A farmer distributed his cabbages as follows: A certain hospital received a quarter of the
total number of bags. A nearby school received half of the remainder. A green grocer
received a third of what the school received. What remained were six bags more than
what the green grocer received. How many bags of cabbages did the farmer have?
(3​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

Let the farmer had n no of bags of cabbage .

given to hospital = n / 4

given to school = 1/2 x 3n /4

= 3n / 8

given to grocer = 1 / 3 x (3n / 8 )

= n / 8

No of bags distributed

= n / 4 + 3n / 8 + n / 8

= 6n / 8

Remaining bag

= n - 6n / 8

= 2n / 8

According to question

2n / 8 = 6 + n / 8

n / 8 = 6

n = 48 .

What is the acceleration of the object’s motion? 0.5 m/s2 -0.5 m/s2 2 m/s2 -2 m/s2

Answers

Answer:  -2m/s2

Explanation:

Using the following equation ; acceleration = Change in velocity / time

i.e  a =  v - u / t

where  'a'  = acceleration

              v  = final velocity

              u  =  initial velocity

              t   =  time

Therefore;  from the graph we have acceleration to be, 0 - 6m/s / 3s  = -2m/s2

Sulphuric acid, also called ‘king of chemicals' has the formula H2SO4. Its appearance is different from that of hydrogen and sulphur. Give two other reasons why sulphuric acid is a compound and not a mixture.

Answers

Explanation:

Before proceeding to answering the question, we have t understand what we mean by both mixture and compound.

A mixture is the physical combination of two or more substances in which the identities are retained and are mixed in the form of solutions, suspensions and colloids.

A compound on the other hand is a chemical substance composed of many identical molecules composed of atoms from more than one element held together by chemical bonds.

The two other reason why H2SO4 is a compound and not a mixture are;

1)  The components which are Hydrogen, Sulphur and Oxygen cannot be separated by physical means.

2) It has a constant melting and boiling point.

2.70g of Zn (s) reacts with 50.0 mL of 1.00 M HCl solution to produce hydrogen gas according to the reaction. (R = 0.08206 L·atm·K-1·mol-1) Zn(s) + 2HCl (aq) = ZnCl2 (aq) + H2(g) a) calculate mole of Zn used in this reaction b) calculate mole of HCl used in this reaction c) calculate which reactant is a limiting reactant d) calculate mole of hydrogen gas formed e) calculate volume of H2 gas at STP in Liters that will be produced during the reaction

Answers

Answer:

a. 0.0413 moles Zn

b. 0.0500 moles HCl

c. HCl is the limiting reactant

d. 0.0250 moles H₂

e. V = 0.56L

Explanation:

The reaction of Zn(s) with HCl is:

Zn(s) + 2HCl (aq) → ZnCl₂ (aq) + H₂(g)

Where 1 mole of Zn reacts with 2 moles of HCl.

a) To convert mass in grams to moles of a substance you need to use molar mass (Molar mass Zn: 65.38g/mol), thus:

2.70g Zn × (1mol / 65.38g) = 0.0413moles of Zn

b. Now, when you have a solution in molarity (Moles / L), you can know the moles of a volume of solution, thus:

Moles HCl:

50.0mL = 0.0500L × (1.00mol / L) = 0.0500 moles HCl

c. The limiting reactant is founded by using the chemical reaction as follows:

For a complete reaction of 0.0500 moles HCl you need:

0.0500 moles HCl × (1 mole Zn / 2 moles HCl) = 0.0250 moles Zn

As you have 0.0413 moles of Zn, and you need just 0.0250 moles for the complete reaction, Zn is the exces reactant and HCl is the limiting reactant

d.As HCl is limiting reactant and 2 moles of HCl react with 1 mole of H₂, moles of hydrogen formed are:

0.0500 moles HCl × (1 mole H₂ / 2 moles HCl) = 0.0250 moles H₂

e. Using PV = nRT, you can find volume of  gas, thus:

PV = nRT

V = nRT / P

Where P is pressure 1atm at STP, n are moles, R is gas consant 0.08206Latm/molK and T is absolute temperature 273.15K at STP.

