Answer & Explanation:

As an Alka-Seltzer tablet dissolves in water, it liberates carbon dioxide. ... This carbon dioxide gas has mass, but since it is a gas it escapes from the container and diffuses into the atmosphere. The loss of mass from the container is measured directly with the analytical balance.

Answer:

It produces carbon dioxide when an Alka-Seltzer tablet dissolves in water. In the bath, the carbon dioxide dissolves and then emerges as a gas from the solution.

This carbon dioxide gas has mass, but it escapes from the container and diffuses into the atmosphere because it is a gas.

The mass loss from the container is directly calculated by the analytical balance.

Mature elephants consume an average of 600 pounds of food per day. If an elephant

MAXImum [283]

Answer:

$\large \boxed{\text{4 600 000 kg or 4600 Mg}}$

Explanation:

1. Calculate the adult life

If the elephant is an adult from its 10th birthday until the day before its 56th birthday, its

Adult life = 55 - 10 + 1 = 46 yr

2. Convert years to days

$\text{Adult life} = \text{46 yr} \times \dfrac{\text{365.25 da}}{\text{1 yr}} = \text{16 800 da}$

3. Convert days to pounds of feed

$\text{Feed} = \text{16 800 da} \times \dfrac{\text{600 lb}}{\text{1 da}} = 1.01 \times 10^{7} \text{ lb}$

4. Convert pounds to kilograms and megagrams

$\text{Feed} =1.01 \times 10^{7} \text{ lb} \times \dfrac{\text{1 kg}}{\text{2.20 lb}} =\textbf{4 600 000 kg} = \textbf{4600 Mg}\\\\\text{The elephant will eat $\large \boxed{\textbf{4 600 000 kg or 4600 Mg}}$ of food.}$

Note: The answer can have only two significant figures because that is all you gave for age of the elephant.
