The independent variable would be the variable in the research that is being manipulated by the researcher. In this case, it would be amount of food as it is what is being manipulated and changed in the research design. The dependent variable would be the variable that is being studied so, for this case, it would be the weight gain of the mice. The constants are the factors that might affect the dependent variable but is held constant or the same by the researcher throughout the experiment. These are the size of cage, amount of water, amount of sunlight, temperature and the exercise wheel.
1) divide each percentage by the relative atomic mass of the element
2) divide all results by the smallest number
3)multiply by a whole number to get the simplest whole number ratio (if necessary)
that is to say:
Na S O
32.37÷23 22.58÷32 45.05÷16
= 1.407 = 0.7056 = 2.816 (to 4 significant figures)
the smallest number here is 0.7056 so:
1.407÷0.7056 0.7056÷0.7056 2.816÷0.7056
=1.99 approx.2 = 1 3.99 approx. 4
here there is no need to carry out step 3 as ratio obtained is already a simplest whole number ratio
so empirical formula is: Na₂SO₄
Answer : It increases
Rusting is where oxygen binds to iron and forms iron oxide.
So once iron rusts, there is oxygen, just not in air; it's in the iron oxide.
All reactions are reversible, albeit at different rates (the "irreversible" ones are still reversible, but much slower given that they take so much collision luck and energy.
Answer:
5.00 mol Mg
10.0 mol Cl
40.0 mol O
Explanation:
Step 1: Given data
Moles of Mg(ClO₄)₂: 5.00 mol
Step 2: Calculate the number of moles of Mg
The molar ratio of Mg(ClO₄)₂ to Mg is 1:1.
5.00 mol Mg(ClO₄)₂ × 1 mol Mg/1 mol Mg(ClO₄)₂ = 5.00 mol Mg
Step 3: Calculate the number of moles of Cl
The molar ratio of Mg(ClO₄)₂ to Cl is 1:2.
5.00 mol Mg(ClO₄)₂ × 2 mol Cl/1 mol Mg(ClO₄)₂ = 10.0 mol Cl
Step 4: Calculate the number of moles of O
The molar ratio of Mg(ClO₄)₂ to Cl is 1:8.
5.00 mol Mg(ClO₄)₂ × 8 mol O/1 mol Mg(ClO₄)₂ = 40.0 mol O
