Why do a planets speed change in orbit

Chemistry
1 answer:
gayaneshka [121]3 years ago
3 0

According to Kepler's  second law of orbital motion, a plane's orbital speed changes , depending on how far it is from the sun. The closer a planet is to the sun, the stronger the sun's gravitational pull on it, and the faster the planet moves.  The farther away from the sun, the weaker the sun's gravitational pull and the slower it moves in its orbit.

The orbit of a planet around the sun is not  a perfect circle, but  an ellipse - a flattened circle.

7.66 Write balanced equations for the following reactions: (a) potassium oxide with water, (b) diphosphorus trioxide with water,
White raven [17]

Explanation:

(a) potassium oxide with water

K_2O(s)+H_2O(l)\rightarrow 2KOH(aq)

According to reaction,1 mole of potassium  oxide reacts with 1 mole of water to give 1 mole of potassium hydroxide.

(b) diphosphorus trioxide with water

P_2O_3(s)+3H_2O(l)\rightarrow 2H_3PO_3(aq)

According to reaction,1 mole of diphosphorus trioxide reacts with 2 moles of water  to give 2 moles of phosphorus acid.

(c) chromium(III) oxide with dilute hydrochloric acid,

Cr_2O_3(s)+6HCl(aq)\rightarrow 2CrCl_3(aq)+3H_2O(l)

According to reaction,1 mole of chromium(III) oxide reacts with 6 moles of hydrochloric acid to give 2 moles of chromium(III) chloride and 3 moles of water.

(d) selenium dioxide with aqueous potassium hydroxide

SeO_2 (s)+2KOH (aq)\rightarrow K_2SeO_3(aq)+H_2O(l)

According to reaction,1 mole of selenium dioxide reacts with 2 moles of potassium hydroxide to give 1 mole of potassium selenite and 1 mole of water.

Question 11 point)
MrMuchimi

Answer:

<u><em>The correct option is C) the moon takes the same time to rotate and revolve.</em></u>

Explanation:

Scientific experiments have concluded that it takes approximately 23 days for the moon to rotate and also it takes the same duration for the moon to revolve around the Earth. Due to this consistency, the moon appears to be still.

<em>Such synchronization results in the same face of the moon to be directed towards the Earth. Hence, the same craters of the moon will be observed by the scientist every day.</em>

<em></em>

Other options, like option D, is not correct because there will be craters on the other side of the moon too. But as we see the same side of the moon, hence we cannot see the craters present on the other side of the moon.

Given the value of the equilibrium constant (Kc) for the equation (a), calculate the equilibrium constant for equation (b)
matrenka [14]

Answer: The value of equilibrium constant for new reaction is 1.92\times 10^{-25}

Explanation:

The given chemical equation follows:

O_2(g)\rightarrow \frac{2}{3}O_3(g)+\frac{1}{2}O_2(g)  

The equilibrium constant for the above equation is 5.77\times 10^{-9}

We need to calculate the equilibrium constant for the equation of 3 times of the above chemical equation, which is:

3O_2(g)\rightarrow 2O_3(g)

The equilibrium constant for this reaction will be the cube of the initial reaction.

If the equation is multiplied by a factor of '3', the equilibrium constant of the new reaction will be the cube of the equilibrium constant of initial reaction.

The value of equilibrium constant for reverse reaction is:

K_{eq}'=(5.77\times 10^{-9})^3=1.92\times 10^{-25}

Hence, the value of equilibrium constant for new reaction is 1.92\times 10^{-25}
