<span>Near Earth's surface, the distance between the object that is falling and the center of Earth does not change very much. Thus, the force given by the law of universal gravitation depends only on the mass of the object that is falling.</span>

Each incomplete reaction is a neutralization reaction. Match each equation with the salt formed.

ddd [48]

Based on the incomplete neutralization reaction above, the corresponding salts that each reaction would form are as follows:
1. H2SO4 + 2NH4OH----(NH4)2SO4 with water as a byproduct
2. 2NaOH + H2CO3 ----Na2CO3 with water as a byproduct
3. HNO3 + KOH ----KNO3 with water as a byproduct

To convert measurements in the metric system you can move the decimal point left or right why does this work?

Serhud [2]

Explanation:

Because when you move the decimal point once, it it equal to 10 and to convert in the metric system, you must multiply or divide by 10. For example, when converting 4 centimeters to millimeters, you can multiply by 10 to get 40 millimeters or you can move the decimal point to the right and add another 0 to get 40.

"A crosslinked copolymer consists of 57 wt% ethylene (C2H4) repeat units and 43 wt% propylene (C3H6) repeat units. Determine the

ch4aika [34]

Explanation:

Percentage ethylene by weight = 57%

Percentage propylene by weight = 43%

Suppose in 100 grams of polymer:

Mass of ethylene = 57 g

Mass of propylene = 43 g

Moles of ethylene = $\frac{57 g}{28 g/mol}=2.036 mol$
