What is the force that opposes the sliding motion of two touching surfaces?

1 answer:

3 0

Answer: The force that acts against your pushing force is called friction. is a force that resists the motion between two surfaces in contact. When you try to slide two surfaces across each other, the force of friction resists the sliding motion.

The claim: "If the nucleus were the size of a grape, the electrons would be one mile away on average" is reasonably accurate because the ratios between the nucleus's sizes and the distances (between electrons and nucleus) for the two given examples are in the same order of magnitude.

To know if the claim is accurate we need to calculate the ratio of the size of the nucleus (the same as a grape) and the distance between the electrons and the nucleus for example 1 (r₁):

$r_{1} = \frac{s_{1}}{d_{1}}$ (1)

and to compare it with the ratio of the size and the distance given in example 2 (r₂):

$r_{2} = \frac{s_{2}}{d_{2}}$ (2)

Where:

s₁: is the size of the nucleus (like the size of a grape)

d₁: is the distance between electrons and nucleus of example 1 = 1 mile

s₂: is the average diameter of the nucleus = 10⁻¹³ cm

d₂: is the average distance between electrons and nucleus of example 2 = 10⁻⁸ cm

Assuming that the diameter of a grape is 3 cm (in a spherical way), the ratio of the first example is (eq 1):

$r_{1} = \frac{3 cm}{1 mi*\frac{160934 cm}{1 mi}} = 1.86 \cdot 10^{-5}$

Now, the ratio of the second example is (eq 2):

$r_{2} = \frac{10^{-13} cm}{10^{-8} cm} = 1.00 \cdot 10^{-5}$

Since r₁ and r₂ are in the same order of magnitude (10⁻⁵), we can conclude that the given claim is reasonably accurate.

If 14 moles of Oxygen burn how many moles of water are created? *

andrey2020 [161]

Answer:

A) 12 mol H2O.

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, for the given reaction:

$2C_2H_6+7O_2\rightarrow 4CO_2 + 6 H_2O$

We notice that oxygen is in a 7:6 molar relationship with water, for that reason, the resulting moles of water turn out:

$n_{H_2O}=14molO_2*\frac{6molH_2O}{7molO_2} \\\\n_{H_2O}=12molH_2O$

Thus, the answer is A) 12 mol H2O.

Best regards.

2 of 20 Which intermolecular force or bond is primarily responsible for the solubility of CH3OH in water? lonic bonding Hydrogen

Vlad [161]

Answer:

Hydrogen bonding

Explanation:

As a rule of thumb, "likes dissolve like", meaning polar solutes dissolve in polar solvents and nonpolar solutes in nonpolar solvents. In this case, water is polar (dipolar moment = 1.85 Debye) dissolves methanol which is also polar (dipolar moment = 1.69 Debye). Besides being dipoles, both molecules have atoms of Hydrogen with a covalent bond to more electronegative atoms of Oxygen. When this happens, stronger dipole-dipole interactions appear known as Hydrogen bonding. There is an electrostatic attraction between H (positive charge density) and O (negative charge density).
