It is an approximation of its mass number. Each isotope of an element has a different mass number.

<span>The number next to the isotope is the mass number- They all have different masses because they have different numbers of neutrons, but the same amount of protons (Remember protons + neutrons = mass)</span>

What force opposes gravity and keeps objects from falling to the center of<br> the earth?
stiv31 [10]

La fuerza de la gravedad depende de la masa (el peso) de cada objeto. La fuerza con que se atraen dos objetos es proporcional a su masa y disminuye rápidamente en el momento en que los separamos. De hecho, nosotros también atraemos objetos con ‘nuestra’ fuerza gravitatoria, pero pesamos tan poco que no podemos percibirlo. En cambio, el Sol es tan grande que es capaz de mantenernos girando a su alrededor a pesar de estar muy lejos. La Luna también ejerce su propia fuerza gravitatoria, pero, como es más pequeña y ligera que la Tierra, si nos pesásemos sobre su superficie veríamos que pesamos unas seis veces menos que en la Tierra.

Podríamos preguntarnos por qué la Luna no cae sobre la Tierra al igual que una manzana cae del árbol. La razón es que nuestro satélite nunca está quieto. Se mueve constantemente a nuestro alrededor. Sin la fuerza de atracción terrestre, se alejaría flotando en el espacio. Gracias a esta combinación de velocidad y distancia de nuestro planeta, la Luna siempre está en equilibrio, ni cae ni se aleja. Si se moviera más rápido, se alejaría, si se moviera con más lentitud, ¡caería!

Hemos dicho que la fuerza de la gravedad también depende de la distancia. Si nos alejásemos lo suficiente de la Tierra, escaparíamos a su fuerza de atracción. Y eso es lo que tratamos de hacer con las naves espaciales. Necesitamos superar la llamada ‘velocidad de escape’, que es aproximadamente 11,2 km/s (a esa velocidad, podríamos viajar de Londres a Nueva York ¡en tan solo 10 minutos!). Cuando un cohete alcanza esa velocidad, ya es libre para viajar por el sistema solar.

Dentro de una nave en órbita, no sentimos la fuerza de la gravedad terrestre. Los objetos no caen, sino que flotan, así que si saltas, no regresas al suelo. Es lo que les ocurre a los astronautas cuando están a bordo de una estación espacial que orbita alrededor de la Tierra.

Determine the limiting reactant (lr) and the mass (in g) of nitrogen that can be formed from 50.0 g n2o4 and 45.0 g n2h4. some p
Licemer1 [7]
                                                   N2O4(l) + 2 N2H4(l) → 3 N2(g) + 4 H2O(g)
1) to calculate the limiting reactant you need to pass grams to moles.
<span> moles is calculated by dividing mass by molar mass
</span>
mass of N2O4: 50.0 g 
molar mass of <span>N2O4 = 92.02 g/mol
</span><span>molar mass of N2H4 = 32.05 g/mol.
</span>mass of N2H4:45.0 g

moles N2O4=50.0/92.02 g/mol= 0,54 mol of N2O4
moles N2H4= 45/32.05 g/mol= 1,40 mol of <span><span>N2H4

</span> 2)</span>
By looking at the balanced equation, you can see that 1 mol of N2O4 needs 2 moles of N2H4 to fully react . So to react  0,54 moles of N2O4, you need 2x0,54 moles of <span>N2H4 moles
</span><span>N2H4 needed = 1,08 moles.
You have more that 1,08 moles </span><span>N2H4, so this means the limiting reagent is not N2H4, it's </span>N2O4. The molecule that has molecules that are left is never the limiting reactant.

3) 1 mol of N2O4 reacting, will produce 3 mol of N2 (look at the equation)
There are 0,54 mol of N2O4 available to react, so how many moles will produce of N2?
1 mol N2O4------------3 mol of N2
0,54 mol N2O4--------x
x=1,62 mol of N2

4) the only thing left to do is convert the moles obtained, to grams.
We use the same formula as before, moles equal to mass divided by molar mass.
moles= \frac{grams}{molar mass}             (molar mass of N2= 28)
1,62 mol of N2= mass/ 28
mass of N2= 45,36 grams
