Which of the following could not act as a medium for a mechanical wave?
a) air
b) empty space
c) liquid water
d) a solid rope

Answers

Answer 1
I believe it is either A or B
Answer 2

Answer:

b) empty space

Explanation:

A mechanical cannot travel through empty space. So option (b) is correct.

A mechanical wave is a wave which needs a material medium for its propagation. For example sound, water waves etc . The medium required by the wave can be a solid, liquid or a gas. Empty space doesn't have any medium, so a mechanical wave cannot travel through empty space.

A flexible vessel contains 65.8 L of gas at a pressure of 2.07 atm. Under the conditions of constant temperature and constant number of moles of gas, what is the pressure of the gas (in atm) when the volume of the vessel increased by a factor of 16.00

Answers

Answer: Pressure of the gas is 0.129375 atm when the volume of the vessel increased by a factor of 16.00.

Explanation:

The formula for ideal gas equation is as follows.

[tex]PV = Nk_{b}T[/tex]

where,

[tex]k_{b}[/tex] = Boltzmann constant

N = number of moles

That can also be written as:

[tex]\frac{PV}{T} = constant[/tex]

As pressure and volume are inversely proportional to each other. So, if one of the state variable is increased then the other one will decrease or vice-versa.

So, if volume of the vessel increased by a factor of 16.00 then it means pressure is decreased by a factor of 16.00

Therefore, final volume is as follows.

[tex]65.8 L \times 16.00\\= 1052.8 L[/tex]

Now, final pressure is as follows.

[tex]\frac{2.07}{16.00}\\= 0.129375 atm[/tex]

Initially the product of pressure and volume is as follows.

[tex]PV = 2.07 \times 65.8\\= 136.206[/tex]

Hence, if volume of the vessel increased by a factor of 16.00 and pressure is decreased by a factor of 16.00 then its product is as follows.

[tex]PV = 0.129375 \times 1052.8\\= 136.206[/tex]

Here, product of pressure and volume remains the same.

Thus, we can conclude that pressure of the gas is 0.129375 atm when the volume of the vessel increased by a factor of 16.00.

A solution of KMnO4 has an absorbance of 0.539 when measured in the colorimeter. Determine the concentration of the KMnO4 given the following data for a calibration plot.

Concentration of KMNO4 (M) Absorbance
0.0150 0.081
0.0300 0.159
0.0450 0.260
0.0600 0.334

Answers

Answer:

Concentration of unknown solution is 0.0416 M

Explanation:

As we know  

Absorbance is equal to the product of molar absorptivity of KMnO4 m, path length and concentration

From the given set of graphical data, it is clear that the absorbance vs concentration is a straight line.  

From the graph, we can obtain-  

Y = 5.73 X – 0.0065

Absorbance = 0.232

0.232 = 5.73 X – 0.0065

X = 0.0416  

Concentration of unknown solution is 0.0416 M

Whether or not the process is observed in nature, which of the following could account for the transformation of phosphorus-28 to silicon-28?

a. beta decay.
b. eletron capture
c. positron emission
d. alpha decay

Answers

Answer:

positron emission

Explanation:

Positron emission,involves the decrease in the nuclear positive charge thus the atomic number of the daughter nucleus decreases by one unit compared to that of the parent nucleus while the mass number of the daughter nucleus remains the same as that of the parent nucleus.

Thus, when phosphorus-28 is transformed into to silicon-28, a positron emission has taken place because the mass number of the daughter nucleus remained the same while the atomic number of the daughter nucleus was decreased by one unit.

