What we want to measure is the taste of coffee.
The following were kept constant during the experimental investigation:
The type of coffee,
The type of percolator,
The same amount and type of water,
The same perking time,
The same electrical sources.
Because these items were kept constant, they are not expected to influence the outcome of the experimental investigation.
Define:
y = the metric used to measure the taste of coffee
x = amount of coffee grounds used for the taste experiment.
Therefore the relationship that arises from the experiment is
y = y(x).
Because x is controllable and is varied during the experiment, it is the independent variable.
Because the measured value of y depends on x, therefore y is the dependent variable.
Answer:
The taste of coffee is the dependent variable.
The amount of coffee grounds used is the independent variable.
Answer:
The boiling point of the liquid is 47.368°C
Explanation:
Start with Unbalanced Equation and balance it, so...
C7H16+O2--->CO2+H2O
There are 7 C atoms on the left-hand side, so we need 7 C atoms on the right-hand side. Add a 7 in front of the CO2...7CO2+H2O on right side now.
We have fixed 16 H atoms on the left-hand side, so we need 16 H atoms on the right-hand side. Add an 8 in front of H2O to make 16 (8x2)...7CO2+8H2O on right side now.
There are 22 O atoms on the right-hand side: 14 from the CO2 and 8 from the H2O. Add an 11 in front of the O2 on the left side to make 22 (11x2).
Every formula now has a fixed coefficient. You should have a balanced equation of...
C7H16+11O2--->7CO2+8H2O
