Answer:
It isn't the correct dosage, you should get 8 tablets.
Step-by-step explanation:
First, if the doctors orders 120 mg twice a day, it means that you need 240 mg of medicine. That is calculated as:
120 mg * 2 = 240 mg
Then if each tablet has 30 mg, the number of tablets that you should get is calculated as:
[tex]\frac{240mg}{30mg} = 8[/tex]
So, 240 mg of medicine are equivalents to 8 tablets.
8 tablets are different of 6 tablets, so the dosage given by the nurse is incorrect and you should get 8 tablets every day.
In one country during one year, 804665 women gave birth. Of these women, 3738 gave birth to identical twins. Use these data to estimate how many women, out of a group of 1000 pregnant women, you might expect to give birth to identical twins. Choose the two correct options below. Select one or more: 0 The expected number of women is 5. o The expected number of women is 46. The expected number of women is 465. The calculation is 3738 x 1000 800927 3738 x 1000 804665 The calculation is
Answer:
The expected number of women expected to give birth to identical twins is 5.
The calculation is:
[tex]x = \frac{3738*1,000}{804,665}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a proportionality problem, that can be solved by a rule of three. Here, the measures(the number of women that gave birth to identical twins and the nuber of women that gave birth) are directly related. It means that we have a direct rule of three(cross multiplication).
The problem states that of the 804,665 women that gave birth, 3,738 gave birth to identical twins. It asks of 1,000 women, how many are expected to give birth to identical twins? So, 3,738 of 804665 is how much of 1,000?
3,738 - 804,665
x - 1,000
[tex]804,665x = 3738*1,000[/tex]
[tex]x = \frac{3738*1,000}{804,665}[/tex]
[tex]x = 4.64[/tex]
Rounding up, the expected number of women expected to give birth to identical twins is 5.
A pharmacist attempts to weigh 0.375 g of morphine sulfate on a balance of dubious accuracy. When checked on a highly accurate balance, the weight is found to be 0.400 g. Calculate the percentage of error in the first weighing.
Answer: [tex]6.25\%[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given: A pharmacist attempts to weigh 0.375 g of morphine sulfate on a balance of dubious accuracy. When checked on a highly accurate balance, the weight is found to be 0.400 g.
i.e. Estimated weight = 0.375 g and Actual weight = 0.400 g
Now, the percentage of error in the first weighing is given by :-
[tex]\%\text{ Error}=\dfrac{|\text{Estimate-Actual}|}{\text{Actual}}\times100\\\\=\dfrac{|0.375-0.400|}{0.400}\times100\\\\=\dfrac{|-0.025|}{0.400}\times100\\\\=\dfrac{0.025}{0.4}\times100\\\\=\dfrac{25\times10}{4\times1000}\times100=\dfrac{25}{4}=6.25\%[/tex]
Hence, the percentage of error in the first weighing = [tex]6.25\%[/tex]
36.25= 45.5% of ____
Answer:
36.25 is equal to the 45.5% of 79.67
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this you just have to find the value that represents the 100%.
To do this, you can use the Rule of Three that allows you to solve problems of proportions.
In this case, you know that the 45.5% of the magnitude X is 36.25, now you have to find the value which corresponds to the 100%.
Mathematically it will be:
[tex]\frac{X}{36.25} =\frac{100}{45.5}[/tex]
Then you have to solve the equation to find X:
[tex]X=\frac{100}{45.5}*36.25[/tex]
And finally, the answer is:
[tex]X=79.67[/tex]
A division of the Gibson Corporation manufactures bicycle pumps. Each pump sells for $10, and the variable cost of producing each unit is 60% of the selling price. The monthly fixed costs incurred by the division are $50,000. What is the break-even point for the division? (Round your answers to the nearest whole number.)
(x,y)=
Answer:
12,500 units
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Selling cost of the pump = $10
Variable cost of producing each unit = 60% of selling cost
or
Variable cost of producing each unit = 0.60 × $10 = $6
Monthly fixed cost = $50,000
Now,
The profit per unit = Selling cost - Variable cost
or
The profit per unit = $10 - $6 = $4
Therefore,
The breakeven point = [tex]\frac{\textup{Fixed cost}}{\textup{Profit per unit}}[/tex]
or
the breakeven point = [tex]\frac{\textup{50,000}}{\textup{4}}[/tex]
or
the breakeven point = 12,500 units
A particular brand of dishwasher soap is sold in three sizes: 25 oz, 45 oz, and 60 oz. Twenty percent of all purchasers select a 25-oz box, 50% select a 45-oz box, and the remaining 30% choose a 60-oz box. Let X1 and X2 denote the package sizes selected by two independently selected purchasers. (a) Determine the sampling distribution of X. x 25 35 45 42.5 52.5 60 p(x) Calculate E(X). E(X) = oz Compare E(X) to μ. E(X) > μ E(X) < μ E(X) = μ
Answer:
(a) Sampling distribution
P(25) = 0,04
P(35) = 0.1 + 0.1 = 0,2
P(42,5) = 0.06 + 0.06 = 0,12
P(45) = 0,25
P(52,5) = 0.15 + 0.15 = 0,3
P(60) = 0,09
(b) E(X) = 45.5 oz
(c) E(X) = μ
Step-by-step explanation:
The variable we want to compute is
[tex]X=(X1+X2)/2[/tex]
For this we need to know all the possible combinations of X1 and X2 and the probability associated with them.
(a) Sampling distribution
Calculating all the 9 combinations (3 repeated, so we end up with 6 unique combinations):
P(25) = P(X1=25) * P(X2=25) = p25*p25 = 0.2 * 0.2 = 0,04
P(35) = p25*p45+p45*p25 = 0.2*0.5 + 0.5*0.2 = 0.1 + 0.1 = 0,2
P(42,5) = p25*p60 + p60*p25 = 0.2*0.3 + 0.3*0.2 = 0.06 + 0.06 = 0,12
P(45) = p45*p45 = 0.5 * 0.5 = 0,25
P(52,5) = p45*p60 + p60*p45 = 0.5*0.3 + 0.3*0.5 = 0.15 + 0.15 = 0,3
P(60) = p60*p60 = 0.3*0.3 = 0,09
(b) Using the sample distribution, E(X) can be expressed as:
[tex]E(X)=\sum_{i=1}^{6}P_{i}*X_{i}\\E(X)=0.04*25+0.2*35+0.12*42.5+0.3*52.5+0.09*60 = 45.5[/tex]
The value of E(X) is 45.5 oz.
(c) The value of μ can be calculated as
[tex]\mu=\sum_{i=1}^{3}P_{i}*X_{i}\\\mu=0.2*25+0.5*45+0.3*60=45.5[/tex]
We can conclude that E(X)=μ
We could have arrived to this conclusion by applying
[tex]E(X)=E((X1+X2)/2)=E(X1)/2+E(X2)/2\\\\\mu = E(X1)=E(X2)\\\\E(X)=\mu /2+ \mu /2 = \mu[/tex]
The following question has two parts. First, answer part A. Then, answer part B.
Part A
A high school athlete ran the 100 meter sprint in 13.245 seconds. Round the time to the nearest tenth. Enter the answer in the box.
_______ seconds
Part B
Explain how you arrived at the answer. Include any rules that you followed.
Answer:
Part A: 13.2
Part B: see below
Step-by-step explanation:
Part A:
13.245 rounded to tenths is 13.2
Part B:
The rule is ...
Add 1 in the number place you're rounding to if the digit to its right is 5 or more. Drop (or zero) all digits to the right of the place you're rounding to.
Here, the digit to the right of the tenths place is 4, so no action is taken other than dropping digits to the right of the tenths place.
When considering the normal power demand as reported by a utility company, the power demand at midnight is 1040 MW. During the first five hours, the power demand rises to 1600 MW, and at the eight-hour mark, the power demand rises to 1960 MW. What is the average rate of change of the power demand with respect to time for the period from 5 hours to 8 hours after midnight? 360 MW 282.5 MW/hour 120 MW/hour 1780 MW/hour None of these
Answer:
120 MW/hour
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula of the average rate of change between two points in a function is:
Average rate of change (ARC) = f(x2) -f(x1)/(x2-x1)
Let's think the power demad as a function d(x) depending of the hour of the day, so the variable x= hour of the day.
Now we have:
d(5)= 1600
d(8)= 1960
If we apply the mentioned ARC formula = [d(8)-d(5)] MW/(8-5)hour= (1960-1600)MW/3hour= 360/3=120 MW/Hour
A student has a GPA of 2.25 after accumulating 20 credit hours. If she is enrolled in 17 additional credit hours and desires a 2.9 GPA after those additional courses, what minimum GPA in those additional hours would she need to earn? It's OK if you end up with a crazy number like something greater than a 4.0. That just means this student can't quite get there in that number of hours. You can come back to this question and correct your answer at any time before you submit the entire CW/IW module.
Answer:
3.66
Step-by-step explanation:
Having a 2.9 GPA means there was a certain quantity of points divided by a quantity of credit hours.
In this case 37 hours because of the 20 given to obtain 2.25 and 17 additional hours to get 2.9
So to know the points to get 2.9, we multiply 2.9 by the hours (37)
gpa=[tex]\frac{points}{hours}[/tex]
gpa*hours= points
[tex]2.9*37= 107.3 points[/tex]
Now we need to find out how many points were given in 20 credit hours to get 2.25;
we do a similar calculation by multiplying 2.25 by the credit hours given to obtain that gpa.
gpa*hours=points
[tex]2.25*20=45[/tex]
Then from 45 points to get 107.3 we need to know the difference
[tex]107.3-45=62.3[/tex]
and because those points are needed in 17 additional credit hours, we make a division and we get
[tex]gpa=\frac{points}{hours}[/tex]
[tex]gpa=\frac{62.3}{17}=3.66[/tex]
So the student needs to make a 3.66 gpa minimum in order to improve her current 2.25 gpa to 2.9
The student needs to achieve a minimum GPA of 3.65 over the 17 additional credit hours to reach their goal of a 2.9 overall GPA, showing the importance of planning and effort.
Explanation:To calculate the minimum GPA needed in the additional 17 hours for the student to achieve an overall GPA of 2.9 after already earning a 2.25 GPA over 20 credit hours, we will use a weighted average formula. Currently, the student has accumulated (2.25 * 20) = 45 quality points from the 20 credit hours. To reach a 2.9 GPA after adding 17 more credit hours, the student will need a total of (20 + 17) * 2.9 = 107.1 quality points.
Subtracting the quality points already earned from the total needed gives us 107.1 - 45 = 62.1 quality points needed over the 17 additional hours. Therefore, the minimum GPA required across these hours is 62.1 / 17 ≈ 3.65. This calculation indicates that, even though the target seems high, clearly understanding the effort needed can help in planning the study strategy accordingly.
A student received the following grades last semester. Find the student's semester grade point average. An A is Algebra (3 credits), a B in History ( 3 credits), A in sociology ( 3 credits) a D in English ( 3credits) and a C in seminar ( 2credits). An A is worth 4 points, a B is worth 3 points a C is worth 2 points and a D is worth 1 point.
Answer:
If it is a simple average, the average is 2.8 points.
If it is a weigthed-by-credits average, the average is 2.86 points.
Step-by-step explanation:
To calculate the simple average of this 5 grades, we sum all the points and divide it by 5:
In Algebra: A = 4 points
In History: B = 3 points
In Sociology: A = 4 points
In English: D = 1 point
In Seminar: C = 2 points
Average = (4+3+4+1+2)/5 = 2.8 points
If the average is weighted by the credits, we must add each score multiplied by the credits and, in total, divide it by the total amount of credits.
[tex]weighted-average = \sum(points_i*credits_i)/\sum(credits_i)\\\\weighted-average = (4*3+3*3+4*3+1*3+2*2)/(3+3+3+3+2)\\weighted-average = 40 / 14 = 2.86[/tex]
Final answer:
To find the student's semester GPA, assign points to each grade based on the grading scale, multiply by the credits for each course, sum these totals, and divide by total credit hours. The student's GPA is approximately 2.86.
Explanation:
To calculate the student's semester grade point average (GPA), we first multiply each grade by its respective credit hours, then sum these numbers, and finally divide by the total number of credit hours. Here is the breakdown:
Algebra: A (4 points) × 3 credits = 12
History: B (3 points) × 3 credits = 9
Sociology: A (4 points) × 3 credits = 12
English: D (1 point) × 3 credits = 3
Seminar: C (2 points) × 2 credits = 4
Next, we add these totals: 12 + 9 + 12 + 3 + 4 = 40. The sum of the credit hours is 3 + 3 + 3 + 3 + 2 = 14. The GPA is calculated as the total points divided by the total credit hours, which is:
GPA = Total Points / Total Credit Hours = 40 / 14 ≈ 2.86
Therefore, the student's semester GPA is approximately 2.86.

An article reports, "attendance dropped 4% this year, to 300. What was the attendance before the drop to the nearest whole number)?
Answer:
312
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the attendance before the drop be x
Now we are given that attendance dropped 4% this year
So new attendance = [tex]x-4\% \times x[/tex]
= [tex]x-\frac{4}{100} \times x[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{96x}{100}[/tex]
We are also given that attendance dropped 4% this year, to 300
So, [tex]\frac{96x}{100}= 300[/tex]
[tex]x= 300 \times \frac{100}{96}[/tex]
[tex]x=312.5[/tex]
Hence the attendance before the drop was 312
The proper interpretation of a 95% confidence interval is: A. We are 95% confident that the point estimate is between the lower confidence limit and upper confidence limit. B. We are 95% confident that the population parameter is between the lower confidence limit and upper confidence limit. C. We are 95% confident that the test statistic is between the lower confidence limit and upper confidence limit. D. We are 95% confident that the sample mean is between the lower confidence limit and upper confidence limit.
Answer: B. We are 95% confident that the population parameter is between the lower confidence limit and upper confidence limit.
Step-by-step explanation:
In statistics, we know that the interpretation of [tex](1-\alpha)\%[/tex] level of confidence interval is that we are [tex](1-\alpha)\%[/tex] sure that the true population parameter lies in it.
Therefore, the proper interpretation of a 95% confidence interval is that we are 95% confident that the population parameter is between the lower confidence limit and upper confidence limit.
Final answer:
The correct interpretation of a 95% confidence interval is that we are 95% confident that the population parameter is within the interval. The confidence interval represents the range within which the true population parameter lies, with a certain level of confidence, not the prediction of sample means or point estimates.
Explanation:
The correct interpretation of a 95% confidence interval is B: We are 95% confident that the population parameter is between the lower confidence limit and upper confidence limit. This means that if we were to take many samples from the population and construct a confidence interval from each sample, we would expect about 95% of those intervals to contain the actual population parameter, such as the population mean. It's important to note that the confidence interval does not predict where individual point estimates or sample means will fall. Rather, it expresses the reliability of the estimate of the population parameter based on the sampled data.
A dress cost twice as much as a skirt. Mom bought 3 dresses and 2 skirts. She gave the cashier $1000 and received $300 in change.How much did a dress cost?
Answer:
$175 = Cost of single dress
Step-by-step explanation:
It is provided that cost of dress is twice that of a skirt.
Let say, cost of skirt = x
Total things bought 3 dresses and 2 skirts.
Cost of single dress = 2x
Cost of all items = 3 [tex]\times[/tex] 2x + 2 [tex]\times[/tex] x = $1,000 - $300 = $700
6x + 2x = $700
x = 700/8 = $87.50
Cost of single dress = 2x = $87.50 [tex]\times[/tex] 2 = $175
Two exterior angles of a triangle equal 100° and 150°. Find all the interior angles.
Answer:
The interior angles for this triangle are 80º, 30º and 70º.
Step-by-step explanation:
The sum of a interior angle with it's respective exterior angle is also always 180º.
So, for the exterior angle that is 100º, we can find the first interior angle of the triangle
100º + A1 = 180º
A1 = 180º - 100º
A1 = 80º
The first interior angle of this triangle is A1 = 80º;
For the exterior angle that is 150º, we can find the second interior angle of the triangle.
150º + A2 = 180º
A2 = 180º - 150º
A2 = 30º
The second interior angle of this triangle is A2 = 30º.
From here, to find the third interior angle, we apply the following definition
The sum of the three interior angles of a triangle is always 180º.
So:
A1 + A2 + A3 = 180º
80º + 30º + A3 = 180º
110º + A3 = 180º
A3 = 180º - 110º
A3 = 70º
The third interior angle of this triangle is A3 = 70º.
The interior angles for this triangle are 80º, 30º and 70º.
If a person receive a heritage and plans to invert one part at 9% and $2,000 more that the amount before in an invert less secured that gave 10%. How much the person need toinvert in each interest to win $1150 at year, by interest concept?
Answer:
The person has to invest $5000 at 9% and $7000 at 10%.
Step-by-step explanation:
As stated in the problem, we have an ammount C that the person invest at 9% and an ammount (C+2000) that it is invested at 10%.
To gain $1150 a year, the ammount C needs to satisfy this equation:
[tex]C*0.09+(C+2000)*0.10=1150[/tex]
Applying distributive property,
[tex]0.09C+0.10C+200=1150\\0.19C=1150-200[/tex]
[tex]C=950/0.19\\C=5000[/tex]
So the person has to invest C=$5000 at 9% and (C+2000)=$7000 at 10% to gain $1150 of interest yearly.