3. 3. A 90.-mL sample of juice was titrated with the I2(aq) solution described above using a sb buret. The initial reading of the sb buret was 58.3 mL. When the endpoint was reached, the reading on the sb buret was 26.9 mL. How many mg of Vitamin C were in the juice sample

Answers

Answer:

2765mg of Vitamin C assuming the concentration of I2 = 0.500M

Explanation:

Iodine, I2, reacts with vitamin C in a ratio of 1:1 (The moles of  I2 added = Moles of Vitamin C in the sample). To solve this question we must find the difference in volume from the initial reading to the endpoint reading. Now, ASSUMING the molar concentration of the I2(aq) solution is 0.500M we can find the moles of I2 = Moles of Vitamin C. With its molar mass -176.12g/mol- we can find its mass:

Moles I2:

Volume  = 58.3mL - 26.9mL = 31.4mL = 0.0314L * (0.500mol / L) = 0.0157 moles I2 = Moles Vitamin C

Mass Vitamin C:

0.0157 moles * (176.12g/mol) = 2.765g of Vitamin C * (1000mg/1g) =

2765mg of Vitamin C assuming the concentration of I2 = 0.500M

The oxygen atom of a ketone (such as cyclohexanone) contains 2 lone pairs of electrons. These pairs of electrons most likely reside in what type of orbital

Answers

Answer: The given pairs of electrons most likely reside in [tex]sp^{2}[/tex] type of orbital.

Explanation:

As it is given that two lone pair of electrons are present on the oxygen atom of ketone (such as cyclohexanone).

Also, there will be one bond pair between carbon and oxygen atom.

Hence, total electrons present in the domain are as follows.

2 lone pairs + 1 bon pair of electron = 3 electron domains

This means that there will be [tex]sp^{2}[/tex] type of orbital present.

Thus, we can conclude that given pairs of electrons most likely reside in [tex]sp^{2}[/tex] type of orbital.

a) You should release the H2 first.
b) Your friend should release the Cl2 first.
c) You both should release the gases at the same time.
d) You need to know the length of the room to answer this question.
e) You need to know the temperature to answer this question.

Answers

Answer: It is true that Your friend should release the [tex]Cl_{2}[/tex] first.

Explanation:

The velocity of particles of a gas is inversely proportional to the mass of gas. This means that more is the mass of gas less will be its velocity.

Or, more will be the mass of gas more slowly it will move from one place to another.

The molar mass of chlorine gas is more than the molar mass of hydrogen gas. Therefore, chlorine gas will move slowly.

So, your friend should release the [tex]Cl_{2}[/tex] gas first and then according to the length of room you should release the [tex]H_{2}[/tex] gas.

Thus, we can conclude that it is true that Your friend should release the [tex]Cl_{2}[/tex] first.

2.67 Determine the density (g/mL) for each of the following:
a. A 20.0-mL sample of a salt solution has a mass of 24.0 g.

Answers

1.2 g/mL, you find this by dividing 24.0g by 20.0 mL

The density (g/mL) for a 20.0-mL sample of a salt solution has a mass of 24.0 g is 1.2 g/ml.

What is density?

Density is the mass per unit volume. Density is a scalar quantity. It is denoted by d and the symbol for density is given as rho, a Greek symbol. Density is calculated as mass divided by volume.

Mass is the quantity of matter in a physical body. The product of the molar mass of the compound and the moles of the substance are defined as mass.

Volume is the space occupied by a three-dimensional object. Volume is calculated by dividing mass by density.

Given, the 20.0-mL sample of a salt solution, which is the volume.

The mass of the solution is 24.0 g

To calculate the density

mass/volume

24.0 / 20.0 = 1.2 g/ml

Thus, the density of the given salt solution is 1.2 g/ml.

Answers

Answer:

Identify the indicated protons in the following molecules as unrelated, homotopic, enantiotopic, or diastereotopic. a) Methyls a & b: _________ b) Ha & Hc: ________

Explanation:

Homotopic hydrogens:

Consider two hydrogens in the given molecule and replace one by one with a different atom say for example deuterium, then if the two molecules formed by replacing hydrogens are the same then the two hydrogens are called homotopic hydrogens.

After replacing the two hydrogens with a different atom then, enantiomers are formed then, the two hydrogens are called enantiotopic hydrogens.

After replacing the two hydrogens with a different atom then, diastereomers are formed then, the two hydrogens are called diastereotopic hydrogens.

In the methyl group, select two hydrogens and replace one hydrogen atom with a D-atom name the compound.

Again replace another hydrogen atom with D-atom.

Name it.

If both are the same then, the hydrogens are homotopic and they are shown below:

Hence, they are homotopic protons.
