Which of the following describes a difference between galaxies and solar systems? A. Galaxies contain only moons, while solar sy

stems contain planets.
B. Gravity holds solar systems in orbits but does not exist between stars in galaxies. C. A galaxy is a collection of millions of stars, while a solar system is a star and the planets around it.
D. It's easier to use astronomical units to measure distances in the galaxy but use light years for measurements in a solar system.

The correct answers should be C
Tomtit [17]3 years ago
8 0

<u>Answer: </u>The correct answer is Option C.

<u>Explanation:</u>

A galaxy is defined as the huge collection of gas, dust and billions of stars along with their solar system. All these systems are held together by the gravitational attraction. For Example: Milky Way.

A solar system is defined as the collection of a star, planets along with their moons, satellites of the planets, asteroids, meteoroids and comets. In the solar system planets revolve around the Star. For Example: Our Solar System has a star named Sun and eight planets revolve around it.

Hence, the correct answer is Option C.

How do you calculate net force?
bogdanovich [222]
How to find net force

The net force is the vector sum of all forces act upon an object.

The formula to calculate net force is Fnet = ma
where the net force is equal to the mass of an object (in Kg) multiplied by the acceleration of the object (in meters per second squared)

You may also calculate the net force acting upon an object with Fnet = Fa + Ff
where the net force is equal to the sum of the applied force and the force of friction.

Which statement is true in comparison to a weak acid, a strong acid
Allushta [10]

Answer: Strong acid vs weak acid

Strong acids and strong bases refer to species that completely dissociate to form ions in solution.

Explanation: By contrast, weak acids and bases ionize only partially, and the ionization reaction is reversible. Thus, weak acid and base solutions contain multiple charged and uncharged species in dynamic equilibrium.

The dissociation of sulfurous acid (H2SO3) in aqueous solution occurs as follows:
aksik [14]

Answer:

The [SO₃²⁻]

Explanation:

From the first dissociation of sulfurous acid we have:

                         H₂SO₃(aq) ⇄ H⁺(aq) + HSO₃⁻(aq)

At equilibrium:  0.50M - x          x            x

The equilibrium constant (Ka₁) is:

K_{a1} = \frac{[H^{+}] [HSO_{3}^{-}]}{[H_{2}SO_{3}]} = \frac{x\cdot x}{0.5 - x} = \frac {x^{2}}{0.5 -x}

With Ka₁= 1.5x10⁻² and solving the quadratic equation, we get the following HSO₃⁻ and H⁺ concentrations:

[HSO_{3}^{-}] = [H^{+}] = 7.94 \cdot 10^{-2}M

Similarly, from the second dissociation of sulfurous acid we have:

                              HSO₃⁻(aq) ⇄ H⁺(aq) + SO₃²⁻(aq)

At equilibrium:  7.94x10⁻²M - x          x            x

The equilibrium constant (Ka₂) is:  

K_{a2} = \frac{[H^{+}] [SO_{3}^{2-}]}{[HSO_{3}^{-}]} = \frac{x^{2}}{7.94 \cdot 10^{-2} - x}  

Using Ka₂= 6.3x10⁻⁸ and solving the quadratic equation, we get the following SO₃⁻ and H⁺ concentrations:

[SO_{3}^{2-}] = [H^{+}] = 7.07 \cdot 10^{-5}M

Therefore, the final concentrations are:

[H₂SO₃] = 0.5M - 7.94x10⁻²M = 0.42M

[HSO₃⁻] = 7.94x10⁻²M - 7.07x10⁻⁵M = 7.93x10⁻²M

[SO₃²⁻] = 7.07x10⁻⁵M

[H⁺] = 7.94x10⁻²M + 7.07x10⁻⁵M = 7.95x10⁻²M

So, the lowest concentration at equilibrium is [SO₃²⁻] = 7.07x10⁻⁵M.

I hope it helps you!
