Answer:
The first one.
Explanation:
When comparing two fractions with variables like this, it's important to get to the same denominator in order to compare apples with apples and then be able to do not only comparisons but also perform additions/subtractions.
Question is which denominator to use and how to reach it.
In this case, the question and the answer choices do the work for you. The question asks which one is the LEAST common denominator, and the answers show denominators x² and 4x². The smallest of these is x², however, we can't simplify the first fraction to get to the x² denominator, so we'll go for the 4x².
So, the first fraction has already the correct denominator (4x²), we just have to transform the second one.
We multiply it by 1, expressed in a different way. Since we're multiplying by one, we're not affecting the value, just the way it looks.
Let's do it!, to get the denominator to go from x² to 4x², we need to multiply it by 4... so we'll multiply by 4/4 (which is 1, neutral for the multiplication).
And now you have both fractions on the same denominator, without having changed their value, just their looks
Answer:
1. Hydrogen
Explanation:
These planets contain liquid hydrogen in their interior, while the earth has liquid iron in it.
When liquid hydrogen is in tremendous pressure enviroments, the electrons that make up each atom of this element end up "jumping" to other atoms. These "jumps" allow liquid hydrogen to behave like a metal.
In addition, with the constant energy released by the nucleus of planets like Jupiter and Saturn, as well as their rotations, the liquid hydrogen receives induction of currents, giving rise to extremely powerful magnetic fields.
Answer:
295.7 mL of 24% trichloroacetic acid (tca) is needed .
Explanation:
Let the volume of 24% trichloroacetic acid solution be x
Volume of required 10% trichloroacetic acid solution =8 bottles of 3 ounces
= 24 ounces = 709.68 mL
(1 ounces = 29.57 mL)
Amount of trichloroacetic acid in 24% solution of x volume of solution will be equal to amount of trichloroacetic acid in 10% solution of volume 709.68 mL.
x = 295.7 mL
295.7 mL of 24% trichloroacetic acid (tca) is needed .
Answer:
Option b, The change in free energy of the reaction (ΔG)
Explanation:
Gibbs free energy is a measure of amount of usable energy in the system.
It is related with enthalpy (H), entropy (S) and temprature (T) as:
G = H - TS
The Gibbs free energy change (ΔG) provide spontaneity of a chemical reaction.
If ΔG is negative, then reaction is spontaneous that means reaction is moving towards forward direction.
If ΔG is positive, then reaction is non-spontaneous that means reaction is moving in backward direction.
If ΔG is zero, then reaction is at equilibrium.
Change in enthalpy only gives informtion about heat involed in a chemical reaction, it does not give information about direction of the reaction.
So, among the given options, option b is correct.
