Question
Earth’s surface area is 5.10x10^8km², and its crust has amean thickness of 35 km and mean density of 2.8 g/cm3. Thetwo most abundant elements in the crust are oxygen (4.55x10^5g/metric ton, t) and silicon (2.72x10^5g/t), and the two rarest non-radioactive elements are ruthenium and rhodium, each with anabundance of 1104g/t. What is the total mass of each of theseelements in Earth’s crust (1 t =1000 kg)?

The Ka for trifluoroacetic acid is 104 times greater than acetic acid. Use the models to account for the differences in magnitude for the Ka constant. The yellow atoms are fluorine, the red atoms are oxygen, the black atoms are carbon, and the white atoms are hydrogen.

Assume the diameter of the Argon atom is 3.4 Å (1.000 Å = 1.000x10-10 m). Assume the atoms touch each other so that the closest distance between atomic centers (nuclei) is 3.4 Å and the atoms fill the box with MANY layers of Argon atoms.Note: a cubical box needs only one measurement to be defined because each edge of a cube is exactly the same length, l,so that the volume of the box, V = l3.arrow_forward

The bottle was labelled information was given, but inside the bottle were some white crystals. The student took the bottle to a chemistry laboratory, where she analyzed the crystals with the help of the laboratory staff. C₁2H₁6O reacted with Br₂ in CCl4 adding one mole of Br, and forming C₁₂H₁OB2₂. When a sample of C₁₂H₂O was reacted with O3 followed by Zn/H₂O, two different samples, J and K, were obtained. Compound J had a molecular formula of C.HgO₂, and its NMR is shown below. Compound K had a molecular formula of C₂H₂O, and it could be oxidized to compound L, with a molecular formula of C₂H₂O₂. The IR spectrum of L showed a very wide, strong band centred around 3000 cm*¹. The NMR spectrum of L showed only two different absorptions: a doublet (6H) at 0.9 ppm and a septet (1H) at 3.6 ppm. There was also a singlet (1H) off the scale at 11.8 ppm. students, deduce possible…arrow_forwardwhat is the unit, including its prefix, for 10^-6 of the derived unit for energy?arrow_forward
