Answer:

a) 12/323

b) 8/233

Explanation:

a) The probability of a red ball being drawn is 12/38, or in a simplified fraction, 6/19. To find the probability that 3 are red you would multiply the probability of the fraction for each, except subtracting one from the total each time as the drawn is done without replacement. This is done as follows: 6/19 × 6/18 × 6/17= 12/323

b) The probability of drawing a blue ball is 8/38, or 4/19. To find that the first one is blue and the rest are red, the equation is done as follows: 4/19 × 6/18 × 6/17 = 8/233

(hopefully I did this right)

How many molecules make up 8.41 moles of Ca2(SO3)?
sammy [17]

Answer:

<h3>5.06282 × 10²⁴ molecules</h3>

Explanation:

The number of molecules of Ca2(SO3) can be found by using the formula

<h3>N = n × L</h3>

where n is the number of moles

N is the number of entities

L is the Avogadro's constant which is

6.02 × 10²³ entities

From the question we have

N = 8.41 × 6.02 × 10²³

We have the final answer as

<h3>5.06282 × 10²⁴ molecules</h3>

Hope this helps you

What are the benefits of a model to demonstrate the atomic theory?
Norma-Jean [14]

Answer:

Atomic models are important because, they help us visualize the interior of atoms and molecules, and thereby predicting properties of matter.

Explanation:

We study the various atomic models in our course of study because, it is important for us to know, how did people come to the present concept of an atom. How did physics evolve from classical to quantum physics.

All these are important for us to know and thus, knowledge about various atomic models, their discoveries and drawbacks and finally improvements based on scientific evidence present at that time is important for us to understand the underlying theory very well.
