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)

Write an equilibrium expression for each chemical equation involving one or more solid or liquid reactants or products.
Alex_Xolod [135]

Answer:

a.

Keq=\frac{[HCO_3^-][OH^-]}{[CO_3^{2-}]}

b.

Keq=[O_2]^3

c.

Keq=\frac{[H_3O^+][F^-]}{[HF]}

d.

Keq=\frac{[NH_4^+][OH^-]}{[NH_3]}

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, for the attached reactions, it turns out possible for us to write the equilibrium expressions by knowing any liquid or solid would be not-included in the equilibrium expression as shown below, with the general form products/reactants:

a.

Keq=\frac{[HCO_3^-][OH^-]}{[CO_3^{2-}]}

b.

Keq=[O_2]^3

c.

Keq=\frac{[H_3O^+][F^-]}{[HF]}

d.

Keq=\frac{[NH_4^+][OH^-]}{[NH_3]}

Regards!

A technical machinist is asked to build a cubical steel tank that will hold 195 L of water. Calculate in meters the smallest pos
Aleks04 [339]

Answer:

The smallest possible inside length of the tank is 0.579 m.

Explanation:

As we know that

1 m^3 = 1000 L

Thus, volume of 195 liter tank is also equal to 0.195 cubic meter

The volume of a cube is equal to x^3, where, x is the length of the side of the cube

With the give condition,

x^ 3 = 0.195

Solving the above equation, we get -

x = (0.195)^{\frac{1}{3})}\\x = 0.579

The smallest possible inside length of the tank is 0.579 m.
