Answer: 41 7/10
Explanation: The mark is on the seventh out of ten marks
kg and all the given units are units used to measure mass.
kg is the standard unit to measure mass
lets find the value of 0.00684 kg in all the given units
a. dkg
1 kg is equivalent to 100 decagram (dkg)
therefore 0.00684 kg is = 100 dkg/kg x 0.00684 kg = 0.684 dkg
this is not the given value therefore this choice is incorrect
b. 1 kg is equivalent to 1000 g
therefore 0.00684 kg = 1000 g/kg x 0.00684 kg = 6.84 g
this is the given value so this is correct
c. 1 kg is equivalent to 100 000 centigrams (cg)
therefore 0.00684 kg = 100 000 cg/kg x 0.00684 kg = 684 cg
this is the given value so this is also correct
d) 1 kg is equivalent to 1 000 000 mg
therefore 0.00684 kg = 1 000 000 mg/kg x 0.00684 kg = 6 840 mg
this too is correct
the incorrect answer is A. 0.0684 dkg
The balanced equation :
<em>2Al₂O₃⇒ 4Al+3O₂</em>
<h3>Further explanation</h3>
Given
Reaction
Al₂O₃⇒ Al+O₂
Required
Balanced equation
Solution
A chemical reaction is said to be balanced if the number of elements involved in the reaction is the same (either the reactants or the products)
The reaction above is said to be unbalanced because the number of elements Al and O in the reactants and products is not the same.
The balancing step
1. Give a coefficient
Al₂O₃⇒ aAl+bO₂
2. Make an equation
Al, left = 2, right = a⇒a=2
O, left = 3, right = 2b⇒2b=3⇒b=3/2
The equation becomes :
Al₂O₃⇒ 2Al+3/2O₂ x2
<em>2Al₂O₃⇒ 4Al+3O₂</em>
