Answer:

0.374 Pound Approximately

Solution:

Gram and Pound are related as,

1 Gram = 0.0022 Pound (approximately)

As we are given with 170 g of French Fries, so it can be converted into pounds as,

1 Gram = 0.0022 Pound

So,

170 Grams = X Pounds

Solving for X,

X = (170 Gram × 0.0022 Pounds) ÷ 1 Gram

X = 0.374 Pound Approximately

A solid mixture consists of 47.6g of KNO3 (potassium nitrate) and 8.4g of K2SO4 (potassium sulfate). The mixture is added to 130

IgorLugansk [536]

<u>Answer:</u> No crystals of potassium sulfate will be seen at 0°C for the given amount.

<u>Explanation:</u>

We are given:

Mass of potassium nitrate = 47.6 g

Mass of potassium sulfate = 8.4 g

Mass of water = 130. g

Solubility of potassium sulfate in water at 0°C = 7.4 g/100 g

This means that 7.4 grams of potassium sulfate is soluble in 100 grams of water

Applying unitary method:

In 100 grams of water, the amount of potassium sulfate dissolved is 7.4 grams

So, in 130 grams of water, the amount of potassium sulfate dissolved will be $\frac{7.4}{100}\times 130=9.62g$

As, the soluble amount is greater than the given amount of potassium sulfate

This means that, all of potassium sulfate will be dissolved.

Hence, no crystals of potassium sulfate will be seen at 0°C for the given amount.

A fossil was analyzed and determined to have a carbon-14 level that is 70 % that of living organisms. The half-life of C-14 is 5

Citrus2011 [14]

Answer: 2948

Explanation:

Half life is the amount of time taken by a radioactive material to decay to half of its original value.

$t_{\frac{1}{2}}=\frac{0.693}{k}$

$k=\frac{0.69}{t_{\frac{1}{2}}}=\frac{0.693}{5730}=1.21\times 10^{-4}years^{-1}$

Expression for rate law for first order kinetics is given by:

$t=\frac{2.303}{k}\log\frac{a}{a-x}$

where,

k = rate constant = $1.21\times 10^{-4}years^{-1}$

t = age of sample = ?

a = let initial amount of the reactant = 100

a - x = amount left after decay process = $\frac{70}{100}\times 100=70$

$t=\frac{2.303}{1.21\times 10^{-4}}\log\frac{100}{70}$

$t=2948years$

Thus the fossil is 2948 years old.

1. The first four-legged animals to reach land were classified as

andrezito [222]

Explanation:

The first four-legged animals to reach land were classified as tetrapods the term tetra means four. So tetrapods refer to animals with four limbs.
Pangaea also known as Pangea was a supercontinent during the late Paleozoic and Mesozoic times. It incorporated almost the earth's land masses. The formation and breaking up of continents is a geological cyclic process. And there seemed to have many supercontinents that existed before Pangaea. And according to the sources it assembled from the earlier continental parts approximately 335 million of years ago.
Glaciation is a geographical term that explains the formation, movement, and recession of the glaciers and this process was much more evident in times when the world was covered with ice sheets. Glaciers are nothing but in simple words huge chunks of ice which gets accumulated over a period of time, whose movement is governed by its own weight. Due to this ice layers are built which keep on growing slowly together forming a thick mass of ice.
Waterbody never stops moving and this tidal movement brings a lot of changes in the environment around- flora and fauna. However, global warming causing the melting of ice and glaciers has impacted heavily on this causing the extinction of certain species.
Earlier when these environmental changes were not so rapid, marine life in terms of flora and fauna flourished underwater. There was no soil erosion, seawater contamination in terms of industrial waste being released and other contaminants causing loss of marine life.
