Many human activities result in carbon dioxide emissions.
Our carbon footprint is a measure of how much carbon dioxide we each cause to be produced.
(a) Why should we be concerned about our carbon footprint?
(b) Most power stations in the UK burn coal.
Coal was formed from tree-like plants over millions of years.
Suggest why burning wood instead of coal would help to reduce our carbon footprint.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

: the average human-driven CO2 emissions per year climbed 1.4%

every household makes about 7 tons worth of Co2

A C02 footprints are produced at such high rates and hurts plants and the environment

B coal is a very inexpensive and efficient way to generate electricity. Since its a large quantity of them which still produces alot co2  unlike wood, burning wood doesn't  produce as much but it's much harder to ignite and get to last because it takes coal almost 100 degrees and wood takes about 700 degrees

C
A substance with a pH of 4
D
A substance with a pH of 8

Answers

Answer:

D . A substance with a pH of 8

Explanation:

pH stands for "Potential for Hydrogen." This is an indicator of a solution's acidity or alkalinity. It is also used to tell which chemicals are great for cleaning.

pH 7 and pH 8 are both considered "neutral pH," thus, solutions with these pH are often used as dishwashing detergents because they do not destroy the surfaces of objects. However, pH 8 is said to be more alkaline in nature. This allows it to destroy the residues, such as fats and oils, in pots and pans. It is the pH of baking soda.

How many moles of sand (SiO2) are in 30 g of sand?

Answers

Answer:

0.50 mol SiO₂

General Formulas and Concepts:

Math

Pre-Algebra

Order of Operations: BPEMDAS

Brackets Parenthesis Exponents Multiplication Division Addition Subtraction Left to Right

Chemistry

Atomic Structure

Reading a Periodic TableUsing Dimensional AnalysisExplanation:

Step 1: Define

30 g SiO₂ (sand)

Step 2: Identify Conversions

Molar Mass of Si - 28.09 g/mol

Molar Mass of O - 16.00 g/mol

Molar Mass of SiO₂ - 28.09 + 2(16.00) = 60.09 g/mol

Step 3: Convert

Set up:                                [tex]\displaystyle 30 \ g \ SiO_2(\frac{1 \ mol \ SiO_2}{60.09 \ g \ SiO_2})[/tex]Multiply/Divide:                  [tex]\displaystyle 0.499251 \ mol \ SiO_2[/tex]

Step 4: Check

Follow sig figs and round. We are given 2 sig figs.

0.499251 mol SiO₂ ≈ 0.50 mol SiO₂

Answer:

[tex]\boxed {\boxed {\sf About \ 0.5 \ moles \ of \ SiO_2}}[/tex]

Explanation:

To convert from grams to moles, we must use the molar mass.

1. Molar Mass

Use the Periodic Table to find the masses of the individual elements (silicon and oxygen) in sand.

Silicon (Si): 28.085 g/mol Oxygen (O): 15.999 g/mol

Examine the formula for sand: SiO₂. There is a subscript of 2 after oxygen, so there must be 2 oxygen atoms. Multiply oxygen's mass by 2 and add silicon's mass to find the molar mass of sand.

SiO₂: 2(15.999 g/mol) + 28.085 g/mol= g/mol

2. Calculate Moles

Use the molar mass as ratio.

[tex]\frac{60.083 \ g \ SiO_2}{1 \ mol \ SiO_2}[/tex]

Multiply by the given number of grams (30)

[tex]30 \ g \ SiO_2 * \frac{60.083 \ g \ SiO_2}{1 \ mol \ SiO_2}[/tex]

Flip the fraction so the grams of sand will cancel.

[tex]30 \ g \ SiO_2 *\frac{1 \ mol \ SiO_2}{60.083 \ g \ SiO_2}[/tex]

[tex]30 *\frac{1 \ mol \ SiO_2}{60.083 }[/tex]

[tex]\frac{30 \ mol \ SiO_2}{60.083 }[/tex]

[tex]0.499309289 \ mol \ SiO_2[/tex]

3. Round

The original measurement of grams has 1 signfiicant figure. We must round our answer to 1 sig fig.

For the answer we found, that is the tenth place. The 9 in the hundredth tells us to round the 4 to a 5.

[tex]\approx 0.5 \ mol \ SiO_2[/tex]

There are about 0.5 moles of SiO₂ in 30 grams.

How many grams of H2O2 will be produced if 14.86-grams of water is reacted with excess oxygen? How many molecules of H2O2 were produced?

