What u do is, take the sister's age, then multiply it by 2 because the boy is 3 years older than TWICE his sister's age. His sister is 6, so 6x2=12, and he is 3 years older, so 6x2+3=15

The boy is 15 because twice the age of his sister is 12, then you add the three years to it and get 15

Mole Conversion: What is the mass of 3.13 x 1023 molecules of carbon dioxide?

4vir4ik [10]

Answer:

The mass of 3.13*10²³ molecules of carbon dioxide is 22.88 g.

Step-by-step explanation:

Avogadro's Number or Avogadro's Constant is the number of particles that make up a substance (usually atoms or molecules) and that can be found in the amount of one mole of said substance. Its value is 6.023*10²³ particles per mole and it applies to any substance.

Then you can apply the following rule of three: if 6.023*10²³ molecules are present in 1 mole, 3.13*10²³ molecules are present in how many moles?

$moles=\frac{3.13*10^{23}molecules*1 mole }{6.023*10^{23}molecules}$

moles= 0.52

Since the molar mass of carbon dioxide is 44 g / mole, then the following rule of three can be applied: if there are 44 g in 1 mole, how much mass is there in 0.52 moles?

$mass=\frac{0.52 moles*44 g}{1 mole}$

mass= 22.88 g

The mass of 3.13*10²³ molecules of carbon dioxide is 22.88 g.

The temperature, t, in Burrtown starts at 21°F at midnight, when h = 0. For the next few hours, the temperature drops 4 degrees

sweet-ann [11.9K]

In this case the temperature depends on the hour. So temperature is your X and hour is your Y variable. When h=0, x=0. So the 21*C is you x=0 or y-int point.

If we are trying to match the equation for a line of y=mx+b, 21*C=b.

Our rate of change is -4*C/h, which is our m variable.

So y=(-4)x+(21)

OR in this case, t=-4h+21.
