<span>The rate of infusion is 2.1L/19h or 2100mL/19h (as 1L = 100 mL).
       
To convert 19 hours to minutes we multiply as follows:
   
19 hours = (19 hours) x (60 minutes/1 hour) = 1140 minutes
       
So the rate of infusion becomes:
   
2100mL /1140 min
       
In order to converted mL to drops (gtt) we multiply the rate of infusion with the drop factor to get the drip rate:
       
(2100mL/1140min) x (20 gtt/mL) = 36.8 gtt/min</span>

How many grams of sodium are in 0.820 moles of na2so4?
s344n2d4d5 [400]
<span>the molar mass of a compound is the sum of the products of the atomic masses by the number of atoms of the element.
molar mass of Na</span>₂SO₄<span> is - 142 g/mol.
1 mol of </span>Na₂SO₄<span> has a mass of 142 g.
In 1 mol of </span>Na₂SO₄<span> the mass of Na is 23 g/mol x 2 = 46 g.
                             
Mass of Na in 1 mol of </span>Na₂SO₄ is - 46 g
                           
mass of Na in 0.820 mol of Na₂SO₄ - 46 g /1 mol x 0.820 mol = 37.72 g.
mass of Na is 37.72 g

An object with the mass of 2300 g has a force of 6.2 Newton's applied to it. What is the resulting acceleration of the object?
Triss [41]

Answer:

\boxed {\boxed {\sf a\approx 2.7 \ m/s^2}}

Explanation:

Force is equal to mass times acceleration.

F=m*a

By dividing both sides by m, we rearrange the formula for a (acceleration).

\frac{F}{m} =a

The force is 6.2 Newtons, but we can convert the units to make the problem easier later on.

  • A Newton is equal to 1 kg*m/s², so 6.2 N is equal to 6.2 kg*m/s².

The mass is 2300 grams, but we need to convert it to kilograms.

  • To convert grams to kilograms, divide by 1,000
  • 2300 g/1000= 2.3 kg

F= 6.2 \ kg*m/s^2\\m=2.3 \ kg

Substitute the values into the formula.

a=\frac{6.2 \ kg*m/s^2}{2.3 \ kg}

Divide. Note that the kilograms or "kg" will cancel each other out (this is why we converted the units).

a=\frac{6.2 \ m/s^2}{2.3 \ }

a=2.69565217 \ m/s^2

Round to the nearest tenth. The 9 in the hundredth place tells us to round up to 2.7

a\approx 2.7 \ m/s^2

The acceleration is about <u>2.7 meters per second squared.</u>
