Explain how 0.5 and 0.5555555...are different. which is greater?

Chemistry

k0ka [10]3 years ago
6 0
I think the major difference is that 0.5 is exactly equal to a half. The other 0.555555 is equal to a half plus five hundredths plus thousandths plus five ten thousandths plus five hundred thousandths, plus five millionths and so forth; and therefore it is greater than 0.5. In other words 0.555555 is called a recurring decimal.

Which element is used for the shiny trim on cars
galben [10]
<span>The correct answer is either Chrome (Chromium), or Aluminum. Unlike steel, these two don't rust easily and can be polished to be quite shiny, especially Chromium, which is why you'll always hear people who like cars talking about chrome wheels and chrome spoilers and things like that. They are not that good for bumpy or roads that are full of holes because they can bend much easier than steel so it can be expensive to maintain.</span>

A stable subatomic particle known by the symbol for "proton"

e elementary charge, p, H+, or 1H+ having a positive electric charge. Its mass is 1,836 times greater than an electron's mass and just a little bit less than that of a neutron (the proton–electron mass ratio). "Nucleons" refers to protons and neutrons together, each of which has a mass of roughly one atomic mass unit (particles present in atomic nuclei).

Each atom. has a nucleus. that contains one or more protons. In order to keep the atomic electrons bound, they offer the central attractive electrostatic force. An element's defining characteristic, known as the atomic number, is the number of protons in the nucleus (represented by the symbol Z)

A pharmacist wishes to strengthen a mixture from 10%alcohol to 30% alcohol. How much pure alcohol should be added to 7 liters of
Tomtit [17]

Answer:

2 litres of pure alcohol will be added to make the overall concentration of 9 litres of mixture as 30%.

Explanation:

Suppose x is the number of litres added to the 10% mixture than the quantity of new mixture is given as below

  • n_{old}=7 litres
  • n_{new}=7+x litres

Also the quantity of alcohol is given as

  • q_{old}=10 \% \, of \, 7 \, litres =0.7
  • q_{added}=x
  • q_{new}= 30 \% \,of \,new\, quantity = 0.3(7+x)

Now the equation is as

                                  q_{old}+q_{added}=q_{new}\\0.7+x=0.3(7+x)\\0.7+x=2.1+0.3x\\x-0.3x=2.1-0.7\\0.7x=1.4\\x=2 \, litres

So 2 litres of pure alcohol will be added to make the overall concentration of 9 litres of mixture as 30%.

Calculate the frequency
Ber [7]
Given: wavelength of Nitrogen laser (∧) = 337.1 nm = 337.1 X 10^-9 m

We know that, Energy of photon (E) = hc/∧ = hv
where, v = frequency of photon and c = speed of light = 3 X 10^8 m/s

Thus, v = c/∧ = (3 X 10^8)/ (337.1 X 10^-9) = 8.899 X 10^14 s-1.

Answer: F<span>requency of nitrogen laser = </span>8.899 X 10^14 s-1.

What is the primary reason that atomic radius decreases as you move from left to right across the periodic table even through th
Anika [276]

Answer:

As you move across a period the electrons are being added to the same shell. But, protons are being added as well. This makes the nucleus more positively charged and, increasing protons has a greater effect than electrons. So, there is a greater nuclear attraction and, because the electrons are being added to the same shell that shell gets pulled in more. This causes a decrease in atomic radius.
