O C.
12.6 g
• D.
16.8 g
O E.
25.2 g

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

8.36 g

Explanation:

From;

0.693/t1/2 = 2.303/t log (No/N)

t1/2 = half life of potassium-40

t = age of the sample

No= initial amount of the sample

N= amount of the sample at time t

Substituting values;

0.693/1.3 × 10^9 = 2.303/2.6 × 10^9 log (No/2.10)

5.33 × 10^-10 = 8.86 × 10^-10 log (No/2.10)

5.33 × 10^-10/8.86 × 10^-10 = log (No/2.10)

0.6 = log (No/2.10)

Antilog (0.6) = (No/2.10)

No = 2.10 × Antilog (0.6)

No= 8.36 g

Answers

Answer:

copper

Explanation:

so for this you can work out the mass for both and compare

so mass = moles × mr

so mass of sodium = 1 × 23= 23 g

and mass of copper = 1 × 63.5= 63.5 g

so copper have more mass :)

Answer:

The offspring are all black eye colored.

Explanation:

Since we have genes BB for black eye color and genes bb for brown eye color, crossing the genes, the resulting genotypes in the offspring is Bb, Bb, Bb and Bb. We note that all the genes have the dominant B gene. Since the black eye color dominant gene is present in all the offspring, the offspring are thus all black-eye colored.

So, If you will cross a parent with black eye color (BB) and the other is

brown eye (bb), the offspring are all black eye colored.

In every experiment, there must be a dependent variable and an independent variable.

The independent variable is that variable that you have to manipulate in order to receive a response. E.g, in the experiment described in the question, the amount of sunlight a sunflower plant receives is the independent variable.

The dependent variable is the number of seeds produced. It is the response obtained by carefully manipulating the amount of sunlight

Calculate the number of moles of NaOH in an aqueous solution of 36 cm3 of 0.1 mol dm−3.
PLSS EXPLAIN WHAT YOU DO I DONT GET IT

Answers

Answer: The number of moles of NaOH is 0.0036 moles

Explanation:

Molarity is defined as the amount of solute expressed in the number of moles present per liter of solution. The units of molarity are mol/L. The formula used to calculate molarity:

[tex]\text{Molarity of solution}=\frac{\text{Moles of solute}\times 1000}{ \text{Volume of solution (mL)}}[/tex] .....(1)

Given values:

Molarity of NaOH = [tex]0.1mol/dm^3=0.1mol/L[/tex]         (Conversion factor: [tex]1L=1dm^3[/tex]

Volume of the solution = [tex]36cm^3=36 mL[/tex]             (Conversion factor: [tex]1mL=1cm^3[/tex]

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

[tex]0.1=\frac{\text{Moles of NaOH}\times 1000}{36}\\\\\text{Moles of NaOH}=\frac{0.1\times 36}{1000}=0.0036mol[/tex]

Hence, the number of moles of NaOH is 0.0036 moles

The first student said, "For a 20-kilogram (kg) coyote to survive, it takes around 200 kg of Wilson's phalaropes, 400 kg of brine shrimp, and 800 kg of algae!" The second student said, "No, I think it takes even more than that." 1. Which student is correct? What is your reasoning?​

Answers

Answer:

The second student is right.

Explanation:

The coyote feed on not only phalaropes but many other organisms present in the environment for its survival. There are many other organisms present in the ecosystem such as mice, squirrel, cactus fruit etc. The coyote feeds on phalaropes, the phalaropes feeds on brine shrimp and the brine shrimp feeds on algae for its survival so in this way the ecosystem moves in the forward direction. The coyote feeds on phalaropes so the energy that is present in phalaropes transferred into coyote which only 10 % while the remaining is released in the atmosphere in the form of heat energy.

What is the final velocity of a 3 kg object that starts with a 5 m/s velocity due to a 2 N force acting over 3 seconds?

We're asked to find the magnitude of the object's velocity after a force is applied for

In a mass spectrum, there are two peaks, one at m/z 63.0 with percentage abundance 69.1% and another peak at m/z 65.0 with percentage abundance 30.9%. Determine the relative atomic mass (Ar) for this element, giving the answer to 3 significant figures (no units required).

