Answer:

It solved the issue of depending on too many base units

Explanation:

It was first adopted by the French government. Metric system was developed by Gabriel Mouton of Lyons, he is called the founding father of the metric system. He proposed the decimal system of measurement that was refined by the scientists.

The metric system is simple for making measurements, you just need to know few metric units. There are seven base units in this system of measurement while there are twenty base units in inch-pound system of measurement. Metric system is easier to remember. The metric system follows the decimal number system and it decreases and increases in size by 10.

It has been adopted by all the countries of the world except Myanmar and US.

Four moles of Argon gas are at a pressure of 1.90 atm, and the temperature is 50 degrees C. What is the volume of the gas?
soldier1979 [14.2K]
N = 4 moles of Ar2, P = 1.90 atm, V = ?
T = 50C = 273 + 50K = 323K
PV = nRT --> V = nRT/P
V = (4)(.0821)(323)/1.90
V = 106.07/ 1.9
V = 55.8 L

What happened during the fusion reaction shown?
NARA [144]

Answer:

Nuclear Fusion reactions power the Sun and other stars. In a fusion reaction, two light nuclei merge to form a single heavier nucleus.The process releases energy because the total mass of the resulting single nucleus is less than the mass of the two original nuclei

Explanation:

Nuclear fusion is a process in which atomic nuclei are fused together to form heavier nuclei. ... Like fission, nuclear fusion can also transmute one element into another. For example, hydrogen nuclei fuse in stars to form the element helium.

15g of FeCI3 is dissolved in 450 mL of solution. What is the concentration of [CI-]?
storchak [24]

The concentration of [CI-] : 0.617 M

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

FeCl₃ dissolved in 450 mL of solution(will dissociate )

Reaction

FeCl₃⇒Fe³⁺+3Cl⁻

  • mol FeCl₃(MW=162,2 g/mol)

\tt \dfrac{15}{162.2}=0.0925

  • mol Cl⁻ :

\tt \dfrac{3}{1}\times 0.0925=0.2775

  • molarity of Cl⁻ :

\tt \dfrac{0.2775}{0.45}=0.617~M
