Mad cow disease is caused by a prion. A prion is a malformed protein that is found in the brain tissue of infected cows, and exp

osure can be fatal. Meat that comes in contact with infected tissue becomes contaminated with the prion. Currently, there are no treatments for prion diseases because prions are hard to target and are too similar to normal proteins. To prevent the disease, scientists would most likely recommend that people avoid eating meat entirely. New medicines be developed to prevent infection. People avoid travel in countries where the disease is common. Meat handlers keep brain tissue from coming in contact with other meat.

What is the percent by mass of water in Na2SO4 • 10H2O?
bulgar [2K]
We determine the percent by mass of water in the compound by dividing the mass of  water by the total mass. The total mass of Na2SO4.10H2O is equal to 322 g. The mass of water is 180 g. 
       
                    percent by mass of water = (180 / 322)*(100 %) = 55.9%

Two shopping carts are pushed with the same force. One cart has a larger mass than the other. How does the mass of the shopping
Harman [31]
This would problem will be answered using the concept of momentum. Momentum is the mass times the velocity, where mass is inversely proportional to the velocity. This would mean that an object with greater mass will travel at a much lesser velocity, or vice versa.

Hence, the cart with the smaller mass will accelerate faster.
