A public School district furnishes pencils to its elementary school. The pencils the secretary orders from the district warehous

e each year are packaged in boxes that contain one gross (12 dozen). The average use of pencils is 9.3 pencils per student. If the school's enrollment is 812 students, what is the minimum number of boxes of pencils that should be ordered?

Answer:

The minimum number of boxes of pencils to be ordered is 630 boxes.

Explanation:

Since a pupil uses averagely 9.3 pencils

and a box contains 12 pencils,

the school enrollment is also 812

school's enrollment x average use of pencil per student

__________________________________________

            number of pencils in a box

812 x 9.3 = 7551.6

7551.6 /12 = 629.3

Having a total number of 630 boxes of pencils to be ordered.

Which of the following statements about decomposition reactions is true?
Andreyy89
C

Decomposition is of this form: A becomes B+C ... so after the reaction, the element A DECOMPOSES into two smaller elements, B and C.

Synthesis is the opposite: B+C becomes A AFTER THE REACTION.

Hope that helps :))

Rn-222 has a half-life of 3.82 days. If 25.0 g of Radon-22 was originally present, approximately how many grams would be left af
horsena [70]

Answer:

Approximately 0.39 g or 0.4 g if you're rounding up

Explanation:

15/3.82 = 3.92

Let's round that up to 4

That means 15 days is around 4 half lives

4 half lives means 1/16 of the original mass will be left

25/16 = 0.390625

The goal of this lesson:
mote1985 [20]

Answer:

1. The concentration of N₂O₄ decrease as the temperature of the system increased.

2. The formation of products was favored by the addition of heat.

3. The reaction going from right to left is exothermic.

4. N₂O₄ → 2NO₂; HR = +14 kcal.

Explanation:

Equation of the reaction is as follows: N₂O₄ ⇄ 2NO₂

The forward reaction proceeds with an increase in temperature. As the temperature of the reaction was increased, more of the N₂O₄ decomposed to form NO₂. Therefore, the concentration of N₂O₄ deceased.

2. The formation of products, that is the forward reaction leading to formation of NO₂ was favored by the addition of heat. Thus, with increase in temperature, the concentration of NO₂ increased.

3. An endothermic reaction is a type of reaction which requires energy input in the form of heat in order to proceed.

From the observations during the reaction, an increase in temperature by the addition of heat resulted in an increase in the forward reaction, therefore, the forward reaction is endothermic and the backward reaction is exothermic. Thus, the reaction in which colorless N₂O₄ is produced, is an exothermic reaction.

4. The change in enthalpy of a reaction is the difference in the heat content of reactants and products. For exothermic reactions, enthalpy change is negative, whereas for endothermic reactions, enthalpy change is positive.

The decomposition of  N₂O₄ to NO₂ is an endothermic reaction. Hence, the correct chemical equation is: N₂O₄ → 2NO₂; HR = +14 kcal.
