Let a, b, and c be the coefficients in the balanced reaction:

a Fe + b Cl₂   →   c FeCl₃

Count the atoms that show up among the reactants and products. They should be equal on both sides:

Fe : a = c

Cl : 2b = 3c

Let c = 2. Then a = 2 and 2b = 6, so b = 3.

Then the balanced reaction is

2 Fe + 3 Cl₂   →   2 FeCl₃

Find the residual values, and use the graphing calculator tool to make a residual plot.
finlep [7]

Answer:

  • No, the points are evenly distributed about the x-axis.

Explanation:

<u>1. Write the table with the data:</u>

  x      given     predicted       residual

  1       - 3.5         - 1.1

  2      - 2.9           2

  3       - 1.1            5.1

  4        2.2           8.2

  5        3.4           1.3

<u>2. Complete the column of residuals</u>

The residual is the observed (given) value - the predicted value.

  • residual = given - predicted.

Thus, the complete table, with the residual values are:

  x      given     predicted       residual

  1       - 3.5         - 1.1                 - 2.4

  2      - 2.9           2                  - 4.9

  3       - 1.1            5.1                - 6.2

  4        2.2           8.2               - 6.0

  5        3.4           1.3                   2.1

<u>3. Residual plot</u>

You must plot the last column:

  x      residual

  1       - 2.4

  2      - 4.9

  3       - 6.2

  4       - 6.0

  5        2.1

See the plot attached.

<em>Does the residual plot show that the line of best fit is appropriate for the data?</em>

Ideally, a residual plot for a line of best fit that is appropiate for the data must not show any pattern; the points should be randomly distributed about the x-axis.

But the points of the plot are not randomly distributed about the x-axis:  there are 4 points below the x-axis and 1 point over the x-axis: there are more negative residuals than positive residuals.  This is a pattern. Also, you could say that they show a curve pattern, which drives to the same conclusion: the residual plot shows that the line of best fit is not appropiate for the data.

Thus, the conclusion should be: No, the points have a pattern.

  • 1. "<em>Yes, the points have no pattern</em>": false, because as shown, the points do have a pattern, which makes the residual plots does not show that the line of best fit is appropiate for the data.

  • 2. "<em>No, the points are evenly distributed about the x-axis</em>": true. As already said the points have a pattern. It is a curved pattern, and this <em>shows the line of best fit is not appropiate for the data.</em>

  • 3. "<em>No, the points are in a linear pattern</em>": false. The points are not in a linear pattern.

  • 4. "<em>Yes, the points are in a curved pattern</em>": false. Because the points are in a curved pattern, the residual plot shows that the line of best fit is not appropiate for the data.

What is likely negative affect on the earth extra carbon dioxide is added to our atmosphere
konstantin123 [22]

Answer:

It will change weather patterns and destroy ecosystems.

Explanation:

Carbon dioxide, while not being the most power, is the most common greenhouse gas. A greenhouse gas helps to trap longwave radiation from leaving the Earth’s atmosphere and is enhancing global warming. We say enhanced global warming due to the Earth warming through natural reasons too. Several changes occur due to this temperature increase. Sea ice melting causes freshwater to enter the sea. An increase in sea levels can cause coastal flooding, increased erosion and a higher frequency and power of storms. Water density is linked to salinity. By introducing more freshwater the salinity decreases in the north and south of the Earth. If the oceanic currents change this will cause the weather to become more extreme during seasonal changes in many regions around the world. While humans can adapt their living conditions to suit the climate, many animals and plants can not. Therefore, enhanced global warming will cause the loss of many ecosystems around the world, including coral reefs.
