Suponga que una persona desea invertir su capital en un banco y desea saber cuánto dinero ganara después de un mes si el banco p
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:

La ganancia depende de la cantidad que la persona invirtió en el banco.

Explicación:

Si una persona invierte 10000 dólares en su cuenta bancaria, obtendrá 200 dólares de beneficio al mes si la tasa es del 2% mensual. Si la cantidad de inversión aumenta hasta 1 millón de dólares, entonces la persona obtiene más ganancias que son 20000 dólares, entonces la ganancia depende de la cantidad que la persona invirtió en el banco y la tasa de ganancia dada por el banco.

What is the Wt% of SiO2 in augite?<br><br> (Ca, Fe, Mg, Na)(Mg,Fe,Al) (Si,Al)2 O6
vaieri [72.5K]

Answer:

The weight% of SiO_2 in augite is 13.16 %.

Explanation:

Atomic mass of calcium = 40 g/mol

Atomic mass of iron = 56 g/mol

Atomic mass of magnesium = 24 g/mol

Atomic mass of sodium = 23 g/mol

Atomic mass of aluminum = 27 g/mol

Atomic mass of silicon = 28 g/mol

Atomic mass of oxygen = 16 g/mol

Mass of SiO_2=28 g/mol+ 2\time 16 g/mol=60 g/mol

Molar mass of the augite (Ca, Fe, Mg, Na)(Mg,Fe,Al)(Si,Al)_2 O_6 = M

M=40 g/mol+2\times 56 g/mol+2\times 24 g/mol+23 g/mol+3\times 27 g/mol+2\times 28 g/mol+6\times 16 g/mol=456 g/mol

Weight% of SiO_2 in augite:

w\%=\frac{60 g/mol}{456 g/mol}\times 100=13.16\%

24) Most of the precipitation that falls onto Earth's surface ________. A) is already unusable because of acid rain B) evaporate
SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:C) either runs off to form rivers or filters down into underground aquifers

Explanation:Precipitation is any form of moisture which falls to the earth. This includes rain, snow, hail and sleet. Precipitation occurs when water vapour cools. When the air reaches saturation point (also known as condensation point and dew point) the water vapour condenses and forms tiny droplets of water.

In meteorology, precipitation is any product of the condensation of atmospheric water vapour that falls under gravity from clouds. The main forms of precipitation include drizzle, rain, sleet, snow, ice pellets, graupel and hail. ... Short, intense periods of rain in scattered locations are called "showers."
