3. How did ethanol use affect the shortage of corn available to consumers during and

after the drought of 2012? Do you think that commodities in one sector should be used

in another economic sector? How might the concept of needs and wants affect your

analysis of this issue?

Answers

Answer 1

Due to drought, the production of corn decreases and shortage of it occurs.

Effects of drought

Yes, commodities in one sector should be used  in another sector because scientist invented methods in which one commodity is used in several sectors for the production of new products.

Corn was used for the production of ethanol which causes the shortage of corn that was available to consumers during and  after the drought condition of 2012 so we can conclude that due to drought, the production of corn decreases and shortage of it occurs.

A balloon is floating around outside your window. The temperature outside is 31 ∘C , and the air pressure is 0.700 atm . Your neighbor, who released the balloon, tells you that he filled it with 4.10 moles of gas. What is the volume of gas inside this balloon? Express to THREE signficant figures.

Answers

Answer:

the volume of gas inside this balloon = 146.3 L

Explanation:

Given that:

The temperature T = 31 °C = ( 31 + 273.15 )K = 304.15 K

The air pressure P = 0.700 atm

number of moles of gas n = 4.10 moles

Gas constant = 0.0821 L atm/K/mol

The objective is to calculate the volume of the gas inside the ballon.

Using the Ideal gas equation

PV = nRT

V = nRT/P

V = (4.10×0.0821×304.15)/0.700

V = 102.3799/0.700

V = 146.257 L

V = 146.3 L

Thus, the volume of gas inside this balloon = 146.3 L

If a gas displays a solubility of 0.00290M at a partial pressure of 125 kPa, what is the proportionality constant for this gas in this solvent and at this temperature?

Answers

Answer:

The proportionality constant ( Henry’s constant) = 2.32 * 10^-5 M/kPa

Explanation:

Here in this question, we are concerned with calculating the proportionality constant for this gas.

Mathematically, we can get this from Henry law

From Henry law;

Concentration = Henry constant * partial pressure

Thus Henry constant = concentration/partial pressure

Henry constant = 0.00290 M/125 kPa = 2.32 * 10^-5 M/kPa

calculate the pH of 500cm3 of 0.2mol/dm3 Ca(OH2), assume complete ionisation​

Answers

Answer:

The pH of 500 cm³, 0.2 mol/dm³, Ca(OH₂) is ≈ 13.6

Explanation:

The given parameters are;

Concentration of the calcium hydroxide, Ca(OH₂) = 0.2 mol/dm³

Volume of the calcium hydroxide, Ca(OH₂) = 500 cm³

Given that the calcium hydroxide, Ca(OH₂),  undergoes complete ionization in water, complete dissociation, we have;

Ca(OH₂)  ⇄  Ca²⁺ + 2 OH⁻

Therefore, we have;

2 moles of [OH⁻] for each mole of Ca(OH₂) which gives the concentration of  [OH⁻] as

[OH⁻] = 2 × 0.2 ≈ 0.4 mol/dm³

The pH is given by the formula

pH = 14 + ㏒₁₀ [OH⁻]

pH = 14 + ㏒₁₀ (0.4) = 14 - 0.3979 = 13.6021 ≈ 13.6

The pH of the 500 cm³ 0.2 mol/dm³ Ca(OH₂) ≈ 13.6.

A. You could use Carbon(C)
B. You could use Potassium (k)
C. You could use Titanium (T)
D. You could use Manganese (Mn)


Answers

Answer:

The correct option is;

D. Manganese (Mn)

Explanation:

Manganese is very brittle, hard, iron like silvery-gray metal, that is difficult to melt. In air, Manganese slowly disintegrate in a similar manner to iron rusting in water

Manganese and iron have similar chemical and physical properties however manganese is more harder and more brittle than iron

A brittle material is one that easily breaks without deforming elastically

Therefore, manganese, due to its very iron like appearance and brittle nature will be suitable to replace the metal wall and crumble easily when the actor hits it.

