A baby weighs 7 pounds, 4 ounces at birth and 7 pounds, I ounce at discharge. What percent of weight did the baby lose
Aloiza [94]

Answer:

2.6%

Explanation:

As, 1 ounce (oz) =  0.0625 pounds (lb)

Therefore, weight of baby at discharge = 7 lb,1 oz = 7+0.0625 lb = 7.0625 lb

Since, 1 oz =  0.0625 lb

⇒ 4 oz = 4×0.0625 = 0.25 lb

Therefore, weight of baby at birth = 7 lb,4 oz = 7+0.25 lb = 7.25 lb

The <u>amount of weight lost</u> is equal to the difference of weight of the baby at birth and discharge.

Therefore, <u>weight lost</u> = 7.25 lb - 7.0625 lb = <u>0.1875 lb</u>

Now, the <u>percentage of weight lost</u> by the baby is given by the amount of weight lost divided by the weight of the baby at birth.

Therefore, <u>the percentage of weight los</u>t = weight lost ÷ weight at birth = 0.1875 lb ÷ 7.25 lb × 100 = <u>2.6% </u>

How many moles of Cl2 will produce 0.35 miles of NaCl when reacted with excess Na?
weeeeeb [17]
This question is based in mole ratios. for every mole of cl2, 2 moles of NaCl will be produced. so half of the moles of NaCl gives the moles of Cl2 required. therefore divide 0.35 by 2

The ionic radius for Na+ is 0.097 ηm and for Cl- is 0.181 ηm, the absolute value of the charge for each ion is 1.6x10-19 C, ε_o=
Vanyuwa [196]

Answer:

B = (2.953 × 10⁻⁹⁵) N.m⁹

Explanation:

At equilibrium, where the distance between the two ions (ro) is the sum of their ionic radii, the force between the two ions is zero.

That is,

Fa + Fr = 0

Fa = - Fr

Fa = (|q₁q₂|)/(4πε₀r²)

Fr = -B/(r^n) but n = 9

Fr = -B/r⁹

(|q₁q₂|)/(4πε₀r²) = (B/r⁹)

|q₁| = |q₂| = (1.6 × 10⁻¹⁹) C

(1/4πε₀) = k = (8.99 × 10⁹) Nm²/C²

r = 0.097 + 0.181 = 0.278 nm = (2.78 × 10⁻¹⁰) m

(k|q₁q₂|)/(r²) = (B/r⁹)

(k × |q₁q₂|) = (B/r⁷)

B = (k × |q₁q₂| × r⁷)

B = [8.99 × 10⁹ × 1.6 × 10⁻¹⁹ × 1.6 × 10⁻¹⁹ × (2.78 × 10⁻¹⁰)⁷]

B = (2.953 × 10⁻⁹⁵) N.m⁹
