Develop a demonstration to show how mass is not the same thing as weight

Chemistry

pychu [463]3 years ago

This is more of a physics explanation, but here we go.

Mass is a measure of how much "matter" is in an object. Weight is the force applied onto an object by gravity. Weight itself can be related to mass like this:

f_g = mg

where g is a gravitational constant. For our purposes, it's defined by whatever planet you are on. Following this, we can demonstrate that mass is NOT the same thing as weight if we take two objects of the same mass and put them on different planets.

Let E refer to Earth and F refer to Mars

g_E = 9.81 m/s^2\\g_F = 3.711 m/s^2

Following this, we can see clearly that weight is not the same as mass:

m*9.81 : m*3.711 \\\int\limits^a_b {x} \, dx 9.81 \neq 3.711\\f_g E \neq f_g F\\

If weight was the same thing as mass, the two values would be the same, as the mass of the two objects is the same. But since weight is defined in the context of gravity, they are not.

A colligative property of a solution is one that depends 1. on the identity of the solute and the concentration of the solution.
Tanzania [10]

Answer:

The correct answer is option 2.

Explanation:

Colligative property is defined as property which depends upon only on the numbers of particles of solute dissolved in definite amount of  solvent, It do not depend on the nature of the solute.

For example : NaCl solution with 0.4 molal will show same colligative properties as a that of the glucose solution with 0.04 molal concentration.

The following are the examples of colligative property:

1. Relative lowering of vapor pressure.

2. Osmotic pressure

3. Elevation in boiling points

4. Depression in freezing point

Why copper should not be disposed of in landfill sites?
Dafna1 [17]
Copper is a heavy metal that can harm many people. This process of heavy metals building in your body is called bioaccumulation and the process of this building in the food chain is called biomagnification. Its hard to rid of this heavy metal because it is very dense, therefore, cannot breakdown in our bodies. Heavy metals get consumed by producers and then reach to the top of the pyramid (us) so we have the highest risk of getting diseases and so on. Make sure you explain that heavy metals get passed from industrial purposes where companies do not dispose of waste properly.
