1) d
2) b because the independent variable is the thing you change/control in an experiment
3) c because the dependent variable is the thing being measured in an experiment
4)hmm it might be d, as c and a are both correct as different sized feeders would make it an unfair test and different types of food would as well
5) c
6) a
7) b obviously because if he activated them at different times then the ones activated last would have an advantage
What do you need help with
I think answer should be the last option I hope this helps let me know if it’s correct thanks
Answer:
The mass ratio of zinc to sulfide is 85:42.
2.5559 kg of Zn are in 3.82 kg of ZnS.
Explanation:
a) Mass of zinc sulfide = 254 g
Mass of zinc in a zinc sulfide sample = 170 g
Mass of sulfide in zinc sulfide sample = x
254 g = 170 g+ x
x = 84 g
The mass ratio of zinc to sulfide:

b) Mass of zincsulfide sample = 3.83 kg
The mass ratio of zinc to sulfide is 85:42.
Let the mass of zinc and sulfide be 85x and 42x respectively:
85 x+ 42 x=3.82 kg
x =0.03007 kg
Mass of an zinc= 85x=85 × 0.03007 kg= 2.5559 kg
The empirical formula is N₂O₅.
The empirical formula is the <em>simplest whole-number ratio of atoms</em> in a compound.
The ratio of atoms is the same as the ratio of moles, so our job is to calculate the <em>molar ratio of N:O</em>.
I like to summarize the calculations in a table.
<u>Element</u> <u>Moles</u> <u>Ratio¹ </u> <u> ×2² </u> <u>Integers</u>³
N 1.85 1 2 2
O 4.63 2.503 5.005 5
¹To get the molar ratio, you divide each number of moles by the smallest number (1.85).
²Multiply these values by a number (2) that makes the numbers in the ratio close to integers.
³Round off the number in the ratio to integers (2 and 5).
The empirical formula is N₂O₅.
