Answer:

A device that does work with only one movement and changes the size or direction of a force is a simple machine.

Explanation:

  • For applying force, any used basic mechanical devices are simple machines.
  • Simple machine changes the direction as well as the amplitude of the applied force i.e. we can increase or decrease the magnitude of the force.
  • A simple machine is the most basic mechanism to use the force as we need in big mechanical machines.
  • Some of the examples of simple machines are inclined plane, lever, wedge, wheel and axle, pulley, and screw.

7.Calculate the volume of nitrogen that reacts with 12dm3 of hydrogen with the volume of both gases measured at rtp:
marta [7]

Answer:

4.03dm³

Explanation:

The reaction expression is given as:

       3H₂   +   N₂   →    2NH₃  

  Volume of hydrogen  = 12dm³  

AT rtp:

             1 mole of gas occupies volume of 22.4dm³  

             x mole of hydrogen will occupy a volume of 12dm³

     Number of moles of hydrogen  = \frac{12}{22.4}   = 0.54mole

From the balanced reaction equation:

            3 mole of hydrogen gas combines with 1 mole of Nitrogen gas

         0.54 mole of hydrogen as will therefore combine with \frac{0.54}{3}   = 0.18moles of nitrogen gas

Since ;

                     1 mole of gas occupies a volume of 22.4dm³

               0.18moles of Nitrogen gas will occupy 0.18 x 22.4  = 4.03dm³

The combustion of gasoline produces carbon dioxide and water. Assume gasoline to be pure octane (C8H18) and calculate the mass (
Mnenie [13.5K]

Answer:

3.1 kg

Explanation:

Step 1: Write the balanced combustion equation

C₈H₁₈ + 12.5 O₂ ⇒ 8 CO₂ + 9 H₂O

Step 2: Calculate the moles corresponding to 1.0 kg of C₈H₁₈.

The molar mass of C₈H₁₈ is 114.23 g/mol.

1.0 × 10³ g × 1 mol/114.23 g = 8.8 mol

Step 3: Calculate the moles of CO₂ produced from 8.8 moles of C₈H₁₈

The molar ratio of C₈H₁₈ to CO₂ is 1:8. The moles of CO₂ produced are 8/1 × 8.8 mol = 70 mol.

Step 4: Calculate the mass corresponding to 70 moles of CO₂

The molar mass of CO₂ is 44.01 g/mol.

70 mol × 44.01 g/mol = 3.1 × 10³ g = 3.1 kg

Identify the catalyst in this reaction, explain how
telo118 [61]

Question:

Sulfuric acid was once produced through the reaction of sulfur trioxide with water. Sulfur trioxide can form through the reaction of sulfur dioxide and oxygen gas. When nitrogen monoxide gas is added to the system, the reaction speeds up significantly because it proceeds through the following steps:

equations

Identify the catalyst in this reaction, explain how you know it is the catalyst, and describe how it increases the rate of the reaction.

Answer:

NO

It is present but not consumed

NO Lowers the activation energy of the reaction

Explanation:

A catalyst is a substance that is present in a chemical reaction and enables the reaction to occur at a faster rte but does not take part n the reaction

Therefore, whereby NO is not consumed, it is the catalyst

It functions by lowering the activation energy

From a scientific viewpoint, why do many desert dwellers elect to wear white or light-colored garments
alexandr1967 [171]
Darker colors absorb sunlight more, so it will become hotter. Lighter colored clothes will better reflect sun so they will be less hot.
