The probability distribution of the random variable X is given by the formula P(X = x) = 0.09+0.01x^2 for x= 1,2,3,4,5 ). Find E(X).

The expected value of a discrete variable is defined as:

E(X) = ∑x*P(X=x) (for all possible values of x, in this case x = {1,2,3,4,5} ) 

(next, we will expand the summation and substitute in...

A group 2 metal, M, is reacted with water so that M + 2H2O --> M(OH)2 + H2. 0.162g of metal produces 97.0cm3 of gas at RTP. Identify M.

1 mole of gas is produces for 1 mole of metal used.

n (moles) = volume/24000             ----   This is because 1 mole of a gas occupies 24000cm3 of space, so it's...

Explain why the first ionisation energy of strontium is less than the first ionisation energy of calcium

Both of these are alkali-earth elements, this means that both elements have the same amount of outer-shell electrons (2 electrons). Strontium is a row below calcium, meaning it has an additional electron ...
