Answer:

The correct answers are "As trash, synthetic polymers are not biodegradable", "Landfills can easily fill up with synthetic polymers" and "Recycling synthetic polymers is costly".

Explanation:

Synthetic polymers are not biodegradable because of their inorganic composition, so one of the main problems they present is that landfills can easily be filled with synthetic polymers and hinder or block the passage of wastewater or irrigation water. Finally, it should be noted that the recycling of synthetic polymers is expensive since a recycling plant must be created to treat, compact and reuse them.

Have a nice day!

How much heat must be removed from 25.0g of steam at 118.0C in order to form ice at 15C
NemiM [27]

Answer:

-10778.95 J heat must be removed in order to form the ice at 15 °C.

Explanation:

Given data:

mass of steam = 25 g

Initial temperature = 118 °C

Final temperature = 15 °C

Heat released = ?

Solution:

Formula:

q = m . c . ΔT

we know that specific heat of water is 4.186 J/g.°C

ΔT = final temperature - initial temperature

ΔT = 15 °C - 118 °C

ΔT = -103 °C

now we will put the values in formula

q = m . c . ΔT

q = 25 g × 4.186 J/g.°C × -103 °C

q = -10778.95 J

so, -10778.95 J heat must be removed in order to form the ice at 15 °C.

A copper rod that has a mass of 200.0 g has an initial temperature of 20.0°C and is heated to 40.0°C. If 1,540 J of heat are nee
Romashka [77]

Heat gained in a system can be calculated by multiplying the given mass to the specific heat capacity of the substance and the temperature difference. It is expressed as follows:<span>

Heat = mC(T2-T1)</span>

1540 = 200.0 (C)(40 - 20)

If 36.9 mL of B2H6 reacted with excess oxygen gas, determine the actual yield of B2O3 if the percent yield of B2O3 was 75.7%. (T
zhuklara [117]

Answer: The actual yield of B_2O_3 is 60.0 g

Explanation:-

The balanced chemical reaction :

B_2H_6(l)+3O_2(g)\rightarrow B_2O_3(s)+3H_2O(l)

Mass of B_2H_6 =Density\times Volume=1.131g/ml\times 36.9ml=41.7g

\text{Moles of solute}=\frac{\text{given mass}}{\text{Molar Mass}}    

\text{Moles of} B_2H_6=\frac{41.7g}{27.668g/mol}=1.51moles

According to stoichiometry:

1 mole of B_2H_6 gives = 1 mole of B_2O_3

1.51 moles of B_2H_6 gives =\frac{1}{1}\times 1.51=1.51 moles of B_2O_3

Theoretical yield of B_2O_3=moles\times {Molar mass}}=1.14mol\times 69.62g/mol=79.3g

Percent yield of B_2O_3= 75.7\%

\%\text{ yield}=\frac{\text{Actual yield}}{\text{Theoretical yield}}\times 100

75.7\%=\frac{\text{Actual yield}}{79.3}\times 100

{\text{Actual yield}}=60.0g

Thus the actual yield of B_2O_3 is 60.0 g
