Answer:

1. SI units are easy to remember

2. English system needs lots of calculation while converting it from one unit to other

3. SI unit is universally accepted.

Explanation:

1. SI units are easy to remember

2. English system needs lots of calculation while converting it from one unit to other.

in SI unit base 10 is used to convert from one unit to other,I is similar to number system, therefore it is very easy to remember and convert between units.

In  English system it is very difficult to memorize when we have to convert bigger unit to smaller unit by several orders of magnitude and it needs lots of calculation.

Example:

Suppose we have to determine how many millimeters are there in a meter? then we can easily determine

we can easily remember it as milimeter means 10^3meter

on the other hand if we have convert microns into a mile than it needs lots of calculation.

3. SI unit is universally accepted.

Butane, C4H10, is a component of natural gas that is used as fuel for cigarette lighters. The balanced equation of the complete
zavuch27 [327]

Answer:

So the volume will be 2.33 L

Explanation:

The reaction for the combustion is:

2 C₄H₁₀ (g) + 13 O₂ (g) → 8 CO₂ (g) + 10 H₂O (l)

mass of butane to moles (mass / molar mass)

1.4 g / 58 g/mol

= 0.024 moles

2 moles of butane can produce 8 moles of carbon dioxide

0.024 moles of butane must produce (0.024 × 8) /2

= 0.096 moles of CO₂

Now we apply the Ideal Gases Law to find out the volume formed.

P . V = n . R . T

p = 1atm

n = 0.096 mol

R = 0.082 L.atm/mol.K

T = 273 + 23 = 296K

V = ?

1atm × V = 0.096 mol × 0.082 L.atm/mol.K × 296K

V = 0.096 mol × 0.082 L.atm/mol.K × 296K / 1atm

= 2.33 L

So the volume will be 2.33 L

Imagine you are an astronaut and you travel to a planet with a much larger mass than Earth. How would this affect your weight? E
Svetllana [295]

Answer:

Explanation:

It may not make any difference. The information missing is the radius of the planet.

However for the purposes of the question, let us assume that it is roughly the same diameter of the earth. Then the weight of anyone would increase if the mass is all that changes..

The formula governing your weight is F = G * m1 *m2 / r^2. If m1 is the mass of the planet and it increases a lot then m2 (you) should increase.  The question is done by a proportion.
