A variable is a quantity that may change within the context of a mathematical problem or experiment. Typically, we use a single letter to represent a variable. The letters x, y, and z are common generic symbols used for variables.


Variables are used to store information to be referenced and manipulated in a computer program. They also provide a way of labeling data with a descriptive name, so our programs can be understood more clearly by the reader and ourselves. It is helpful to think of variables as containers that hold information.

Juanita dissolves 46 g of MgBr2 (molar mass: 184.11 g/mol) in 0.5 kg of distilled water. What is the molality of the solution?
irina [24]
Formula: molality, m = n solute / kg solvent

n solute = # of moles of solute = mass(g) / molar mass

Molar mass of Mg Br2 = 184.11 g/mol

m = [46g / 184.11 g/mol] / 0.5 kg = 0.50 mol/kg

<h3>What are elements?</h3>

Elements are pure substances which are composed of similar atoms.

Elements are defined as substances which cannot be split into simpler substances by an ordinary chemical process.

Elements have different physical and chemical properties and can be classified into:

  • metals
  • semi-metals
  • non-metals

In conclusion, the physical and chemical properties of the elements vary from metals to non-metals.

Why do atoms tend to be bonded to other atoms?
Aleks04 [339]

Answer:

Atoms are often more stable when bonded to other atoms

Explanation:

Like for example let's say ionic bonds..... Since one atom has to lose specific electrons to be stable and the other needs the electrons from the other atom to be stable.....

Leah is trying to determine how music affects the growth of plants. She hypothesizes that classical music will cause a plant to
Pani-rosa [81]
Leah's experiment:
A. Takes careful and regular measurements (she measures the growth every day)
B. Has a specific hypothesis and a controlled experiment (the music is the only changing variable, the growth conditions are identical, and this is what she wants to test in her hypothesis)
C. Experimental data that can be recorded and analyzed (measuring the growth of plant fits this)

So the answer must be D, since there is no mention of past research that scientists have found on this topic.
