The reason why iron oxide has more mass than the iron is because Iron oxide has oxygen atoms, and pure iron does not.

When iron rusts and forms iron oxide, the iron oxide has more mass than the iron. Which statement correctly explains this

observation?

(A)Iron oxide has oxygen atoms, and pure iron does not.

(B)The oxygen atoms in iron oxide have more mass than the iron atoms in pure iron.

(C)The iron atoms in iron oxide have more mass than pure iron.

(D)There are more iron atoms in iron oxide than in pure iron.

When a chemical reaction takes place, other atoms are combined with pure elements to form compounds. This addition of another atom (oxygen) after reaction makes iron oxide formed heavier than pure iron.

Iron oxide is a chemical substance formed when pure iron rusts. The formation of iron oxide is a chemical reaction.

Hence, the correct answer to the question is;  the iron is heavier  because Iron oxide has oxygen atoms, and pure iron does not.

Layla has a coin that has a 60\%60%60, percent chance of showing heads each time it is flipped. She is going to flip the coin 55
valina [46]

The probability that she gets <em>more than 3 heads</em> is 0.3456.

There are only two possible outcomes for a fliped coin, either it is head, or it is tail. Since the result is independent of each other coins, the binomial distribution will be used.

Given the following parameters:  

  • x is the number of successes = 5 (coin flipped 5 times)
  • n is the number of trials
  • p is the probability of success on a single trial = 0.6

Using the binomial distribution formula:

P(X =x)=nC_x p^x (1-p)^{n-x}\\P(X =3) = 5C_3 \ (0.6)^3 (1-0.6)^{5-3}\\P(X =3) = 5C_3 \ (0.6)^3 (0.4)^{2}\\P(X=3)=0.3456

Hence the probability that she gets <em>more than 3 heads</em> is 0.3456.
