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)

Determine the mass of 2.4 x 10^24 atoms of gold?​
Scorpion4ik [409]

Answer:

Mass = 785.9 g

Explanation:

Given data:

Atoms of gold = 2.4 × 10²⁴ atoms

Mass of gold = ?

Solution:

First of all we will convert the number of atoms into moles.

2.4 × 10²⁴ atoms × 1 mol/ 6.02 × 10²³ atoms

number of moles = 3.99 mol

Now we will determine the mass of gold.

Mass = number of moles × molar mass

Mass =  3.99 mol × 196.97 g/mol

Mass = 785.9 g

Given the following rate equation, complete the sentences to identify the reaction order for each reagent, the overall reaction
Eva8 [605]

Answer:

1. First

2. Third

3. Fourth

4.remain the same as

Explanation:

Given the reaction equation;

Rate= k[A] [B]^3

We can see that the order of reaction is first order with respect to reactant A and third order with respect to reactant B. This gives an overall fourth order reaction.

If the concentration of A is doubled and that of B is halved. The rate of reaction remains the same.
