The organism was once a clam and most likely became a fossil after being buried by silt in its watery environment after death. Might need more clarification on what exact answer you need.

You already know what type of fossil it is. It is a sea animal which means you already know the general location of the animal which would of been the beach. It is possible to determine how it became a fossil since you can assume that it was either washed up on shore or buried by another animal. Clams generally live for about 400 years so in order for it to be a fossil it would have had to of been dead a long time ago which would be more than 400 years. It could of been around in the Silurian period or the Devonian period since that is when clams practically ruled the oceans. 252 million years ago is when clam like organisms were dominant so you have the general time it could of been around.

Moles of phosphorous in 15-35-15 fertilizer in 10g
guapka [62]

<span>The composition of a fertilizer is usually express in NPK number. NPK number is in terms of Percent by mass of the said element which are Nitrogen, Phosphorus and Potassium. A 15-35-15 fertilizer has 15% Nitrogen, 35% Phosphorous, and 15% Potassium by mass. If you have 10 g of this fertilizer, to get the number of moles of phosphorus, you multiply the mass by 35%, which is equal to 10*0.35 or 3.5 g phosphorus. Then you divide the calculated mass of phosphorous by its molar mass which is 30.97 g/mol. Therefore, you have 3.5/30.97 which is equal to 0.1130 mol Phosphorus. This is the amount of Phosphorus in moles in the fertilizer.</span>

it is 50%

Explanation:

62.9x50=3145

64.9x50=3245

instrucions classify the following reactions as synthesis, decomposition,single replacement, double replacement, or combustion.
My name is Ann [436]

Answer:

There are no specific equations but here what i can give you:

1. Synthesis -- A synthesis reaction is a chemical change in which two or more substances react to form a single new substance.

In all synthesis reactions, there is a single product that is a compound!

2. Decomposition -- A decomposition reaction is a chemical change in which a single compound breaks down into two or more simpler products. (This is the opposite of synthesis reactions!)

Most decomposition reactions require energy in the form of heat, light, and electricity.

3. Single Replacement -- A single-replacement reaction is a chemical change in which one element replaces a second element in a compound. You can identify a single-replacement reaction by noting that both the reactants and the products consist of an element and a compound.

4. Double Replacement -- A double-replacement reaction is a chemical change involving an exchange of positive ions between two compounds.

For a double replacement reactions to occur, one of the following is usually true:

- One of the products is only slightly soluble and precipitates from solutions.

- One of the products is a gas.

- One product is a molecular compound such as water.

5. Combustion -- A combustion reactions is a chemical change in which an element or a compound reacts with oxygen, often producing energy in the form of heat or light.

A combustion reactant always involves oxygen as a reactant. (If the supply of oxygen is limited, then the combustion will not be complete.)

The other reactant is a hydrocarbon, which is a compound composed of hydrogen and carbon and the complete combustion of a hydrocarbon produces CO2 and H2O.

Hydrocarbons include methane, propane, and butane.

I really hope this helps you!
