First we need to know that the boiling point of water in C is 100 and we just need to solve for x in the equation:

-33.75-(-77.75) / 100 = 100-(-77.75) / x
44.4/100 = 177.75 / x
 x = 177.75*100/44.4 = 400.33

The boiling point of water in ∘a would be 400.33∘a.

<u>Answer:</u> The boiling point of water is 400.34^oA

<u>Explanation:</u>

To convert the units of temperature, we use the equation:

\frac{\text{X-LFP}}{\text{UFP-LFP}}=\frac{\text{Y-LFP}}{\text{UFP-LFP}}

where,

X = temperature in ^oA

Y = temperature in ^oC

LFP = lower fixed point

UFP = upper fixed point

LFP of ^oA is 0°A

UFP of ^oA is 100°A

LFP of ^oC is -77.75°A

UFP of ^oC is -33.35°A

Normal boiling point of water = 100^oC

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\frac{T(^oA)-0^oA}{100^oA-0^oA}=\frac{100^oC-(-77.75^oC)}{-33.35^oC-(-77.75^oC)}\\\\\frac{T(^oA)}{100^oA}=\frac{177.75^oC}{44.4^oC}\\\\T(^oA)=400.34^oA

Hence, the boiling point of water is 400.34^oA

If the frequency of a radio station is 88.1 MHz (8.81 × 107 Hz), what is the wavelength of the wave used by this radio station f
Grace [21]

Hello!

If the frequency of a radio station is 88.1 MHz, the wavelength of the wave used by this radio station for its broadcast is 3.403 m

<h2>Why?</h2>

We are going to use the following equation that shows the relation of the frequency of a wave with its wavelength, knowing that radio waves are electromagnetic waves and they travel at the speed of light (299 792 458 m/s):

Wavelength=\frac{Speed_{Light}}{Frequency}= \frac{299 792 458 m/s}{8.81*10^{7} Hz}=3.402865\approx3.403 m

Have a nice day!

A 0.529-g sample of gas occupies 125 ml at 60. cm of hg and 25°c. what is the molar mass of the gas?
Llana [10]

<span>Let's </span>assume that the gas has ideal gas behavior. <span>
Then we can use ideal gas formula,
PV = nRT<span>

</span><span>Where, P is the pressure of the gas (Pa), V is the volume of the gas (m³), n is the number of moles of gas (mol), R is the universal gas constant ( 8.314 J mol</span></span>⁻¹ K⁻¹) and T is temperature in Kelvin.<span>
<span>
</span>P = 60 cm Hg = 79993.4 Pa
V = </span>125  mL = 125 x 10⁻⁶ m³

n = ?

<span> R = 8.314 J mol</span>⁻¹ K⁻¹<span>
T = 25 °C = 298 K
<span>
By substitution,
</span></span>79993.4 Pa<span> x </span>125 x 10⁻⁶ m³ = n x 8.314 J mol⁻¹ K⁻¹ x 298 K<span>
                                          n = 4.0359 x 10</span>⁻³ mol

<span>
Hence, moles of the gas</span> = 4.0359 x 10⁻³ mol<span>

Moles = mass / molar mass

</span>Mass of the gas  = 0.529 g 

<span>Molar mass of the gas</span> = mass / number of moles<span>
                                    = </span>0.529 g / 4.0359 x 10⁻³ mol<span>
<span>                                    = </span>131.07 g mol</span>⁻¹<span>

Hence, the molar mass of the given gas is </span>131.07 g mol⁻¹

The chemical equation below shows the burning of magnesium (Mg) with oxygen (O2) to form magnesium oxide (MgO). 2Mg + O2 Right a
Nadusha1986 [10]

Answer:

64.0

Explanation:

2Mg+O2 ---> 2MgO

use dimentional analysis to find the amount of moles of O2 needed first

4.00molMg x 1.00mol O2/ 2.00 mol Mg=. 2.00 mol O2

using the coefficients you can see the mole ratio for O2:Mg the mole ratio is 1:2 which is why there is 1 mole on the top for 2 moles on the bottom. The Mg would cancel and multiply 4 by 1 then divide by 2, or multipy 4 by 1/2

Now that you have the moles of O2 you use the molar mass to find the grams in 2 moles of O2

2.00 mol O2 x 32.0g/1.00 mol = 64.0 g

multiply 2 by 32

All amino acids that are found in proteins, except for proline, contain a(n); Group of answer choices amino group carbonyl group
Jobisdone [24]

Answer:

amino group

Explanation:

There are twenty (20) amino acids in nature. Generally, each amino acid is structurally made up of a central carbon atom called alpha carbon attached to a hydrogen, carboxylic acid group (-COOH) and an amine group (-NH2). However, one particular amino acid called PROLINE posseses an exception to this.

Proline, which is the only cyclic amino acid, is also the only amino acid that forms a secondary amine group i.e. loss of hydrogen atoms in its amine group when in a protein structure. This means that when in a protein, PROLINE does not have an AMINE GROUP.
