What is the LD50 of a substance?

Answers

Answer 1

In toxicology, the median lethal dose, LD₅₀, LC₅₀ or LCt₅₀ is a measure of the lethal dose of a toxin, radiation, or pathogen. The value of LD₅₀ for a substance is the dose required to kill half the members of a tested population after a specified test duration.

Use the chart to determine which metal the students were given.

Answers

Answer:

mass(m)=26.4g

volume (v)=3.0cm²

we have

density =m/v=26.4/3=8.8g/cm³

Natalia dipped two feathers in oil. Then she dipped one feather in cold water and the other feather in hot water. She swirled both feathers around for 20 seconds, then removed them. Her results are in the table. Cold Water Hot Water Before Oil After Oil After Water Before Oil After Oil After Water Mass 1.2 g 4.5 g 4.2 g 1.2 g 4.4 g 3.5 g She also took a picture of each feather after swirling it in water. two feathers, each with oil and beads of water Was either the cold water or the hot water able to remove the oil? Explain your reasoning.

Answers

Answer:

The hot water was better for removing the oil.

Explanation:

You can see that because the mass went down more with the hot water. So, that means that more oil was taken out of the feather with hot water.

Answer:

The mass changed from 1.1grams to 4.5 grams. The appearance is another thing that changed when it got dipped in oil. The feather look like it lost some feathers or the feathers became transparent. The feather just looks soggy and heavier overall.  I believe that if Natalia dips the feather covered in oil in cold water, the feather will remain the same. If she were to dip it in hot water, the feather will get rid of the oil mostly. Think about it, in the ocean the water is cold right? So when oil spills in the ocean it will stay there. Hot water is the best to remove the oil from the feather.

What is natural gas and how does it work

Answers

Answer:

Natural Gas is a fossil energy source that formed deep beneath the Earth's surface. It is used in power plants to generate electricity by burning natural gas as their fuel.

Explanation: I hope this helped :)

Answer:

A molecule of natural gas is made up of carbon and hydrogen. When the hydrogen is segregated from the carbon and filled into a fuel cell, it fuses with oxygen to produce water, electricity, and heat. The carbon is released as carbon dioxide in smaller quantities than from gas turbines.

Answers

Answer:

94.2 g/mol

Explanation:

Ideal Gases Law can useful to solve this

P . V = n . R . T

We need to make some conversions

740 Torr . 1 atm/ 760 Torr = 0.974 atm

100°C + 273 = 373K

Let's replace the values

0.974 atm . 1 L = n . 0.082 L.atm/ mol.K . 373K

n will determine the number of moles

(0.974 atm . 1 L) / (0.082 L.atm/ mol.K . 373K)

n = 0.032 moles

This amount is the weigh for 3 g of gas. How many grams does 1 mol weighs?

Molecular weight → g/mol → 3 g/0.032 moles = 94.2 g/mol

HELP I'M DESPERATE! NO LINK!

Answers

Answer:

3.60

Explanation:

To calculate the pH of any solution, use the formula;

pH= -log[ concentration ] and for this case take pH= -log[H3O+]

= -log[2.5x10^-4]

therefore pH= 3.60

The idea of pH mainly applies in the determination of the nature of various solutions to the used in the chemical analysis. The correct pH must be determined in order to get accurate results. Ionic equillibria mostly involves the calculations involving pH which is normally obtained after determination of equilibrium concentrations.

Answers

Answer:

Por formación de burbujas.

Explicación:

La presencia de burbujas en la superficie de la bebida ayuda a determinar si la bebida tiene gas carbonatado o dióxido de carbono. El gas de dióxido de carbono no se puede mezclar con agua ni disolver en agua normalmente. Se puede agregar mediante alta presión al agua para que cuando se coloquen en condiciones normales, el dióxido de carbono se libere en forma de burbujas. No, el gas hidrógeno y el gas hidrógeno no podrían formar agua carbonatada porque ambos son átomos diferentes. El agua carbonatada tiene gas dióxido de carbono, no gas hidrógeno.

what is the molarity of a solution prepared dissolving 317 g of CaCl2 into enough water to make 2.50 L of solution?

