Algebra.Com's Answer #713420 by KMST(5328)![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! A chemist would not think that a compound should be measured in milliters. \n" ); document.write( "A chemist would know that if you mix 4.00 mL of a liquid and 7.00 mL of another, \n" ); document.write( "you do not get exactly 11.00 mL of liquid. \n" ); document.write( "A chemist would also know that if you try to react 4 grams of one compound and 7 grams of another compound, \n" ); document.write( "there is likely to be leftover unreacted compounds, and impurities resulting from unwanted reactions. \n" ); document.write( "Besides, it usually takes several reactions to make a drug, with pilurifications of the intermediate compounds formed along the way. \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "Assuming that 7 mL of compound A fully reacted with 4 mL of compound B, to yield 4+7=11 mL of compound C, \n" ); document.write( "the ratio of volume of compound C produced to volume of compound A used would be \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "Using 553 mL of compound A would result in the production of \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " |
