By mistake, a quart of oil was dumped into a swimming pool that measures 25.0 m by 30.0 m. The density of the oil was 0.750 g/cm

3. Assuming the oil spread into a uniform, thin layer over the water, how thick was the oil slick?

The oil slick thick = 1.256 x 10⁻⁴ cm

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Volume is a derivative quantity derived from the length of the principal

The unit of volume can be expressed in liters or milliliters or cubic meters

The conversion is

1 cc = 1 cm3

1 dm = 1 Liter

1 L = 1.06 quart

<em>so for 1 quart = 0.943 L</em>

\tt 0.943~L=0.943\times 10^{-3}m^3

Volume of oil dumped = volume of swimming pool

\tt 0.943\times 10^{-3}~m^3=25\times 30\times h(h=thick)\\\\h=\dfrac{0.943\times 10^{-3}}{750~m^2}=1.257\times 10^{-6}~m=\boxed{\bold{1.256\times 10^{-4}~cm}}

The volume of hcl gas required to react with excess ca to produce 11.4 l of hydrogen gas at 1.62 atm and 62.0 °c is ________ l.
seropon [69]

Answer:

22.8 L  

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use <em>Gay-Lussac's Law of Combining Volumes</em> to solve this problem:

Gases <em>at the same temperature and pressure</em> react in simple whole-number ratios.

1. Write the chemical equation.

Ratio:                 2 L                             1 L

          Ca(s) + 2HCl(g) ⟶ CaCl₂(s) + H₂(g)

V/L:                                                     11.4

2. Calculate the volume of HCl.

According to the law, 2 L of HCl form 1 L of H₂.

Then, the conversion factor is (2 L HCl/1 L H₂).

Volume of HCl = 11.4 L H₂ × (2 L HCl/1 L H₂)

                         = 22.8 L HCl

We would like to make a golden standard kilogram in the shape of circular cylinder. The density of gold is 19.32 g/cm3. a) Find
iragen [17]

Explanation:

a)  Using the provided information about the density  of gold, the sample size, thickness, and the following  equations and comersion factors, find the area of   the gold leaf:

V=l \cdot w \cdot h=A \cdot h\\m=\rho \cdot V

Gold _{\rho}=19.32 \mathrm{g} / \mathrm{cm}^{3}

1 \mu=10^{-6} \mathrm{m}

First, find the volume of the sample and then find the area of the sample.

V=\frac{m}{\rho}=\frac{27.6 \mathrm{g}}{19.32 \mathrm{g} / \mathrm{cm}^{3}} \cdot\left(\frac{0.01 \mathrm{m}}{1 \mathrm{cm}}\right)^{3} =\frac{1.429 \times 10^{-6} \mathrm{m}^{3}}

V=A \cdot h \rightarrow A=\frac{V}{h}=\frac{1.429 \times 10^{-6} \mathrm{m}^{3}}{10^{-6} \mathrm{m}} \approx 1.429 \mathrm{m}^{2}

b.  Using the provided information from part a ), the radius of the cylinder, and the following equation for the volume of a cylinder, find the length of the fiber :

V=\pi r^{2} h \rightarrow h=\frac{V}{\pi r^{2}}

h=\frac{1.429 \times 10^{-6} \mathrm{m}^{3}}{\pi \cdot\left(2.5 \times 10^{-6} \mathrm{m}\right)^{2}} \approx 72778 \mathrm{m}

Which of the following is a correctly written chemical equation that demonstrates the conservation of mass?
Fantom [35]

Answer:

Option D is correct.

H₂O + CO₂      →    H₂CO₃

Explanation:

First of all we will get to know what law of conservation of mass states.

According to this law, mass can neither be created nor destroyed in a chemical equation.

This law was given by French chemist  Antoine Lavoisier in 1789. According to this law mass of reactant and mass of product must be equal, because masses are not created or destroyed in a chemical reaction.

Example:

6CO₂ + 6H₂O + energy → C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂

there are six carbon atoms, eighteen oxygen atoms and twelve hydrogen atoms on the both side of equation so this reaction followed the law of conservation of mass.

Now we will apply this law to given chemical equations:

A) H₂ + O₂   →    H₂O

There are two hydrogen and two oxygen atoms present on left side while on right side only one oxygen and two hydrogen atoms are present so mass in not conserved. This equation not follow the law of conservation of mass.

B) Mg + HCl   →   H₂ + MgCl₂

In this equation one Mg, one H and one Cl atoms are present on left side while on right side two hydrogen, one Mg and two chlorine atoms are present. This equation also not follow the law of conservation of mass.

C) KClO₃      →     KCl + O₂

There are one K, one Cl and three O atoms are present on left side of chemical equation while on right side one K one Cl and two oxygen atoms are present. This equation also not following the law of conservation of mass.

D)  H₂O + CO₂      →    H₂CO₃

There are two hydrogen, one carbon and three oxygen atoms are present on both side of equation thus, mass remain conserved. Thus is correct option.

What is the molarity of a solution that contains 2.35 g of nh3 in 0.0500 l of solution?
tankabanditka [31]
The molarity is the number of moles in 1 L of the solution. 
The mass of NH₃ given - 2.35 g
Molar mass of NH₃ - 17 g/mol
The number of NH₃ moles in 2.35 g - 2.35 g / 17 g/mol = 0.138 mol
The number of moles in 0.05 L solution - 0.138 mol 
Therefore number of moles in 1 L - 0.138 mol / 0.05 L x 1L = 2.76 mol
Therefore molarity of NH₃ - 2.76 M
