Why do scientists measure and record mass instead of weight

Chemistry

Natalija [7]3 years ago

The mass of our body remains constant everywhere...let it be on moon, sun or jupiter whereas weight changes everytime the gravitational force of a place changes. For example: if we are on moon, our mass is the same as in earth but our weight is 1/6 of the one on earth. To find our weight, knowing our mass is essential. So, mass is easier to find than weight. We must know that mass and weight are complete different things.

Mass is easier to get than the weight. weight is something that can change on the spot.<span />

How many liters of space will 7.80 moles of methane gas (CH4) occupy at STP
Alchen [17]

Answer:

V CH4(g) = 190.6 L

Explanation:

assuming ideal gas:

  • PV = RTn

∴ STP: T =298 K and P = 1 atm

∴ R = 0.082 atm.L/K.mol

∴ moles (n) = 7.80 mol CH4(g)

∴ Volume CH4(g) = ?

⇒ V = RTn/P

⇒ V CH4(g) = ((0.082 atm.L/K.mol)×(298 K)×(7.80 mol)) / (1 atm)

⇒ V CH4(g) = 190.6 L

How many protons and electrons are present in Au+?
balandron [24]

Answer:

Protons: 79

Electrons: 78

Explanation:

1. The number of protons is the atomic number (The atomic number for Au on the periodic table is 79)

2. Since the charge is +1 (positive) it means that there's one more proton than electrons. So, 79-1 = 78 electrons

If 97.7 ml of silver nitrate solution reacts with excess potassium chloride solution to yield 0.326 g of precipitate, what is th
BlackZzzverrR [31]

The complete balanced chemical reaction is written as:

AgNO3 + KCl ---> AgCl + KNO3 

where AgCl is our precipitate

 

So calculating for moles of AgCl produced: MM AgCl = 143.5 g/mol

moles AgCl = 0.326 g / (143.5 g/mol) = 2.27 x 10^-3 mol

we see that there is 1 mole of Ag per 1 mole of AgCl so:

moles Ag = 2.27 x 10^-3 mol

 

The molarity is simply the ratio of number of moles over volume in Liters, therefore:

Molarity = 2.27 x 10^-3 mol / 0.0977 L

<span>Molarity = 0.0233 M</span>
