Answer:

2.954 g

Explanation:

One banana contains 422 mg

One banana weighs 118 g

To make our calculations easier, we will convert both unit to the same power, that is both of them will be in g.

422 mg = 422/1000 = 0.422 g

If one banana contains 0.422 g of potassium, then 7 bananas(since he eats 1 per day) will weigh

0.422 * 7 = 2.954 g

Thus, after a week, he would have ingested at least 2.954 g of potassium.

I hope you understand the explanations. Thanks

Given

a concentration of  0.050 mol L  to a concentration of 0.040 mol L

Required

the decomposition time

Solution

The reaction rate (v) shows the change in the concentration of the substance (changes in addition to concentrations for reaction products or changes in concentration reduction for reactants) per unit time

For first-order reaction :

[A]=[Ao]e^(-kt)

or

ln[A]=-kt+ln(A0)

Input the value :

ln(0.040)=-(0.029)t+ln(0.050)

-3.219 = -0.029t -2.996

-0.223 =-0.029t

t=7.69 minutes

The process of pouring a mixture though a filter to catch the larger particles while allowing the smaller particles to pass thro
Annette [7]
This process is called filtration. This process is a solid-fluid separation by the use of a medium wherein only the fluid (gases or liquids) can go through it. The medium is called the filter while the fluid that passed through the filter is called the filtrate. The solid particles are the large particles which cannot pass through the filter.

Lynna [10]

Explanation:

Wildfires destroy forests that are great carbon sinks. This means that large amount of carbon dioxide are released back into the atmosphere. Carbon dioxide is a greenhouse gas and this will contribute to global warming.

An advantage is that the wildfire will spur secondary ecological succession. This kind of succession improves the biodiversity of the forest. Biodiversity improves the productivity of the ecosystem.
