The equation of line 1 is y=3x-2 and the equation of line 2 is 3y-9x+5=0. Show the two lines are parallel.

The two lines are parallel if they have the same gradient, so for a line in the form y=mx+c, m of the two lines must be the same.Line 1 is already in this form so we need to rearrange line 2 to be in this fo...

85 cm^3 of 0.05 mol/dm^3 sulfuric acid is used to neutralise 15 cm^3 of sodium hydroxide of an unknown concentration. Given that the chemical formula of the reaction is 2NaOH + H2SO4 => NA2SO4 + 2H2O, find the concentration of the sodium hydroxide.

Firstly, calculate the number of moles of sulfuric acid that reacts with the sodium hydroxide, using the equation; n = MV/1000 , where n is the number of moles, M is the concentration (in mol/dm 3 ), and V i...
