Answer:

An article discussing mineral resources written by the United States Geological Survey.

A study describing clinical trials of a new medication in the Journal of Medicinal Chemistry.

Explanation:

A reliable source can be define as the source of information which can be used for the purpose of research. The reliable source should be thorough, well reasoned and must be supported by the evidences. It can be based on experimental trials and outcomes of the previous research. It can be proved by the authentic organization and institution.

The following are the examples of reliable sources:

An article discussing mineral resources written by the United States Geological Survey.: This is the authentic reliable source as the information is provided by recognized survey organization.

A study describing clinical trials of a new medication in the Journal of Medicinal Chemistry.: This is reliable source because the information is provided on the basis of the clinical trials the results of which will be reliable as in journals only the reliable information is presented.

Identify the oxidizing and reducing agent in the following reaction, and determine which element is oxidized and which is reduce

erma4kov [3.2K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Fe⁺²(aq) + ClO₂(aq) → Fe⁺³(aq) + ClO₂⁻(aq)

Here oxidation number of Fe is increased from +2 to +3 , so Fe is oxidised .

The oxidation number of Cl is reduced from + 4 to +3 so Cl is reduced .

So ClO₂(aq) is oxidising agent and Fe⁺²(aq) is reducing agent .

A civil engineering student is considering buying an electric car. However, the conscious student wants to make sure her carbon

svetlana [45]

Answer:

$\text{An gasoline-powered vehicle has }\\\boxed{\text{five times the carbon footprint}}\text{ of an electric vehicle.}$

Explanation:

1. Miles travelled in an average month

$\text{Miles} = \text{1 mo} \times \dfrac{\text{52 wk}}{\text{12 mo}} \times \dfrac{\text{5 da}}{\text{1 wk}} \times \dfrac{\text{16 mi}}{\text{1 da}} = \text{347 mi}$

2. Using a gasoline powered vehicle

(a) Moles of heptane used

$n = \text{347 mi} \times \dfrac{\text{1 gal}}{\text{36.5 mi}}\times \dfrac{\text{3.785 L}}{\text{1 gal}} \times \dfrac{\text{679.5 g}}{\text{1L}} \times \dfrac{ \text{1 mol}}{\text{100.20 g}}= \text{244 mol}$

(b) Equation for combustion

C₇H₁₆ + O₂ ⟶ 7CO₂ + 8H₂O

(c) Moles of CO₂ formed

$n = \text{244 mol heptane} \times \dfrac{\text{7 mol CO$_{2}$}}{\text{1 mol heptane}} = \text{1710 mol CO$_{2}$}$

(d) Volume of CO₂ formed

At 20 °C and 1 atm, the molar volume of a gas is 24.0 L.

$V = \text{1710 mol } \times \dfrac{\text{24.0 L}}{\text{1 mol}} \times \dfrac{\text{1 gal}}{\text{3.785 L}} = \textbf{10 800 gal}$

3. Using an electric vehicle

(a) Theoretical energy used

$\text{Theor. Energy} = \text{347 mi} \times \dfrac{\text{1 kWh}}{\text{5.2 mi}} = \text{66.7 kWh theor.}$

(b) Actual energy used

The power station is only 85 % efficient.

$\text{Actual energy used} = \text{66.7 kWh theor.} \times \dfrac{\text{100 kWh actual}}{\text{ 85 kWh theor.}}\times \dfrac{\text{3600 kJ}}{\text{1 kWh}}\\\\ = 2.82\times 10^{5} \text{ kJ}\$

(c) Combustion of CH₄

CH₄ + 2O₂ ⟶ CO₂ +2 H₂O

(d) Equivalent volume of CO₂

The heat of combustion of methane is -802.3 kJ·mol⁻¹

$V= 2.82\times 10^{5}\text{ kJ} \times \dfrac{\text{1 mol methane}}{\text{802.3 kJ}} \times \dfrac{\text{1 mol CO$_{2}$} }{\text{1 mol methane}} \times \dfrac{ \text{24.0 L}}{ \text{1 mol CO$_{2}$}}\\\\ \times \dfrac{\text{1 gal}}{\text{3.875 L}} = \textbf{2180 gal}$

4. Comparison

$\dfrac{V_{\text{gasoline}}}{V_{\text{electric}}} = \dfrac{10800}{2180} = 5.0\\\\ \text{An gasoline-powered vehicle has }\\ \boxed{\textbf{ five times the carbon footprint}}\text{ of an electric vehicle.}$

Which object can electrically polarized

kobusy [5.1K]

Answer:Static electricity works because objects which are otherwise "neutral" (in other words, objects with no net charge) can be polarized. An electric field, like one caused by a nearby charged object, can cause the charges inside of a neutral object — the protons and electrons — to move around a tiny bit.
