A regular pentagon may be divided into 5 congruent triangles.


If the side of the pentagon is 6 feet, each base of the triangles will be 6 feet.


If the distance from the center to a vertex is 6 feet, all the sides of the triangles will 6 feet.


So there are 5 congruent, equilateral triangles each with side equal to 6 feet.


The area one of those triangles is calculateb by:


base * height / 2


height ^2 = (side length) ^2 - (side length /2)^2 = 6^2 - 3^2 = 36 - 9 = 27


=> height = √(27) ≈ 5.2 feet


And, using area = base * height / 2 ,


area of a triangle = 6 feet * 5.2 feet / 2 = 15.6 feet^2


And the area of the entire pentagon equals 5 triangles ≈ 5 * 15.6 feet^2 = 78 feet^2


Answer: 78 feet^2

Dimitri Mendeleev was the first to put elements together on a table. He knew there were elements missing but he noticed a trend in some of the elements known at the time. Sodium, Lithium and other alkali metals all have the same properties so he put them under the same column and created other columns with similar attributes (Halogens, Noble gases, Alkaline earth metals). Over the years, new elements were discovered and put into the rough outline that Mendeleev created.

I hope that is about what you wanted.

What is the molarity of solution that is 5.50 percentage by mass oxalic acid and has a density of 1.024 g/ml
Y_Kistochka [10]

Answer:

0.6257 M is the molarity of solution that is 5.50 percentage by mass oxalic acid.

Explanation:

Mass percentage of oxalic acid = 5.50%

This means that in 100 grams of solution there are 5.50 grams of oxalic acid.

Mass of solution , m = 100

Volume of the solution = V

Density of the solution = d = 1.024 g/mL

V=\frac{m}{d}=\frac{100 g}{1.024 g/mL}=97.66mL

V = 97.66 mL = 0.09766 L

(1 mL = 0.001 L)

Moles of oxalic acid = \frac{5.50 g}{90 g/mol}=0.06111 mol

Molarity=\frac{\text{Moles of solute}}{\text{Volume of solution in L}}

The molarity of the solution :

=\frac{0.06111 mol}{0.09766  L}=0.6257M

0.6257 M is the molarity of solution that is 5.50 percentage by mass oxalic acid.

Which activity performed by a chemist is primarily based on an understanding of physics?
Hatshy [7]
Physical science, is the study of the composition, structure, properties and change of matter.[1][2] Chemistry is chiefly concerned with atoms and their interactions with other atoms - for example, [ the properties of the chemical bonds formed between atoms to create chemical compounds. As well as this, interactions including atoms and other phenomena - electrons and various forms of energy—are
