A meteor falls toward Earth's surface. Given that the acceleration due to
gravity is 9.8 m/s2, what is the meteor's potential energy if it has a mass of 50
kg at an altitude of 300 m²
A. 147,000 u
B. 16 J
C. 22,050,000 J
D. 1,531 J

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

E = 147000  J

Explanation:

Given that,

The mass of meteor, m = 50 kg

The altitude of the meteor, h = 300 m

We need to find the potential energy of the meteor. The formula for the potential energy is given by :

[tex]E=mgh[/tex]

Put all the values,

[tex]E=50\times 9.8\times 300\\\\E=147000\ J[/tex]

So, the required potential energy is equal to 147000  J.

You react 20.00 grams of aluminum with iron(III) oxide. How many grams of iron should you produce?
What is the percent yield if the experimental yield is 32.67 grams of iron?

Answers

Answer:

78.8%

Explanation:

The equation of the reaction is;

2 Al(s) + Fe2O3(aq) ------> Al2O3(aq) + 2Fe(s)

Number of moles in 20g of Al= 20g/27 g/mol = 0.74 moles

From the reaction equation;

2 moles of Al yields 2 moles of Fe

0.74 moles of Al yields 0.74 moles of Fe

Hence;

Mass of Fe produced = 0.74 moles of Fe * 56 g/mol

Mass of Fe produced = 41.44 g of Fe (This is the theoretical yield of Fe)

percent yield = actual yield/ theoretical yield  * 100

actual yield = 32.67 grams of iron

percent yield = 32.67 g/41.44 g * 100

percent yield = 78.8%

For the decomposition of dinitrogen pentoxide in carbon tetrachloride solution at 30 °C , the average rate of disappearance of N2O5 over the time period from t = 0 min to t = 112 min is found to be 5.80×10^-4 M min^-1. The average rate of formation of O2 over the same time period is:__________ M min-1

Answers

Answer:

1.45 × 10⁻³ M min⁻¹

Explanation:

Step 1: Write the balanced reaction for the decomposition of dinitrogen pentoxide

2 N₂O₅(g) ⇒ 2 N₂(g) + 5 O₂(g)

Step 2: Calculate the average rate of formation of oxygen

The average rate of disappearance of N₂O₅ over the time period from t = 0 min to t = 112 min is found to be 5.80 × 10⁻⁴ M min⁻¹ (5.80 × 10⁻⁴ molN₂O₅ L⁻¹  min⁻¹). Given that the molar ratio of N₂O₅ to O₂ is 2:5, the average rate of formation of O₂ is:

5.80 × 10⁻⁴ molN₂O₅ L⁻¹  min⁻¹ × 5 molO₂/ 2 molN₂O₅ = 1.45 × 10⁻³ molO₂ L⁻¹  min⁻¹ = 1.45 × 10⁻³ M min⁻¹

What is the balanced chemical equation for the reaction between aluminum and copper nitrate? Use this resource on polyatomic ions and the periodic table to help you.

Answers

To find the balanced reaction, you have to predict the products and write the equation first.
This will be a single replacement reaction because aluminum is an element and copper nitrate is a compound.
The reaction will be:
Al + Cu(NO3)2 -> Cu + Al(NO3)3
Now, we can balance it:
2 Al + 3 Cu(NO3)2 -> 3 Cu + 2 Al(NO3)3

Apply your knowledge and understanding of equilibrium constant in solving the following problems:

The equilibrium constant Kc for the reaction below is 170 at 500 K.

Determine whether the reaction mixture is at equilibrium when the concentrations of the components at this temperature are as follows:
[N2]=1.50
[H2]=1.00
[NH3]=8.00

If it is not at equilibrium, state and explain in which direction the reaction will proceed.Multi Line Text.
2()+32() ⇄ 23()

Answers

Answer:

The reaction will proceed to the right to attain the equilibrium.

Explanation:

Step 1: Write the balanced equation

2 N₂(g) + 3 H₂(g) = 2 NH₃(g)

Step 2: Calculate the reaction quotient

The reaction quotient (Qc) is calculated in the same way as the equilibrium constant (Kc) but it uses the concentrations at any time.

