Why don't satellites in orbit fly into space?

Chemistry

Alex787 [66]4 years ago

This is a question similar to one wrestled with by Newton himself, who didn't understand why the planets didn't fall into each other. The reason satellites don't fly into space is because they are being pulled towards the planet by the planet's gravity.

How many grams of O2 are required to burn 18 grams of C5H12?<br><br> C5H12 + 8O2  5CO2 + 6H2O
DIA [1.3K]
Molar mass :

O2 = 31.99 g/mol

C5H12 = 72.14 g/mol

<span>C5H12 + 8 O2 = 5 CO2 + 6 H2O
</span>
74.14 g ----------------- 8 x 31.99 g
18 g -------------------- ? ( mass of O2)

18 x 8 x 31.99 / 74.14 =

4606.56 / 74.14 => 62.133 g of O2

hope this helps!

Which statement is true about ionic compounds? They are made up of many large molecules that are bonded together. They are made
lianna [129]

Answer: Option (c) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Ionic compounds are the compounds formed by transfer of electrons. An ionic compound contains ions which are arranged in an ordered lattice.

This lattice is repeating in nature and thus results in the formation of a compound.

For example, NaCl is an ionic compound that has an ordered crystal lattice.

Thus, we can conclude that the statement they are made up of particles that are arranged in a repeating pattern, is true.
