Answer:

The eccentricity of the ellipse is 0.252.

Explanation:

The eccentricity of an ellipse (c), dimensionless, can be determined by means of the following expression:

e = \frac{\bar c}{\bar a} (1)

Where:

\bar c - Distance between the foci, dimensionless.

\bar a - Length of the major axis, dimensionless.

If we know that \bar c = 5.2 and \bar a = 20.6, then the eccentricity of the ellipse is:

e = \frac{5.2}{20.6}

e = 0.252

The eccentricity of the ellipse is 0.252.

Calculate the molality of a solution prepared by dissolving 175 g of KNO3 in 750 g of water. (round to nearest hundreth)
Wittaler [7]
We will get the molality from this formula:
Molality = no.of moles of solute / Kg of solvent 

So first we need the no.of moles of KNO3 = the mass of KNO3 / molar mass of KNO3
no.of moles of KNO3 = 175 / 101.01 = 1.73 mol
By substitution in the molality formula:
∴ molality = 1.73 / (750/1000) = 2.3 Molal

. If this same atom with 22 protons and 19 electrons were to gain 3 electrons, the net charge on the atom would be
frez [133]

Answer: No charge (0)

Explanation:

The atom has a proton of 22 and electron number of 19. This means the element has lost 3 electrons. Therefore, the net charge is +3.

So, if this atom gains 3 more electrons, the net charge would be zero (neutral).

The total number of electron would now be 22 which is the same as the proton number.

This implies the atom is now in an unreacted state or ground state.
