Hi there!

We can use pythagorean theorem to solve this problem here. The easiest way to go about solving this problem is to use the theorem to find the hypotenuse, then dividing it by 5 to find the value of x, since the hypotenuse is 5x.

WORK:
27^2 + 36^2 = h^2     (plugging into theorem)
729 + 1296 = h^2     (squaring the numbers)
h^2 = 2025              (adding the numbers together)
hypotenuse = 49    (taking the square root of 2025)
49/5 = x                 (dividing 49 by 5 to find x)
x = 9.8                  (dividing)

Hope this helps!! :)

Energy Sources (6 points) A. Sort the types of energy into the "renewable" and "nonrenewable" columns. (1 point)
denpristay [2]

Explanation:

(A)   Renewable resources are defined as the resources that can be used again and again.

For example, wind, hydroelectric energy, geothermal etc.

On the other hand, resources which cannot be used again and again and which cannot be replaced by natural means are known as non-renewable resources.

For example, coal, petroleum etc are all non-renewable resources.

Therefore, given options are distinguished as follows.

Renewable energy : Wind, Hydroelectric, Geothermal, Biomass, and Solar.

Non-renewable energy : Coal, Petroleum, Natural gas.

(B)    Fuels which decompose for a long period of time and which arise from old life forms are known as fossil fuels.

When fossil fuels burn in the presence of air that is, combustion of fossil fuels give carbon dioxide and water.

If i have 340mL of a 1.5 M NaBr solution, What will the concentration be for 1000mL?
Gekata [30.6K]

Answer:

0.51M

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Initial volume of NaBr = 340mL

Initial molarity  = 1.5M

Final volume  = 1000mL

Unknown:

Final molarity = ?

Solution;

This is a dilution problem whereas the concentration of a compound changes from one to another.

In this kind of problem, we must establish that the number of moles still remains the same.

    number of moles initially before diluting = number of moles after dilution

Number of moles  = Molarity x volume

Let us find the number of moles;

          Number of moles  = initial volume x initial molarity

Convert mL to dm³;

                  1000mL  = 1dm³

                     340mL gives \frac{340}{1000}   = 0.34dm³

Number of moles  = initial volume x initial molarity  = 0.34 x 1.5 = 0.51moles

Now to find the new molarity/concentration;

               Final molarity  = \frac{number of moles}{Volume}    = \frac{0.51}{1}    = 0.51M

We can see a massive drop in molarity this is due to dilution of the initial concentration.
