2. (Exercise 4.1.6) A liquid adhesive consists of a polymer dissolved in a solvent. The amount of polymer in the solution is imp

ortant to the application. An adhesive dealer receives an order for 3000 lb of an adhesive solution containing 13% polymer by weight. On hand are 500 lb of 10% solution and very large quantities of 20% solution and pure solvent. Calculate the weight of each that must be blended together to fill this order. Use all of the 10% solution.

Answer:

800 lb of pure solvent , 1700 lb of 20% solution and 500 lb of 10% solution will be mixed to form 3000 lb of 13 % solution .

Explanation:

3000 lb of 13% solution is required .

Total adhesive in weight = 3000 x .13 = 390 lb of adhesive

Available = 500 lb of 10% solution = 50 lb of adhesive

Rest = 390 - 50 = 340 lb required .

rest mass of solution = 3000 - 500 = 2500 lb

mass of adhesive required = 340 lb

Let the mass  of 20% required be V

mass of adhesive = .20 V

.20 V = 340

V = 1700

rest of the volume = 2500 - 1700 = 800 lb which will be of pure solvent

So 800 lb of pure solvent , 1700 lb of 20% solution and 500 lb of 10% solution will be mixed to form 3000 lb of 13 % solution .

How does the Sun get energy?
Nikolay [14]
The sun generates energy from a process called nuclear fusion. During nuclear fusion, the high pressure and temperature in the sun's core cause nuclei to separate from their electrons. Hydrogen nuclei fuse to form one helium atom.

The best tool to use to locate the boundaries between countries is a(n) _____.
8_murik_8 [283]

The correct answer is (b) political map

The explanation:

when a political map: is different than other types of maps because it focuses on government or administrative boundaries rather than geographical or physical features. Instead of showing viewers what exists in the land, it shows those imaginary lines that serve to separate countries, states, territories, and cities. These maps generally include larger bodies of water, such as oceans, rivers, and lakes, as landmarks.

It was made by man not natural like the others maps.

so this is the correct answer.

These traits describe either a chemical or a nuclear reaction. Which statements describe a nuclear reaction? Check all that appl
Ugo [173]

The statements that describe a nuclear reaction are may involve a change in total mass, involve very high-energy changes, and involve changes in nuclides when decay takes place.  

There are two kinds of nuclear reactions, that is, fission and fusion. Fusion involves the fusion of two light atoms into a heavier atom, while fission involves the splitting of an unstable isotope (with a high mass number) into stable elements of lower mass number, which vary in features from the parent atoms. Both the reactions discharge huge concentration of energies in the process.
