How are parentheses used in chemical formulas

Physics
2 answers:
BARSIC [14]3 years ago
8 0
In a chemical compound, parenthesis are used to distinguish the number of polyatomic ions from the number of atoms. Such as in the compound calcium nitrate, it is written as Ca(NO_{3} ) _{2}. This means there are two nitrate ions for every one calcium ion.<span>

If you weigh 690 N on the earth, what would be your weight on the surface of a neutron star that has the same mass as our sun an
lana [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of star M(star) = 1.99×10^30kg

Gravitational constant G

G = 6.67×10^−11 N⋅m²/kg²

Diameter d = 25km

d = 25,000m

R = d/2 = 25,000/2

R = 12,500m

Weight w = 690N

Then, the person mass which is constant can be determined using

W =mg

m = W/g

m = 690/9.81

m = 70.34kg

The acceleration due to gravity on the surface of the neutron star is can be determined using

g(star) = GM(star)/R²

g(star) = 6.67×10^-11 × 1.99×10^30 / 12500²

g (star) = 8.49 × 10¹¹ m/s²

Then, the person weight on neutron star is

W = mg

Mass is constant, m = 70.34kg

W = 70.34 × 8.49 × 10¹¹

W = 5.98 × 10¹³ N

The weight of the person on neutron star is 5.98 × 10¹³ N

What is the new acceleration (in m/s/s)?
Delicious77 [7]

The new acceleration is 108 m/s^2

Explanation:

We can answer this problem by applying Newton's second law, which states that:

F=ma

where

F is the net force on an object

m is the mass of the object

a is its acceleration

The equation can be rewritten as

a=\frac{F}{m}

In this problem, the initial acceleration is

a=18.0 m/s^2

Later:

- The net force is tripled: F'=3F

- The mass is halved: m'=\frac{m}{2}

Therefore, the new acceleration is:

a'=\frac{F'}{m'}=\frac{3F}{m/2}=6\frac{F}{m}=6a

which means that the new acceleration is 6 times the original acceleration, therefore

a'=6(18)=108 m/s^2

Agri-Chem's contract with Enerco specified a maximum of 90,000 cu.ft. X 103 per day for its complexes. However, curtailments are
zvonat [6]

Answer:

Caustic soda would be least affected by a gas curtailment

Explanation:

Let,

X1= ammonia

X2= ammonium phosphate

X3= ammonium nitrate

X4 = Urea

X5= hydro-fluoric acid

X6= Chlorine

X7= Caustic soda

X8= Vinyl chloride monomer.

Agri chem’s current natural gas usage

= (1200 × 8 + 540 × 10 + 490 × 12 + …)                  

= 85,680,000 cu. ft. per day  

When, the curtailment is 20%, availability is

= 0.8 X  85,680

= 68,554,000 cu. ft. per day

Therefore, the gas constant

= 8X1 + 10X2 + 12X3 + 12X4 + 7X5 + 18X6 + 20X7 + 14X8 ≤68,544

When, the curtailment is 40% availability is

= 0.6 X 85,680

= 51,408,000 cu. ft. per day

Constant = 8X1 + 10X2 + 12X3 + 12X4 + 7X5 + 18X6 + 20X7 + 14X8≤ 51,408

Problem A spring was at its resting position where it is attached to a wall at its left side and a block at its right side as sh
puteri [66]

Answer:

F = 19.1 N

Explanation:

To find the force exerted by the string on the block you use the following formula:

F=kx  (1)  

k: spring constant = 95.5 N/m

x: displacement of the block from its equilibrium position = 0.200 m

you replace the values of k and x in the equation (1):

F=(95.5N/m)(0.200m)=19.1N

Hence, the force exterted on the block is 19.1 N
