Answer: 250
Explanation:
You work this problem by using proportions.
A proportion is the equalization of two ratios.
Here you assume that the ratio of fish with tags to total fish that you catch is the same than the ratio of fish with tags to total fish in the pond.
Mathematically:
- 5 fish with tag / 25 fish = 50 fish with tag / x
Solve for x:
- Multiplication property of equality: x × 5 = 50 × 25
- Division property of equality: x = 50 × 25 / 5
- Result: 250
<span>There are 34 hydrogen atoms.

3.01 Ă— 10^24 Ă— (12/5) hydrogen atoms
Looking at the formula for the molecule, the ratio of carbon to hydrogen atoms is 5:12, so if we divide the number of carbon atoms by 5 and then multiply by 12, we can find the number of hydrogen atoms. Let's look at the available options and see what makes sense.
3.01 Ă— 10^24 Ă— (12/5) hydrogen atoms
* This is exactly correct.
(3.01 Ă— 10^24 / 5) hydrogen atoms
* Nope. This will tell you how many pentane MOLECULES you have, but not the number of hydrogen atoms.
3.01 Ă— 10^24 Ă— (5/12) hydrogen atoms
* Close, but the ratio (5/12) will tell you the number of carbon atoms you have if you give it the number of hydrogen atoms. So this choice is wrong.
3.01 Ă— 10^24 Ă— 12 hydrogen atoms description
* This would tell you the number of hydrogen atoms you have if you know the number of pentane molecules you have. So this choice is also wrong.
