We can use a ratio to solve this question. Lets refer to the amount formed by the formula as a serving
1 serving needs 3/8 gal
We want to create 7/9 servings extra, so
1 + 7/9 = 16/7
1 : 3/8
16/7 : x
1/(3/8) = (16/7) / x
8 / 3 = 16x / 7
x = 7/6
He needs to use 7/6 gallons of water.

By mistake, you added salt instead of sugar to the<br> oil. How can you remove the salt?
Ghella [55]

Explanation:

To remove the salt from the oil, I will add water to dissolve the salt from it.

Oil is an organic molecule that is non-polar

Salt is polar ionic compound

Salt will not dissolve in the oil.

  • Take the mixture.
  • Add water to it.
  • Water and oil are immiscible
  • Shake the new heterogeneous mixture vigorously.
  • leave to settle.
  • Oil will come on top of the water.
  • You can skim off the oil layer on top.
  • Then heat the water and salt solution.
  • This leaves the oil behind.

Plz help..<br> How to name alcohols...
earnstyle [38]

Answer:

Alcohols are usually named by the first procedure and are designated by an -ol suffix, as in ethanol, CH3CH2OH (note that a locator number is unnecessary on a two-carbon chain). On longer chains the location of the hydroxyl group determines chain numbering. For example: (CH3)2C=CHCH(OH)CH3 is 4-methyl-3-penten-2-ol.10

Why must power plants spend so much money and be so cautious in dealing with these materials?
shepuryov [24]
If you are referring to nuclear power plants and radioactive materials, then there is a high necessity to be cautious and stay safe because only by being safe you can prevent accidents like those caused in Ukraine and Japan. Unlike other types of power plants whose destruction in case of an accident can relatively easily be contained, nuclear power plants are extremely difficult to manage if things go out of hand since you can destroy the air around it, the water, the food by ruining the soil, and many other things.
