Abaker is decorating cupcakes using 3 cherries for every 1 cupcake. if the baker has 12 cherries and 5 cupcakes, what is the theoretical yield? a. 2 decorated cupcakes b. 3 decorated cupcakes c. 4 decorated cupcakes d. 5 decorated cupcakes

Option (C) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Since there are only 12 cherries for decorating the cup cakes and each cupcake has 3 cherries. Therefore, 12 divided by 3 equals 4, this means that only four cupcakes can be decorated out of the five cupcakes.

Mathematically,     = 4

Hence, we can conclude that the theoretical yield is four decorated cups.

answer:

the answer is 6 valence electrons.

explanation:

valence is the # of electrons on the outer most shell of an atom.

oxygen has 6.

although, the valency of oxygen is 2, because it only needs to make 2 covalent bonds, or gain 2 electrons, to achieve the stable octet configuration of a noble gas.

that's it!

if you need further assistance, let me know: )
