A health clinic uses a solution of bleach to sterilize petri dishes in which cultures are grown. the sterilization tank contains

90 gal of a solution of 4% ordinary household bleach mixed with pure distilled water. new research indicates that the concentration of bleach should be 8% for complete sterilization. how much of the solution should be drained and replaced with bleach to increase the bleach content to the recommended level?

<span>3.75 gallons need to be drained and replaced with bleach. Change the problem to "What amounts of a 100% solution and a 4% solution is needed to make 90 gallons of a 8% solution?" Given that, we'll use the following values. x = amount of 4% solution. 90-x = amount of a 100% solution. The equation to solve then becomes. 0.04 x + (90-x) = 0.08 * 90 0.04 x + 90 - x = 7.2 Add x to both sides 0.04x + 90 = 7.2 + x Subtract 0.04x from both sides 90 = 7.2 + 0.96x Subtract 7.2 from both sides 82.8 = 0.96x Divide both sides by 0.96 86.25 = x So you now know that you need 86.25 gallons of the original 4% solution and (90-86.25) = 3.75 gallons of the bleach to make the desired 90 gallons. So simply drain 3.75 gallons from the tank and replace with bleach.</span>

A qué periodo y grupo pertenecen los átomos de un elemento cuyos átomos presentan 12 electrones caracterizados con ml = 0. Dar c
Klio2033 [76]

Answer:

Periodo: 3.

Grupo: IIA.

Explanation:

Hola.

En este caso, es posible determinar el periodo y grupo por medio de la configuración electrónica del elemento que tiene 12 electrones:

1s^2,2s^2,2p^6,3s^2

De este modo, vemos que el termino final es 3s^2, por lo tanto, decimos que el periodo es 3, ya que este coincide con el nivel de energía. Adicionalmente, para s^2 tenemos que el átomo se encuentra en el grupo IIA ya que tiene dos electrones en su capa o nivel (3) más externa. Esto coincide con el número cuántico dado (magnético, ml=0) ya que cuando el término en la configuración electrónica tiene el subnivel s, este tiene un valor de cero.

Así, el elemento en cuestión sería Magnesio.

¡Saludos!

Why is an asteroid not considered a moon
Dafna1 [17]
An asteroid is not considered a moon because it is a rock that floats in space and sometimes gravity pulls it in a different direction.

The two naturally occurring isotopes of bromine are
ch4aika [34]

Answer:

The decreasing order of masses of for different BrCl molecules :

= M_2

= 113.887 amu ,115.884 amu ,115.885 amu ,117.882 amu

Explanation:

The two naturally occurring isotopes of bromine are

81-Br (80.916 amu, 49.31%)   79-Br (78.918 amu, 50.69%).

The two naturally occurring isotopes of chlorine are

37-Cl (36.966 amu, 24.23%) and   35- Cl (34.969 amu, 75.77%).

Molar mass of BrCl molecule composed of  81-Br and  37-Cl.

Mass of 81-Br = 80.916 amu

Mass of  37-Cl = 36.966 amu

Molar mass of this BrCl molecule,M_1 = 80.916 amu + 36.966 amu

= 117.882 amu

Molar mass of BrCl molecule composed of  79-Br and  35-Cl.

Mass of 79-Br = 78.918 amu

Mass of  35-Cl = 34.969 amu

Molar mass of this BrCl  moleculeM_2 = 78.918 amu + 34.969 amu

= 113.887 amu

Molar mass of BrCl molecule composed of  81-Br and  35-Cl.

Mass of 81-Br = 80.916 amu

Mass of  35-Cl = 34.969 amu

Molar mass of this BrCl molecule,M_3 = 80.916 amu + 34.969 amu

= 115.885 amu

Molar mass of BrCl molecule composed of  79-Br and  37-Cl.

Mass of 79-Br = 78.918 amu

Mass of  37-Cl = 36.966 amu

Molar mass of this BrCl molecule,M_4 = 78.918 amu + 36.966 amu

= 115.884 amu

The decreasing order of masses of for different BrCl molecules :

= M_2

= 113.887 amu < 115.884 amu
