Many of the atomic masses listed on the periodic table are decimal values because it's the weighted average mass of all of the isotopes of that element.

A. Energy is transferred to different forms
Luden [163]

Answer:

A. Energy is transferred to different forms .

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, we need to consider the law of conservation of mass and energy which states that mass and energy cannot be neither created nor destroyed, just modified; it means we can rule out B. and C. so far.

Moreover, since D. is actually true for combustion reactions because they are used to provide energy in industrial operations, this is not the concern here because a combustion reaction is not considered.

Therefore the correct option is A. Energy is transferred to different forms as the energy provided by Rose is transferred to the pendulum system .

Best regards!

What does the law of conservation of energy impy
Rasek [7]
The law of conservation of energy is that energy cannot be created or destroyed, but it can be transferred or transformed from one form to another (including transformation into or from mass, as matter). The total amount of energy in a closed system never changes. energy in a system may be transformed so that it resides in a different state.

H-1
bonufazy [111]
Answer = B = Neutrons and Mass Number

Isotopes 
are defined as those atoms which have same atomic number but different atomic masses.

Atomic mass is basically the number of protons and neutrons present in an atom.

Atomic number is the number of protons present in an atom.

So, in isotopes the number of protons are same but the number of neutrons vary due to which atomic masses also vary.
In given three isotopes, all have same number of protons but different number of neutrons.
i.e.
H-1 = 1 P + 0 N = 1 u (Proton)
H-2 = 1 P + 1 N = 2 u (Deuterium)
H-3 = 1 P + 2 N = 3 u (Tritium)

Hence, it is clear that the number after H shows a change in number of neutrons and mass number.

How many milliliters of a 17% benzalkonium chloride stock solution would be needed to prepare a liter of a 1:200 solution of ben
Nuetrik [128]

Here is the complete question.

Benzalkonium Chloride Solution ------------> 250ml

Make solution such that when 10ml is diluted to a total volume of 1 liter a 1:200 is produced.

Sig: Dilute 10ml to a liter and apply to affected area twice daily

How many milliliters of a 17% benzalkonium chloride stock solution would be needed to prepare a liter of a 1:200 solution of benzalkonium chloride?

(A) 1700 mL

(B) 29.4 mL

(C) 17 mL

(D) 294 mL

Answer:

(B) 29.4 mL

Explanation:

1 L  =   1000 mL

1:200 solution implies the \frac{weight}{volume} in 200 mL solution.

200 mL of solution = 1g of Benzalkonium chloride

1000 mL will be \frac{1000mL}{200mL}=\frac{1g}{xg}

200mL × 1g = 1000 mL × x(g)

x(g) = \frac{200mL*1g}{1000mL}

x(g) = 0.2 g

That is to say, 0.2 g of benzalkonium chloride in 1000mL of diluted solution of 1;200 is also the amount in 10mL of the stock solution to be prepared.

∴ \frac{10mL}{250mL}=\frac{0.2g}{y(g)}

y(g) = \frac{250mL*0.2g}{10mL}

y(g) = 5g of benzalkonium chloride.

Now, at 17% \frac{weight}{volume} concentrate contains 17g/100ml:

∴  the number of milliliters of a 17% benzalkonium chloride stock solution that is needed to prepare a liter of a 1:200 solution of benzalkonium chloride will be;

= \frac{17g}{5g} = \frac{100mL}{z(mL)}

z(mL) = \frac{100mL*5g}{17g}

z(mL) = 29.41176 mL

≅ 29.4 mL

Therefore, there are 29.4 mL of a 17% benzalkonium chloride stock solution that is required to prepare a liter of a 1:200 solution of benzalkonium chloride

If the distance between a point charge and a neutral atom and is multiplied by a factor of 5, by what factor does the force on t
dexar [7]

Given :

The distance between a point charge and a neutral atom and is multiplied by a factor of 5.

To Find :

By what factor does the force on the neutral atom by the point charge change.

Solution :

We know, electrostatic force between two object is directly proportional to product of charge and inversely proportional to distance between them.

Now, charge in neutral atom is 0 C.

So, the electrostatic force between two of them is also 0 N.

Therefore, by changing distance between the charge the forces did no change ( it remains zero).
