Answer:

The placebo effect is when an improvement of symptoms is observed, despite using a nonactive treatment. It’s believed to occur due to psychological factors like expectations or classical conditioning.

Research has found that the placebo effect can ease things like pain, fatigue, or depression.

You find a compound composed only of element X and chlorine and you know that the compound is 13.10% X by mass. Each molecule of

8_murik_8 [283]

Answer:

Explanation:

So, the formula for the compound should be:

$XCl_{6}$

Now we assume that we have 1 mol of substance, so we can make calculations to know the molar mass of element X, as follows:

$M_{Cl}=35.45g/mol\\$

So we have that 6 moles weight 212.7g, and we can make a rule of three to know the weight of compound X:

$212.7g\rightarrow 86.9\%\\x\rightarrow 13.1\%\\\\x=\frac{212.7g*13.1}{86.9} =32.06g$

As we used 1 mol, we know that the molar mass is 32.06g/mol

So the element has a molar mass of 32.06 g/mol and an oxidation state of +6, with this information, we can assure that the element X is sulfur, so the compound is $SCl_{6}$

The line graph shows the heights of plants grown in fertilized and unfertilized soil. Based on this information, what will most

AfilCa [17]

Answer:

g) Neither plant should increase by 1 cm in height.

Explanation:

See the graph for this question on the figure attached.

The growing of the plant A is represented by the line that goes above the other. At start, that line has a slope that rises about 0.75 cm ( height increase) in 1 day. From the day 2 and forward the slope of the line decreases. The line reaches its highest point about at day 4 and seems to start decreasing. Thus, you should predict that on the day six it most likely does not increase in height.

The growing of the plant B is represented by the line drawn below the other. As for the plant B, the growing decreases with the number of days. Between the days 4 and 5 the line is almost flat, which means that most likely this plant will not grow on the day six or grow less than 0.5 cm.

Thus, for both plants you can say that on day six, most likley, neither should increase by 1 cm in height (option g).

By studying the distribution of different types of fossils, geologists have determined that some plates have traveled great dist

WITCHER [35]

Answer:

A. Fossils of organisms that lived in warm climates have been found in arctic environments.

Explanation:

One of the logic used by Geologists to justify plate movement over a region of space is that the fossils of organisms that lived in warm climates have been found in arctic environments.

this is as a result of plate tectonics.
organisms that are well adapted to warm climates in times past have their relics preserved as fossils.
their fossils are no found today around the arctic environment which are cold
this suggests that the plate must have drifted or moved

Calculate the mass percent of 0.485 g of H, which reacts with oxygen to form 2.32 g H2O

Nataly [62]

Answer:

Mass % of hydrogen = 20.9 %

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of hydrogen = 0.485 g

Mass of water = 2.32 g

Mass percent of hydrogen = ?

Solution:

Mass % of hydrogen = mass of hydrogen / mass of water × 100

Mass % of hydrogen = 0.485 g/ 2.32 g × 100

Mass % of hydrogen = 0.209 × 100

Mass % of hydrogen = 20.9 %
