The correct option is A.
The law of definite proportion states that a given chemical compound always contains its component elements in fixed ratio irrespective of the source they are obtain from.
For instance, water is made up of two atoms of hydrogen and one atom of oxygen. Water can not be formed in any other way. Combining the oxygen and the hydrogen in another ratio will give us another thing not water.

What substance is present in a solution consisting solely of electrolytes?
Debora [2.8K]
Electrolytes are substances which are capable of producing a solution that has the ability to conduct electricity. These electrolytes are formed from the dissociation of salts into ions. The positive ions are named cations while the negative ions are termed anions. 

Hence, the answer to these item is SALT. Salt are substances produced by the reaction of cations and anions.

Avoiding an accident when driving can depend on reaction time. That time, measured in seconds from the moment the driver see dan
crimeas [40]

Answer:

The answer is below

Explanation:

A normal model is represented as (μ, σ). Therefore for (1.5, 0.18), the mean (μ) = 1.5 and the standard deviation (σ) = 0.18

The z score shows by how many standard deviations the raw score is above or below the mean. It is given as:

z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

a) For x < 1.35 s

z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}\\\\z=\frac{1.35-1.5}{0.18}=-0.83

From the normal distribution table, the percent of drivers have a reaction time less than 1.35 seconds = P(x < 1.35) = P(z < -0.83) = 0.2033 = 20.33%

b) For x > 1.9 s

z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}\\\\z=\frac{1.9-1.5}{0.18}=2.22

From the normal distribution table, the percent of drivers have a reaction time greater than 1.9 seconds = P(x > 1.9) = P(z > 2.22) = 1 - P(z<2.22) = 1 - 0.9868 = 0.0132 = 1.32%

c) For x = 1.45

z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}\\\\z=\frac{1.45-1.5}{0.18}=-0.28

For x = 1.75

z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}\\\\z=\frac{1.75-1.5}{0.18}=1.39

From the normal distribution table, P(1.45 < x < 1.75) = P(-0.28 < z < 1.39) = P(z < 1.39) - P(z< - 0.28) = 0.9177 - 0.3897 = 0.528 = 52.8%

d) A percentage of 10% corresponds to a z score of -1.28

z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}\\\\-1.28=\frac{x-1.5}{0.18}\\\\x-1.5=-0.2034\\\\x=1.27

e) P(z < z1) - P(z< -z1) = 60%

P(z < z1) - P(z< -z1) = 0.6

P(z < -z1) = 1 - P(z < z1)

P(z<z1) - (1 - P(z < z1)) = 0.6

2P(z<z1) - 1= 0.6

2P(z<z1) = 1.6

P(z<z1) = 0.8

From the z table, z1 = 0.85

0.85=\frac{x-1.5}{0.18}and-0.85=\frac{x -1.5}{0.18}  \\\\x=1.65 \ and\ x=1.35

The reaction time between 1.35 and 1.65 seconds

Which statements accurately describe Dmitri Mendeleev’s contributions to the development of the periodic table? Check all that a
Varvara68 [4.7K]

Answer:

  • <em><u>Mendeleev produced the first orderly arrangement of known elements.</u></em>

  • <em><u>Mendeleev used patterns to predict undiscovered elements.</u></em>

Explanation:

  • <u>Mendeleev produced the first orderly arrangement of known elements and used patterns to predict the undiscovered elements.</u>

        Those two statments are true.

For the time being there were some 62 known elements. Before Medeleev some schemes to order part of the elements were proposed, but Medeleev showed the relationship between the atomic mass and the properties of the elements (supports second choice). This arrangement is known as the periodic table.

More importantly, Mendeleev predicted correctly the existance and properties of unknown elements, which is his major contribution: he left blanket spaces which where gradually filled when new elements where discovered (this supports the fourth choice).

The first modern chemistry book was written by Antoine Lavoisier (this discards first option).

Mendeleev ordered the elements by increasing mass number (this discards third choice), which was corrected later by the scientist Henry Moseley, who ordered the elements by increasing atomic number (number of protons).

Isotopes were not known by Mendeleev times, so this discards the last option.

Sulfur oxides Carbon monoxides Chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs)Nitrates are responsible for the hole in the ozone layer.
svp [43]
The best answer for the question above would be the chloroflourocarbons or the CFCs. These chloroflourocarbons or CFCs are the ones responsible for the depletion of the ozone - which leads to leaving a hole in its layer. These gases eat out the ozone layer and allows harmful UV rays of the sun to come in the Earth.
