Propose two steps that could be taken to reduce the vulnerability of the US to hurricanes. Explain why you think those would be effective in saving lives and property.
This is not just about planning and design of buildings and towns/cities, even though those are very important. You could write about the role of research in science and technology and their contributions to emergency preparedness.
You must write at least one paragraph (roughly 150 words).
Answer:
Sensors and evacuation planning.
Explanation:
Sensors that provides information about hurricane and evacuation planning are the two steps that can reduce the vulnerability of the United States to hurricanes. Sensors provides information about hurricane so we can prepare ourselves about it and the evacuation plan helps in order to quick displacement of people from the hurricane area so these two steps can reduce the vulnerability of the US to hurricanes.
A penny has a thickness of approximately 1.0 mm. If you stacked Avogadro's number of pennies one on top of the other on Earth's surface, how far would the stack extend (in kilometers). For comparison, the sun is about 150 million km from Earth and the nearest star (Proxima Centauri) is about 40 trillion km from Earth].
Answer:
6.02 × 10²⁷ km
Explanation:
Step 1: Calculate the height of the stack of pennies
A penny has a thickness of approximately 1.0 mm. If you stacked Avogadro's number of pennies (6.02 × 10²³ pennies) one on top of the other on Earth's surface, the height of the stack of pennies would be:
6.02 × 10²³ pennie × 1.0 mm/1 pennie = 6.02 × 10²³ mm
Step 2: Convert 6.02 × 10²³ mm to kilometers
We will use the following conversion factors.
1 km = 10³ m1 m = 10³ mm6.02 × 10²³ mm × 1 m/10³ mm × 1 km/10³ m = 6.02 × 10²⁷ km

One of the most common causes of inaccurate melting point ranges is rapid heating of the compound. Under these circumstances, how will the observed MP range compare to the true MP range
Answer:
INCREASE in the difference between the melting point measured and the true melting temperature.
Explanation:
Melting point of a compound is defined as the temperature at which the soils compound changes into liquid at the atmospheric pressure. There are different circumstances that can lead to inaccurate melting point. These include:
--> presence of impurities in the compound,
--> Molecular composition,
--> Force of attraction, and
--> Rapid heating of the compound.
Under the circumstances of rapid heating of the compound, there would be an increase in the melting point range when compared with the true melting point range of the compound.
The higher the heating rate, the more rapid the rise in oven temperature, increasing the difference between the melting point measured and the true melting temperature.

Classify each compound as ionic or molecular.
a. ZnCl2
b. MgS
c. CH4
Answer:
ZnCl2=ionic
MgS=ionic
CH4=molecular
Explanation:
ZnCl₂=ionic, MgS=ionic and CH₄=molecular compounds.
Thus, Ions with opposing charges that are kept together by electrostatic forces make up ionic compounds. Typically, a metal and a nonmetal combine to make them.
Atoms share electrons through covalent bonds to form molecular compounds.
When atoms of various elements share electrons through covalent bonds, molecules are created, also known as covalent compounds. These compounds consist of molecules made up of joined atoms, and the shared electrons strengthen the bonds between the atoms.
Thus, ZnCl₂=ionic, MgS=ionic and CH₄=molecular compounds.

What happens when a solid becomes a liquid?
Answer:it dissolves and evaporates
Explanation:
The oxygen atom of a ketone (such as cyclohexanone) contains 2 lone pairs of electrons. These pairs of electrons most likely reside in what type of orbital
Answer: The given pairs of electrons most likely reside in [tex]sp^{2}[/tex] type of orbital.
Explanation:
As it is given that two lone pair of electrons are present on the oxygen atom of ketone (such as cyclohexanone).
Also, there will be one bond pair between carbon and oxygen atom.
Hence, total electrons present in the domain are as follows.
2 lone pairs + 1 bon pair of electron = 3 electron domains
This means that there will be [tex]sp^{2}[/tex] type of orbital present.
Thus, we can conclude that given pairs of electrons most likely reside in [tex]sp^{2}[/tex] type of orbital.

a. The light-initiated reaction of cyclohexane with chlorine to give chlorocyclohexane
b. The reaction between cyclobutane and bromine to give bromocyclobutane
Answer:
See explanation and image attached.
Explanation:
A free radical reaction is a reaction that involves species having an odd number of electrons.
The initiation step involves the formation of the odd electron species. The propagation steps produce more odd electron species while the termination steps eliminate the odd electron species.
The halogenation of alkanes occurs by free radical mechanism. The initiation, propagation and termination steps for the free radical chlorination of cyclohexane and cyclobutane is shown in the image attached.

