570/8.5=67.0 58... you only have to take the natural part, si the answer is 67 students

In the particular experiment, each student uses 8.5 cm of ribbon.

The total length of the Mg ribbon present is 570 cm

so to find how many students can use the ribbon

number of students = total length of the ribbon / length each student uses

number of students = 570 cm / 8.5 cm/student = 67. 1 students

since it should be a whole number it should be 67

therefore 67 students can use the ribbon

Answer:

(a) See below

(b) 103.935 °F; 102.235 °F

Explanation:

The equation relating the temperature to time is

T = T_{0} + \Delta T\left (1 - e^{-t/\tau} \right )

1. Calculate the thermometer readings after  0.5 min and 1 min

(a) After 0.5 min

\begin{array}{rcl}T & = & T_{0} + \Delta T\left (1 - e^{-t/\tau} \right )\\ & = & 100 + 10\left (1 - e^{-0.5/1} \right )\\ & = & 100 + 10\left (1 - e^{-0.5} \right )\\ & = & 100 + 10 (1 - 0.6065)\\ & = & 100 + 10(0.3935)\\ & = & 100 + 3.935\\ & = & 103.935\,^{\circ}F\\\end{array}

(b) After 1 min

\begin{array}{rcl}T & = & T_{0} + \Delta T\left (1 - e^{-t/\tau} \right )\\ & = & 100 + 10\left (1 - e^{-1/1} \right )\\ & = & 100 + 10\left (1 - e^{-1} \right )\\ & = & 100 + 10 (1 - 0.3679)\\ & = & 100 + 10(0.6321)\\ & = & 100 + 6.321\\ & = & 106.321\,^{\circ}F\\\end{array}

2. Calculate the thermometer reading after 2.0 min

T₀ =106.321 °F

ΔT = 100 - 106.321 °F = -6.321 °F

  t = t - 1, because the cooling starts 1 min late

\begin{array}{rcl}T & = & T_{0} + \Delta T\left (1 - e^{-(t - 1)/\tau} \right )\\ & = & 106.321 - 6.321\left (1 - e^{-(2 - 1)/1} \right )\\ & = & 106.321 - 6.321\left (1 - e^{-1} \right )\\ & = & 106.321 - 6.321 (1 - 0.3679)\\ & = & 106.321 - 6.321 (0.6321)\\ & = & 106.321 - 3.996\\ & = & 102.325\,^{\circ}F\\\end{array}

3. Plot the temperature readings as a function of time.

The graphs are shown below.

What is the product when magnesium reacts with nitrogen? Mg(s) + N2(g) → Mg2N3(s) Mg3N(s) Mg3N2(s) MgN3(s)
bixtya [17]
Look at the periodic table to find the charge on atoms.
 Magnesium is +2 and Nitrogen is -3. Since there are two nitrogen charge 2*-3 = -6 there needs to be 3 Mg then (3*2+ = 6+) to pair with the two nitrogen.
3 Mg(+2) + 2 N(-3) = Mg3N2
