In pure water, all of the molecules in the liquid are water molecules so the mole fraction is 1 (100 % H2O, 55 mol/L). In sea water, the concentration of water molecules in the solution is less than that of pure water so the vapor pressure of sea water is also lower.
There are a total of 4 elements
Answer: 250
Explanation:
You work this problem by using proportions.
A proportion is the equalization of two ratios.
Here you assume that the ratio of fish with tags to total fish that you catch is the same than the ratio of fish with tags to total fish in the pond.
Mathematically:
- 5 fish with tag / 25 fish = 50 fish with tag / x
Solve for x:
- Multiplication property of equality: x × 5 = 50 × 25
- Division property of equality: x = 50 × 25 / 5
- Result: 250
