Answer:

440mt/p gallons

Explanation:

We are told that one gallon of paint covers an area of p square feet. Knowing this then, the question becomes how much paint is needed to cover a stripe that is t inches wide and m miles long.

Let us first use the dimensions of the stripe to find how much area that is in square feet. A stripe is rectangular so we will calculate the area as follows:

Area of stripe = width x length

                       = t inches x m miles              (we need to convert both to feet)

                       = (t inches x 1 ft/12 inches) x (m miles x 5280 ft/1 mi)

                       =440mt square feet

ow we can find out how much paint will be needed by using ratios

p square feet : 1 gallon

440mt square feet : x

x = 440mt/p gallons

Describe some acidic oxides that can be prepared by thermal decomposition of nitrates and carbonates
azamat

When calcium carbonate is heated, it breaks down to form calcium oxide and carbon dioxide.

Thermal decomposition is the process in which heat is required.

It is also known as thermolysis.

It is processed in which a compound breaks into two or more products when the heat is supplied.

This reaction is used for the production of oxygen.

This reaction is also used for production of acidic as well as basic oxides.

CaCO3 on thermal decomposition gives:

CaCO3→CaO+CO2

CaO→ Basic oxide.

CO2→ Acidic oxide.

What is the mass of 1.6 mol of aluminum atom?
PIT_PIT [208]
Answer = 43.2

Because to find the mass you multiply the amount of moles ( 1.6) by the mass of the element ( mass of aluminium is 27) so
1.6 x 27 = 43.2g

Hope this helps
