The solution for this problem is:
Let x = speed of wind

Speed of plane with the wind = x + 100

Speed of plane against the wind = 100 -x 

 We will be using the formula for distance which is (Rate)(Time), getting the formula for time would be distance/rate Time to travel 600 miles with the wind = Time to travel 400 miles against the wind 600/(x + 100) = 400/(100 - x)

 400(x + 100) = 600(100 - x)

 400x + 40000 = 60000 - 600x

 1000x = 20000

x = 20000/1000

 x = 20 mph

How many moles of carbon in 130g of C2H6
-BARSIC- [3]
 7.22 moles of C2H6. Since there are 2 carbon atoms per C2H6, we must multiply the number of moles of C2H6 by 2 to get the number of moles of Carbon which is 14.4 or 14 if using two sig figs.

H2(g)+I2(s)→HI(s)H2(g)+I2(s)→HI(s) balance equations
poizon [28]

Answer:

H2(g)+I2(s)→2HI(s)

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, according to the given information and unbalanced chemical reaction, we infer it must be balanced in agreement with the law of conservation of mass because the reactants side has two hydrogen and iodine atoms whereas the products side has just one. In such a way, by placing a 2 on HI, we obtain the following balanced reaction:

H2(g)+I2(s)→2HI(s)

ratelena [41]

Answer:

Ice is the last major agent of weathering, erosion, and deposition.

Explanation:
