Suppose a hash table has 10 buckets and 40 elements stored using separate chaining. What is the load factor (α)?

Consider the following undirected graph with 6 vertices (1–6) and the edges listed in the order they are processed: {1, 2} {2, 3} {3, 4} {4, 5} {2, 5} {5, 6} Assuming a Disjoint Set structure with initial sets {{1}, {2}, {3}, {4}, {5}, {6}} is used for detecting cycles, answer the following 1. Which edge first creates a cycle? [x] 2. After processing the first four edges ({1,2},{2,3},{3,4},{4,5}), what is the set containing vertex 1? [y] 3. How many disjoint sets remain after a cycle is found using the disjoint set data structure? [z] 4. How many union operations actually merge two different sets before detecting a cycle? [w]

Below is an image of a coffee cup calorimeter with 89.4 g or water.  The temperature of water is measured before and after the addition of an 30.0 g of unknown metal.  How much energy is gained or lost by the water.  The specific heat of water is s = 4.184 .

The acid HA dissociates according to the image below. Determine what the acid could be based on how it dissociates.

At 25 oC a researcher measures the pH of a solution, an image of the pH meter is shown below determine the correct statement regarding the solution. 

A scientist measures out the following volume of stock hydrochloric acid with a concentration of 10.5 M (the volume of the stock added is shown in the figure of the graduated cylinder below with the arrow pointing to the bottom of the meniscus). The solution is diluted to a final volume of 250.0 mL, what is the final concentration of the diluted solution.
