Answer:

The carbon footprint of one plastic bottle of mass 23.5 g is 34.390 g.

Explanation:

The carbon footprint of one plastic bottle can be estimated by simple rule of three. That is:

x = \frac{23.5\,g}{4100\,g}\times 6000\,g

x = 34.390\,g

The carbon footprint of one plastic bottle of mass 23.5 g is 34.390 g.

The elements chlorine and iodine have similar chemical properties because they _____. Group of answer choices have the same numb
worty [1.4K]

Answer:

Have the same number of electrons in their outer energy levels

Explanation:

Elements in the same group have similar chemical properties because they have the same number of valence electron(s) in their outermost shell.

Chlorine and Iodine have similar chemical properties because they have the same number of valence electron in their outermost shell. This can be seen from their electronic configuration as shown below:

Cl (17) => 1s² 2s²2p⁶ 3s²3p⁵

I (53) => [Kr] 4d¹⁰ 5s²5p⁵

From the above illustration:

Outer shell of Cl (3s²3p⁵) = 2 + 5 = 7 electrons

Outer shell of I (5s²5p⁵) = 2 + 5 = 7 electrons

Since they have the same number of valence electrons, therefore, they will have similar chemical properties.

A student determines measures the mass of one mole of carbon and finds it to be 12.22 grams. if the accepted value is 12.11 gram
Gre4nikov [31]

Answer:-

0.91% is the students % of error

Explanation: -

Accepted value= 12.11 grams

Measured value = 12.22 grams

Error = 12.22-12.11 = 0.11 grams

Percentage error = \frac{0.11 grams}{12.11 grams}x100

                           = 0.91 %

Thus 0.91% is the students % of error

Suppose you perform a calorimeter experiment to determine the molar heat of neutralization of an unknown acid, H A HA, with sodi
Black_prince [1.1K]

Answer:

-86.02 kJ/ mole

Explanation:

The moles of the acid used = Molarity × Volume (L) =

= 0.50 (0.0372 L)

= 0.0186 moles

The heat released = -1.6 kJ

∴ 0.0186 moles neutralization of HA heat is: -1.6 kJ

The molar heat of neutralization due to one mole of the unknown acid = -1.6/0.0186

= -86.02 kJ/ mole

A 2.40 kg block of ice is heated with 5820 J of heat. The specific heat of water is 4.18 J•g^-1•C^-1. By how much will it’s temp
MrMuchimi

Answer: The temperature rise is 0.53^0C

Explanation:

The quantity of heat required to raise the temperature of a substance by one degree Celsius is called the specific heat capacity.

Q=m\times c\times \Delta T

Q = Heat absorbed by ice = 5280 J

m = mass of ice = 2.40 kg = 2400 g   (1kg=1000g)

c = heat capacity of water = 4.18J/g^0C

Initial temperature  = T_i

Final temperature = T_f  

Change in temperature ,\Delta T=T_f-T_i=?

Putting in the values, we get:

5280J=2400g\times 4.18J/g^0C\times \Delta T

\Delta T=0.53^0C

Thus the temperature rise is 0.53^0C

Radioactive elements decay at a know rate known as half-life. Choose all of the correct statements concerning half-life. Carbon-
9966 [12]

Explanation:

Half life is simply the amount of time it takes for half of a substance to decompose.

Options;

- Carbon-14 has a half-life of 5,730 years. A 30 gram sample will be 10 grams after 5,730 years. This is incorrect. After 5730 years, 15g of the sample ought to remain.

- Nickel-59 has a half-life of 76,000 years. A sample would go through 3 half-lives in 228,000 years. This is correct. 3 * 76000 = 228,000

- Hafnium-182 has a half-life of 9 million years. A 38 gram sample would be 4.75 grams in 27 million years. This is incorrect. Mass after 3 half lives (27/9) = 9.5 (38 / 2 / 2)

- Iron-60 has a half-life of 1.5 million years. In 6 million years a 40 gram sample would be reduced to 10 grams. This is incorrect. Mass after 4 half lives (6 / 1.5) = 2.5 gram (40 / 2 / 2 /2 / 2)

- Lead-202 has a half-life of 52,500 years. The original sample must have been 120 grams if you have a 60 gram sample after 105,000 years. This is incorrect. Original sampe = 240 gram. So after 2 half lives (105,000/52500), mass left = 60 (240 / 2 /2)
