Polyethylene or Polythene is one of the most common plastics used all around the world. It is very widely produced, with around 80 million tonnes every single year!

It is used for the following

  • Plastic bags
  • Plastic films
  • Geomembranes (low permeable sheets that act like a barrier or a line separating two substances to control fluids)
  • Dustbin crates
  • Water pipes
  • Plastic bottles
  • Packaging

What percent of I-125 has decayed if there are 37.5g of the original sample left?
garri49 [273]

Answer:

[(x-37.5)/x]*100%

62.5%  (assuming the original sample weighs 100.0g)

Explanation:

Let's say that the original sample is x

Mass of I-125 which has decayed: x-37.5

Percentage of decayed mass: [(x-37.5)/x]*100%

Please recheck, for this may not be the correct answer

A hockey puck moving at 28 m/s is caught by an 80.00 kg man who was at rest the man and puck moved together after the collision.
hodyreva [135]

Answer: The final velocity of both man and hokey puck will be 0.056 m/s.

Explanation: We are given 2 objects and are undergoing collision. The final velocity of both the objects is same. To calculate the final velocity, we will use the principle of conservation of momentum.

This principle states that when the objects that are colliding makes up a system, then the total momentum will remain constant if no external force is applied on it.

Sum of Initial momentum of two objects = Sum of Final momentum of the two objects

Mathematically,

m_1u_1+m_2u_2=m_1v_1+m_2v_2     ...(1)

where,

m_1,u_1\text{ and }v_1 are the mass, initial velocity and final velocity of the first object.

m_2,u_2\text{ and }v_2 are the mass, initial velocity and final velocity of the second object.

Here, man and hockey puck are moving together after the collision, so their final velocities will be same.

m_1=80.00kg\\m_2=0.16kg\\u_1=0m/s\\u_2=28m/s\\v_1=v_2=V=?m/s

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

80(0)+0.16(28)=(0.80+0.16)V

V=0.056m/s

The final velocity of man and hockey puck is 0.056 m/s.

C3H8 + 5 O2 → 3 CO2 + 4 H2O
Nataly [62]

Answer:

¹/3 C3H8(g) + ⁵/3 O2(g)

Explanation:

The coefficient before every molecule is representative of the number of moles. We can represent it in ration form so as to calculate the question;

C₃H₈(g) + 5 O₂(g) → 3 CO₂(g) + 4 H₂O(l) means;

For every 1 mole of C₃H₈(g) and 5 moles of  O₂(g) produces  3 moles of  CO₂(g) and 4 moles of H₂O(l).

Therefore to produce 1.00 mole of CO₂(g);

We represent it in ratio;

C₃H₈(g) : CO₂(g)

1  :     3