2H2O (l) + O2 (g) ® 2H2O2 (aq)

Answers

Answer:

4.99 ×10²³ molecules

Mass = 28.22 g

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of H₂O₂ produced = ?

Mass of water react = 14.86 g

Number of molecules of H₂O₂ produced = ?

Solution:

Chemical equation:

2H₂O + O₂        →     2H₂O₂

Number of moles of water:

Number of moles = mass/molar mass

Number of moles = 14.86 g/ 18 g/mol

Number of moles = 0.83 mol

Now we will compare the moles of water and H₂O₂.

                   H₂O          :               H₂O₂

                    2              :                2

                  0.83           :             0.83

Mass of H₂O₂:

Mass = number of moles × molar mass

Mass = 0.83 mol × 34 g/mol

Mass = 28.22 g

Number of molecules:

1 mole = 6.022×10²³ molecules

0.83 mol × 6.022×10²³ molecules / 1 mol

4.99 ×10²³ molecules

Scientific Method.

Explanation:

A scientific method is basically a method or a process when you conduct an experiment. Normally, the process goes like this:

1. You make like a question or something that you want to investigate, it's like the aim of the experiment.

2. You make an experiment and a hypothesis. A hypothesis is basically a guess on how the results of the experiment would turn out. You don't have to be correct for the hypothesis since there is no right or wrong answer.

3. Conduct the experiment. I don't think this needs a detailed explanation since experiments vary from one another.

4. Collect results. The data you collect come in different ways based on your experiment, but it is crucial you get data so that you can answer your question in 1.

5. Make inferences. You can't directly get a conclusion or answer from the results, so inferences are needed.

6. Craft a conclusion or answer. This is the final step when conducting an experiment and the part where you have the answer you needed when you conducted the experiment :)

The second option as shown in the attached drawing

Explanation:

The given parameters are;

The reading on the speedometer of one car = 20 m/s

The reading on the speedometer of the other car = 72 km/h = 20 m/s

The blue arrow = 20 m/s

Therefore, given that the speeds of both cars are equal (20 m/s = 72 km/h = 20 m/s),  the pair of arrows that represent the relationship of speeds of the two cars is two equal length blue arrows which is the second option

The attached diagram showing the pair of arrows that represents the relationship of speeds of the two cars is drawn using Microsoft Visio.

Complete the three words. The oxidation state tells you how many electrons an atom has g....................... , l......................... , or s......................... , in forming a compound.

Answers

Answer:Gained, Lost , Shared

Explanation:

The oxidation state tells you how many electrons an atom has GAINED.................. , LOST....................... , or SHARED........................ , in forming a compound.

Oxidation state is defined as the  the total number of electrons that an atom gains or loses when forming a chemical bond with another atom.

----To form an ionic bond for example in NaCl, Na, with 11 electrons and one valence electron in its outermost shell donates or lose that valence electron to Chlorine  with 17 electron and 7 in its outermost shell. Therefore Sodium, Na acquires the +1 oxidaton state to become stable and Chlorine acquires the -1 oxidation state  to become stable  forming the  NaCl compound.

To form a covalent compound, There must be sharing of electrons between atoms.For example, in PCl3,  The  phosphorous atom with atomic number 15 shares its three unpaired electrons with the single valence electrons of three chlorine atoms. making the four molecules to attain stability with  Phosphorous having +3 and the chlorine atoms having -1 oxidation states

A chemist is studying the properties of a gas under various conditions. He observes that when the gas is at room temperature and low pressure, it behaves as an ideal gas. When the gas is cooled to 10 kelvin and is placed under high pressure, however, it deviates significantly from an ideal gas. Explain these observations

Answers

Answer:

An ideal gas is a theoretical concept and a real gas behaves in an ideal manner under conditions which includes a high temperature and a low pressure such that the gas has high kinetic energy, and the intermolecular forces between the molecules are weak

The Ideal Gas Law is P·V = n·R·T

Where;

P = The pressure of the gas

V = The volume of the gas

n = The number of moles of the gas

R = The Universal Gas Constant

T = The temperature of the gas

For a gas cooled to 10 Kelvin and placed under high pressure, the interaction between individual gas molecules increases, and the kinetic energy of the gases is much lower and more comparable to the inter molecular forces between the gas molecules, which in turn produces observable changes from the initial ideal behavior of the gas such that the gas behavior deviates from the Ideal Gas Laws appreciably and are better modelled by the Van der Waals Equations which takes into account, the volume the gas particles occupy and the intermolecular forces between the molecules

The Van der Waals equation is presented as follows;

[tex]P = \dfrac{R \cdot T}{V - b} - \dfrac{a}{V^2}[/tex]

Where;

V = The molar volume

a = The gas constant a represents the attractive forces between the gas particles

b = Represent the volume occupied by the particles of the gas

Explanation:

Answer: A, B, & C

Explanation:

A. The ideal gas model assumes that gas particles experience no intermolecular attractions and these forces cause the gas to deviate from ideal behavior.

