A 500 mL sample of drinking water contains 0.001 mg of mercury. How many ppb is this?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The value is   [tex]k = 2 \ ppb[/tex]

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The volume of the drinking water is  [tex]V = 500 \ mL = 500 *10^{-3} \ L = 500 *10^{-6} \ m^3[/tex]

   The mass of  mercury it contains  [tex]m_c = 0.001 \ mg = 0.001 *10^{-3} \ g = 0.001 *10^{-6}\ kg[/tex]

 

Generally the mass of water is mathematically represented as

       [tex]m = V * \rho[/tex]

Here [tex]\rho[/tex] is the  density of water with value  [tex]\rho = 1000 \ kg/m^3[/tex]

So

       [tex]m = 500 *10^{-6 }* 1000[/tex]

=>    [tex]m = 0.5 \ kg[/tex]

Generally  ppb mean part per billon ,  and  1 billon is  100,000,000

So the part per billon which this represents is mathematically represented as

        [tex]k = \frac{0.001 *10^{-6}}{ 0.5} * 100 000 000[/tex]

=>     [tex]k = 2 \ ppb[/tex]

Which statement best describes a primary occurrence in an uncontrolled fission reaction.

Answers

Incomplete question. Options;

A) Mass is created and energy is released.

B) Mass is created and energy is stored.

C) Mass is converted to energy, which is released.

D) Mass is converted to energy, which is stored.

Answer:

Mass is converted to energy, which is released

Explanation:

Basically, when uncontrolled nuclear fission (splitting) occurs, a radioactive atom (a mass) is split into two smaller nuclei leading to a continuous chain of fission reactions.

In other words, as the fission of the mass of the atom continues to occur, the mass is converted to energy, which is then released and more reactions occur.

How many grams are in 4 moles of Calcium?

Answers

Answer:

160.32 grams of Ca or 160 if rounded

Explanation:

Multiply moles of Ca by the conversion factor (molar mass of calcium) 40.08 g Ca/ 1 mol Ca, which then allows the cancelation of moles, leaving grams of Ca.

4 mol*40.08g/mol = 160.32 grams of Ca

please give thanks by clicking heart button :)

Answer:

[tex]\boxed {\boxed {\sf 160.32 \ g, \ 160 \ g, \ or \ 200 \ g }}[/tex]

Explanation:

To convert from grams to moles, we must use calcium's molar mass, which can be found on the Periodic Table of Elements.

Calcium (Ca) Molar Mass: 40.08 g/mol

Now, we can use the molar mass as a ratio or fraction.

[tex]\frac{40.08 \ g \ Ca}{1 \ mol \ Ca}[/tex]

This fraction can be multiplied by the number of moles, which is 4.

[tex]4 \ mol \ Ca * \frac{40.08 \ g \ Ca}{1 \ mol \ Ca}[/tex]

When we multiply, the moles of calcium will cancel each other out.

[tex]4* \frac{40.08 \ g \ Ca}{1}[/tex]

Since the fraction is over 1, we can just remove the denominator and write a simply multiplication equation.

[tex]4* 40.08 \ g \ Ca[/tex]

[tex]160.32 \ g \ Ca[/tex]

Depending on the teacher's instructions, the answer can be left as is or rounded.

If we round to the technically correct number of significant figures, it would be 1, because the original measurement of 4 moles has 1 sig fig. This would 200 grams, but that's a large amount to round.

We could also round to the nearest whole number. The 3 in the tenth place tells us to leave the whole number as it is. This would be 160 grams.

The answer could be 160.32 grams, 160 grams, or 200 grams, depending on rounding and significant figures.

When Gallium becomes an ion it loses 3 electrons to become:

A: -3

B: +3

C: It loses 3 electrons to become a neutral atom

D: It is already neutral

Answers

Answer:

B: +3

Explanation:

If Gallium loses 3 electrons, it will become an ion.

The ion will be positively charged because in this new ion, the number of electrons is lesser than the number of protons. The charge difference will impart a positive net charge on the ion.

In a neutral atom, the number of electrons and protons are the same. For positively charged ions, the number of protons is greater than the electrons

If Gallium the loss of 3 electrons offsets the charge balance in the chemical specie. Thus, the ion will have a net +3 charge.

The density of water at 4.00°C is 0.967 g/mL. How many molecules of water are present in a 499.8 mL bottle of water? Express your answer to the correct number of significant figures. Be sure to show all steps completed to arrive at the answer.

Answers

Answer:

161.69×10²³ molecules

Explanation:

Given data:

Volume of water = 499.8 mL

Density of water = 0.967 g/mL

Number of molecules of water = ?

