1.64 + 4.66 = 6.3
1.64/6.3 = 0.2603174603 = 26%

Answer : The percentage of salt in the mixture is 73.65 %

Explanation : Given,

Mass of salt = 1.64 lb

Mass of water = 4.66 lb

First we have to calculate the mass of mixture.

Mass of mixture = Mass of salt + Mass of water

Mass of mixture = 1.64 + 4.66 = 6.3 lb

Now we have to calculate the percentage of salt in the mixture.

Formula used :

\% \text{ of salt}=\frac{\text{Mass of salt}}{\text{Mass of mixture}}\times 100

Now put all the given vales in this formula, we get:

\% \text{ of salt}=\frac{4.64lb}{6.3lb}\times 100=73.65\%

Therefore, the percentage of salt in the mixture is 73.65 %

Why is ice cream a mixture
kvasek [131]

Ice is a mixture and it can be a compound at the same time. A mixture is when you have to substance's put together fro example you can mix salt and sugar together. But a compound is when two different elements or molecules are combined. Ice cream is a mixture or cream and sugar mainly.

Identify each of the following mixtures as either homogeneous or heterogeneous and as a solution, a suspension, or a colloid.
Sergeeva-Olga [200]

Blood.

<span>Blood is heterogeneous because it has corpuscles (blood cells and platelets) physically suspended in blood plasma.   Blood plasma and the corpuscles have different properties and can be separated by methods such as centrifugation. Also, blood is considered a colloid suspension because it has the properties of both a colloid and a suspension. This is because the blood plasma acts as a colloid. More so, if blood was left to settle,then the blood cells would collect at the bottom hence taking the characteristic of a suspension. </span>

<span>Salad dressing.</span>

<span>Depending on the type of salad, it can either be a heterogeneous or homogeneous mixture. If the salad dressing is only of vinegar or any other oil, then it is a homogenous mixture. However, if it involves a mixture of vinegar and other oils, pepper, herbs, and etcetera, then it is a heterogeneous mixture</span>

The ideal gas constant, R has several different values that could be used. Which quantity causes these differences? pressure tem
Blababa [14]

Answer : The correct option is, pressure.

Explanation :

The ideal gas equation is,

PV=nRT

where,

P = pressure of the gas

V = volume of the gas

n = number of moles of gas

T = temperature of the gas

R = gas constant

The value of 'R' has several different values which are :

R=0.08205L.atm/mol.K

R=8.3145L.kPa/mol.K

R=8.3145J/mol.K 

R=1.987cal/mol.K

R=0.08314L.bar/mol.K

That means, the value of 'R' is different due the change in the pressure value and all the variables (temperature, volume and moles) are constant.

Hence, the correct option is, pressure.

Brainliest! a. Write a short historical account of the discovery of the Avogadro’s number.
kvv77 [185]

Answer:

a. Amadeo Avogadro (1776-1856) was the author of Avogadro's Hypothesis in 1811, which, together with Gay-Lussac's Law of Combining Volumes, was used by Stanislao Cannizzaro to elegantly remove all doubt about the establishment of the atomic weight scale at the Karlsruhe Conference of 1860.  The name "Avogadro's Number" is just an honorary name attached to the calculated value of the number of atoms, molecules, etc. in a gram mole of any chemical substance. Of course if we used some other mass unit for the mole such as "pound mole", the "number" would be different than 6.022 x 1023.

b. The first person to have calculated the number of molecules in any mass of substance was Josef Loschmidt, (1821-1895), an Austrian high school teacher, who in 1865, using the new Kinetic Molecular Theory (KMT) calculated the number of molecules in one cubic centimeter of gaseous substance under ordinary conditions of temperature of pressure, to be somewhere around 2.6 x 1019 molecules. This is usually known as "Loschmidt's Constant.

Task 2

a.

Percent composition is the percent by mass of each element present in a compound. Water, H2O, is the first example. One mole of water is 18.0152 grams. In that compound, there are two moles of H atoms and 2 x 1.008 = 2.016 grams. That's how many grams of hydrogen are present in one mole of water. this is an example. i don't know what you are describing though. i need more info for this question

b. 6.022 to 6.023 x 10^23

c. i don't know what this one is since there is nothing to describe the unknown liquid.

d. Yes a killer, but not a specific person
