<h3>Answer:</h3>

8.09 × 10²² formula units

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

Mass of MgCl₂ is 12.8 g

Required to calculate the formula units

1 mole of a compound contains the Avogadro's number formula units

That is;

1 mole = 6.022 × 10²³ formula units

<h3>Step 1: Calculate the moles of MgCl₂ in 12.8 g </h3>

The molar mass of MgCl₂ is 95.211 g/mol

Number of moles = Mass ÷ molar mass

Moles of MgCl₂ = 12.8 g ÷ 95.211 g/mol

                          = 0.1344 mole

<h3>Step 2: Calculate the formula units of MgCl₂</h3>

1 mole =  6.022 × 10²³ formula units

Therefore;

Number of formula units = Moles × 6.022 × 10²³ formula units

                                    = 0.1344 mole × 6.022 × 10²³ formula units

                                     = 8.09 × 10²² formula units

Therefore, there are 8.09 × 10²² formula units in 12.8 g of MgCl₂

What is the death dependent variable? <br> Picture
polet [3.4K]

Answer:

Dependent and independent variables are variables in mathematical modeling, statistical modeling and experimental sciences. Dependent variables receive this name because, in an experiment, their values are studied under the supposition or hypothesis that they depend, by some law or rule (e.g., by a mathematical function), on the values of other variables. Independent variables, in turn, are not seen as depending on any other variable in the scope of the experiment in question; thus, even if the existing dependency is invertible (e.g., by finding the inverse function when it exists), the nomenclature is kept if the inverse dependency is not the object of study in the experiment. In this sense, some common independent variables are time, space, density, mass, fluid flow rate[1][2], and previous values of some observed value of interest (e.g. human population size) to predict future values (the dependent variable)[3].

Of the two, it is always the dependent variable whose variation is being studied, by altering inputs, also known as regressors in a statistical context. In an experiment, any variable that the experimenter manipulates[clarification needed] can be called an independent variable. Models and experiments test the effects that the independent variables have on the dependent variables. Sometimes, even if their influence is not of direct interest, independent variables may be included for other reasons, such as to account for their potential confounding effect.
