Answer:

101 g of Potassium is equivalent to 2.583 moles of Potassium.

Step-by-step explanation:

As per definition of moles, molecular weight of a substance = 1 mole

So molecular weight of Potassium = 39.0983 g

∵ 39.0983 g weight of Potassium = 1 mole

∴ 1 g weight of Potassium = $\frac{1}{39.0983}$ g

∴ 101 g of Potassium = $\frac{101}{39.0983}$ g

= 2.583 moles

Therefore, 101 g of Potassium is equivalent to 2.583 moles of Potassium.

Write 0.6 as a fraction ?

satela [25.4K]

Answer:

6/10 ; 3/5 (simplified form)

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve, note the decimal place value. Move the decimal point to the right two place values, and set it over 100

0.6 = 60/100

Simplify the fraction. Divide common factors from the numerator & denominator (20 in this case)

(60/100)/(20/20) = 3/5

3/5 is your answer

A bridge in the shape of an arch connects two cities separated by a river. The two ends of the bridge are located at (–7, –13) a

sdas [7]

Answer:

$y=-\dfrac{13}{49}x^2$

Step-by-step explanation:

The shape of an arch corresponds to a parabola.

the general equation for a parabola is:

$y=ax^2+bx+c$

we're given three coordinates: (-7,-13),(7,-13) and (0,0)

so we can plug these values in the general equation to make 3 separate equations:

(x,y) = (-7,-13)

$-13=a(-7)^2+b(-7)+c$

$49a-7b+c=-13$

(x,y) = (7,-13)

$-13=a(7)^2+b(7)+c$

$49a+7b+c=-13$

(x,y) = (0,0)

$0=a(0)^2+b(7)+c$

$c=0$

so we have three equations. and we can solve them simultaneously to find the values of a,b, and c.

we've already found c = 0, let's use substitute it to other equations.

$49a-7b+c=-13\quad\Rightarrow\quad49a-7b=-13$

$49a+7b+c=-13\quad\Rightarrow\quad49a+7b=-13$

we can solve these two equation using the elimination method, by simply adding the two equations

$\quad\quad49a-7b=-13\\+\quad49a+7b=-13$

------------------------------

$\quad\quad 98a=-26$

$\quad\quad a=-\dfrac{13}{49}$

Now we can plug this value of a in any of the two equations.

$49a-7b=-13$

$49\left(-\dfrac{13}{49}\right)-7b=-13$

$-13-7b=-13$

$-7b=0$

$b=0$

We have the values of a,b, and c. We can plug them in the general equation to find the equation of the arch.

$y=\left(-\dfrac{13}{49}\right)x^2+0x+0$

$y=-\dfrac{13}{49}x^2$

$49y=-13x^2$

This our equation of the arch!
