Explanation:

Defining law of definite proportions, it states that when two elements form more than one compound, the ratios of the masses of the second element which combine with a fixed mass of the first element will always be ratios of small whole numbers.

A. One of the oxides (Oxide 1) contains 63.2% of Mn.

Mass of the oxide = 100g

Mass of Mn = 63.2 g

Mass of O = 100 - 63.2

= 36.8 g

Ratio of Mn to O = 63.2/36.8

= 1.72

Another oxide (Oxide 2) contains 77.5% Mn.

Mass of oxide = 100 g

Mass of Mn = 77.5 g

Mass of O = 100 - 77.5

= 22.5 g

Ratio of Mn to O = 77.5/22.5

= 3.44

Therefore, the ratio of the masses of Mn and O in Oxide 1 and Oxide 2 is in the ratio 1.72 : 3.44, which is also 1 : 2. So the law of multiple proportions is obeyed.

B.

Oxide 1

Mass of Mn per 1 g of O = mass of Mn/mass of O

= 77.5/22.5

= 3.44 g/g of Oxygen.

Oxide 2

Mass of Mn per 1 g of O = mass of Mn/mass of O

= 77.5/22.5

= 3.44 g/g of Oxygen.

Which statement best describes organs in an organ system? A. Each organ does part of a larger job. B. Each organ can perform onl
nikklg [1K]

Answer:

The correct answer is -  A. Each organ does part of a larger job.

Explanation:

An organ in an organ system of an individual organism is the group of similar tissues that collectively perform a common function in the organ system and play their part in a larger job.

A group of organs makes an organ system to perform a particular but large function in the organism for its survival. An example of the organ in an organ system is the heart in the cardiovascular system. The heart is an organ that pumps the blood out of the heart to the various part of the cardiovascular system such as lungs, arteries, and veins so it can take nutrients and oxygen to various parts carried by the blood.

Perform the following
docker41 [41]

Answer:

8.73

Explanation:

when you are adding or subtracting numbers, the sigfig (significant figure) is based on how many numbers after the decimal. with this info, we can see that 15.67 has 2 sigfigs and 6.943 has 3 sigfigs. when you subtract normally, you would get 8.727, which has 3 sigfigs, so you would round the last 7 up to get 8.73 with 2 sigfigs!

also it is to 2 sigfigs because we know that we go by the least number of sigfigs. hope this helped!
