scientist is mixing a chemical solution for an experiment solution contains 3/8 of chemical solution 1/6 ounce saline solution what is the unit rate of chemical to saline solution?
3/8 x 1/6 + 3/48 divided by 3 + 1/16 is this right
is a chemist mixing two solutions together. A chemical reaction takes place, and the solution becomes warm. Which statement best describes what has happened?
i have that question an the answer choices are, 1/16 3/4 9/4 or 4. hopes this helps!(i know it wont but still)
1/16
To find the unit rate of chemical to saline solution, you need to divide the amount of chemical solution by the amount of saline solution.
Given that the chemical solution is 3/8 ounce and the saline solution is 1/6 ounce, the unit rate can be calculated by dividing 3/8 by 1/6.
To perform this division, you can use the following formula: (3/8) ÷ (1/6) = (3/8) × (6/1).
Multiplying the numerators gives you: 3 × 6 = 18.
Multiplying the denominators gives you: 8 × 1 = 8.
So, the unit rate of chemical to saline solution is 18/8 ounces.
Simplifying the fraction by dividing both the numerator and denominator by their greatest common divisor, which is 2 in this case, gives you: 9/4 ounces.
Therefore, the unit rate of chemical to saline solution is 9/4 ounces.
