Eroded sediments from further upstream clogged Jakarta’s rivers and canals, causing them to overflow. Similar erosion-related floods have occurred in many other countries, such as Colombia, India, the Philippines and Democratic Republic of the Congo.
Percent composition by mass is calculated (mass of element within compound)/(mass of compound)*100. The lower the total molar mass of the compound, the greater the percent composition of sulfur. In this case, MgS would be that compound, since Mg has the lowest molar mass of the four elements bonded to S.
Spent fuel that can no longer be used to create energy is waste.
To determine the volume of both concentration of vinegar, we need to set up two equations since we have two unknowns.
For the first equation, we do a mass balance:
mass of 100% vinegar + mass of 13% vinegar = mass of 42% vinegar
Assuming they have the same densities, then we can write this equation in terms of volume.
V(100%) + V(13%) = V(42%)
we let x = V(100%)
y = V(13%)
x + y = 150
For the second equation, we do a component balance:
1.00x + .13y = 150(.42)
x + .13y = 63
The two equations are
x + y = 150
x + .13y = 63
Solving for x and y,
x = 50
y = 100
Therefore, you need to mix 50 mL of the 100% vinegar and 100 mL of the 13% vinegar.
Rutherford used gold for his scattering experiment because gold is the most malleable metal and he wanted the thinnest layer as possible. The goldsheet used was around 1000 atoms thick. Therefore, Rutherford selected a Gold foil in his alpha scatttering experiment.
