1. If there are 100 navy beans, 27 pinto beans and 173 blackeyed peas in a container, what is the percent abundance in the conta

iner by type of bean?
2. If your chemistry grade is broken down so that 70.0% of it is based on exams, 20.0% on lab reports and 10.0% on homework, and your average scores (out of 100 points in each area) are: exams: 85, labs: 75, homework: 96. What would your weighted average score be?

The answers to the two questions are:

1. The percent abundance in the container which has <u>100 navy</u>, <u>27 pinto</u>, and <u>173 black-eyed peas beans</u> is 33.3%, 9.0%, and 57.7% for navy bean, pinto bean, and black-eyed <em>peas </em>beans, respectively.

2. The <em>weighted </em>average score for the scores of 85, 75, 96 obtained from the evaluations of exams (20%), labs (75%), and homework (96%) is 84.1.      

1. The percent abundance by type of bean is given by:

\% = \frac{n}{n_{t}} \times 100   (1)

Where:

n: is the number of each type of beans

n_{t}: is the <em>total number</em> of <em>beans </em>

The <em>total number </em>of <em>beans</em> can be calculated by adding the number of all the types of beans:

n_{t} = n_{n} + n_{p} + n_{b}   (2)

Where:

n_{n}: is the number of navy beans = 100

n_{p}: is the number of pinto beans = 27

n_{b}: is the number of black-eyed <em>peas </em>beans = 173  

Hence, the total number of beans is (eq 2):

n_{t} = 100 + 27 + 173 = 300  

Now, the <em>percent abundance</em> by type of bean is (eq 1):

  • Navy beans

\%_{n} = \frac{100}{300} \times 100 = 33.3 \%

  • Pinto beans

\%_{p} = \frac{27}{300} \times 100 = 9.0 \%

  • Black-eyed peas beans

\%_{b} = \frac{173}{300} \times 100 = 57.7 \%

Hence, the percent abundance by type of bean is 33.3%, 9.0%, and 57.7% for navy bean, pinto bean, and black-eyed peas beans, respectively.

2. The average score (S) can be calculated as follows:

S = e*\%_{e} + l*\%_{l} + h*\%_{h}   (3)

Where:

e: is the score for exams = 85

l: is the score for lab reports = 75

h: is the score for homework = 96

%_{e}\%_{e}: is the <em>percent</em> for<em> exams</em> = 70.0%

\%_{l}: is the <em>percent </em>for <em>lab reports</em> = 20.0%

\%_{h}: is the <em>percent </em>for <em>homework </em>= 10.0%

Then, the <u>average score</u> is:

S = 85*0.70 + 75*0.20 + 96*0.10 = 84.1

We can see that if the score for each evaluation is 100, after multiplying every evaluation for its respective percent, the final average score would be 100.  

Therefore, the <em>weighted </em>average score will be 84.1.

(a) Write the reaction for the overall oxidation of propane (C3H8) with oxygen to produce CO2 and water.
Pavlova-9 [17]

Answer:

Oxidation is the loss of electrons, that is, addition of electronegetive elements, example is addition of oxygen. Also, removal of electropositive elements, example is removal of hydrogen.

Explanation: a) In the presence of excess oxygen, propane burns in air, which gives the following chemical equation:

C3H8 + 5O2⇒ 3CO2 + 4H2O +Heat

b) When insufficient oxygen or too much oxygen is present for complete combustion, the following equation is given:

2C3H8 + 9O2 ⇒ 4CO2 + 2CO + 8H2O + Heat

c) At the anode( negative terminal): O∧2- ⇒ O + e

Oxygen accepts electron.

d) At cathode ( positive terminal): H∧+ + e∧- ⇒ H

Hydrogen donates electron

d) Nernst equation for reversal potential is given as follows:

E= RT/zF  In{ion outside cell}/{ion inside cell}= 2.303 RT/zF In{ion outside cell}/{ion inside cell}

What is the graph that represents the relation between durability of titanium and temperature ?
matrenka [14]

The downward slope represents the relation between durability of titanium and temperature because with increase temperature, strength of titanium decreases.

<h3>Can titanium withstand temperatures?</h3>

Titanium alloys have high tensile strength to weight ratio, good toughness and an ability to bear extreme temperatures of more than 600 °Celsius. This shows that if temperature increase from more than 600 °Celsius, the strength of the titanium tends to decrease because it can not withstand to it so the graph comes to downward when the temperature exceeds to 600°C.

So we can conclude that the downward slope represents the relation between durability of titanium and temperature because with increase temperature, strength of titanium decreases.

Which type of bond is present in hydrogen sulfide (H2S)? The table of electronegativities is given
LuckyWell [14K]

Bonds formed between atoms can be classified as ionic and covalent

Ionic bonds are formed between atoms that have a high difference in the electronegativity values.

In contrast, bonds formed between atoms that have a difference in electronegativity lower than the ionic counterparts are polar covalent bonds.  If the atoms have very similar electronegativities, they form non-polar covalent bonds.

In H2S, the S atom is bonded to 2 H atoms. The electronegativity of H = 2.2 and S= 2.56. Since the difference is not high the bond formed will be covalent (polar covalent).
