Science Class Bonus Challenge Question

As promised from Tuesday's class, sorry its just a little later than planned.

This is more of a math problem than science...Sorry! 3 point bonus...first correct answer (all 3 parts) gets the bonus. I will not tell if you get one, two, or none of the parts correct.

Suppose a runner wants to know how much less weight he carries overall for the length of a marathon if he switches from shoes that weigh 10.5 oz per shoe to a pair that weighs 8.3 oz. Typically, for him, it takes about 1000 steps to run a mile and a marathon is 26.2 miles long. How much total weight does he save?

For full credit you must have
part 1 - answer in ounces
part 2 - answer in pounds
part 3 - answer in kg

round 2

well that didn't take long....Jenny Huynh successfully put just a 4 in front "HF" and a 2 in front of "H2O" to get the bonus.

Round 2 will be harder....

#48

I will give a round 3 if time permits

Physical Science equation balance challenge

For 3 bonus points (all or nothing), balance #16 please.

It says SiO2 + HF ----- SiF4 + H2O

I cannot shrink the subscripts, but you can tell all those numbers are subscripts.

I will either be in room 331 or in the cafeteria for the rest of the day.

If this one is solved before end of 3rd block, I will put another up for 4th block. Must be turned in before 3:00 on MY watch.

good luck
