Answer:

A)You must work 2 shifts to wash 10 loads of laundry

B)You can wash 15 loads pf laundry if you work for 3 shifts

C) each shift will pay for 3.75 loads of laundry if the cost per load rises to 16 quarters

Explanation:

Given:

amount  earned =   12 dollars/hour

Duration for one shift = 75 minutes

Amount needed for Laundry = 12 quarters/load.

A. How many shifts must you work if you wish to wash 10 loads of laundry

To wash 10 loads, you will be requiring

=> 10 \times 12 \text{quarters}

=> 120 quarters

1 quarter = 0.25 dollars---------------------------------(1)

120 quarters

= 120 \times 0.25 \text{ dollars}

= 30 dollars

You need 30 dollars for washing 10 loads

In one hour i,e 60 minutes you earn=  12 dollars

In one minute the amount earned will be

= \frac {12}{60}

= 0.2 dollar-------------------------------------------------------(2)

Now to earn 30 dollars you have to work for

=30 \times 0.2 minutes

= 150 minutes

Thus the number of shifts will be  

= \frac{150}{75}

= 2 shifts

B. How many loads of laundry can you wash if you work 3 shifts

We Know that 1 shift =  75 minutes

So 3 shifts = 75 \times 3 = 225 minutes

From (2),

In 1 minute = 0.2 dollars is earned

So in  225 minutes =  225 \ times 0.2 = 45 dollar is earned

45 dollar = 45 \times 4 = 180 quarters

You can wash 1 load with 12 quarters

With 180 quarters you can wash = \frac{180}{12} = 15 loads

C. How many loads of laundry will each shift pay for if the cost per load rises to 16 quarters

Cost per load = 16 quarters

From (1)

16 quarters = 0.25 \times 16  = 4 dollars per load

From (2) In 1 shift the amount earned will be

=> 75 \times 0.2

=15 dollars

With 4 dollars you can wash 1 load

So with 15 dollars = \frac{15}{4} = 3.75 loads

The molar solubility of silver bromide, AgBr in pure water is 0.0007350 mol/L. What is the
gayaneshka [121]

Answer:

0.000000540

Explanation:

Step 1: Make an ICE chart for the solution of AgBr

"S" represents the molar solubility of AgBr

        AgBr(s) ⇄ Ag⁺(aq) + Br⁻(aq)

I                           0             0

C                          +S          +S

E                           S             S

Step 2: Write the expression for the solubility product constant (Ksp)

Ksp = [Ag⁺] [Br⁻] = S × S

Ksp = S² = (0.0007350)² = 0.000000540

lara31 [8.8K]
Neil Bohr contributed towards science in many ways, but his contributions did not include the charge of an electron. Neil Bohr recognized a relationship between the chemical properties of a substance and the number of valence shell electrons. Moreover, he introduced the atomic model in 1913 and provided the liquid-drop model to explain nuclear fusion.

How many valence electrons does the Lewis structure for a chlorine atom show
ohaa [14]

Answer: D

Explanation:

Chlorine is in group 7 or (VII) in Roman numerals, which means it has 7 balance electrons. It only needs one electron to become stable, hence it is next to the noble gases

Alla [95]

The question is incomplete, complete question is :

In an organic structure, you can classify each of the carbons as follows: Primary carbon (1°) = carbon bonded to just 1 other carbon group Secondary carbon (2°) = carbon bonded to 2 other carbon groups Tertiary carbon (3°) = carbon bonded to 3 other carbon groups Quaternary carbon (4°) = carbon bonded to 4 other carbon groups How many carbons of each classification are in the structure below? How many total carbons are in the structure? How many primary carbons are in the structure? How many secondary carbons are in the structure? How many tertiary carbons are in the structure? How many quaternary carbons are in the structure?

Structure is given in an image?

Answer:

There are 10 carbon atoms in the given structures out of which 6 are 1° , 1 is 2° , 2 are 3° and 1 is 4°.

Explanation:

Total numbers of carbon = 10

Number of primary carbons that is carbon joined to just single carbon atom = 6

Number of secondary carbons that is carbon joined to two carbon atoms = 1

Number of tertiary carbons that is carbon joined to three carbon atoms = 2

Number of quartenary carbons that is carbon joined to four carbon atoms = 1

So, there are 10 carbon atoms in the given structures out of which 6 are 1° , 1 is 2° , 2 are 3° and 1 is 4°.

Write an equilibrium expression for each chemical equation involving one or more solid or liquid reactants or products.
Alex_Xolod [135]

Answer:

a.

Keq=\frac{[HCO_3^-][OH^-]}{[CO_3^{2-}]}

b.

Keq=[O_2]^3

c.

Keq=\frac{[H_3O^+][F^-]}{[HF]}

d.

Keq=\frac{[NH_4^+][OH^-]}{[NH_3]}

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, for the attached reactions, it turns out possible for us to write the equilibrium expressions by knowing any liquid or solid would be not-included in the equilibrium expression as shown below, with the general form products/reactants:

a.

Keq=\frac{[HCO_3^-][OH^-]}{[CO_3^{2-}]}

b.

Keq=[O_2]^3

c.

Keq=\frac{[H_3O^+][F^-]}{[HF]}

d.

Keq=\frac{[NH_4^+][OH^-]}{[NH_3]}

Regards!
