Pharmacists sometimes measure medicines in the unit of "grains," where 1 gr = 65 mg. The label on a bottle of aspirin reads "Asp

irin, 5 gr." How many mg of aspirin are in a tablet containing 5 gr?

Answer:

325mg of Aspririn

Explanation:

First you should note the information that the problem gives you:

- The bottle of Aspirin has 5gr (grains)

- 1gr(grain) = 65mg (miligrams)

Also, the problem is asking about how many aspirin are in 5 gr (grains), so you should use a conversion factor, as follows:

-First you should put the quantity you need to convert:

5grAspirin

-Then you write the denominator of the conversion factor that must have the same units that you want to convert, in this case gr:

5grAspirin*\frac{}{1grAspirin}

-Then you write the numerator with the units that you want to obtain and the numerical equivalence between the units, in this case:

5grAspirin*\frac{65mgAspririn}{1grAspirin}

-Finally you multiply numerators and divide by denominators:

5grAspirin*\frac{65mgAspririn}{1grAspirin}=325mgAspririn

Alecsey [184]

Answer:

C) ball rollinflown a hill

Explanation:

The question asks to  identify the endothermic process in the list of options. By way of elimination, we have;

A) condensation of water on a wind shield of a car

Condensation is an exothermic process. That is, heat is given out as the gases change into the liquid state of matter.

B) formation of copper

This is an exothermic process. Capture of electrons by a cation is always exothermic.

C) ball rollinflown a hill

This is the correct option. Energy is absorbed by the ball as it moves on the hill

D) formation of ice from liquid water

Freezing is an example of exothermic reaction. Heat is given off to the surroundings.

E) oxide from copper and oxygen

Formation of metal oxides and most reactions involving oxygen are exothermic reactions,

explain what happens when anhydrous calcium chloride are exposed to the atmosphere for about two days​
PtichkaEL [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

Calcium chloride is <u>deliquescent.</u> If exposed to air, it will absorb sufficient water from the air to allow it to dissolve. After a short while, instead of a white lump, you will have a pool of clear liquid.

A sample of concrete contains cement, gravel, crushed rocks, sand, and water. Each of these contains different metals and minera
Zepler [3.9K]

As the concrete has cement, gravel, crushed rocks, sand, and water of different physical state and can be separated by physical methods hence it should be called as a mixture.

As the components have significant physical boundaries which clearly identify their presence, the mixture is heterogeneous and not homogeneous.

Thus this is a concrete is a heterogeneous mixture of cement, gravel, crushed rocks, sand, and water

The diagram below is an artist’s impression of a single atom of element Be. The neutrons are shown with stripes, the protons are
lara [203]
The correct option is B.
Isotopes refers to those chemical compounds which have the same number of protons and electrons but different number of neutrons, so they end up having different mass numbers.  The diagram given above is that of beryllium, which has atomic number 4 and it has 2 electrons in its outermost shell. It has four protons [same as the number of electrons] and 5 neutrons. Beryllium 10, which is its isotope has four electrons, four protons and 6 neutrons. To get the number of neutron, remove the number of electrons from the number given in the option, that is, 10 - 4 = 6.