Solution:

First of all we will calculate the mass of water.

Density = mass/volume

0.967 g/mL = mass/499.8 mL

Mass = 0.967 g/mL × 499.8 mL

Mass = 483.3 g

Number of moles of water:

Number of moles = mass/molar mass

Number of moles =  483.30 g / 18 g/mol

Number of moles = 26.85 mol

1 mole contain 6.022×10²³ molecules

26.85 mol ×6.022×10²³ molecules / 1mol

161.69×10²³ molecules

Answer:

density of water at 4.00c  is 0.967 g/mL. Volume of water=499.8mL

Mass of water=density x volume= 0.967 x 499.8=483.3066g

Number of moles of water molecules in given of water = givenmass/molarmass=483.3066/18=26.85

we know that 1 mole has 6.022 x 1023  molecules of water  

so  the number of water=6.022 x 1023  x 26.85=161.69 x 1023 =1.62 x 1025  molecules of water is its upto 3 significant figure.

Which of the following is NOT true about comparisons between analog and digital signals?
Question 3 options:

Digital signals are pulses of voltage that switch currents on an off in devices like computers.


Analog signals are used to convert sound waves into electronic signals.


Digital signals are more prone to distortion.


Analog signals are more prone to distortion.

Answers


Analog signals are used to convert sound waves into electronic signals.

Answer:

Explanation: Analog signal is continuous in nature as it is well defined for every specific time. More specifically, it is the one defined continuously for a range of values with time. These are represented as a sinusoidal waveform. The figure below represents an analog signal:

analog signal

As we can see here that the signal is continuous in nature as its every value is specified for each particular interval of time, thus, is referred as the continuous-time signal. For the purpose of recording the analog signals, the actual signal must be preserved as only in that case we can record the accurate analog signal.

However, whenever in any application there arises a need to change an analog signal into a digital one then through sampling this can be achieved. In the sampling technique, this signal is sampled at certain fixed time intervals and the sampled voltage is converted into digital values.

 

Definition of Digital Signal

A type of signal which is non-continuous in nature as it is defined only for a set of discrete times is known as a digital signal. More simply, we can say, it is specified at some particular time instants only. Thus, here the information is represented as a set of discrete values. The figure given below shows the signal representation in digital form:

digital signal

Here it is clear that the data is discretely positioned in time axis thus is shown in the form of bits i.e., 0 and 1. This means that here the signal performs the sudden transition between 0 and 1 where these two values correspond to the two voltage levels. For the purpose of recording the signals, in the digital one, only the samples of the actual signal are taken and not the whole signal.

Key Differences Between Analog and Digital Signal

Analog and digital signals are differentiated mainly on the basis of their way to carry the information. Analog signals represent the information as a continuous function of time. As against, digital signals are represented discretely at specific time intervals.

Analog signals deteriorate more easily than digital one as their susceptibility towards noise is higher.

The devices that operate on an analog signal need more power for transmission and reception than the devices that work on the digital signal.

The information represented by the analog signal is comparatively more accurate than the digital signal due to its continuous range of values.

Analog signals are transmitted at a slower rate than digital signals as the information holds more values thus is precise.

An analog signal is defined by the amplitude, phase, frequency, etc. While the digital signal is mainly associated with bit rate, bit intervals, etc.

The sinusoidal representation of the analog signal makes it difficult to understand or get decoded thus encryption is not required in analog signals. But as the digital signals are in the form of square waves, thus, it can be decoded easily hence need to be encrypted for secured communication.

On the basis of processing, it is said that the continuous nature of the signal offers easy processing of the analog signal. However, the discrete nature of the signal offers difficultly in the processing of the digital signal.

Conclusion

Thus, the above discussion concludes that due to the way of representing the signal, the two are differentiated. And because of this, the two types of signals possess different properties and are used in different applications. Like analog signals are used in radio wave transmission and reception whereas digital signals are used in the field of digital electronics.

On the graph, which dimension would be changed if the rate of reaction were to be altered by a catalyst?

Answers

Answer:

The alteration of the rate of the chemical reaction by the addition of a catalyst will change the dimension of L

Explanation:

The parts of the Energy profile of a reaction diagram the given letters represent are;

K = The energy possessed by the reactants

L = Activation energy required for the reaction to take place

M = Energy threshold required for the reaction to take place

N = The change in the enthalpy from the reactants to the products, which is also the energy released

O = The energy possessed by the products

The addition of a catalyst changes the route with which the reaction takes place such that the reaction rate is increased because the activation energy, L, is reduced.

Therefore, the dimension that will be changed if the rate of reaction were to be altered by a catalyst is L.
