The difference between the two is that the values in discontinuous variation are fixed, while the values in continuous variation can be changed. :)
Answer:
Na₂CO₃•H₂O
Explanation:
After it is heated, the remaining mass is the mass of sodium carbonate.
30.2 g Na₂CO₃
Mass is conserved, so the difference is the mass of the water:
35.4 g − 30.2 g = 5.2 g H₂O
Convert masses to moles:
30.2 g Na₂CO₃ × (1 mol Na₂CO₃ / 106 g Na₂CO₃) = 0.285 mol Na₂CO₃
5.2 g H₂O × (1 mol H₂O / 18.0 g H₂O) = 0.289 mol H₂O
Normalize by dividing by the smallest:
0.285 / 0.285 = 1.00 mol Na₂CO₃
0.289 / 0.285 = 1.01 mol H₂O
The ratio is approximately 1:1. So the formula of the hydrate is Na₂CO₃•H₂O.
Transverse waves can be produced on a rope by moving one end of the rope up and down.The movement causes motion in the particles that make up the rope and the rope itself becomes the medium. The particles move perpendicular to the propagation. The movement also causes crests(highest point of the wave) and troughs (lowest point of the wave) which move along the direction of propagation.
