Dimensional analysis is based on the principle that physical quantities that are equated must be represented in measures of the same basic quantities (e.g mass, length, or time) in order to draw conclusions about their relationships.

If Gold cost $8.00 per ounce

Then $15.00 will cost:

\mathbf{x = \dfrac{\$15.00 \times 1  \ ounce}{ \$ 8.00}}

x = 1.875 ounces

Assuming x to be the amount of ounce, then Gold of $15.00 will cost 1.875 ounces.

Now, given that:

1000g = 1kg

1 kg = 2.2 lbs

1 lb = 16 oz

Then, to determine the amount of gram that is equivalent to 1.875 ounces, we have:

Since 1 lb = 16 oz

2.2 lbs = (2.2*16) oz

= 35.2 oz

Since 1 kg = 2.2lbs = 35.02 oz

∴

x(g) =  1 kg

1000 g = 35.02 oz

1 (g) = 35.02/1000 oz

1 (g) = 0.03502 oz

Thus, If 1 (g) = 0.03502 oz

x(g) = 1.875 oz

\mathbf{x(g) = \dfrac{1.875 \ oz \times 1 \ g}{0.03502 \ oz}}

x  = 53.54 g

Thus, we can conclude that amount of the grams you can purchase for $15.00 is 53.54 grams

What is the ph of a solution with [h3o+] = 1 × 10-9 m?
FrozenT [24]
PH scale is used to determine how acidic, basic or neutral a solution is
pH can be calculated using the H₃O⁺
ph can be calculated as follows
pH = - log[ H₃O⁺]
[H₃O⁺] = 1 x 10⁻⁹
pH = - log [1 x 10⁻⁹]
 pH = 9
pH of solution is 9

What information do we need to determine the molecular formula of a compound from the empirical formula?
defon

Answer:

Molecular mass

Explanation:

Molecular formulas is the actual number of atoms of each element in the compound while empirical formulas is the simplest or reduced ratio of the elements in the compound.

Thus,  

Molecular mass = n × Empirical mass

Where, n is any positive number from 1, 2, 3...

Thus if the molecular mass is known, then we can find the value of n which results to molecular formula.
