Answer:

2.954grams of pottasium for that week

Explanation:

According to this question, a medium-sized that weighs 118grams contains 422 milligrams (mg) of potassium nutrient.

If someone eats a medium-sized banana each day for a week, this means that the person has consumed 422mg of pottasium that day.

Since there are 7days in a week, the person will consume 422 × 7 = 2954 mg of pottasium that week.

The question asks for the total pottasium intake in grams for that week, hence, we need to convert 2954 milligrams to grams.

1000mg = 1 g

Hence, 2954mg will be 2954/1000

= 2.954grams

Therefore, 2.954grams of pottasium are ingested by that person that week.

Which statement correctly describes a sample of gas confined in a sealed container?
Aleksandr [31]
The correct option is 2.
Gases has some properties which are specific to them, one of these properties is that, gases usually take the shape and the volume of any container in which they are confined. This means that, when a gas is sealed up in a container, the gas will fill up all the space inside the container.
Thus, gases have no definite shape and no definite volume, they take the shape and the volume of their containers. Also, the forces of attraction between gas molecules are very weak, that is why their particles are far apart.<span />

Empirical formula of ch2 and molar formula of 56 grams what is molecular formula
attashe74 [19]
<span>One mole of carbon weighs 12 grams and one mole of hydrogen weighs 1 gram. Therefore, one mole of CH2 weighs 12 + 1 + 1 = 14 grams.

56 divided by 14 = 4

Therefore, you need 4 "moles" of CH2 to equal 56 grams of the unknown substance. To get the equivalent of 4 "moles" of CH2 you need one mole of C4H8.


Hope this helps :)
