Calculate the pressure exerted by an book of mass 20kg occupying an area of 2 m square.​

Chemistry
1 answer:
kotykmax [81]1 year ago
8 0

The answer is 100 Pa.

The formula for calculating pressure is :

<u>Pressure = Force ÷ Area</u>

<u />

We are given that :

  • mass = 20 kg
  • area = 2 m²

We also know that :

<u>Force = mass ×g</u>

<u />

So, force will be :

  • F = 20 × 10
  • F = 200 N

Now, we can finally calculate pressure :

  • P = 200 ÷ 2
  • P = 100 Pa

What are reasons standardizing conditions in which chemist describe matter?
ExtremeBDS [4]
Matter is the basic unit of every thing in the world, whether living or nonliving. So, it is logical to set definitions and postulates because these could pave way to other complexities of science. It is the foundation of science. That is why theories and laws are formulated for matter such as: Kinetic Theory of Matter, Dalton's Atomic Model, Newton's Law of Motion, Conservation Laws and many more.

sucrose is composed of carbon hydrogen and oxygen which of the following is not needed in order to determine the precent by mass
Dimas [21]

Explanation:

It is often desirable to determine the mass percent of elements in a given compound.

To determine the mass percent of elements:

  • Evaluate the formula mass of the compound. This is done by summing the atomic masses of the atoms in the compound together.
  • The mass percentage is determined by pacing the mass contribution of each element or group to the formula mass of the compound and multiply by 100.

Where might you find a temperature of 2 kelvin?
lyudmila [28]
100°C is 273 kelvins.

1°C is 2.73 kelvins.

I guess the closest would be north pole

A chemical reaction takes place in which energy is absorbed. Arrange the characteristics of the reaction in order from start to
marshall27 [118]
Endothermic reactions, on the other hand, absorb heat and/or light from their surroundings. For example, decomposition reactions are usually endothermic. In endothermic reactions, the products have more enthalpy than the reactants. Thus, an endothermic reaction is said to have a positive<span> enthalpy of reaction. This means that the energy required to break the bonds in the reactants is more than the energy released when new bonds form in the products; in other words, the reaction requires energy to proceed.</span>
