Answer:

This question is incomplete, it should read 3x² - 10x + 8. The answer is (3x-4) (x-2).

Please find the solved explanation to this question attached

Explanation:

To factorize means to write an expression as a product of its factors using brackets. It is the opposite of expanding an algebraic expression i.e. it involves contracting it using factors common to the variables.

In this question, 3x² - 10x + 8 is given

For the sum, which is -10x, and product, which is 24x², -6x and -4x are the two variables whose sum will give rise to -10x and also whose product will give rise to 24x².

We have;

3x² - 10x + 8

3x² - 6x - 4x + 8

Next, we look for factors of each pair of expression.

3x (x - 2) - 4 (x - 2)

(3x - 4) (x - 2)

The value of Kc for the thermal decomposition of H₂S is 2.2 x 10⁻⁴ at 1400 K:
2 H₂S(g) ↔ 2 H₂(g) + S₂(g)
initial 3.5 M 0 0
at equilibrium 3.5 M - 2x 2x x
Kc = [S₂][H₂]² / [H₂S]²
2.2 X 10⁻⁴ = x(2x)² / (3.5 - 2x)²
2.2 x 10⁻⁴ = 4 x³ / (3.5)² Assuming x <<<<< 3.5
x = 0.088
Thus [H₂S] = 3.324 M

Most continuous spectra are examples of what we also call thermal radiation spectra. Why do we call them "thermal" spectra?

lisov135 [29]

Answer:

They are emitted from heated objects

Explanation:

When objects are heated, they emit light at all wavelengths thereby forming a continuous spectrum. Electromagnetic radiation of all wavelengths and colours are usually represented in such spectrum. A thermal spectrum is quite a simple spectrum since it depends on temperature.

What happens when a catalyst is used in a reaction?.

den301095 [7]

A catalyst is a substance that increases the rate of a chemical reaction by lowering the activation energy without being used up in the reaction. After the reaction occurs, a catalyst returns to its original state and so catalysts can be used over and over again.
