Mass and energy are alternate aspects of a single entity called mass-energy. The relationship between these two physical quantit

ies is Einstein's equation, E = mc2, where E is energy, m is mass, and c is the speed of light. In a combustion experiment, it was found that 10.965 g of hydrogen molecules combined with 87.000 g of oxygen molecules to form water and released 1.554 × 103 kJ of heat. Use Einstein's equation to calculate the corresponding mass change in this process.

Answer:

Explanation:

ΔE = Δm × c^2

where,

ΔE = change in energy released with respect to change in mass

= 1.554 × 10^3 kJ

= 1.554 × 10^6 J

Δm = change in mass

c = the speed of light.

= 3 × 10^8 m/s

Equation of the reaction:

2H2 + O2 --> 2H2O

Mass change in this process, Δm = 1.554 × 10^6/(3 × 10^8)^2

= 1.727 × 10^-11 kg

The change in mass calculated from Einstein equation is small that its effect on formation of product will be negligible. Hence, law of conservation of mass holds correct for chemical reactions.

Describe what introspection is.
krek1111 [17]

Answer:

Introspection is a process that involves looking inward to examine one's own thoughts and emotions. ... The experimental use of introspection is similar to what you might do when you analyze your own thoughts and feelings but in a much more structured and rigorous way.

Explanation:

Example of it: The definition of introspection is self-examination, analyzing yourself, looking at your own personality and actions, and considering your own motivations. An example of introspection is when you meditate to try to understand your feelings. noun.

How do you find the net force acting on an object?
yaroslaw [1]
It's D. By "net" they mean the overall force the object experiences, so sum all the force vectors, those in a negative direction (eg friction) should be subtracted.

The concentration of an isotope is 1/500 of its initial value after one day. What is the rate of decay?
mel-nik [20]
The exponential growth/decay formula is given by A = Pe^(rt), where A is the final amount, P is the initial amount, r is the rate of growth/decay and t is time. 

We are given A = (1/500)P and t=1, so substituting:
(1/500)P = Pe^(r*1)
Cancelling out P on both sides:
1/500 = e^r
ln(1/500) = ln(e^r)
r = -6.215

Rate of decay is -6.215 per day.
