Answer:

Explanation:

Subscripts. We use subscripts in chemical formulae to indicate the number of atoms of an element present in a molecule or formula unit.

Answer:

A molecular formula tells us what atoms and how many of each type of atom are present in a molecule.

Explanation:

If only one atom of a specific type is present, no subscript is used.

For atoms that have two or more present, a subscript is written after the symbol for that atom.

Molecular formulas do not indicate how the atoms are arranged in the molecule.

A 0.9182 g sample of CaBr2 is dissolved in enough water to give 500 ml of solution. what is the calcium ion concentration in thi
Nataly_w [17]

First calculate the number of moles of CaBr2 given the molar mass of 199.89 g/mol.

moles CaBr2 = 0.9182 g / (199.89 g / mol) = 4.60 x 10^-3 mol

 

We see that each CaBr2 contains only 1 mole of Ca, so the moles of Ca is also:

moles Ca+ = 4.60 x 10^-3 mol

 

So the molarity of this is:

Molarity Ca+ = 4.60 x 10^-3 mol / 0.500 L

<span>Molarity Ca+ = 9.19 x 10^-3 M</span>

A cheetah has been clocked at 112 km/h over a 100-m distance. What is this speed in m/s?
Serhud [2]
M/sec = 112 km / 1 hr / 1 min / 1000 meters
hr / 60 min / 60 sec / 1 km

So the answer is = 31.1 meters/sec
