- M 4arrow_forwardOn December 1, 1783, Jacque Charles became the first human to pilot a non-tethered hydrogen balloon. He flew the balloon for fifteen miles and stayed in the air for a total flight time of 45 minutes. The balloon was made of silk coated with a thin layer of natural rubber and had a diameter of 27 feet. He generated the hydrogen gas needed to lift the balloon by mixing a large amount of iron with aqueous sulfuric acid. If he used 1 x 103 lbs. of iron and excess sulfuric acid, how many liters of hydrogen gas were made?

- A chemist prepares a solution of barium chlorate BaClO32 by measuring out 63.μmol of barium chlorate into a 250.mL volumetric flask and filling the flask to the mark with water. Calculate the concentration in mol/L of the chemist's barium chlorate solution. Be sure your answer has the correct number of significant digits.arrow_forwardA chemistry student needs 70.0mL of pentane for an experiment. By consulting the CRC Handbook of Chemistry and Physics, the student discovers that the density of pentane is ·0.626gcm−3 . Calculate the mass of pentane the student should weigh out.arrow_forwardA 區 88%1 G € T 9 Q1. An organic chemist isolates a colourless liquid from a petroleum sample. She places the liquid in a flask and puts the flask in a boiling water bath, which vaporizes the liquid and fills the flask with gas. She closes the flask, reweighs it, and obtains the following data: Volume of flask (V) = 213 mL Mass of flask+gas = 78.416 g T=100°C P=754 torr (760 torr in 1 atmosphere) Mass of empty flask = 77.834 g Calculate the molar mass of the liquid, carefully converting to appropriate units, where necessary.

- The liquid 1,2-dibromobenzene has a density of 1.98 g/mL at 20 °C. If a 2.61 kilogram sample of this compound is needed, how many liters of the liquid at 20 °C must be provided?arrow_forwardIn our chemistry laboratory class, the formula for surface tension given is y=mg/2(pi) x r x f where y=surface tension, m= mass of the drop, g= gravitational acceleration, pi is 3.1415, r= outer radius of burette, f=correction factor. Now I searched the internet and it says that the unit for surface tension is kg x m/s^2. The problem is I have grams for the mass of the drop and that the outer radius of the burette is in centimeter while the gravitational acceleration is in meter. What will happen is like this: (1 g x 9.8 m/s^2) / 2 (3.1415) x 0.15 cm x 0.74643 (correction factor no unit) As you can see, if I don't cancel m and cm, the unit will be g x cm x m x s^2. However if change the radius of the burette into meter, it will cancel, the unit will be g x s^2 (missing meter). What can I do to get kg x m/s^2 as the unit for final answer?arrow_forwardA chemist prepares a solution of silver perchlorate (AgC104) by measuring out 1.2 kg of silver perchlorate into a 450. mL volumetric flask and filling the flask to the mark with water.

- A chemist prepares a solution of silver(I) nitrate (AgNO3) by measuring out 1.9 × 10 μmol of silver(I) nitrate into a 500. mL volumetric flask and filling the flask to the mark with water. Calculate the concentration in mmol/L of the chemist's silver(I) nitrate solution. Be sure your answer has the correct number of significant digits. mmol L X 3arrow_forwardDennis obtained a clean, dry stoppered flask. He determined the mass of the flask and stopper to be 32.634 g.He then filled the flask with water and determined the mass of the full stoppered flask to be 59.479 g. Based on the temperature of the water, Dennis found the density of water in the Handbook of Chemistry and Physics to be 0.998730 g/mL. Calculate the volume of the flask.arrow_forwardA manufacturer of paint claims that a gallon (3.78 L) of latex paint can cover 365 ft2 of the surface of a wall in a single coating. The paint manufacturer also claims that one single coating of an entire wall will be 3.40 mm thick. Is this a case of false advertising? Yes or No? Elaborate your answer by providing a calculation (handwritten, upload a pdf). You may use the following conversions: 12 in = 1 ft, 2.54 cm = 1 inarrow_forward