B. At very low temperatures, gas particles move slowly.

C. At very high pressures, gas particles are very close together.

Soil with high amounts of
_____ is acidic.
Magnesium
Potassium
Hydrogen Ions
Calcium

Answers

Answer:

C. Hydrogen Ions.

Explanation:

The pH level of soils is measured based upon the acidity or basicity level in the soil. The pH scale usually measures between 0-14. 7 is the neutral pH level of soil and a pH level below 7 is considered acidic and above 7 is alkaline.

So, soil with a high amount of hydrogen ions (H+) will be considered acidic. As the amount of hydrogen ions increases in the soil, the pH level of the soil decreases, making it acidic.

Therefore, option C is correct.

In the equation above,

Reactant:

Suppose that 3.33 g of acetone at 25.0 °C condenses on the surface of a 44.0-g block of aluminum that is initially at 25 °C. If the heat released during condensation goes only toward heating the metal, what is the final temperature (in °C) of the metal block?

Answers

Answer:

68.6 °C

Explanation:

From conservation of energy, the heat lost by acetone, Q = heat gained by aluminum, Q'

Q = Q'

Q = mL where Q = latent heat of vaporization of acetone, m = mass of acetone = 3.33 g and L = specific latent heat of vaporization of acetone = 518 J/g

Q' = m'c(θ₂ - θ₁) where m' = mass of aluminum = 44.0 g, c = specific heat capacity of aluminum = 0.9 J/g°C, θ₁ = initial temperature of aluminum = 25°C and θ₂ = final temperature of aluminum = unknown

So, mL = m'c(θ₂ - θ₁)

θ₂ - θ₁ = mL/m'c

θ₂ = mL/m'c + θ₁

substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have

θ₂ = 3.33 g × 518 J/g/(44.0 g × 0.9 J/g°C) + 25 °C

θ₂ = 1724.94 J/(39.6 J/°C) + 25 °C

θ₂ = 43.56 °C + 25 °C

θ₂ = 68.56 °C

θ₂ ≅ 68.6 °C

So, the final temperature (in °C) of the metal block is 68.6 °C.

The final temperature of the metal block is 74.97°C

What is the specific heat?

The specific heat of a substance is the required quantity of heat needed to raise the temperature of 1 gram of the substance by 1° C.

From the parameters given:

The mass of acetone = 3.33 g

The number of moles of acetone is:

[tex]\mathbf{= 3.33 g \times \dfrac{mol}{58.08 \ mol}}[/tex]

= 0.0573 mol

At standard conditions, the heat of vaporization of acetone is:

[tex]\mathbf{\Delta H = 32.0 \ kJ/mol \times 0.0578 \ mol } \\ \\ \mathbf{\Delta H = 1.8496 \ kJ } \\ \\ \mathbf{ \Delta H = 1.85 \times 10^3 \ J}[/tex]

Given that:

The mass of the metal (m) = 44.0 gThe initial temperature [tex]\mathbf{T_1}[/tex] = 25° CThe final temperature [tex]\mathbf{T_2 = ???}[/tex]

The specific heat of the aluminum is = 0.903 J/g° C

The heat energy can be computed as:

q = msΔT

q = 41 g × 0.903 J/g° C × (x - 25°C)

Using the calorimetry principle, heat energy lost by metal = heat energy gained by acetone.

i.e.

[tex]\mathbf{q_{(acetone)} gain = q_{(metal)} lost }[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{-1.85 \times 10^3 \ J = - 41 g \times 0.903 \ J/g^0 C \times ( x - 25^0 c) }[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{1.85 \times 10^3 \ J = 41 g \times 0.903 \ J/g^0 C \times ( x - 25^0 c) }[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{(x - 25 ^0 C) = \dfrac{1.85 \times 10^3 \ J }{ 41 g \times 0.903 \ J/g^0 C}}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{(x - 25 ^0 C) = 49.97^0 C}}[/tex]
