A student has 2 rubber balls of the same size and weight. Ball A is still and Ball B is rolling.Ball B hits Ball A, and Ball A start moving. Why does Ball A start moving?
A). Ball A is repelled by Ball B ,
B). Ball B is attracted to Ball A ,
C). Ball B transfers energy to Ball A ,
D). Ball A transfers energy to Ball B

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

C). Ball B transfers energy to Ball A

Explanation:

The motion of ball A is a because of the energy it acquires.

Ball A initially due to its position posses potential energy due to its position.

The moving ball B has kinetic energy due to the motion of this ball.

Due to the collision, momentum is transferred from the moving ball to the static one. As the momentum of the static ball changes, potential energy is converted to kinetic energy. The magnitude of the energy possessed by the static ball must be lesser than that of the moving.

Answers

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

A reducing agent in chemistry is any substance that accepts electrons and its oxidation number is decreased in a redox reaction.

Manganese occurs in a variety of oxidation states; +7, +6, +5, +4, +3, +2. This makes it an exceptionally good reducing agent since it can accept different number of electrons and change from one oxidation state to another.

The commonest compound of manganese used as a strong oxidizing agent is KMnO4 in which manganese has an oxidation number of +7.

There are gaps in the fossil record because many early forms of life were soft-bodied, which means that they have left few traces behind.

Acetylene gas is often used in welding torches because of the very high heat produced when it reacts with oxygen O2 gas, producing carbon dioxide gas and water vapor. Calculate the moles of oxygen needed to produce 1.3mol of carbon dioxide. Be sure your answer has a unit symbol, if necessary, and round it to 2 significant digits.

Answers

Answer:  

3.2 moles of carbon dioxide

Explanation:

When C₂H₂ reacts with O₂ the chemical reaction is:

C₂H₂ + 5/2O₂ → 2CO₂ + H₂O

Where 1 mole of acetylene produce 2 moles of carbon dioxide.

Based on the chemical equation of this reaction, there are produced twice the moles of acetylene in moles of carbon dioxide assuming a compete reaction.

If 1.6 moles of acetylene reacts there are produced:

1.6 moles Acetylene * (2 moles Carbon Dioxide / 1 mole Acetylene) =

3.2 moles of carbon dioxide

Answers

Answer:

4.289 mol

Explanation:

Given that the molar mass of HBr (known as Hydrobromic Acid or Hydrogen Bromide) has a molar mass of 80.91 g/mol.

To find the number of moles, we have the formula

(Grams of the substance ÷ moles of the substance) * (molar mass of the substance in grams ÷ one mol)

Here the Grams of the substance = 347grams,

Moles of the substance =?

Molar mass of the substance = 80.91 g/mol

By cross multiplying, we have

347 grams * 1 mol = Z * (80.91)

Z = 347 grams ÷ 80.91g/mol

Z = 4.289 mol

A 20-g sample of sugar is dissolved in 59 g of water. The concentration of the solution is

Hint Water is a solvent​

Answers

Answer:

0.98 M

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of sugar = 20 g

Mass of water = 59 g

Concentration of solution = ?

Solution:

1 g = 0.01 L

59 g× 0.01 L/1 g

0.059 L

Concentration formula:

C = m/v

m = moles of solute

v = volume of solution

Number of moles of sugar:

Number of moles = mass/molar mass

Number of moles = 20 g/ 342.3 g/mol

Number of moles = 0.058 mol

Now we will calculate the concentration:

C = 0.058 mol/0.059 L

C = 0.98 mol/L

C = 0.98 M

Answers

Answer:

Approximately [tex]0.224\;\rm L[/tex], assuming that this reaction took place under standard temperature and pressure, and that [tex]\rm CO_2[/tex] behaves like an ideal gas. Also assume that the reaction went to completion.

Explanation:

The first step is to find out: which species is the limiting reactant?

Assume that [tex]\rm CaCO_3[/tex] is the limiting reactant. How many moles of [tex]\rm CO_2[/tex] would be produced?

Look up the relative atomic mass of [tex]\rm Ca[/tex], [tex]\rm C[/tex], and [tex]\rm O[/tex] on a modern periodic table:

[tex]\rm Ca[/tex]: [tex]40.078[/tex].[tex]\rm C[/tex]: [tex]12.011[/tex].[tex]\rm O[/tex]: [tex]15.999[/tex].

Calculate the formula mass of [tex]\rm CaCO_3[/tex]:

[tex]\begin{aligned} & M(\rm CaCO_3) \\ &= 40.078 + 12.011 + 3 \times 15.999 \\&= 100.086\; \rm g \cdot mol^{-1}\end{aligned}[/tex].

Calculate the number of moles of formula units in [tex]1\; \rm g[/tex] of [tex]\rm CaCO_3[/tex] using its formula mass:

[tex]\begin{aligned}& n(\mathrm{CaCO_3})\\&= \frac{m(\mathrm{CaCO_3})}{M(\mathrm{CaCO_3})} \\ &= \frac{1\; \rm g}{100.086\; \rm g \cdot mol^{-1}} \approx 1.00\times 10^{-2}\; \rm mol\end{aligned}[/tex].

In the balanced chemical equation, the ratio between the coefficient of [tex]\rm CaCO_3[/tex] and that of [tex]\rm CO_2[/tex] is [tex]\displaystyle \frac{n(\mathrm{CO_2})}{n(\mathrm{CaCO_3})} = 1[/tex].

In other words, for each mole of [tex]\rm CaCO_3[/tex] formula units consumed, one mole of [tex]\rm CO_2[/tex] would be produced.

If [tex]\rm CaCO_3[/tex] is indeed the limiting reactant, all that approximately [tex]1.00\times 10^{-2}\; \rm mol[/tex] of [tex]\rm CaCO_3\![/tex] formula would be consumed. That would produce approximately [tex]1.00\times 10^{-2}\; \rm mol\![/tex] of [tex]\rm CO_2[/tex].

