Answer: 0.72 litres of water is wasted in one day.

Explanation:

First you need to find out how many minutes are in a day. Do this by multiplying the number of minutes in an hour (60) by the number of hours in a day (24). 24 x 60 = 1440. If the faucet is dripping at 5 drops per minute, then multiply 5 by the number of minutes in a day (1440) to see how many drops drip in one day. 5 x 1440 = 7200. Now we need to figure out how many mL fo water that is. if 10 drops is 1 mL, then we need to divide the total number of drops (7200) by 10. 7200 divided by 10 is 720. That means 720 mL of water is dripping per day. Finally, we must convert mL to litres. There are 1000 mL in one litre, so divide 720 by 1000. The final answer is 0.72

Please help me with this chem question, I’ll mark you brainiest if it’s right. There’s multiple answers for this one.
Kazeer [188]

Answer:

Option A. KCl (aq)

Option D. Mg(OH)₂(s

Explanation:

We'll begin by writing the balanced equation for the reaction. This is illustrated below:

MgCl₂(aq) + KOH(aq) —>

In solution, MgCl₂(aq) and KOH(aq) will dissociate as follow:

MgCl₂(aq) —> Mg²⁺(aq) + 2Cl¯(aq)

KOH(aq) —> K⁺(aq) + OH¯(aq)

MgCl₂(aq) + KOH(aq) —>

Mg²⁺(aq) + 2Cl¯(aq) + 2K⁺(aq) + OH¯(aq) —> 2K⁺(aq) + 2Cl¯(aq) + Mg(OH)₂ (s)

MgCl₂(aq) + KOH(aq) —> 2KCl (aq) + Mg(OH)₂(s)

Thus, the products of the above reaction are: KCl(aq) and Mg(OH)₂(s)

Thus, option A and D gives the correct answer to the question.

How can scientists detect blood doping?
aev [14]

Answer:

There are typically three ways that it is accomplished: use of erythropoietin (EPO) or synthetic oxygen carriers and blood transfusions. While transfusions of large volumes of blood or use of EPO can be detected, microdosing EPO or transfusing smaller volumes of packed red blood cells is much harder to detect.

Ugo [173]

Answer:

Vestigial Structures

Explanation:

Structures that were needed for an organism's ancestor, but no longer required for survival for the current organism. We needed our wisdom teeth and appendix in order to eat tougher foods, but now we do not need those to survive. But, we still have them.
