A chemical engineer must report the average volume of a certain pollutant produced by the plants under her supervision. Here are

the data she has been given by each plant: plant volume of pollutant Macon 0.519 LAllegheny 44.67 LDoheny 0.826 LWhat average volume should the chemical engineer report? Be sure your answer has the correct number of significant digits.

Answer:

The chemical engineer should report an average volume of 15.34 L.

Explanation:

Volume from Macon = 0.519 L

Volume from Allegheny = 44.67 L

Volume from Doheny = 0.826 L

The average concentration of pollutants is calculated as:

\frac{0.519 L+44.67 L+ 0.826L}{3}=\frac{46.015 L}{3}=15.33833 L

When adding or subtracting, the least precise figure after the decimal point dictates the significant figures in the result.

In this case, 44.67 features two significant figures post-decimal, which means the final answer should also retain two decimal places.

15.33833 L\approx 15.34 L

The chemical engineer should report an average volume of 15.34 L.

In living organisms, C-14 atoms disintegrate at a rate of 15.3 atoms per minute per gram of carbon. A charcoal sample from an ar
lions [2927]

Answer:

The result is "4,241.17 years"

Explanation:

The disintegration rate for C-14 atoms is indicated in  15.3 \frac{atoms}{min-g}

The dissolution rate of the sample is given by 9.16 \frac{atoms} {min-gram}

The C-14 proportion within the sample can be determined as per = \frac {9.16}{15.3} \\\\ = 0.5987

With a half-life of 5730 years.

Now, we need to compute the number of half-lives (n) that are applicable:

(\frac{1}{2})^n= A\\\\A= fraction of C-14, which is remaining \\\\(\frac{1}{2})^n= 0.5987 \\\\ n \log 2 = - \log 0.5987\\\\

\therefore \\\\ \Rightarrow n= \frac{0.227}{0.3010} \\\\ = 0.740\\

Thus, the age of the sample is represented as = n \times\ half-life

                                                 = 0.740 \times 5730 \ years \\\\=4241.17 \ years\\\\

Although I may not be the smartest, I can definitely answer.

This represents a chemical change because the substances' chemical identities were altered. The fizzing was a clear sign, and the temperature increase was another indicator of the reaction.

Freon-11, CCl3F has been commonly used in air conditioners. It has a molar mass of 137.35 g/mol and its enthalpy of vaporization
alisha [2963]

Answer:

180.56 kilojoules of heat energy is extracted when 1.00 kg of freon-11 evaporates.

Explanation:

The molar mass of freon-11 is 137.35 g/mol

The enthalpy of vaporization for freon-11 is 24.8 kJ/mol at its normal boiling point of 24°C. Given that,\Delta H_{vap}=24.8 kJ/mol

Mass of freon-11 evaporated = 1.00 kg = 1000 g

Moles of freon-11 evaporated can be calculated as

\frac{1000 g}{137.35 g/mol}=7.2807 mol

The energy removed in the form of heat when 1.00 kg of freon-11 vaporizes is:

7.28067 mol\times \Delta H_{vap}=7.2807 mol\times 24.8 kJ/mol

=180.56 kJ

In how many grams of water should 25.31 g of potassium nitrate (kno3) be dissolved to prepare a 0.1982 m solution?
lions [2927]

Solution:

Molality measures the concentration of a solute in a solution, defined by the amount of solute per specific mass of solvent.

Thus,

Molality = moles of solute / kg of solvent.

Therefore, kg of solvent = moles of solute / molality.

moles of solute = mass / molar mass

= 25.31 g / 101.1 g/mole

= 0.2503 mole.

kg of solvent = 0.2503 mole / 0.1982 m

= 1.263 kg

= 1263 g.

This is the final answer.

Según la Organización Mundial de la Salud, el nitrato de plata ( densidad = 4.35 g/cc ) es una sustancia con propiedades cáustic
castortr0y [3046]

Respuesta:

737.52 mL de agua

Justificación:

En este escenario, es necesario aplicar la fórmula de molaridad de una solución, que es:

M = moles / V

Donde:

V: Volumen de la solución.

Ya que deseamos determinar la cantidad de agua, en otras palabras, buscamos el volumen del solvente que se utilizó para crear los 800 mL de la disolución.

Una disolución se compone de un soluto y un solvente. El soluto que tenemos es nitrato de plata. Utilizando la fórmula mencionada, calculamos los moles de soluto y luego su masa. Tras eso, calculamos el volumen a partir de la densidad y, al final, determinamos la cantidad de solvente de esta manera:

V ste = Vsol - Vsto

Primero, vamos a calcular los moles de soluto:

moles = M * V

moles = 2 * 0.800 = 1.6 moles

Con este número de moles, obtenemos la masa utilizando el peso molecular que es 169.87 g/mol:

m = moles * PM

m = 1.6 * 169.87 = 271.792 g

Usando el valor de densidad, procederemos a calcular el volumen de soluto utilizado:

d = m/V

V = m/d

V = 271.792 / 4.35

V = 62.48 mL

Por último, la cantidad de agua requerida es:

V agua = 800 - 62.48

V agua = 737.52 mL
