Answer:
x = 1, -7.5
Explanation:
2x² + 13x = 15
Divide the left side of the equation by 2
2(x² + 6.5x) = 15
Divide 6.5 by 2 and square the quotient
6.5/2 = 3.25
3.25² = 10.5625
Add 10.5625 to the left side
2(x² + 6.5x + 10.5625) = 15
Since you have a 2 outside the parentheses, you will be adding 10.5625•2 to the right side.
10.5625 • 2 = 21.125
2(x² + 6.5x + 10.5625) = 36.125
To factor (x² + 6.5x + 10.5625), add b/2 to x
b/2 = 6.5/2 = 3.25
2(x + 3.25)² = 36.125
Divide by 2
(x + 3.25)² = 18.0625
Square root.
(x + 3.25) = √18.0625
x + 3.25 = ±4.25
Subtract 3.25.
x = 4.25 - 3.25 = 1
x = -4.25 - 3.25 = -7.5
x = 1, -7.5
Answer:
9 moles of ions
Explanation:
Our compound is: CaCl₂(s)
We dissociate it:
CaCl₂(aq) → Ca²⁺ (aq) + 2Cl⁻(aq)
Per 1 mol of chloride, we have 1 mol of calcium cation and 2moles of chlorides, so in total we have 3 moles of ions.
Therefore in 3 moles of chloride, we would have 9 moles of ions (3 . 3)
<span>The smallest unit of an element that retains all the characteristics of that element is called an A. atom.
Atoms consist of protons, electrons, and neutrons, but they are particles and don't have the characteristics of the element which is why D is incorrect. B and C are not the smallest units - atoms are smaller than them.
