Answer:

Grams of fat would be labeled in 1.3 pounds of ground beef are :

= 117.94 grams

Explanation:

STEP 1: Convert pound into grams:

1 pound = 453.6 grams (learn this)

STEP 2 : Calculate the number of grams in 1.3 pound.

Multiply the number by 1.3

1.3 pound = 1.3 x 453.6 grams

1.3 pound = 589.68 grams

STEP 3: Calculate the mass in 20 % percentage of sample.

$20\% of\ x=x\times \frac{20}{100}$

Here x = 589.68 grams

$20\%\ of\ 589.68 =589.68\times \frac{20}{100}$

$20\%\ of\ 589.68 =117.93grams$

= 117.94 grams

During science lab, Carl notices that when he adds water to his solid sample of anhydrous copper

Bond [772]

Answer:

The dissociation of copper sulfate into ions is an exothermic chemical reaction that releases heat into the surroundings.

Explanation:

Some of the potential energy stored in the solid sample of anhydrous copper sulfate is released as heat as the sample dissolves and dissociates into ions in the water. This is due to the large lattice energy of the crystalline copper sulfate.

What makes an inference different from a quess?

frosja888 [35]

Answer:

Explanation:

Inferences are not based on anything from the text while guesses are made only using the text. Inferences are based on evidence in the text while guesses are not. Inferences are made by only using major details from the text while guesses only use minor details.

How many grams of a stock solution that is 92.5 percent H2SO4 by mass would be needed to make 250 grams of a 35.0 percent by mas

IrinaVladis [17]

94.6 g. You must use 94.6 g of 92.5 % H_2SO_4 to make 250 g of 35.0 % H_2SO_4.

We can use a version of the dilution formula

m_1C_1 = m_2C_2

where

m represents the mass and

C represents the percent concentrations

We can rearrange the formula to get

m_2= m_1 × (C_1/C_2)

m_1 = 250 g; C_1 = 35.0 %

m_2 = ?; _____C_2 = 92.5 %

∴ m_2 = 250 g × (35.0 %/92.5 %) = 94.6 g

How do I answer and do this

Alecsey [184]

a) When the reaction takes place a yellow precipitate will be formed.

b) The law of conservation of mass is true.

Explanation:

a) When a lead nitrate solution is mixed with a potassium chromate solution, a yellow precipitate containing lead forms according to the equation:

$Pb(NO_3)_2 (aq) + K_2CrO_4 (aq)$ → $2 KNO_3 (aq) + PbCrO_4(s).$

b) Law of conservation of mass for the given reaction is true.

From the given table we know the mass of reactants and its products.

Law of conservation of mass is a principle when a reaction takes place in a closed system, the mass of the products and reactants in the system doesn't change.

⇒The sum of the mass of the reactants = The sum of the mass of the products.

The sum of the reactants = 128.71+128.97.

= 257.68 g.

The sum of the products = 154.10+103.58.

= 257.68 g.

Thus law of conservation of mass is true for the above reaction.