Qc = [NH₃]² / [N₂]² × [H₂]³

Qc = 8.00² / 1.50² × 1.00³ = 28.4

Since Qc ≠ Kc, the reaction is not at equilibrium.

Since Qc < Kc, the reaction will proceed to the right to attain the equilibrium.

How Do i get this answer with steps ?

Answers

Answer:

1.765x10²⁵ molecules

Explanation:

C₃H₈ + 5 O₂ → 3 CO₂ + 4H₂O

First we convert 7.328 moles of propane (C₃H₈) into moles of H₂O, using the stoichiometric coefficients of the balanced reaction:

7.328 mol C₃H₈ * [tex]\frac{4molH_2O}{1molC_3H_8}[/tex] = 29.312 mol H₂O

Then we convert 29.312 moles of H₂O into molecules, using Avogadro's number:

29.312 mol * 6.023x10²³ molecules/mol = 1.765x10²⁵ molecules

8.5 g of rubidium are reacted completely with water.

The volume of this solution is 2.5 dm'.
Calculate the concentration of the rubidium hydroxide solution in g dm
(relative atomic mass: Rb = 85; relative formula mass: RbOH = 102)​

Answers

Answer:

0.040M RbOH

Explanation:

The reaction of Rb with water is:

2Rb + 2H₂O → 2RbOH + H₂

As 2 moles of rubidium produce 2 moles of rubidium hydroxide, we need to find the moles of rubidium added. With these moles and the volume we can find molar concentration of RbOH as follows:

Moles Rb = Moles RbOH -Molar mass Rb = 85.4678g)

8.5g * (1mol / 85.4678g) = 0.099 moles RbOH

As 1dm³ = 1L, the volume in liters is 2.5L

That means molarity is:

0.099 moles RbOH / 2.5L =

0.040M RbOH

b. Zn(NO3)2
c. [Cu(NH3)4]Cl2
d. CdSO4
e. AgClO3
f. Cr(NO3)2

Answers

Answer:

See Explanation

Explanation:

The colour of many transition metal complexes stem from transitions of electrons between energy levels. These transitions are governed by the spin selection rules and the colour is determined by the magnitude of crystal field splitting.

According to the spin selection rules, transitions in which ΔS = 0 are forbidden. Hence, a Mn^2+high spin compound is expected to be colourless. However, contrary to the spin selection rules Mn^2+high spin compounds do exhibit transitions in which the intensity is only about one-hundredth of the intensity of the spin allowed transitions. Thus many Mn^2+  high spin compounds such as Mn(NO3)2 are very pale pink or off white.

Note also that the crystal field stabilization energy of Mn^2+ which is a d^5 low spin ion is zero hence the very pale colour observed.

K4[Mn(CN)6] is deep blue as a result of charge transfer. Also, the compound exhibits an observed crystal field stabilization energy because it is a d^5 low spin compound hence the observed colour. Its low spin nature is because the cyanide ion is a strong field ligand hence it causes a greater magnitude of crystal filed splitting.

The following compounds are colourless;

Zn(NO3)2

CdSO4

AgClO3

One thing that is common to all the compounds listed above is that they are all d^10 compounds. This means that they all possess completely filled d-orbitals hence they are colourless.

The pOH of a solution of KOH is 11.30. What is the [H*] for this solution?​

Answers

Answer: The concentration of hydrogen ions for this solution is [tex]1.99 \times 10^{-3}[/tex].

Explanation:

Given: pOH = 11.30

The relation between pH and pOH is as follows.

pH + pOH = 14

pH + 11.30 = 14

pH = 14 - 11.30

= 2.7

Also, pH is the negative logarithm of concentration of hydrogen ions.

[tex]pH = - log [H^{+}][/tex]

Substitute the values into above formula as follows.

[tex]pH = -log [H^{+}]\\2.7 = -log [H^{+}]\\conc. of H^{+} = 1.99 \times 10^{-3}[/tex]

Thus, we can conclude that the concentration of hydrogen ions for this solution is [tex]1.99 \times 10^{-3}[/tex].
