Why don't satellites in orbit fly into space?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Alex787 [66]3 years ago
7 0
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.

2.56 g of hydrogen reacts completely with 20.32 g of oxygen<br> to form X g of water. X = g
Brilliant_brown [7]

Answer:

Mass of water produced is 22.86 g.

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of hydrogen = 2.56 g

Mass of oxygen = 20.32 g

Mass of water = ?

Solution:

Chemical equation:

2H₂ + O₂   →  2H₂O

Number of moles of oxygen:

Number of moles = mass/ molar mass

Number of moles = 20.32 g/ 32 g/mol

Number of moles = 0.635 mol

Number of moles of hydrogen:

Number of moles = mass/ molar mass

Number of moles = 2.56 g/ 2 g/mol

Number of moles = 1.28 mol

Now we will compare the moles of water with oxygen and hydrogen.

                    O₂            :            H₂O

                     1              :             2

                  0.635        ;            2×0.635 =  1.27

                   H₂             :              H₂O

                    2              :              2

                 1.28            :           1.28

The number of  moles of water produced by oxygen are less thus it will be limiting reactant.

Mass of water produced:

Mass = number of moles × molar mass

Mass = 1.27 × 18 g/mol

Mass = 22.86 g

Why would defective collagen proteins affect an individuals joints?
umka21 [38]

Answer:

Defective collagen proteins affect an individuals joints, as <u>collagen is an important component protein in body</u><u> connective tissues</u>

Explanation:

Collagen is a crucial protein in the extracellular matrix of various connective tissues in body (tendons, ligaments, muscles). It constitutes major protein component in mammals body.

Collagen Vascular disease is a group of diseases affecting 'collagen' connecting tissue. Apart from inheritance, they can con occur due to autoimmune disease. This implies that body's immune system fights against itself & mistakenly damages its own tissues. So, these diseases have a huge bearing on body joints components. Eg : Lupus , Arthritis are common collagen vascular diseases. Arthritis mostly affects adults above 30 years of age, lupus can be diagnosed in younger people above 15 years of age also.

The bonds in the reactants of Figure 7-3 contained 372 kJ of chemical energy and the bonds in the products contained 350 kJ of c
satela [25.4K]

Answer: 22 kJ amount of energy is released in the following reaction.

Explanation: There are two types of reaction on the basis of amount of heat absorbed or released.

1. Endothermic reactions: These are the type of reactions in which reactants absorb heat to form the products. The energy of the reactants is less than the energy of the products.

2. Exothermic reactions: These are the type of reactions in which heat is released from the chemical reactions. The energy of the products is less than the reactants.

Sign convention for \Delta H: This value is negative for exothermic reactions and positive for endothermic reactions.

For the given chemical reaction,

Energy of the products is less than the energy of the reactants, Hence, this reaction will be a type of exothermic reaction and energy will be released during this chemical change.

Amount of energy released = (350 - 372) kJ = -22kJ

Negative sign symbolizes the energy is being released. So, 22 kJ amount of energy is released in the following reaction.

15. The mass of a sample of iron is 114 g, and the density of iron is 7.86 g/cm3. What is the volume of this iron sample?
anyanavicka [17]

Answer:

The answer is

<h2>14.50 cm³</h2>

Explanation:

The volume of a substance when given the density and mass can be found by using the formula

volume =  \frac{mass}{density}

From the question

mass of iron = 114 g

density = 7.86 g/cm³

The volume is

volume =  \frac{114}{7.86}  \\  = 14.50381679

We have the final answer as

<h3>14.50 cm³</h3>

Hope this helps you
