<span>ideal gas law: PV = nRT so .....</span><span> V = PV/(RT) </span>
<span>
Initial number of moles of Cl, n = 0.943*5.11/(0.08206 × 286) mol = 0.2053 moles.
</span><span>
We know the molar mass of K (potassium) = 39.0 g/mol </span>
<span>sooo....
The Initial number of moles of K = 29.0 g/(39.0 g/mol) = 0.7436 moles</span>

<span>Find the balanced equation for the reaction : </span><span>2K + Cl2 → 2KCl </span>
<span>Mole ratio of K:Cl = 2:1 </span>

<span>So after the reaction, the amount of K needed = (0.2053 mol) × 2 = 0.4106 mol which is less than 0.7436 mol </span>
<span>
This means that K is in excess but Cl completely reacts. </span>

<span> So we know the mole ratio is  Cl:KCl = 1 : 2 
</span>
<span>Number of moles of Cl (completely) reacted = 0.2053 mol which means the n</span><span>umber of moles of KCl formed = (0.2053 mol) × 2 = 0.4106 mol </span>

<span>Molar mass of KCl = (39.0 + 35.5) g/mol = 74.5 g/mol </span>
<span>Mass of KCl formed = 0.4106 mol * 74.5 g/mol = 30.6 g</span>

An 8 N force is applied to a 2 kg object. What is the magnitude of the object's acceleration? A. 0.25 m/s² B. 4 m/s² C. 6 m/s² D
mel-nik [20]

Answer: 4m/s2 (B)

Explanation:

Force = mass × acceleration

Force given is 8N

Mass=2kg

Acceleration =?

Substitute into the formula

F=ma

8=2a

A=8/2

A=4m/s2

Acceleration used is 4m/s2 (B)
