Answer:
1) Salts X and Y
2) The solubility of the salts
3) a) The solvent
b) The solvent temperature
Explanation:
1) The independent variable is the variable that is suspected to be the cause of the subject of the investigation
The given investigation is meant to investigate the solubility of different salts
Therefore, the solubility is expected to be dependent on the type of salt, and the independent variable is the type of salt, X or Y
2) The dependent variable is the effect meant to be observed in the investigation, which is the solubility of the salt in water at room temperature
3) The control variables are the variables which are held constant during the investigation, including;
a) The solvent used if the investigation; water
b) The temperature of the solvent; Room temperature
The number of half -lives that has passed after 105 hours for krypton-79 that has half-life of 35 hours is calculated as below
if 1 half life = 35 hours
what about 105 hours = ? half-lives
= (1 half life x105 hours) /35 hours = 3 half-lives has passed after 105 hours