V = 0.0250molesₓ0.082atmL/molKₓ273.15K / 1atm

V = 0.56L

Long period: During this period all the factors of production are variable. So change in any variable can increase the production.

How much water should be added to 12 ml of alcohol to obtain 12% alcohol solution?

Answers

Answer:

88 mL of water.

Explanation:

Data obtained from the question include the following:

Volume of alcohol = 12 mL

Percentage of alcohol = 12%

Volume of water =..?

We can thus, obtain the volume of water needed to make 12% of the alcohol solution as follow:

Percentage of the solution = 100%

Percentage of alcohol = 12%

Percentage of water =?

Percentage of water = percentage of solution – percentage of alcohol

Percentage of water = 100 – 12

Percentage of water = 88%

Since 12% of alcohol is equivalent to 12 mL of alcohol, therefore 88% of water will also be equivalent to 88 mL.

Therefore, 88 mL of water is needed to make 12% of alcohol.

The correct increasing order of Bond angle is H2O < NH3 < BCl3 < CCl4 H2O < NH3 < CCl4 < BCl3 NH3 < H2O < BCl3 < CCl4 NH3 < BCl3 < CCl4 < H2O

Answers

Answer:

H2O < NH3 < CCl4 < BCl3

Explanation:

Bond angle of a molecule or an ion can be explained by two concepts which are either by their valence shell electron pair repulsion (VSEPR) model or hybridization.

The VSEPR model  determines the total number of electron pairs surrounding the central atom of the species. All the electron pairs will orient themselves in such a way as to minimize the electrostatic repulsions between them. These repulsions hence determine the geometry of the covalent bond angles around the central atom.

Hence; as the number of lone pairs increases from zero to 2 the bond angles diminish progressively.

Hybridization is the mixing and blending of two or more pure atomic orbitals to form two or moe hybrid atomic orbitals which are identical in shape and energy. During the process of formation of these hybrid orbitals, The bonds formed i.e the sigma bond and the pi bond determines the bond angle of such compound.

From the given compounds;

H20 have a bond angle of 104.5°

NH3 have a bond angle of 107°

BCl3 have a bond angle of 120°

CCl4 have a bond angle of 109.5°

thus in an increasing order of bond angle:

H2O < NH3 < CCl4 < BCl3

(2 grams of iron was used, and 7 grams of copper

Answers

Answer:

First, write an equation for the reaction involved.

Fe + CuSO4 ---> FeSO4 + Cu

Now, calculate the no. of moles added in the reaction. (n.o.m. = mass /molar mass)

No. of moles of Fe added = 2 / 55.8

= 0.0358 mol

No. of moles of CuSO4 = 7 / (63.5 +32.1+16x4)

= 0.04386 mol

From the equation, the mole ratio of Fe : CuSO4 = 1:1,

meaning 1 mole of Fe reacts with 1 mole of CuSO4.

It also indicates that the no. of moles reacted in Fe equals to the no. of moles reacted in CuSO4.

0.04386 > 0.0358

The no. of moles of CuSO4 is higher than that of Fe, meaning all moles of Fe will be reacted while not all CuSO4 reacts.

Hence Fe is the limiting reagent, and CuSO4 is in excess.

All 0.0358 moles of Fe reacts, meaning the no. of moles of CuSO4 left unreacted = 0.04386 - 0.0358

= 0.0080596mol

mass of CuSO4 unreacted = 0.0080596 x (63.5 +32.1+16x4)

= 1.28g

Answers

Answer:

Ability to form four covalent bonds.

Explanation:

Carbon is the first member of group 14. It is essentially a nonmetal. It is a small atom which regularly exhibits tetra valency. This means that carbon is able to form four covalent bonds to four chemical species which may be the same or different each time. This leaves room for many different possible combination patterns of carbon with other chemical species.

Hence carbon forms a very large number of compounds due to its small size and its ability for form four covalent bonds to other chemical species in any bonding situation.
