1. why is<br> experimentation so important to science
Alekssandra [29.7K]

Answer: to provide evidence to a theory

Explanation: Experimentation allows for multiple trials to provide evidence to a scientific theory. Without experimentation there would be no data to back up your hypothesis.

Write a balanced equation for the decomposition of ammonium nitrate to form molecular nitrogen, molecular oxygen, and water. Exp
VARVARA [1.3K]

The unbalanced reaction is

<em>a</em> NH₄NO₃   ⇒   <em>b</em> N₂ + <em>c</em> O₂ + <em>d</em> H₂O

where <em>a</em>, <em>b</em>, <em>c</em>, and <em>d</em> are unknown constants.

Count how many times each element appears on either side of the reaction.

• reactants:

N = 2<em>a</em>, H = 4<em>a</em>, O = 3<em>a</em>

• products

N = 2<em>b</em>, O = 2<em>c</em> + <em>d</em>, H = 2<em>d</em>

<em />

Now we solve the system of equations,

2<em>a</em> = 2<em>b</em> … … … [1]

4<em>a</em> = 2<em>d</em> … … … [2]

3<em>a</em> = 2<em>c</em> + <em>d</em> … … … [3]

<em />

From [1] we immediately have

<em>a</em> = <em>b</em>

In [2], we get

2<em>a</em> = <em>d</em>

and substituting for <em>d</em> in [3] gives

3<em>a</em> = 2<em>c</em> + 2<em>a</em>

<em>a</em> = 2<em>c</em>

<em />

Let <em>c</em> = 1; then

• <em>a</em> = 2×1 = 2

• <em>b</em> = 2

• <em>d</em> = 2×2 = 4

So, the balanced reaction is

2 NH₄NO₃   ⇒   2 N₂ + O₂ + 4 H₂O

A water tower is a familiar sight in many towns. The purpose of such a tower is to provide storage capacity and to provide suffi
Mademuasel [1]

The image of the water tower and the houses is in the attachment.

Answer: (a) P = 245kPa;

(b) P = 173.5 kPa

Explanation: <u>Gauge</u> <u>pressure</u> is the pressure relative to the atmospheric pressure and it is only dependent of the height of the liquid in the container.

The pressure is calculated as: P = hρg

where

ρ is the density of the liquid, in this case, water, which is ρ = 1000kg/m³;

When it is full the reservoir contains 5.25×10⁵ kg. So, knowing the density, you know the volume:

ρ = \frac{m}{V}

V = ρ/m

V = \frac{5.25.10^{5}}{10^{3}}

V = 525 m³

To know the height of the spherical reservoir, its diameter is needed and to determine it, find the radius:

V = \frac{4}{3}.\pi.r^{3}

r = \sqrt[3]{ \frac{3}{4\pi } .V}

r = \sqrt[3]{\frac{525.3}{4\pi } }

r = 5.005 m

diameter = 2*r = 10.01m

(a) Height for House A:

h = 15 + 10.01

h = 25.01

P = hρg

P = 25.01.10³.9.8

P = 245.10³ Pa or 245kPa

(b) h = 25 - 7.3

h = 17.71

P = hρg

P = 17.71.1000.9.8

P = 173.5.10³ Pa or 173.5 kPa
