Flag question: Question 6
A U – tube with some mercury at the bottom is set up vertically and twelve centimeter of water is added into one arm of the tube. Methylated spirits is then added carefully into the other arm of the U – tube until the mercury levels are the same in both arms. It is observed that the level methylated spirit is higher. What is the density of methylated spirit if the methylated spirit column is fifteen centimeter high?Required to answer. Single choice.
Here is a simple example. The inhabitants of a small island begin exporting beautiful cloth made from a rare plant that grows only on their island. Seeing how popular the small quantity that they export
has been, they steadily raise their prices. A clothing maker from New York, thinking that he can save money by "cutting out the middleman," decides to travel to the small island and buy the cloth himself.
Ignorant of the local custom of offering strangers outrageous prices and then negotiating down, the clothing maker accepts (much to everyone's surpise) the initial price of 400 tepizes/m². The price of
this cloth in New York is 120 dollars/yard².
Part A
If the clothing maker bought 500 m² of this fabric, how much money did he lose? Use 1 tepiz = 0.625 dollar and 0.9144 m = 1 yard.
Express your answer in dollars using two significant figures.

- (a) A commercial 737 jet transporting 143 passengersand 5 crew members from Kansas City (MCI) to Baltimore (BWI) burned 11,800 lb (about 1700 gallons)of Jet A fuel en route. Jet A fuel is kerosine based,consisting primarily of CnH2n+2 hydrocarbons, withn: 5 6 to 16, so the carbonhydrogen ratio is close to12. During this flight, how much CO2 was releasedinto the atmosphere? Assume the combustion of thefuel was complete, so all the fuel was burned to formCO2 and H2O.
