Answer:

\°C=5.8x10^3\°C

\°F=1.1x10^4\°F

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, for the calculation of the temperature in degree Celsius we subtract 273.15 to the given temperature in kelvins:

\°C=6100-273.15\\\\\°C=5.8x10^3\°C

Next, by applying the following equation we compute it in degree Fahrenheit:

\°F=(5.8x10^{3}*9/5) + 32\\\\\°F=1.1x10^4\°F

Clearly, since the initial unit has two significant figures the computed units also show two significant figures.

Regards.

Fluorine gas is placed in contact with calcium metal at high temperatures to produce calcium fluoride powder. What is the formul
Mars2501 [29]

Answer:

Upper F subscript 2 (g) plus upper C a (s) right arrow with delta above upper C a upper F subscript 2 (s).

Explanation:

This is a chemical reaction problem.

In expressing any chemical reaction, we need to understand that there are reactants and products.

  • The reactants are the species on the left hand side that are combining.
  • The products are the species on the right hand side that are formed.
  • Every chemical reaction is obeys the law of conservation of matter i.e equal number of matter on both sides.

Using the statement of this problem, we can deduce that;

 Reactants are Fluorine gas and Calcium metal

  Product is Calcium Fluoride

Note: A metal is a solid(s) and powder is a solid(s). A gas is denoted as (g). They depict the state of the species reacting.

                    F₂_{(g)}     +    Ca_{(s)}               →           CaF₂_{(s)}

We can see that equal number of atoms are on both sides of the expression.

How many grams o an ointment base must be added to 45 g o clobetasol (T EMOVAT E) ointment, 0.05% w/w, to change its strength to
saw5 [17]

Answer:

Drug calculation

If we have 45g of clobetasol  = 0.05%w/w

Then what mass in g of clobetasol is in 0.03%w/w = 45 x 0.03/0.05 =27g

It means that 27g of clobetasol must be added to change the drug strength to 0.03% w/w

Sodium reacts with chlorine gas according to the following reaction: 2Na(s)+Cl2(g)→2NaCl(s) What volume of Cl2 gas, measured at
asambeis [7]

Answer:6.719Litres of Cl2 gas.

Explanation:According to eqn of rxn

2Na +Cl2=2NaCl

P=689torr=689/760=0.91atm

T=39°C+273=312K

according to stoichiometry of the reaction,1Moles of Cl2 gives 2moles of NaCl

But 28g of NaCl was given,we have to convert this to moles by using the relation, n=mass/MW

MW of NaCl=23+35.5=58.5g/mol

n=28g(mass given of NaCl)/58.5

n=0.479moles of NaCl

Going back to the reaction,

if 1moles of Cl2 produces 2moles of NaCl

x moles of Cl2 will give 0.479moles of NaCl.

x=0.479*1/2

x=0.239moles of Cl2.

To find the volume, we use ideal ggas eqn,PV=nRT

V=nRT/P

V=0.239*0.082*312/0.91

V=6.719Litres

Phosphorus has the molecular formula p4, and sulfur has the molecular formula s8. how many grams of phosphorus contain the same
Alinara [238K]
1) Find the number of molecules in 7.88 g of sulfur

molar mass of S8 = 8*atomic mass of S = 8 * 32.0 g / mol = 256.0 g/mol

Number of moles  = mass in grams / atomic mass = 7.88 g / 256.0 g / mol = 0.0308 moles

2) Find the mass of 0.0308 moles of P4

mass = number of moles * molar mass

molar mass of P4 = 4 * atomic mass of P = 4 * 31 g/mol = 124 g/mol

mass of P4 = 0.0308 moles * 124 g/mol = 3.8192g ≈ 3.82 g.

Answer: 3.82 grams of P4 will have the same number of molecules as 7.88 g of S8 (that is 0.0308 moles of molecules)