6. Convert each of the following from Roman Numerals to Hindu-Arabic numerals a. CXXVIII b. XCDCCCXXVII
Answer:
A)128
B)717
Step-by-step explanation:
In Roman numerals each letter have a numerical value in Hindu-Arabic numerals.
These values are:
I = 1
V = 5
X = 10
L = 50
C =100
D = 500
M = 1000
a) CXXVIII = 100+10+10+5+1+1+1 = 128
b) XCDCCCXXVII = 500+100+100+10+10+7-100-10 = 717
In this question we subtracted the value of XC(-100-10) because it was preceding or appeared before a larger value and hence, we subtract these values from the value of DCCCXXVII(500+100+100+100+10+10+7).
This could be understood with the help of following example: If we calculate the value of CD it would be (500-100) = 400. Now, XCD = (400-10) = 390.
Use the fact that the world population was 2560 million in 1950 and 3040 million in 1960 to model the population of the world in the second half of the 20th century. (Assume that the growth rate is proportional to the population size.) What is the relative growth rate? Use the model to estimate the world population in 1992 and to predict the population in the year 2030. SOLUTION We measure the time t in years and let t = 0 in the year 1950. We measure the population P(t) in millions of people. Then P(0) = 2560 and P(10) = 3040. Since we are assuming that dP/dt = kP, this theorem gives the following. (Round to six decimal places.)
Answer:
Let the growth function that shows the population in millions after x years,
[tex]P=P_0(1+r)^x[/tex]
Where,
[tex]P_0[/tex] = initial population,
r = growth rate per year,
Suppose the population is estimated since 1950,
Thus, if x = 0, P = 2560,
[tex]\implies 2560 = P_0 (1+r)^0\implies P_0 = 2560[/tex]
Now, if x = 10 ( that is, on 1960 ), P = 3040,
[tex]3040=2560(1+r)^{10}\implies r = 0.017[/tex]
Hence, the required function that shows the population after x years,
[tex]P=2560(1.017)^x[/tex]
If x = 42,
The population in 1992 would be,
[tex]P=2560(1.017)^{42}\approx 5196.608365\text{ millions}[/tex]
if x = 80,
The population in 2030 would be,
[tex]P=2560(1.017)^{80}\approx 9860.891929\text{ millions}[/tex]
Final answer:
The world population growth can be modeled using exponential growth with a relative growth rate calculated from given data. The relative growth rate, k, was found to be approximately 0.017355. Using this rate, we can estimate past and predict future populations; however, demographic trends show that actual growth rates are slowing.
Explanation:
To model the world population using a proportional growth rate, we employ the exponential growth model where dP/dt = kP. The world population was 2560 million in 1950 (P(0) = 2560) and 3040 million in 1960 (P(10) = 3040). We will use these data points to find the relative growth rate k.
Finding the Relative Growth Rate
The general solution of the differential equation is P(t) = P(0)e^(kt), where e is the base of the natural logarithm. Inserting our initial conditions:
P(0) = 2560, which implies C = 2560 where C is the initial population.
P(10) = 3040 yields 3040 = 2560e^(10k).
Dividing both sides by 2560 gives 3040/2560 = e^(10k), and then taking the natural logarithm of both sides we find ln(3040/2560) = 10k. Therefore, k ≈ ln(1.1875)/10. By calculating, k ≈ 0.017355 (rounded to six decimal places).
Estimating World Population for 1992 and Predicting for 2030
Using this growth rate, we can estimate the world population for any year t with P(t) = 2560e^(0.017355t):
For the year 1992 (t=42 years since 1950), P(42) ≈ 2560e^(0.017355*42).
For the year 2030 (t=80 years since 1950), P(80) ≈ 2560e^(0.017355*80).
Demographic trends suggest a slowing growth rate. Between 1965 and 1980, the annual rate was 2%, while predictions for 2005-2015 showed a decline to 1.1%. These numbers imply increasing doubling times and changing dynamics in world population growth.
Kyle, a single taxpayer, worked as a free-lance software engineer for the first three months of 2018. During that time, he earned $94,000 of self-employment income. On April 1, 2018, Kyle took a job as a full-time software engineer with one of his former clients, Hoogle Inc. From April through the end of the year, Kyle earned $188,000 in salary.
What amount of FICA taxes (self-employment and employment related) does Kyle owe for the year?