Answers

Answer:

1.14 M

Explanation:

Step 1: Calculate the moles corresponding to 317 g of calcium chloride (solute)

The molar mass of calcium chloride is 110.98 g/mol.

317 g CaCl₂ × 1 mol CaCl₂/110.98 g CaCl₂ = 2.86 mol CaCl₂

Step 2: Calculate the molarity of the solution

Molarity is equal to the moles of solute divided by the liters of solution.

M = moles of solute / liters of solution

M = 2.86 mol / 2.50 L = 1.14 mol/L = 1.14 M

When 250 ml of water is added to 35 ml of 0.2 M HCl

Answers

Assuming that you’re looking for the concentration of water in the solution, then it would be 0.028 M.

You would have to use the formula:
c1v1 = c2v2, where c =concentration and
v = volume

C1 = ?
V1 = 250 mL
C2 = 0.2 M
V2 = 35 mL

C1 x 250 mL = 0.2 M x 35 mL

C1 = (0.2 M x 35 mL) / 250 mL

C1 = 0.028 M of water added to 35mL of 0.2M HCl

Therefore, there is 0.028 M of water added to 35mL of 0.2M HCl
0.028 is going to be your answer

How much Pb(NO3)2 would need to be added to 100 mL of water to make a saturated solution at 40°C.

Answers

Answer:

70g of Pb(NO3)2 would need to be added

Explanation:

As you can see in the solubility graph of lead nitrate, Pb(NO₃)₂, the solubility of this salt (That is, the maximum amount of the salt that can be dissolved in 100g of the solvent producing a homogeneous solution) is 70g in 100g of water = 70g of the salt in 100mL of water.

A saturated solution is also defined as solubility: The maximum amount of a solute that can be dissolved in a solvent.

That means:

70g of Pb(NO3)2 would need to be added

You are performing a titration with 0.80 M sodium hydroxide as a standard. Estimate how much would be needed to change 125 mL of a 2.0 M solution of nitric acid to a faint pink endpoint.

Answers

Answer:

312.5 mL

Explanation:

We'll begin by writing the balanced equation for the reaction. This is illustrated below:

HNO₃ + NaOH —> NaNO₃ + H₂O

From the balanced equation above,

The mole ratio of acid, HNO₃ (nₐ) = 1

The mole ratio of base, NaOH (n₆) = 1

Finally, we shall determine the volume of the base, NaOH needed for the reaction. This can be obtained as follow:

Molarity of base, NaOH (M₆) = 0.08 M

Volume of acid, HNO₃ (Vₐ) = 125 mL

Molarity of acid, HNO₃ (Mₐ) = 2 M

Volume of base, NaOH (V₆) =?

MₐVₐ / M₆V₆ = nₐ/n₆

2 × 125 / 0.80 × V₆ = 1/1

250 / 0.80 × V₆ = 1

Cross multiply

0.80 × V₆ = 250

Divide both side by 0.8

V₆ = 250 / 0.8

V₆ = 312.5 mL

Thus, the volume of the base, NaOH needed for the reaction is 312.5 mL

Creativity is a phenomenon whereby something somehow new and somehow valuable is formed. The created item may be intangible (such as an idea, a scientific theory, a musical composition, or a joke) or a physical object (such as an invention, a printed literary work, or a painting).

Scholarly interest in creativity is found in a number of disciplines, primarily psychology, business studies, and cognitive science, but also education, the humanities, technology, engineering, philosophy (particularly philosophy of science), theology, sociology, linguistics, the arts, economics, and mathematics, covering the relations between creativity and general intelligence, personality type, mental and neural processes, mental health, or artificial intelligence; the potential for fostering creativity through education and training; the fostering of creativity for national economic benefit, and the application of creative resources to improve the effectiveness of teaching and learning.

A picture of a lightbulb is associated with someone having an idea, an example of creativity.
