Answer:

22.7%

Explanation:

Given that last year stock for company A was $7200

The stock for company B last year was worth $3510

Stock in company A decreased by 24%

This means the new value of stock for company A became;

(100-24)/100 *$7200

76/100*$7200

0.76*7200 =$5472

Stock in company B decreased by 20%

This means the new value of stock for company B became;

(100-20)/100 *$3510

80/100*$3510

0.8*$3510

$2808

Original investors stock value was = $7200+$3510 =$10710

New investors stock value is = $5472+$2808=$8280

Decrease in value of stock = $10710-$8280 =$2430

percentage decrease in stock value = decrease in stock/original value of stock *100%

=2430/10710 *100 =22.689

=22.7%

A sample of a gas at 25°C has a volume of 150 mL when its pressure is 0.947 atm. What will the temperature of the gas be at a pr
dezoksy [38]

Answer:

25°C

Explanation:

Combined Gas Law (P₁V₁)/T₁ = (P₂V₂)/T₂

(0.947 atm)(150 mL)/25°C = (0.987 atm)(144mL)/T₂

5.682 = 142.128/T₂

T₂ = 142.128/5.682

T₂ = 25.0137272756°C = 25°C

You have 7.86 x 10^23 molecules of NaCl. This would be equal to ___ grams of NaCl.
sergij07 [2.7K]

7.86 \times 10 {}^{23} atoms \\  \frac{7.86}{6.022}  \times  \frac{10 {}^{23} }{ {10}^{23} }   = 1.305\: moles

1.305 × (23+35.5) = 76.34 grams

1. How is different kind of molecules different? And similar?
dexar [7]

Answer:

1.Molecules are made of atoms. So different molecules can have different (or same) number of atoms they are made of.Different atoms are made of different number of protons of neutrons in the nucleus (also electrons around the nucleus but they are very small even compared to atom and don’t add up for volume or mass) therefore their radius and mass are different.

2.Chromatography works because of differences in the properties of molecules in materials.some molecules differ in shape and size. These differences in molecular properties allow scientists to separate compounds into individual molecules using chromatography.

hope this helps

Which has more boiling points between macromolecule and ionic bonding
puteri [66]

Answer:

Ionic bonding has more boiling point

Explanation:

The melting and boiling points of molecular compounds are generally quite low compared to those of ionic compounds. This is because the energy required to disrupt the intermolecular forces between molecules is far less than the energy required to break the ionic bonds in a crystalline ionic compound. Ionic solids typically melt at high temperatures and boil at even higher temperatures. For example, sodium chloride melts at 801 °C and boils at 1413 °C. (As a comparison, the molecular compound water melts at 0 °C and boils at 100 °C.). The water solubility of molecular compounds is variable and depends primarily on the type of intermolecular forces involved.
