This problem is providing us with the mass equivalent to one troy ounce. Thus, the troy ounces of gold in one short ton of average Nevada ore is required and found to be the 0.103 otz according to the following dimensional analysis.

<h3>Dimensional analysis</h3>

In chemistry, a raft of problems do not always provide an equation in order to be solved yet dimensional analysis can be applied, so as to obtain the desired amount in the required units.

Thus, since this problem asks for try ounces in an average Nevada ore,  which has 3.2 grams of gold per short ton of ore, one can solve the following setup in order to obtain the required answer in otz:

\frac{3.2gAu}{1short-ton}*1short-ton*\frac{1otz}{31.1g} \\

Where the short tons are cancelled out as well as the grams, in order to obtain:

0.103 otz

Answer:

A

You do not know if the advertisement is lying to you. Controlled experiments will be biased and personal websites will say what they think, not following the data & science.

The compound AlP (aluminum phosphide) is a compound semiconductor having mixed ionic and covalent bonding. Calculate the fractio
netineya [11]

Answer:

0.086

Explanation:

The formula for calculating the fraction of a covalent bond can be expressed as:

= exp (-0.25ΔE²)

= exp[-0.25(E_{Al}-E_{p})^2]---(1)

from the equation above;

E_{Al} = the electronegativity of aluminum

E_P = electronegativity of phosphorus

Using the data from periodic table figures;

E_{Al} = 1.5

E_P = 2.1

∴

fraction of the covalent = exp[-0.25(1.5 - 2.1)²]

fraction of the covalent = exp(-0.09)

fraction of the covalent = 0.914

Now, the fraction of ionic bond will be = 1 - the fraction  of covalent bond

= 1 - 0.914

∴

the fraction of bond that is ionic = 0.086

I need HELP!!!<br><br> Do the benefits of nuclear power outweigh the risks?
Georgia [21]
While there is no such thing as 100 percent safe, having nuclear energy is much safer than you think. It's thousands of times safer than conventional coal and other fossil-fuel-derived energy, not to mention the specter of environmental disaster from continued use of carbon-based energy sources.