Answers

Explanation:

hope the picture above help u understand:)

The relative atomic mass (Ar) of this element is approximately 63.6 (to three significant figures).

To determine the relative atomic mass (Ar) of the element, we use the following formula:

Ar = (m₁ × % abundance1 + m₂ × % abundance2) / 100

Where:

m₁ and m₂ are the masses of the isotopes (peaks) in the mass spectrum,

% abundance1 and % abundance2 are the percentage abundances of the corresponding isotopes.

Given information:

Peak at m/z 63.0 with a percentage abundance of 69.1%.

Peak at m/z 65.0 having a percentage abundance of 30.9%.

Calculate the weighted average mass of the element's isotopes.

Ar = (63.0 × 69.1 + 65.0 × 30.9) / 100

Ar = (4347 + 2009.5) / 100

Ar = 6356.5 / 100

Ar ≈ 63.565

Noe, let's round the calculated mass to three significant figures.

Ar = 63.6

So, the relative atomic mass (Ar) of this element is approximately 63.6 (to three significant figures). This means that the average mass of the element's atoms is approximately 63.6 times the mass of one-twelfth of a carbon-12 atom, which is the standard reference for atomic masses.

Ca are made?

Answers

Answer:

H2 + CaCl2 -> 2HCl + Ca

How many grams of HCl are made when 2.93 g of

Ca are made?

Explanation:

From the given balanced chemical equation, it is clear that:

2mol. of HCl and 1mol. of Ca are produced.

2mol. of HCl weighs --- 73.0g

1mol. of Ca weighs --- 40.0g

Hence,

73.0g of HCl and 40.0g of Ca are produced.

When 2.93g of Ca is produced then, how many grams of HCl will be produced?

[tex]=> 2.93g Ca * \frac{73.0g HCl}{40.0g Ca} \\=5.35g HCl[/tex]

Which of the following diagrams is the correct electron dot diagram for Ne?

Answers

Answer:

B.

Explanation:

The electron dot diagram which is also known as the Lewis electron dot diagram is a diagram that shows an atom's valence electrons by placing dots, which represent the valence electrons of the element, around the elements symbol

The element for which the electron dot diagram is found = Neon, Ne

The atomic number of neon, Ne = 10

The electronic configuration of neon = 1s²2s²2p⁶

The valence shell is the outermost shell having   the highest value of the coefficient of the orbitals, n = 2s²2p⁶

The number valence electrons in neon = The number of electrons in the valency shell = 2 electrons + 6 electrons = 8 electrons

The number of valence electrons in neon = 8

Therefore, the electron dot diagram for neon will have 8 dots located around the Ne symbol, which gives option B

What is the formula for molarity?

What is the molar mass for barium sulfate?

When you give your numerical answer, what are the correct significant figures and how do you know that is the correct amount?

Need this ASAP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Answers

Answer: The volume of the solution is 85.7 mL

Explanation:

Molarity is defined as the amount of solute expressed in the number of moles present per liter of solution. The units of molarity are mol/L. The formula used to calculate molarity:

[tex]\text{Molarity of solution}=\frac{\text{Given mass of solute}\times 1000}{\text{Molar mass of solute}\times \text{Volume of solution (mL)}}[/tex] .....(1)

We are given:

Molarity of solution = 0.600 M

Given mass of [tex]BaSO_4[/tex] = 12.00 g

We know, molar mass of [tex]BaSO_4=[(1\times 137.33)+(1\times 32.07)+(4\times 16)]=233.4g/mol[/tex]

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

[tex]0.600=\frac{12.00\times 1000}{233.4\times \text{Volume of solution}}\\\\\text{Volume of solution}=\frac{12.00\times 1000}{233.4\times 0.600}=85.68mL=85.7mL[/tex]

The rule of significant number that is applied for the problems having multiplication and division:

The least number of significant figures in any number of the problem determines the number of significant figures in the answer.

Here, the least number of significant figures is 3 that is determined by the number, 0.600. Thus, the answer must have these many significant figures only.

Hence, the volume of the solution is 85.7 mL
