The amount of energy at each trophic level decreases as it moves through an ecosystem. As little as 10 percent of the energy at any trophic level is transferred to the next level; the rest is lost largely through metabolic processes as heat.

A chemistry teacher is able to grade chemistry labs at a rate of 5 labs for every 3 minutes. They need to grade 165 labs how man
PIT_PIT [208]

Answer:

1.65hr

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Number of labs  = 5 labs

 Time taken  = 3 minutes

Unknown:

Time taken in hours to grade 165 labs  = ?

Solution:

Let us find the rate of the teacher;

  Rate  = \frac{number of labs}{time}  

  Insert the parameters and solve;

   Rate  = \frac{5}{3}   = 1.67labs/min

Now;

   Time to grade 165 labs  = \frac{number of labs}{rate}  

   Time to grade 165 labs  = \frac{165}{1.67}   = 98.8min

  Since;

               60min = 1hr

               98.8min  = \frac{98.8}{60}   = 1.65hr

Laura is supplied with 5 bolts (B) and 12 nuts (N). She attached the nuts to the bolts in a 2:1 ratio (N2B). Which of the reacta
Andrews [41]

Answer:

The bolts will run out first, so these will limit how much product can be formed.

(option C is correct)

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Number of bolts = 5

Number of nuts = 12

ratio N:B = 2:1

Step 2

Since the ratio N:B is 2:1 we have 2 nuts for each bolt

When we have 2 bolts we have 4 nuts

When we have 3 bolts we have 6 nuts

When we have 4 bolts we have 8 nuts

When we have 5 bolts we have 10 nuts

We don't have more bolts, but there are still 2 nuts left. This means the bolts will run out first, so these will limit how much product can be formed.

(option C is correct)

Automotive air bags inflate when sodium azide decomposes explosively to its constituent elements:
andrezito [222]

Answer: 1.875 moles

Explanation:

2 NaN3(s) → 2 Na(s) + 3 N2(g)

From the equation above, Sodium azide has a chemical formula of NaN3 while nitrogen gas has a chemical formula of N2.

Therefore, If on decomposition

2 moles of NaN3 produce 3 moles of N2

1.25 mol of NaN3 produce Z moles of N2

To get the value of Z, cross multiply

Z x 2 moles = 3 moles x 1.25 moles

2 moles•Z = 3.75 moles²

Divide both sides by 2 moles

2 moles•Z/2 moles = 3.75 moles²/2 moles

Z = 1.875 moles

Thus, 1.875 moles of N2 are produced by the decomposition of 1.25 mol of sodium azide
