Answer:

The correct answer is;

Demand for gasoline in Orlando is price inelastic.

Explanation:

The elasticity is the degree of response to a change in price or quantity supplied to the the quantity demanded. An elastic demand responds positively to change in price, while an inelastic demand means that when there is a price increase, the quantity demanded remains the same and where there is a drop in price the quantity demanded remains constant.

If a small change in price results in a large change in demand then the good is said to be price elastic

In the question the price increases by 10% while the quantity demanded drops 5 % daily. Therefore it is price inelastic

Who is Alfred Wegener? What did he discover?
Aliun [14]

Answer:

Alfred Wegener proposed the theory of continental drift – the idea that Earth's continents move. Despite publishing a large body of compelling fossil and rock evidence for his theory between 1912 and 1929, it was rejected by most other scientists.

Hope this helps!

A 10 gram sample of iron reacts with oxygen to form 18.2 grams of ferric oxide. How many grams of oxygen reacted?
RoseWind [281]

Answer:

\boxed {\boxed {\sf 8.2 \ grams}}

Explanation:

According to the Law of Conservation of Mass, the mass of the products must equal the mass of the reactants.

  • mass products = mass reactants

In this problem, the reaction is:

iron + oxygen = ferric \ oxygen

  • The reactants are iron and oxygen. We know the mass of the iron sample is 10 grams.
  • The product is ferric oxide. The mass of the ferric oxide sample is 18.2 grams.

10 \ g + oxygen=18.2 \ g

We want to find how many grams of oxygen reacted. We have to get the oxygen by itself. 10 is being added to oxygen. The inverse of addition is subtraction. Subtract 10 from both sides of the equation.

10 \ g - 10 \ g+ oxygen = 18.2 \ g - 10 \ g

oxygen= 18.2 \ g - 10 \ g

oxygen= 8.2 \ g \\

<u>8.2 grams of oxygen </u>reacted with 10 grams of iron to form 18.2 grams of ferric oxide.

Which of these is an isoelectronic series? 1) na+, k+, rb+, cs+ 2) k+, ca2+, or, s2– 3) na+, mg2+, s2–, cl– 4) li, be, b, c 5) n
ss7ja [257]
An isoelectronic series is where all of the ions listed have the same number of electrons in their atoms. When an atom has net charge of zero or neutral, it has equal number of protons and electrons. Hence, it means that the atomic number = no. of protons = no. of electrons. If these atoms become ions, they gain a net charge of + or -. Positive ions are cations. This means that they readily GIVE UP electrons, whereas negative ions (anions) readily ACCEPT electrons. So, to know which of these are isoelectronic, let's establish first the number of electron in a neutral atom from the periodic table:

Na=11; K=19; Rb=37; Cs = 55; Ca=20; S=16; Mg=12; Li=3; Be=4; B=5; C=6

A. Na⁺: 11-1 = 10 electrons
     K⁺: 19 - 1 = 18 electrons
     Rb⁺: 37-1 = 36 electrons

B. K⁺: 19 - 1 = 18 electrons
    Ca²⁺: 20 - 2 = 18 electrons
    S²⁻:  16 +2 = 18 electrons

C. Na⁺: 11-1 = 10 electrons
    Mg²⁺: 12 - 2 = 10 electrons
     S²⁻:  16 +2 = 18 electrons

D. Li=3 electrons
    Be=4 electrons
    B=5 electrons
    C=6 electrons

The answer is letter B.
