Answer:

International system. The SI unit for specific heat is joule per kelvin per kilogram (J/K/kg, J/(kg K), J K−1 kg−1, etc.). Since an increment of temperature of one degree Celsius is the same as an increment of one kelvin, that is the same as joule per degree Celsius per kilogram (J/°C/kg).

Y = 57.15 − 0.5 X If Y equals 5 , what is X ?<br><br> Then is Y=3, what is X?

Fiesta28 [93]

When y equals 5, x is 104.3

When y equals 3 then x is 108.3

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

<em><u>Given expression is:</u></em>

$y = 57.15 - 0.5x$

<h3><u>If y equals 5 what is x ?</u></h3>

Substitute y = 5 in given expression

5 = 57.15 - 0.5(x)

5 = 57.15 - 0.5x

0.5x = 57.15 - 5

0.5x = 52.15

Divide both sides by 0.5

x = 104.3

Thus when y equals 5, x is 104.3

Substitute y = 3 in given expression

3 = 57.15 - 0.5(x)

3 = 57.15 - 0.5x

0.5x = 57.15 - 3

0.5x = 54.15

Divide both sides by 0.5

x = 108.3

Thus when y equals 3 then x is 108.3

Travka [436]

Answer
147.06N
Explanation:
MA=Load/Effort
6.8=1000/x
Finding x you make x the subject and divide 1000 by 6.8 which is 147.06N

How to balance barium and oxygen yield barium oxide

olga55 [171]

Barium : $Ba^{+2}$ with +2 being the charge
Oxygen : $O^{-2}$ with -2 being the charge

The given equation can be written as:
Ba + O = BaO

Since the sum charges of Barium and Oxygen equals 0, there is no need to add subscripts.

Both Ba and O appear on the left and right side of the equation once, so there is no need to add a coefficient.

Ba + O = BaO is balanced

Mg + 2H2O -----> Mg (OH)2 + H2<br><br><br> Write it in word problem

diamong [38]

The word problem format to the task given above is: When magnesium reacts with steam, it produces magnesium hydroxide and liberate hydrogen gas.

<h3>How magnesium hydroxide is formed?</h3>

It happens that magnesium is an alkali earth metal and react with water in the gaseous state to librate hydrogen gas, when this reaction occurs, it results in the formation of magnesium hydroxide.

The chemical equation between magnesium and water is given below:

Mg + 2H₂O -----> Mg (OH)₂ + H₂

So therefore, we can accurately deduced that magnesium hydroxide is produced when magnesium is disolved in water.
