Answer:

d) Make it flexible  

Step-by-step explanation:

Raw hides dry out to form a hard material that can decay with an offensive smell when they become wet.

Tanning converts the protein of the raw hide into a stable material that will stay flexible and not decompose when it gets wet.

a) is <em>wrong</em>. The purpose of tanning is to soften the leather.

b) is <em>wrong</em>. You smooth the leather manually with fine sandpaper.

c) is <em>wrong</em>. Tanning does not impart water resistance. It prevents the leather from putrefying when it does get wet.

What is equal to the number of particles in 36 grams of carbon-12?
HACTEHA [7]

Answer:

3 moles

Explanation:

To solve this problem we will  use the Avogadro numbers.

The number 6.022×10²³ is called Avogadro number and it is the number of atoms, ions or molecules in one mole of substance.  According to this,

1.008 g of hydrogen = 1 mole =  6.022×10²³  atoms.

18 g water = 1 mole = 6.022×10²³ molecules

we are given 36 g of C-12. So,

12 g of C-12 = 1 mole

24 g of C-12 =  2 mole

36 g of C-12 = 3 mole

So 3 moles of C-12 equals to the number of particles in 36 g of C-12.
