The average age of a breed of dog is 19.5 years. if the distribution of their ages is normal and 20% of dogs are older than 22.6

years, find the standard deviation.

The  standard deviation of the average age of a breed of dog  is said to be 3.69.

<h3>What is the standard deviation about?</h3>

Note that we take:

  • x = dog age has mean 19.5
  • Unknown standard deviation.

Hence:

z = (x - mean) /SD is distributed N (0,1) - mean o standard deviation 1 (standard normal)

Since 20% of dogs are known to be older than 22.6 years:

So 22.6 years is said to be 80th percentile,

Since z matching to 80th percentile (using the standard normal table) s is <em>0.84.</em>

Then one need to plug z, x which is  = 22.6

mean = 19.5 into the stated z equation:

Hence,

0.84 = (22.6 - 19.5)/SD

SD = (22.6 - 19.5)/0.84

= 3.69

What mass of glucose (C6H12O6) should be dissolved in 12. 0 kg of water to obtain a solution with a freezing point of -5. 8 ∘C?.
bogdanovich [222]

The mass of glucose solute dissolved in the solution is 6.739 Kg.

Recall that;

ΔT = K m i

ΔT = Freezing point depression

K =Freezing point depression constant = 1.86°C/mol

m = molality of the solution

i = Van't Hoff factor = 1 (molecular solution)

We have to find the freezing point depression from;

Freezing point depression = Freezing point of pure solvent - Freezing point of solution

Freezing point of pure water = 0°C

Freezing point of solution = -5. 8 ∘C

Freezing point depression = 0°C - (-5. 8 ∘C) = 5. 8 ∘C

Now;

m = ΔT/K i

m = 5. 8 ∘C/ 1.86°C/mol × 1

m = 3.12 m

But molality = number of moles of solute/mass of solvent in Kg

Molar mass of solute = 180 g/mol

Let the mass of solute be m

3.12 = m/180/12

3.12 = m/180 × 12

m = 3.12 × 180 × 12

m = 6739 g or 6.739 Kg

mestny [16]

Hoods become necessary any time water temperatures drop below: 20°C/68°F.

<h3>Why  is it necessary to use  Hoods any time water temperatures drop below: 20°C/68°F?</h3>

It is important to use hood so as to adjust the cold temperature, so as to be able to gain heat.

Therefore, hood serves as a  covering for the head as well as the  neck which has a opening face that prevent cold.