An element’s most stable ion forms an ionic compound with bromine, having the formula XBr2. If the ion of element "X" has a mass number of 230 and has 86 electrons, what is the identity of the element, and how many neutrons does it have?

Answers

Answer:

88

Explanation:

The ion has a charge of 2+, therefore the number of neutrons it possess is 86+2

which equals 88

The element X having a mass number of 230 and has 86 electrons is radium and has  142 neutrons.

An atom is composed basically of electrons, protons and neutrons. In a neutral atom, the number of protons and electrons are equal. The number of neutrons is the difference between the mass number and the number of protons (atomic number).

Since we know that the ion of the element X has 86 electrons and the compound formed is XBr2, it then means that neutral X has 88 electrons.

The number of electrons in the neutral atom is the same as the number of protons or atomic number. An element can be identified by its atomic number. The element having atomic number 88 is radium.

The number of neutrons is obtained as;

Mass number - atomic number

230 - 88 = 142 neutrons

Consider the reaction of 2.5 grams of Li (s) reacting with 0.5 grams of N2 (g) to produce Li3N (s). A) How many total grams of Li3 N (s) would be produced? B) Which of the starting elements is the limiting reagent, and how many grams of the non-limiting reagent remain after the reaction has completed?

Answers

Answer:

A) The amount in grams of Li₃N produced is 1.243 g

B) N₂, is the limiting reagent

The mass of the non-limiting reagent, Li, remaining after the reaction is completed is 1.757 g

Explanation:

The given parameters are;

The mass of Li(s) = 2.5 grams

The mass of N₂ (g) = 0.5 grams

The chemical equation for the reaction can be presented as follows;

6 Li (s) + N₂ (g) → 2 Li₃N

Therefore, 6 moles of Li reacts with 1 mole of N₂  to produce 2 moles of Li₃N

The molar mass of Li = 6.941 g/mol

The molar mass of N₂ = 28.0134 g/mol

The number of moles of a reactant or product, n is given by the relation;

n = Mass of substance/(Molar mass of the substance)

For lithium, Li, n = 2.5/6.941 = 0.3602 moles

For Nitrogen gas, N₂, n = 0.5/28.0134  = 0.01785 moles

A) Given that 1 mole of  N₂ to produces 2 moles of Li₃N

0.01785  moles of  N₂ will produces 2×0.01785 = 0.0357 moles of Li₃N

The molar mass of Li₃N = 34.83 g/mol

The mass of Li₃N = 34.83 g/mol × 0.0357 moles = 1.243 g

B) 6  moles of Li reacts with 1 mole of N₂ to produce 2 moles of Li₃N

0.3602 moles will reacts with 1/6×0.3602 = 0.06003 mole of N₂

Therefore, N₂, is the limiting reagent and we have;

0.01785  moles of  N₂ will react with 6×0.01785 = 0.1071  moles of Li

The number of of moles of Li left = 0.3602 - 0.1071 =0.2531 moles

The mass of lithium left = 0.2531 moles × 6.941 g/mol = 1.757 g

The mass of lithium remaining after the reaction is completed = 1.757 g.

If an object's mass is 70 g, and its volume is 10cm cubed, what is its density?

Answers

The answer is 7,000

If an object's mass is 70 g, and its volume is 10cm cubed,  its density is 7 centimeter cube.

What is density?

The density of any solid substance is the unit of the area occupied by it in per centimeter of the cube of the volume in the given sample and calculated by dividing the mass and the volume of the compound unit will be centimeter cube.

The mass of the given object is 70 gram and the volume is given is 10 cm to find the density,

                       Density = mass of object / volume of object

substituting the value in the formula,

                 Density = 70 / 10

                 Density = 7 centimeter cube.

Therefore, the density of the given object will be 7 centimeter cube if  an object's mass is 70 g, and its volume is 10cm cubed.

Answers

Answer:

a) 1.392 x 10^6 g/cm^3

Explanation:

mass of the star m =  2.0 x 10^36 kg

radius of the star (assumed to be spherical) r = 7.0 x 10^5 km = 7.0 x 10^8 m

The density of substance ρ = mass/volume
