The speed of light in a vacuum is 2.998 × 10 8 8 m/s. How long does it take for light to circumnavigate the Earth, which has a c
castortr0y [3046]

Answer:- 0.134 seconds

Solution:- The speed is given as 2.988*10^8\frac{m}{s} and the circumference is 24900 miles which is same as the distance light have to covered. It asks to calculate the time required to cover this distance by the light.

Unit conversion is needed from miles to meters since the speed is given in meters per second.

1 mile = 1609.34 meters

Thus, 24900mile(\frac{1609.34meter}{mile})

= 40072566 meters

Now, speed=\frac{distance}{time}

Rearranged for time, that gives: time=\frac{distance}{speed}

Inserting the values:

time=\frac{40072566meter}{2.988*10^8\frac{meter}{second}}

= 0.134 seconds

Hence, light would take 0.134 seconds to traverse the indicated distance. The answer without the unit is 0.134.

You have two 500.0 ml aqueous solutions. solution a is a solution of a metal nitrate that is 8.246% nitrogen by mass the ionic c
lorasvet [2795]
1) The ionic compound present in solution b is K₂CrO₄ (potassium chromate). This compound contains two potassiums (oxidation state +1), a single chromium (oxidation state +6), and four oxygen atoms. The oxidation state of oxygen is -2, resulting in a neutral compound: 2 · (+1) + 6 + x · (-2) = 0. Hence, x = 4, denoting the count of oxygen atoms. 2) The ionic compound in solution a is AgNO₃ (silver nitrate). ω(N) = 8.246% ÷ 100%. Thus, ω(N) = 0.08246, indicating the mass percentage of nitrogen. M(MNO₃) = M(N) ÷ ω(N). It follows that M(MNO₃) = 14 g/mol ÷ 0.08246, leading to M(MNO₃) = 169.8 g/mol; the molar mass of the metal nitrate. M(M) = M(MNO₃) - M(N) - 3 · M(O). Consequently, M(M) = 169.8 g/mol - 14 g/mol - 3 · 16 g/mol, resulting in M(M) = 107.8 g/mol which is the atomic mass of silver (Ag). 3) The balanced chemical equation is: 2AgNO₃(aq) + K₂CrO₄(aq) → Ag₂CrO₄(s) + 2KNO₃(aq). In ionic form: 2Ag⁺(aq) + 2NO₃⁻(aq) + 2K⁺(aq) + CrO₄²⁻(aq) → Ag₂CrO₄(s) + 2K⁺(aq) + 2NO₃⁻(aq). The net ionic equation is: 2Ag⁺(aq) + CrO₄²⁻(aq) → Ag₂CrO₄(s). Thus, the red precipitate is identified as silver chromate (Ag₂CrO₄). 4) The mass of solid silver chromate created is m(Ag₂CrO₄) = 331.8 g. The amount is determined by n(Ag₂CrO₄) = m(Ag₂CrO₄) ÷ M(Ag₂CrO₄). Therefore, n(Ag₂CrO₄) = 331.8 g ÷ 331.8 g/mol yields n(Ag₂CrO₄) = 1 mol. From the balanced equation, n(Ag₂CrO₄): n(AgNO₃) = 1: 2, it follows n(AgNO₃) = 2 · 1 mol, which means n(AgNO₃) = 2 mol. Then, the mass of silver nitrate is computed as m(AgNO₃) = n(AgNO₃) · M(AgNO₃). Hence, m(AgNO₃) = 2 mol · 169.8 g/mol gives m(AgNO₃) = 339.6 g; thus, m(AgNO₄) equals m(K₂CrO₄). Therefore, m(K₂CrO₄) = 339.6 g; amount of potassium chromate is n(K₂CrO₄) = m(K₂CrO₄) ÷ M(K₂CrO₄). Thus, n(K₂CrO₄) = 339.6 g ÷ 194.2 g/mol thus arrives at n(K₂CrO₄) = 1.75 mol. 5) The dissociation of silver nitrate in water is expressed as: AgNO₃(aq) → Ag⁺(aq) + NO₃⁻(aq). Volume of solution a = 500 mL ÷ 1000 mL/L results in V(solution a) = 0.5 L. Concentration equation c(AgNO₃) = n(AgNO₃) ÷ V(solution a), thus c(AgNO₃) = 2 mol ÷ 0.5 L, yielding c(AgNO₃) = 4 mol/L = 4 M. As a result: c(AgNO₃) = c(Ag⁺) = c(NO₃⁻). Thus, c(Ag⁺) = 4 M; the concentration of silver ions in the initial solution a. 6) The dissociation of potassium chromate in water is represented as: K₂CrO₄(aq) → 2K⁺(aq) + CrO₄²⁻(aq). Volume of solution b = 500 mL ÷ 1000 mL/L results in V(solution b) = 0.5 L. Following, c(K₂CrO₄) is calculated as n(K₂CrO₄) ÷ V(solution b). So c(AgNO₃) = 1.75 mol ÷ 0.5 L gives c(AgNO₃) = 3.5 mol/L = 3.5 M. Consequently: c(K⁺) = 7 M; the concentration of potassium ions in solution b. Therefore, c(CrO₄²⁻) = 3.5 M; the concentration of chromium ions in the same solution. 7) The total final volume is V(final solution) = V(solution a) + V(solution b). Thus, V(final solution) = 500.0 mL + 500.0 mL leads to V(final solution) = 1000 mL ÷ 1000 mL/L results in V(final solution) = 1 L. Then n(NO₃⁻) = 2 mol. Therefore, c(NO₃⁻) = n(NO₃⁻) ÷ V(final solution) finds c(NO₃⁻) = 2 mol ÷ 1 L and results in c(NO₃⁻) = 2 M; the concentration of nitrate anions in the final solution. 8) In solution b, there are 3.5 mol of potassium cations while part of that combines with 2 moles of nitrate anions: K⁺(aq) + NO₃⁻(aq) → KNO₃(aq). From the reaction: n(K⁺): n(NO₃⁻) = 1: 1. Thus, Δn(K⁺) = 3.5 mol - 2 mol results in Δn(K⁺) = 1.5 mol, signifying the remaining potassium anions in the final solution. Thus, c(K⁺) = Δn(K⁺) ÷ V(final solution) yields c(K⁺) = 1.5 mol ÷ 1 L, leading to c(K⁺) = 1.5 M; the final concentration of potassium cations.

Describe the cause of attraction between molecules of water
lions [2927]
In a water molecule, the sharing of electrons occurs between the oxygen and hydrogen atoms within covalent bonds; however, this sharing is unequal. The oxygen atom holds a stronger pull on the electrons compared to the hydrogen atoms in the bond.

Acetone major species present when dissolved in water
Alekssandra [3086]

The compound is acetone ( CH₃-CO-CH₃)


Explanation:


1) Acetone is represented as CH₃-CO-CH₃.


2) This is a molecule formed by covalent bonds.


3) When it dissolves, compounds with covalent bonds remain as individual molecules, indicating that the primary species in the solution are the molecules themselves, which are surrounded (solvated) by water molecules.


In contrast, ionic compounds ionize. For example, when NaCl dissolves in water, it completely breaks down into ions, hence the predominant species are the ions Na⁺ and Cl⁻, rather than the NaCl formula.


This leads to the conclusion that: when acetone dissolves in water, the primary components are the acetone molecules (there is no need to mention that water molecules are in the solution, as that isn't the question's focus).
