Answer:

Illusory correlation

Explanation:

Illusory correlation is a psychological phenomenon of sensing a correlation or relationship between a particular quantity and other variables however unrelated the two variables may be. A person may establish such connections, which are indeed false connections, as a result of over emphasis on novel incidents that are easily noticed due to them being salient

For example, when a waiter at a restaurant is being rude to a person after the person was made to walk under a ladder due to ongoing construction.

Which elements will bond ionically with barium such that the formula would be written as BaX2? A) Nitrogen, chlorine, and sodium
erma4kov [3.2K]

The answer would be:

B. Chlorine, iodine and Fluorine

Barium has 2 valence electrons. To satisfy the BaX₂ , this would mean that Barium will need to give one of each of its electrons. The elements that need 1 electron would be those that have 7 valence electrons to complete the octet. These elements would fall in group 7 or halogens. Chlorine, iodine and fluorine are all in Group 7, so this would be the best choice.

A truck covered 2/7 of a journey at an average speed of 40
sertanlavr [38]

Answer:

The amount of time for the whole journey is 8 hours.

Explanation:

A truck covered 2/7 of a journey at an average speed of 40  mph. Representing 1 the total of the trip traveled, then the rest of the distance traveled is calculated as: 1-\frac{2}{7} =\frac{5}{7}

So if the truck covered the remaining 200 miles at \frac{2}{7}, this means that \frac{5}{7} of the trip represents the 200 miles. So, to calculate the total distance traveled by the truck, you apply the following rule of three: if \frac{5}{7} of the route represents 200 miles, the integer 1 (which represents the total of the route), how many miles are they?

miles=\frac{1*200miles}{\frac{5}{7} } =\frac{7}{5} *200 miles

miles= 280

So the total distance traveled is 280 miles. Since speed is the relationship between the space traveled by an object and the time used for it (speed=\frac{distance}{time}), then if the average of the entire trip was 35 mph and the distance traveled 280 miles, the time is calculated as:

time=\frac{distance}{speed}=\frac{280 miles}{35 mph}

time= 8 h

<u><em> The amount of time for the whole journey is 8 hours.</em></u>