To determine the enthalpy and entropy of dissolving a compound, you need to measure the Ksp at multiple _______. Then, plot ln(Ksp) vs. ______. The slope of the plotted line relates to the _______ of dissolving and the intercept of the plotted line relates to the ______ of dissolving.
Answer:
To determine the enthalpy and entropy of dissolving a compound, you need to measure the Ksp at multiple temperatures. Then, plot ln(Ksp) vs. 1/T. The slope of the plotted line relates to the enthalpy (ΔH) of dissolving and the intercept of the plotted line relates to the entropy (ΔS) of dissolving.
Explanation:
Hello there!
In this case, according to the given information, it turns out possible for us use the thermodynamic definition of the Gibbs free energy and its relationship with Ksp as follows:
[tex]\Delta G=-RTln(Ksp)\\\\\Delta G=\Delta H-T\Delta S[/tex]
Thus, by combining them, we obtain:
[tex]-RTln(Ksp)=\Delta H-T\Delta S\\\\ln(Ksp)=-\frac{\Delta H}{RT} +\frac{T\Delta S}{RT} \\\\ln(Ksp)=-\frac{\Delta H}{RT} +\frac{\Delta S}{R}[/tex]
Which is related to the general line equation:
[tex]y=mx+b[/tex]
Whereas:
[tex]y=ln(Ksp)\\\\m=-\frac{\Delta H}{R} \\\\x=\frac{1}{T} \\\\b=\frac{\Delta S}{R}[/tex]
It means that we answer to the blanks as follows:

3. 3. A 90.-mL sample of juice was titrated with the I2(aq) solution described above using a sb buret. The initial reading of the sb buret was 58.3 mL. When the endpoint was reached, the reading on the sb buret was 26.9 mL. How many mg of Vitamin C were in the juice sample
Answer:
2765mg of Vitamin C assuming the concentration of I2 = 0.500M
Explanation:
Iodine, I2, reacts with vitamin C in a ratio of 1:1 (The moles of I2 added = Moles of Vitamin C in the sample). To solve this question we must find the difference in volume from the initial reading to the endpoint reading. Now, ASSUMING the molar concentration of the I2(aq) solution is 0.500M we can find the moles of I2 = Moles of Vitamin C. With its molar mass -176.12g/mol- we can find its mass:
Moles I2:
Volume = 58.3mL - 26.9mL = 31.4mL = 0.0314L * (0.500mol / L) = 0.0157 moles I2 = Moles Vitamin C
Mass Vitamin C:
0.0157 moles * (176.12g/mol) = 2.765g of Vitamin C * (1000mg/1g) =
2765mg of Vitamin C assuming the concentration of I2 = 0.500M

Arrange the following in order of increasing Rf with TLC:
a. acetic acid
b. acetaldehyde
c. 2-octanone
d. decane
e. 1-butanol
Answer:
Decane> 2-octanone> acetaldehyde> acetic acid> 1-butanol
Explanation:
One of the most important factors that affect the retention factor (Rf) in chromatography is the polarity of the mobile phase.
We have to recall that effective separation in chromatography depends on the movement of the mobile phase over a stationary phase.
The more polar the mobile phase, the more it interacts with the solute and the more the distance it travels from the baseline. Thus high solvent polarity leads to higher Rf value.
Therefore, the order of increasing Rf values for the solvents in the question is; Decane> 2-octanone> acetaldehyde> acetic acid> 1-butanol