Total amount owed by Kyle = $21573
Step-by-step explanation:In the question,
Amount of money earned by Kyle in first three months = $94,000
Amount of money earned by Kyle in Remaining months working as a Full Time = $188, 000
Total Money earned by Kyle = $282,000
Now,
We know that the Percent of FICA(Federal Insurance Contributions Act) taxes are,
Social Security tax = 6.2 %
Medicare tax = 1.45 %
So,
Total percent of tax paid = 7.65 %
So,
Total amount paid in taxes = 7.65 % of Total Money earned by Kyle
Therefore,
Total amount paid in tax = 0.0765 x 282000 = $21573

Add 0.5 kg, 50 mg, and 2.5 dg. Reduce the result to grams.
Answer:
0.25g + 0.05g + 500g = 500.30g
Step-by-step explanation:
The first step is converting everything to grams, by rules of three. Then we add.
In a rule of three problem, the first step is identifying the measures and how they are related, if their relationship is direct of inverse.
When the relationship between the measures is direct, as the value of one measure increases, the value of the other measure is going to increase too.
When the relationship between the measures is inverse, as the value of one measure increases, the value of the other measure will decrease.
Unit conversion problems, like this one, is an example of a direct relationship between measures.
First step: 0.5kg to g
Each kg has 1000g. So
1kg - 1000g
0.5kg - xg
x = 1000*0.5
x = 500g
0.5kg = 500g
Second step: 50mg to g
Each g has 1000mg. So:
1g - 1000mg
xg - 50mg
1000x = 50
[tex]x = \frac{50}{1000}[/tex]
x = 0.05g
50mg = 0.05g
Third step: 2.5dg to g
Each g has 10dg. So:
1g - 10dg
xg - 2.5dg
2.5x = 10
[tex]x = \frac{2.5}{10}[/tex]
x = 0.25g
2.5 dg = 0.25g
Final step: Add
0.25g + 0.05g + 500g = 500.30g
Adding 0.5 kg, 50 mg, and 2.5 dg gives a total of 500.30 grams once all the units are converted to grams.
Explanation:First, let's convert everything to grams as it's the unit we're asked to report the result in.
0.5 kg is equal to 500 grams (1 kilogram = 1000 grams)50 mg is equal to 0.05 grams (1 gram = 1000 milligrams)2.5 dg is equal to 0.25 grams (1 gram = 10 decigrams)To find the total, we just need to add these numbers together: 500 grams + 0.05 grams + 0.25 grams = 500.30 grams. So, when you add 0.5 kg, 50 mg, and 2.5 dg together and convert it to grams, your answer is 500.30 grams.

Answer:
(a) even: J, K, M, O; odd: L, N
(b) L and O are connected to J
(c) N is of degree 3
Step-by-step explanation:
Count the edge ends that intersect each vertex. You get ...
J-2, K-2, L-3, M-2, N-3, O-4
These numbers are the degree of the vertex.
a) Vertices with even degree are J, K, M, O, since these have degrees of 2, 2, 2, and 4, respectively--all even numbers.
Vertices with odd degree are L and N, since these both have degree 3, an odd number.
__
b) The vertices that are adjacent to J are the ones at the other ends of the edges that intersect vertex J. One of those two edges connects to vertex L; the other to vertex O. J is adjacent to L and O.
__
c) When we counted edges in part (a), we found vertex N to be of degree 3.

Molecules of species A are reacting with molecules of species B. The concentration of A, given in moles per liter, follows the equation
CA = CA0 ( 1-e-k·t )
where t is time, given in minutes, CA is concentration in M, and CA0 is the initial concentration. What would be the units for the parameter k?
Answer:
Units for parameter k would be [tex]minutes^{-1}[/tex].
Step-by-step explanation:
The concentration of CA0 is given in M (moles per liter), which is the unit for CA; if we show units inside parenthesis in the equation, it would be:
[tex]CA (M)=CA0 (M) *(1-e-k(?)*t(minutes))[/tex]
For the concentration units of CA0 not to be affected by the units of the factor (1-e-k*t), this factor would have to be a number without units.
Since 1 is a constant without units, for the constant e to be able to subtract from 1 it would have to be a number without units, which also applies to the factor k*t.
For the factor k*t to be a number without units, k must have units that can be canceled when multiplied by t, which is given in minutes, so k must have units of [tex]\frac{1}{minutes} =minutes^{-1}[/tex]
This can be confirmed by operating the equation using only its units (units of parameter k are noted by a question mark):
[tex]M=M(0-0-?*minutes)[/tex]
[tex]\frac{M}{M} =?*minutes[/tex]
[tex]1=?*minutes[/tex]
[tex]\frac{1}{minutes}=?[/tex]
[tex]minutes^{-1}=?[/tex]
