Answer:

The answer to your question is: Iron oxidizes and Copper reduces

Explanation:

An element oxidizes when it loses electrons

An element reduces when it gains electrons

Then

Fe ⇒ Fe⁺² Now, is more positive, it loses electrons

Cu⁺² ⇒ Cu Now, is more negative, it gains electrons

Iron oxidizes and Copper reduces

Seems to be an ideal gas law question. The relevant equation is:

PV = nRT

where P is the pressure in atmospheres, V is the volume in liters, n is the number of moles of gas, R is the gas constant (0.082 atm-L/mole-deg K), and T is temperature in Kelvins. STP means standard temperature and pressure and this is taken as 1 atm and 0º C or 273 K.

To calculate the number of molecules we will use the constant 6.023 * 10^23 molecules/mole and, therefore, we will need to know the number of moles (n). So, first we’ll rearrange the gas law equation, isolating ’n’ and then put the numbers in.

n = PV/RT = 1 * 1 / (0.082)(273) = 0.0447 moles

So, to calculate the number of molecules, multiple this by the number of molecules in a mole and you get:

# molecules of nitrogen in 1 Liter at STP = 6.023 * 10^23 molecules/mole * 0.0447 moles = 2.6905 * 10^22 molecules

Note, it does not matter what the gas is.

Can someone help.? thanks :)

Answer:

1. Equation: 2x + 3 = 9x - 11

2. Each row has 2 chairs

Explanation:

The variable x represents the number of chairs in each row.

1. She can form 2 rows of a given length with 3 chairs left over.

Thus, she has:

number of rows number of chairs in chairs number of chairs

each row left over she has

2 x 3 2x + 3

2. She can form 9 rows of the same length if she gets 11 more chairs.

That means that she is short in 11 chairs to have 9x chairs, or that she has 11 less chairs than 9x chairs. Then she has:

9x - 11

3. Equation:

Then, number of chairs she has is 2x + 3 and, also, 9x - 11, which allows to set the equation:

2x + 3 = 9x -11

4. Solve the equation:

9x - 2x = 3 + 11

7x = 14

x = 2

Therefore, each row has 2 chairs, and she has 2x + 3 = 4 + 3 = 7 chairs.
