In an area in which electricity costs 8 cents/kilowatt-hour, a 5 kW clothes dryer runs for 90 minutes to dry a load of laundry.

How much did it cost to dry these clothes?

90 minutes is 1.5 hours.

5 kW * 1.5 hours = 7.5 kWh

8c/kWh * 7.5 kWh = 60 cents

The coefficients in a chemical equation represent the
expeople1 [14]

Answer:

  • <em>The coefficients in a chemical equation represent the </em><u>relative number of moles of each reactant and product that interven in the chemical reaction.</u>

Explanation:

The <em>coefficients</em> are the numbers that you put in front of each chemical formula that represents the reactants and products in the <em>chemical equation</em>. They indicate the mole ratio in which the elements or compounds react to form the products, as per the chemical equation.

See an example:

  • Word equation: hydrogen and oxygen produce water

  • Chemical (skeleton) equation: H₂ (g) + O₂(g) → H₂O (g)

      This equation is not balanced: the  number of atoms of oxygenin the reactant side is 2 while the number of atoms of oxygen isn the product side is 1. In order to balance the equation you need to add some coefficients.

When no coefficients are shown it is understood that the coefficient is 1.

  • Balanced chemical equation: 2H₂ (g) + O₂(g) → 2H₂O (g)

The coefficients 2 in front of H₂ and 1 (understood) in front of O₂, in the reactant side, and 2 in front of H₂O, in the product side, balance the equation.

Those coefficients mean that the 2 molecules (or mole of molecules) of H₂ react with 1 molecule (or mole of molecules) of O₂ to form 2 molecules (or moles) of H₂O (product side).

That is the mole ratio: 2 H₂ : 1 O₂ : 2 H₂O.

Notice that, in spite of the aboslute numbers may change, the mole ratio is unique for any chemical reaction.  For example 4 : 2 : 4 is the same ratio that 2 : 1 : 2, or 8 : 4 : 8, but the most common practice is to use the most simple form of the ratio, i.e. 2: 1: 2.

Which plants do siamangs rely on most as a source of their food
sp2606 [1]

They seem to eat a lot ranging from woody plants to vines, though in the rainforest most of their diet is made up of Malaysia and plant material, to be more specific

So I would go with leaves, 50%

Flowers, buds, and insects, 10%

Fruits, 40%


--They also really like figs

Darwin called this idea of certain traits being selected in order for an organism to reproduce sexual selection. In crickets and
tamaranim1 [39]

Th correct answer is option C. Calling can be hazardous because it also attracts parasites and predators.

The mating call is used by the males to attract females for sexual reproduction. By using vocal sounds males are not only making themselves attractive to females, they are also making themselves vulnerable to predators.

Thus the mating call can have a disastrous effect on the survival of the species.
