At the beginning of the school year, a chalk company receives an order for 2000 boxes which is the largest order ever placed. Ea

ch box contains 175 grams of chalk. With the efficiency of their product production at 74%, they produce just enough to match the order. What was the theoretical yield?

Answer:

  • <u>259,000 g of chalk.</u>

Explanation:

<u>1) Data:</u>

a) 2000 boxes

b) 175 g / box

c) % yield = 74%

<u>2) Formula: </u>

  • % yield = (theoretical yield / actual yield) × 100

<u>3) Solution:</u>

a) Calcualte the actual yield:

  • mass of product = 2000 box × 175 g/ box = 350,000 g

b) Solve for the theoretical yield from the % yield formula:

  • % yield = (theoretical yield / actual yield) × 100

        ⇒ theoretical yield = % yield × actual yield / 100

             theoretical yield = 74% × 350,000g / 100 = 259,000 g

a 15.0 kg chunk of ice falls off the top of an iceberg if the chunk of ice Falls 8.00 to the surface of the water what is the ki
kvv77 [185]
When we can get the Kinetic energy from this formula KE= 1/2 M V^2and we can get the potential energy from this formula PE =  M g H
we can set that the kinetic energy at the bottom of the fall equals the potential energy at the top so, KE = PE
1/2 MV^2 = M g H
1/2 V^2 = g H
when V is the velocity, g is an acceleration of gravitational force (9.8 m^2/s) and H is the height of the fall (8 m).
∴ v^2 = 2 * 9.8 * 8 = 156.8
∴ v= √156.8 = 12.5 m/s

Use coulomb's law to calculate the ionization energy in kj/mol of an atom composed of a proton and an electron separated by 185.
Tems11 [23]
Coulomb's law mathematically is:
F = kQ₁Q₂/r²
we integrate this with respect to distance to obtain the expression for energy:
E = kQ₁Q₂/r; where k is the Coulomb's constant = 9 x 10⁹; Q are the charges, r is the seperation
Charge on proton = charge on electron = 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ C
E = (9 x 10⁹ x 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ x 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹) / (185 x 10⁻¹²)
E = 1.24 x 10⁻¹⁸ Joules per proton/electron pair
Number of pairs in one mole = 6.02 x 10²³
Energy = 6.02 x 10²³ x 1.24 x 10⁻¹⁸
= 746.5 kJ

How many molecules are in 70.7 grams of C4H10?
OlgaM077 [116]

Answer:

1.216mol

Explanation:

The molar mass of C₄H₁₀ is (12 x4)+ (1x 10) = 48 + 10 = 58g

1 grams C4H10 is equal to 0.017205129881525 mole.

70.7 grams = 70.7 x 0.017205129881525  = 1.216mol

Which object(s) formed last in our solar system?
AnnyKZ [126]

Long year ago In space, gravity attracts dust and gas together which created the young solar system. It pulled low-density cloud together to produce initially the solar nebula. These clouds are made of interstellar gas and dust.  

The sun formed first from these nebula and dust.

Planetesimals is just a process indicates the formation of Earth and the other planets from concentrations of dust and diffused matter in the solar system.

Inner planets are the planets located closure to the sun in comparison to outer planets. These inner planets are mercury, venus, earth and mars. Thus, 4.5 billion year ago Inner planets formed at last.
