Example: 
<span>CH4 + 2 O2 → CO2 + 2 H2O </span>

<span>In the balanced equation above, 1 mole of CH4 will react with 2 moles of O2 to produce 1 mole of CO2 and 1 mole of H2O. </span>
<span>The mass of 1 mole of CH4 = 12 + (4 * 1) = 16 grams </span>
<span>The mass of 2 moles of O2 = 2 * 32 = 64 grams </span>
<span>Total mass of reactants = 16 + 64 = 80 grams </span>

<span>The mass of 1 mole of CO2 = 12 + (2 * 16) = 44 grams </span>
<span>The mass of 2 moles of H2O = 2 * 18 = 36 grams </span>
<span>Total mass of products = 44 + 36 = 80 grams </span>

<span>Before the reaction, there was 80 grams of matter, and after the reaction there is 80 grams of matter! </span>
<span>Matter is conserved!

</span>

shepuryov [24]

Answer:

All fraction of kinectic energy is lost to barrel of a spring gun of mass 1.8 kg

Explanation:

A ball of mass 0.50 kg is fired with velocity 160 m/s ...

The kinetic energy is given by 1/2mv²

Kinectic energy of the ball = 1/2 *0.5*160²

Kinectic energy = 1/4 *25600

Kinectic energy = 6400 joules.

If no energy is lost to fiction, and the ball sticks to a barrel of a spring gun of mass 1.8 kg with initial velocity zero, all kinetic energy is lost to the barrel of a spring gun of mass 1.8 kg.

Describe how ultrasound and infrasound are used in specific industrial applications and provide detailed examples.
Angelina_Jolie [31]
In scientific terms, ultrasound is a sound pressure, cyclic in nature, that has a greater frequency than the limit at the top of human hearing capabilities. What this means is that an ultrasonic sound can’t be heard by the human ear because their frequency is too high for our ears to pick up. In healthy young adults, this upper hearing capability is an average of 20 kilohertz. Ultrasound has many applications in several fields. Perhaps the best known application for ultrasound is sonography. This is where medical staff use the high pitched noise to produce a picture of a fetus while in the mother’s womb. Another use however, doesn’t directly concern humans at all. Bats use the high pitched noises to see in the dark and get an accurate reading on their preys internal structure. A popular belief is that an ultrasonic sound has the ability to turn the locking mechanism in a door lock, as demonstrated on some spy movies. On the opposite side of this are infrasonic sounds. These are noises with a frequency less than the lowest level of human hearing capabilities is 20 hertz. It is possible for humans to perceive infrasonic sounds, but only if the air pressure is sufficient. Although the war is the main tool for hearing these low sounds, it is possible for other parts of the body to “feel them”. Infrasound can be used to send signals in the army to special machines that can pick them up. These can be used to transmit vital data. Animals are able to pick up some low infrasonic noises which warn them of natural disasters before they happen, generally earthquakes and tsunamis.

Why do some devices use batteries and other devices use a wall outlet for power?
Alina [70]

Some devices are used while moving around from place to place ... like in the car, on a bicycle, running, or walking the dog. If not for batteries, those devices would need very long extension cords.
