Answer:

10%-saline solution = 60mL

15%-saline solution = 40mL

Explanation:

Let

10%-saline solution = x

15%-saline solution = y

x + y = 100

0.1x + 0.15y = 100*0.12

x + y = 100 (1)

0.1x + 0.15y = 12 (2)

from (1)

x = 100 - y

Substitute x = 100 - y into

0.1x + 0.15y = 12

0.1(100 - y) + 0.15y = 12

10 - 0.1y + 0.15y = 12

- 0.1y + 0.15y = 12 - 10

0.05y = 2

y = 2 / 0.05

y = 40mL

Substitute y = 40 into

x + y = 100

x + 40 = 100

x = 100 - 40

x = 60mL

10%-saline solution = 60mL

15%-saline solution = 40mL

A] 1 N2 + 3 H2 → 2 NH3
Vilka [71]

I haven't done these in some time, so I'm not sure if they are 100% right.

1) 6.3 moles of H2( 2 mol of NH3 / 3  mol of H2)= 4.2 mol of NH3

6.3 moles of H2( 2 mol of NH3/ 3 mol of H2)(17.04 g of NH3/1 mol NH3)= 71.57 g of NH3

2) 2.5 moles of N2(2 mol of NH3/1 mol of N2)= 5 moles of NH3

2.25 moles of N2(2 mol of NH3/ 1 mol of N2)(6.02x10^23 particles/ 1 mol of NH3)= 3.01x10^24 particles of NH3

3) 425 g of NH3(1 mol of NH3/17.04 g NH3)= 24.9 moles of NH3

425 g of NH3(1 mol of NH3/17.04 g of NH3)(1 mol of N2/2 mol of NH3)(28.02 g of N2/1 mol N2)= 349 g of N2

425 g of NH3(1 mol of NH3/17.04 g of NH3)(1 mol of N2/2 mol of NH3)= 12.5 mol of N2

4) 10 moles NH3(3 moles of H2/2 moles of NH3)= 15 moles H2

10 moles NH3(3 mol of H2/2 mol of NH3)(2.02 g of H2/1 mol of H2)= 30.3 g of H2

30.3 g = .0303 liters of H2

grigory [225]

Answer:

Explanation:

_Andesitic__ magma is a mix between basaltic and rhyolitic magma. The eruption that would most likely result from this magma is a _strombolian____ eruption.

Andesitic magma straddles between basaltic and rhyolitic magma. They produce rocks that shows both basaltic and rhyolitic affinity. Examples of rocks that results from this type of magma is andesite.

Strombolian eruptions results from this type of magma. They are charactised by moderate to low bursts of magma. Their explosivity is between 2 and 3.
