Explanation:

5.5 billion grains of sand (5.5×10^9 grains)

Assuming the amount of brown sand is 6.0%, how many brown grains are found in the bucket?

Grains of brown sand = Percentage of brown sand * Total sand in the bucket

Calculated brown grains = 0.06 * 5.5×10^9 = 0.33 x 10^9 = 3.3 x 10^8 grains

If the concentration of brown sand is 6.0 ppm, what is the number of brown grains in the bucket?

Grains of brown sand = Concentration of brown sand * Total sand in the bucket

6 ppm = 6 / 1,000,000 = 0.000006

Calculated brown grains = 0.000006 * 5.5×10^9 = 3.3 x 10^4 grains

If the concentration of brown sand is 6.0 ppb, how many brown grains exist in the bucket?

Grains of brown sand = Concentration of brown sand * Total sand in the bucket

6 ppb = 6 / 1,000,000,000 = 0.000000006

Calculated brown grains = 0.000000006 * 5.5×10^9 = 3.3 x 10^1 = 33 grains

How many protons neutrons and electrons are there in a neutral atom of 43k (potassium-43)?
castortr0y [3046]

Answer:

             Protons: 19

             Neutrons: 25

             Electrons: 19

Explanation:

Protons:

                   The atomic number determines the number of protons in an atom. Consequently, with Potassium's atomic number being 19, it contains 19 protons.

Neutrons:

                   The formula to find neutrons is:

                           # of Neutrons  =  Atomic Mass - # of Protons

Given:

                                Atomic Mass  =  43

                                # of Protons  =  19

Thus,

                                # of Neutrons  =  43 - 19

                                # of Neutrons  =  24

Electrons:

                                   In a neutral atom, the quantity of electrons matches that of protons. Therefore, a neutral Potassium atom with 19 protons must equally have 19 electrons.

What is the mass of 22.4 L of H2 at STP?
eduard [2782]

A. 1.01 is the accurate result

Because

The formula used is Pv= nRT

P=1 atm

V= 22.4 L

N= x

R= 0.0821

T= 273 K (since it’s standard temperature)

Thus, (1)(22.4)=(x)(0.0821)(273)

X= 1.001

Which of the following statements is true about the relationships between photon energy, wavelength, and frequency?
KiRa [2933]

Answer: The Answer is A.

Explanation:

The energy of a photon is directly related to its electromagnetic frequency, meaning it is inversely related to the wavelength. A higher frequency results in greater energy for the photon. Conversely, a longer wavelength corresponds to lower energy levels.

Hope this Helps!

In a car piston shown above, the pressure of the compressed gas (red) is 5.00 atm. If the area of the piston is 0.0760 m^2. What
Anarel [2989]

Answer:

The force is 38503.5N.

Explanation:

From the problem, we determine:

P (pressure) = 5.00 atm.

Next, to find the force in Newtons (N), we must convert 5 atm into N/m², as shown:

1 atm equals 101325 N/m².

So, 5 atm equals 5 x 101325 = 506625 N/m².

A (the piston area) = 0.0760 m².

Pressure signifies force per unit area, mathematically represented as

P = F/A.

From this, we find F = P × A.

F = 506625 × 0.0760.

Therefore, F = 38503.5N.

Thus, the piston experiences a force of 38503.5N.

49.9 g per day of a certain industrial waste chemical P arrives at a treatment plant settling pond with a volume of 300 m^3. P i
Alekssandra [3086]

Answer:

The concentration of P in the pond at equilibrium is 0.034 g/m³

Explanation:

Given the total mass = 49.9 g

1 day = 24 hours

mass per hour;

Incoming mass = (49.9 g / day) * (1 day /24 hr )

            = 2.079 g/hr

Outgoing mass = 0

Mass lost due to sunlight = k C_{A} V  

Given the half-life = 3.4 hours

For a first-order reaction; k, the rate constant = ln2/t, where t is the half-time

                     ln 2= 0.693, V= volume

                     k = 0.693 / t_half = 0.693 / 3.4 = 0.2038 hr⁻¹

Substituting all parameters into the equation k C_{A} V;

Mass lost to sunlight = k C_{A} V  

C_{A} = Incoming mass per hour / kV

= 2.079 g/hr / (0.2038 hr⁻¹ x 300 m³) C_{A}

=  

0.034 g/m³C_{A}
