A steel pipe is connected to a copper pipe in a galvanic corrosion couple where the electrolyte is seawater. The corrosion current density of the steel pipe is 3.2 mA/cm2. If the surface area of the steel pipe is 5 cm2, calculate the total amount of charge transferred per hour. Also, calculate the weight loss of the steel pipe per year due to galvanic corrosion, assuming the density of steel is 7.85 g/cm3.

A chemistry student needs to determine the percentage of calcium carbonate (CaCO3) present in a mixture of calcium carbonate and calcium phosphate. The student has the following information: A 1.00-gram sample of the mixture was dissolved and reacted with excess hydrochloric acid (HCl), producing 0.236 grams of carbon dioxide (CO2) gas. The balanced chemical equation for the reaction is: CaCO3 + 2HCl → CaCl2 + CO2 + H2O. The student also knows that the molecular weight of CaCO3 is 100.09 g/mol and that of Ca3(PO4)2 is 310.18 g/mol. What is the percentage of calcium carbonate in the mixture?

A chemistry student wants to determine the surface area of a metal oxide sample using the Langmuir adsorption isotherm. The student collects adsorption data at different pressures and determines the amount of gas adsorbed on the surface. The Langmuir isotherm equation used is y = Kx / (1 + Kx), where y is the fractional surface coverage, x is the pressure of the gas, and K is a constant related to the adsorption energy. The student obtains the following data:Pressure (atm) | Fractional surface coverage-------------|---------------------------
