Chapter 3: Problem 73

A manufacturer of bicycles has 4815 wheels, 2305 frames, and 2255 handlebars. (a) How many bicycles can be manufactured using these parts? (b) How many parts of each kind are left over? (c) Which part limits the production of bicycles?

Short Answer

Expert verified
(a) The manufacturer can make 2255 bicycles. (b) There are 305 wheels, 50 frames, and 0 handlebars left over. (c) Handlebars limit the production of bicycles.

Step by step solution

01

Calculate the number of bicycles that can be manufactured

To find the number of bicycles that can be manufactured, we will find the minimum value of the following: Bicycles using wheels: \( \dfrac{4815}{2} = 2407.5 \) (but we need a whole number) Bicycles using frames: \( \dfrac{2305}{1} = 2305 \) Bicycles using handlebars: \( \dfrac{2255}{1} = 2255 \) By comparing the three values, we can see the minimum value is 2255. So, the manufacturer can make 2255 bicycles.
02

Find the leftover parts

To find the leftover parts, we will subtract the used parts from the available parts. Leftover wheels: Wheels 鈥� (Bicycles * 2) = 4815 鈥� (2255 * 2) = 4815 鈥� 4510 = 305 wheels left over Leftover frames: Frames 鈥� Bicycles = 2305 鈥� 2255 = 50 frames left over Leftover handlebars: Handlebars 鈥� Bicycles = 2255 鈥� 2255 = 0 handlebars left over
03

Identify the limiting part

Since the minimum value for the number of bicycles was found using the handlebars, the handlebars are the part that limits the production of bicycles. In this case, all available handlebars would be utilized in the manufacture of 2255 bicycles with no handlebars left over. So the answers are: (a) 2255 bicycles can be manufactured. (b) 305 wheels, 50 frames, and 0 handlebars are left over. (c) Handlebars limit the production of bicycles.

Calculate the following quantities: (a) mass, in grams, of \(0.105 \mathrm{~mol}\) sucrose \(\left(\mathrm{C}_{12} \mathrm{H}_{22} \mathrm{O}_{11}\right)\) (b) moles of \(\mathrm{Zn}\left(\mathrm{NO}_{3}\right)_{2}\) in \(143.50 \mathrm{~g}\) of this substance (c) number of molecules in \(1.0 \times 10^{-6} \mathrm{~mol} \mathrm{} \mathrm{CH}_{3} \mathrm{CH}_{2} \mathrm{OH}\) (d) number of \(\mathrm{N}\) atoms in \(0.410 \mathrm{~mol} \mathrm{} \mathrm{NH}_{3}\)

Hydrogen cyanide, HCN, is a poisonous gas. The lethal dose is approximately \(300 \mathrm{mg} \mathrm{HCN}\) per kilogram of air when inhaled. (a) Calculate the amount of \(\mathrm{HCN}\) that gives the lethal dose in a small laboratory room measuring \(12 \times 15 \times 8.0 \mathrm{ft}\). The density of air at \(26^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\) is \(0.00118 \mathrm{~g} / \mathrm{cm}^{3}\). (b) If the \(\mathrm{HCN}\) is formed by reaction of \(\mathrm{NaCN}\) with an acid such as \(\mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{SO}_{4}\), what mass of \(\mathrm{NaCN}\) gives the lethal dose in the room? $$ 2 \mathrm{NaCN}(s)+\mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{SO}_{4}(a q) \longrightarrow \mathrm{Na}_{2} \mathrm{SO}_{4}(a q)+2 \mathrm{HCN}(g) $$ (c) HCN forms when synthetic fibers containing Orlon or Acrilan" burn. Acrilan" has an empirical formula of \(\mathrm{CH}_{2} \mathrm{CHCN}\), so \(\mathrm{HCN}\) is \(50.9 \%\) of the formula by mass. A rug measures \(12 \times 15 \mathrm{ft}\) and contains \(30 \mathrm{oz}\) of Acrilan \({ }^{\circ}\) fibers per square yard of carpet. If the rug burns, will a lethal dose of HCN be generated in the room? Assume that the yield of HCN from the fibers is \(20 \%\) and that the carpet is \(50 \%\) consumed.

Balance the following equations: (a) \(\mathrm{CO}(g)+\mathrm{O}_{2}(g) \longrightarrow \mathrm{CO}_{2}(g)\) (b) \(\mathrm{N}_{2} \mathrm{O}_{5}(g)+\mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O}(l) \longrightarrow \mathrm{HNO}_{3}(a q)\) (c) \(\mathrm{CH}_{4}(g)+\mathrm{Cl}_{2}(g) \longrightarrow \mathrm{CCl}_{4}(l)+\operatorname{HCl}(g)\) (d) \(\mathrm{Zn}(\mathrm{OH})_{2}(s)+\mathrm{HNO}_{3}(a q) \longrightarrow \mathrm{Zn}\left(\mathrm{NO}_{3}\right)_{2}(a q)+\mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O}(l)\)

Detonation of nitroglycerin proceeds as follows: (a) If a sample containing \(2.00 \mathrm{~mL}\) of nitroglycerin (density \(=1.592 \mathrm{~g} / \mathrm{mL}\) ) is detonated, how many total moles of gas are produced? (b) If each mole of gas occupies \(55 \mathrm{~L}\) under the conditions of the explosion, how many liters of gas are produced? (c) How many grams of \(\mathrm{N}_{2}\) are produced in the detonation?

Serotonin is a compound that conducts nerve impulses in the brain. It contains \(68.2\) mass percent \(C, 6.86\) mass percent \(H\), \(15.9\) mass percent \(\mathrm{N}\), and \(9.08\) mass percent \(\mathrm{O}\). Its molar mass is \(176 \mathrm{~g} / \mathrm{mol}\). Determine its molecular formula.
