables but "P₂". Therefore, you can plug these values into the formula and simplify to find the final pressure.

P₁ = 1.5 atm

V₁ = 1.4 L

P₂ = ?

V₂ = 0.60 L

P₁V₁ = P₂V₂                                        <---- Boyle's Law formula

(1.5 atm)(1.4 L) = P₂(0.60 L)               <---- Plug in values

2.1 = P₂(0.60 L)                                 <---- Multiply 1.5 and 1.4

3.5 = P₂                                             <----- Divide both sides by 0.60

an unknown volume of gas has a pressure of 0.50 atm and temperature of 325k. if the pressure is raised to 1.2atm and the tempera
postnew [5]
117 L. You can start by making a table to organize the information you are given. Then, you can use the formula PV/T=PV/T and plug in the numbers you have. You then solve for the missing volume. Remember that the initial pressure, temperature, and volume should be on one side of the equal sign, and the final pressure, volume, and temperature should be on the other side.