On the other hand, assume that [tex]\rm HCl[/tex] is the limiting reactant.

Convert the volume of [tex]\rm HCl[/tex] to [tex]\rm dm^{3}[/tex] (so as to match the unit of concentration.)

[tex]\begin{aligned}&V(\mathrm{HCl})\\ &= 50\; \rm cm^{3} \\ &= 50\; \rm cm^{3} \times \frac{1\; \rm dm^{3}}{10^{3}\; \rm cm^{3}} \\ &= 5.00\times 10^{-2}\; \rm dm^{3} \end{aligned}[/tex].

Calculate the number of moles of [tex]\rm HCl[/tex] molecules in that [tex]5.00\times 10^{-2}\; \rm dm^{3}[/tex] of this [tex]\rm 0.05\; \rm mol \cdot dm^{-3}[/tex]

[tex]\begin{aligned}& n(\mathrm{HCl}) \\ &= c(\mathrm{HCl}) \cdot V(\mathrm{HCl}) \\ &= 0.05\; \rm mol \cdot dm^{-3}\\ &\quad\quad \times 5.00\times 10^{-2}\;\rm dm^{3} \\ &= 2.50 \times 10^{-3}\; \rm mol\end{aligned}[/tex].

Notice that in the balanced chemical reaction, the ratio between the coefficient of [tex]\rm HCl[/tex] and that of [tex]\rm CO_2[/tex] is [tex]\displaystyle \frac{n(\mathrm{CO_2})}{n(\mathrm{HCl})} = \frac{1}{2}[/tex].

In other words, each mole of [tex]\rm HCl[/tex] molecules consumed would produce only [tex]0.5\;\rm mol[/tex] of [tex]\rm CO_2[/tex] molecules.

Therefore, if [tex]\rm HCl[/tex] is the limiting reactant, that [tex]2.50 \times 10^{-3}\; \rm mol[/tex] of [tex]\rm HCl\![/tex] molecules would produce only one-half as many (that is, [tex]1.25\times 10^{-3}\; \rm mol[/tex]) of [tex]\rm CO_2[/tex] molecules.

If [tex]\rm CaCO_3[/tex] is the limiting reactant, [tex]\rm 1.00\times 10^{-3}\; \rm mol[/tex] of [tex]\rm CO_2[/tex] molecules would be produced. However, if [tex]\rm HCl[/tex] is the limiting reactant, [tex]1.25\times 10^{-3}\; \rm mol[/tex] of [tex]\rm CO_2\![/tex] molecules would be produced.

In reality, no more than [tex]\rm 1.00\times 10^{-3}\; \rm mol[/tex] of [tex]\rm CO_2[/tex] molecules would be produced. The reason is that all [tex]\rm CaCO_3[/tex] would have been consumed before [tex]\rm HCl[/tex] was.

After finding the limiting reactant, approximate the volume of the [tex]\rm CO_2\![/tex] produced.

Assume that this reaction took place under standard temperature and pressure (STP.) Under STP, the volume of one mole of ideal gas molecules would be approximately [tex]22.4\; \rm L[/tex].

If [tex]\rm CO_2[/tex] behaves like an ideal gas, the volume of that [tex]\rm 1.00\times 10^{-3}\; \rm mol[/tex] of [tex]\rm CO_2\![/tex] molecules would be approximately [tex]\rm 1.00\times 10^{-3}\; \rm mol \times 22.4\; \rm L = 0.224\; \rm L[/tex].

What is law of conservation of mass?

According to law of conservation of mass, it is evident that mass is neither created nor destroyed rather it is restored at the end of a chemical reaction .

Law of conservation of mass and energy are related as mass and energy are directly proportional which is indicated by the equation E=mc².Concept of conservation of mass is widely used in field of chemistry, fluid dynamics.

Law needs to be modified in accordance with laws of quantum mechanics under the principle of mass and energy equivalence.This law was proposed by Antoine Lavoisier in the year 1789.

Explanation:

The ions are formed when an atom gains or lose electrons.

The ions are classified into two which are called the cations and anions. The cation is classified as the positive charge formed by the loss of electrons. Example: [tex]Na^+[/tex] is formed by the loss of one electron by [tex]Na[/tex]

The anion is classified as the negative charge ion formed by the gain of electrons. Example : [tex]F^-[/tex] is formed the gain of one electron by [tex]F[/tex]

Let's consider the unbalanced molecular equation when aluminum metal and oxygen gas combine to produce aluminum oxide. This is a combination reaction.

Al(s) + O₂(g) ⇒ Al₂O₃(s)

We can balance O  atoms by multiplying O₂ by 3 and Al₂O₃ by 2.

Al(s) + 3 O₂(g) ⇒ 2 Al₂O₃(s)

Answers

Answer:

0.00752L of 0.305M K₃PO₄

Explanation:

Based on the balanced chemical equation, 2 moles of K₃PO₄ react with 3 moles of NiCl₂.

To find the volume of K₃PO₄ we need to determine the moles of this compound required for a complete reaction finding moles of NiCl₂ and using the chemical equation:

Moles NiCl₂:

187mL = 0.187L * (0.0184mol / L) = 0.00344 moles NiCl₂

Moles K₃PO₄:

As 2 moles of K₃PO₄ react with 3 moles of NiCl₂:

0.00344 moles NiCl₂ * (2 mol K₃PO₄ / 3 moles NiCl₂) =

0.002294 moles of K₃PO₄

Volume of 0.305M K₃PO₄:

0.002294 moles of K₃PO₄ * (1L / 0.305moles K₃PO₄) =

0.00752L of 0.305M K₃PO₄
