Answer:

Square.

Explanation:

The surface formulae for a rectangle and a square are, respectively:

A_{r} = w\cdot h

A_{s} = l^{2}

The surfaces are computed herein:

A_{r} = (7\,in)\cdot \left(\frac{3}{4}\,in\right)

A_{r} = \frac{21}{4}\,in^{2}

A_{s} = \left(\frac{5}{2}\,in\right)^{2}

A_{s} = \frac{25}{4}\,in^{2}

Since A_{s} > A_{r}, the square has the largest area.

The rectangle has an area of- 5.25

and the square has an area of - 6.25

So the square has a larger area

Find the percent composition of OXYGEN in Manganese (III) nitrate, Mn(NO3)3.
BaLLatris [955]

Answer:

59.8%

Explanation:

First find the Mr of manganese (III) nitrate.

Mr of Mn(NO₃)₃ = 54.9 + (14 × 3) + (16 × 3 × 3) = <u>240.9</u>

Since we have to find the percentage composition of oxygen, we need to find the Mr of oxygen in the compound, which is:

Mr of (O₃)₃ = (16 × 3) × 3 = <u>144</u>

Now we can find percentage composition / percentage by mass of oxygen.

% composition = \frac{Mr\ of\ oxygen\ in\ compound}{Mr\ of\ compound} × 100

% composition = \frac{144}{240.9} × 100 = <u>59.776%</u>

∴ % compostion of oxygen in maganese(III)nitrate is 59.8% (to 3 significant figures).

What is the cost to drive to Los Angeles from San Francisco a distance of 405 miles if the cost of gasoline is $2.90 a gallon an
choli [55]

Answer: $46.98

Explanation:

The distance to drive to Los Angeles from San Francisco is 405 miles. Since the car get 25 miles per gallon of gas, for 405 miles, the car will use:

= 405/25 = 16.2 gallons

Since the cost of gasoline is $2.90 a gallon and the car will use 16.2 gallons. The cost will be:

= $2.90 × 16.2 gallons

= $46.98

jeka57 [31]
Limitations of Van der waal's equation. (i) The value of 'b' is not constant but varies with pressure and temperature. (ii) The value of is not equal to 3b, but actually it is equal to, in some case; and in other cases 2b. (iii) The value of is not equal to but it is usually more than 3 for most of the gases.
