The Amount of Drying Time for the Paint Applied to a Plastic

question 15

True/False

The amount of drying time for the paint applied to a plastic component part is thought to be uniformly distributed between 30 and 60 minutes. Currently, the automated process selects the part from the drying bin after the part has been there for 50 minutes. Based on this, the probability that a part selected will not be dry is approximately 0.33.

Reverse Reaction

A reverse reaction is a chemical reaction that occurs in the opposite direction of the forward reaction, resulting in the conversion of the reaction products back into the original reactants.

Forward Reaction

A chemical reaction that proceeds in the direction of forming products from reactants, as initially written in a chemical equation.

Dynamic Equilibrium

A situation in which two opposing processes occur at the same rate, leading to no net change in the system.

Products

Substances that are formed as a result of a chemical reaction, appearing on the right side of a chemical equation.
