How does the law of conservation of mass apply to this reaction: C2H4 + O2 → H2O + CO2?

2 answers:

7 0

The correct answer is D. The law of conservation of mass states that in a system matter can neither be created or destroyed, hence atoms of each element on reactant side should equal atoms of each element on product side. In the unbalanced equation:

$C_2H_4 + O_2 ==> H_2O + CO_2$ , the are 2 carbon atoms on reactant side as opposed to 1 carbon atom on product side, there are 4 hydrogen atoms on reactant side as opposed to 2 hydrogen atoms on product side, and there are 2 oxygen atoms on reactant side as opposed to 3 atoms of oxygen on product side. To balance the equation we add a coefficient of 3 on O_2 and on the product side we put a coefficient of 2 on both water $H_2O$ and carbon dioxide $CO_2$ .

$C_2H_4 + 3O_2 ==> 2H_2O + 2CO_2$ .

A gymnast falls from a height onto a trampoline. For a moment, both the gymnast’s kinetic energy and gravitational potential ene

Tamiku [17]

Answer:

elastic energy

Explanation:

When a gymnast falls on a trampoline from a height, after coming in contact with the trampoline, both the gymnast and the trampoline start to move down due to the elastic property of the trampoline.

During this stretching of the trampoline there comes a maximum point up to which the trampoline is stretched. At this point, both the kinetic energy and the gravitational potential energy of the gymnast are zero due to zero speed and zero height, respectively.

The only energy stored in the gymnast's body at this point is the elastic potential energy due to stretching of the trampoline. Hence,the correct option is:

elastic energy

Katen [24]

Answer:

B. carry a single circuit and are placed in individual cases.

Explanation:

An electric circuit can be defined as an interconnection of electrical components which creates a path for the flow of electric charge (electrons) due to a driving voltage.

Generally, an electric circuit consists of electrical components such as resistors, capacitors, battery, transistors, switches, inductors, etc.

Similarly, an integrated circuit (IC) also referred to as microchip can be defined as a semiconductor-based electronic component that comprises of many other tiny electronic components such as capacitors, resistors, transistors, and inductors.

Integrated circuits (ICs) are often used in virtually all modern electronic devices to carry out specific tasks or functions such as amplification, timer, oscillation, computer memory, microprocessor, etc.

A wafer can be defined as a thin slice of crystalline semiconductor such as silicon and germanium used typically for the construction of an integrated circuit.

In an integrated circuit, each wafer is cut into sections, which generally comprises of a single circuit that are placed in individual cases.

Additionally, a semiconductor can be defined as a crystalline solid substance that has its conductivity lying between that of a metal and an insulator, due to the effects of temperature or an addition of an impurity.

Can someone please answer how to convert mass into weight?

Rasek [7]

Answer:

To find the weight of something, simply multiply its mass by the value of the local gravitational field, and you get a result in newtons (N). For example, if your mass is 50 kg (about 110 pounds), then your weight is (50) (9.8). The point that must be overwhelmingly emphasized is that weight is a force.

A force F acts in the forward direction on a cart of mass m. A friction force ff opposes this motion. Part A Use Newton's second

stellarik [79]

Answer:

a = F-ff/m

Explanation:

According to Newton's second law of motion which states that "the rate of change in momentum of a body is directly proportional to the applied force F and acts in the direction of the force.

Mathematically;

F = ma

Since two forces acts on the cart i.e the moving force F and the frictional force Ff , we will take the sum of the forces.

∑F = ma where

m is the mass of the cart

a is its acceleration

∑F = F+(-ff )(since frictional force is an opposing force)

F - ff = ma

Dividing both sides by mass m

a = F-ff/m

Can someone please help me out with this quiz will give brainiest and thanks to people

Virty [35]

Answer:

Energy transferred = 28.8 Joules.

1. Energy transferred = 144 Joules.

2. The unit of potential difference, volts can also be described as Joules per Coulombs.

3. Current, I = 6.945 Amperes.

Explanation:

Part A.

Given the following data;

Current, I = 1.2A

Time, t = 2 minutes

Potential difference, V = 12 volts.

To find the energy transfered;

Energy transferred = charge moved * potential difference

E = Q * V

Substituting into the equation, we have;

Energy transferred = (1.2 * 2) * 12

Energy transferred = 2.4 * 12

Energy transferred = 28.8 Joules.

Part B.

1. Given the following data;

Charge, Q = 24C

Potential difference = 6V

To find the energy transferred;

E = Q * V

Substituting into the equation, we have;

E = 24 * 6

E = 144 Joules.

2. Since we know that, Energy transferred = charge moved * potential difference

$Potential \; difference = \frac {Energy \; transferred}{Charged \; moved}$

The units of energy is Joules while the unit of the quantity of charge moved is Coulomb.

Therefore, the unit of potential difference becomes Joules per Coulomb.

3. Given the following data;

Potential difference = 18V

Energy transferred = 500J

Time, t = 4 minutes.

To find the current;

E = Q * V

Substituting into the equation, we have;

500 = Q*18

Q = 500/18

Q = 27.78C

But, Charge moved (Q) = current (I) * time (t)

Current, I = Q/t

Substituting into the equation, we have;

Current, I = 27.78/4

Current, I = 6.945 Amperes..
