Answer:

24.5%

Explanation:

You just add up the atomic masses.  

Ca - 40.078  

Cl2 - 35.4527 x 2 = 70.9054  

------ 110.9834  

H4 - 1.00794 x 4 = 4.03176  

O2 - 31.9998  

------ 36.03056  

TOTAL - 147.01396  

So the water is 36.03056/147.01396 = .245082576 but that is only accurate to three decimals (because the mass of Ca was only given to three decimals) so we write .245 and that is 24.5%

This is not my answer but I found it on Yahoo answers and it was answered by Anonymous.

Answer: <u>24.5%</u>

Explanation: Molar mass of CaCl2 * 2 H2O = 40.078 + ( 2 x 35.453) + ( 2 x 18.02)=147.024 g/mol  

% H2O = 2 x 18.02 x 100/ 147.024 =24.5

What property of liquid oxygen makes it especially difficult and potentially harmful to work with at home?
irga5000 [103]
The property of liquid oxygen that makes it especially difficult and potentially harmful to work with at home would be its cryogenic temperature. Liquid oxygen is being produced from the compression of oxygen gas to -196 degrees Celsius. As you can see, it has a very cold temperature that is why it used in cryogenics. Although liquid oxygen is non-toxic to humans, it would cause burns that are severe when being touched. Also, it would make certain materials brittle and unstable. Another property that makes it dangerous for use at home would be that it is very flammable. Proper handling is a must for this substance.

Which antibody does the body release when it identifies a bacterium or virus?
dlinn [17]

Explanation:

Immunoglobulin M is the first antibody produced on initial exposure to an antigen. It is also known as IgM.

It occurs as a primary response to the antigens against a particular baterium or virus. It is pentavalent in nature and has ten binding sites for antigens.

Therefore, it is concluded that when the body identifies a bacterium or a virus, it releases the antibody IgM.

What does intrinsic mean in science
quester [9]

An intrinsic property is independent of how much of a material is present and is independent of the form of the material, one large piece or a collection of small particles. Intrinsic properties are dependent mainly on the fundamental chemical composition and structure of the material.
