Answer

It is inversely proportional to the square of the distance

Explanation

This is the inverse square law , where in electrostatics, the electric force between two charged objects is inversely connected to the distance of separation between the two objects. This is to mean an increase in separation distance between objects will cause a decrease in the force of attraction between the objects.

Answer:

The correct answer option is 'It is inversely proportional to the square of the distance.'

Explanation:

The electrical force is inversely proportional to the square of the distance.

The relation of the electrical force to the distance between the two charged objects is given by the Coloumb's law which states that:

$ef=k\frac{q_1*q_2}{r^2}$

where $ef$ is the electrical force, $q_1$ and $q_2$ are the two charges which are separated by the distance $r$ .

The equilibrium of 2H 2 O(g) 2H 2 (g) + O 2 (g) at 2,000 K has a Keq value of 5.31 x 10-10. What is the Keq expression for this

maks197457 [2]

Answer is: Keq expression for this system is Keq = [O₂ ] · [H₂]² ÷ [H₂O]².
Chemical reaction: 2H₂O(g) ⇄ O₂(g) + 2H₂(g).
The equilibrium constant (Keq) is a ratio of the concentration of the products (in this reaction oxygen and hydrogen) to the concentration of the reactants (in this reaction water).

What is the change in temperature when 75 grams of water releases -2657 J of energy? The specific heat of water is 4.18 J/g°C

Naily [24]

I think the answer for this is 4702.5 J/g*k Depending on if it is water as a solid liquid or gas. I used water as a liquid when I solved it. J=(75g)(4.18 J/g*k)(15K)

Sulfur and oxygen form both sulfur dioxide and sulfur trioxide. When samples of these were decomposed the sulfur dioxide produce

Zinaida [17]

Answer : The mass of oxygen per gram of sulfur for sulfur dioxide and sulfur trioxide is, 0.997 g and 1.5 g respectively.

Explanation : Given,

Mass of oxygen in sulfur dioxide = 3.49 g

Mass of sulfur in sulfur dioxide = 3.50 g

Mass of oxygen in sulfur trioxide = 9.00 g

Mass of sulfur in sulfur trioxide = 6.00 g

Now we have to calculate the mass of oxygen per gram of sulfur for sulfur dioxide and sulfur trioxide.

Mass of oxygen per gram of sulfur for sulfur dioxide = $\frac{\text{Mass of oxygen}}{\text{Mass of sulfur}}$

Mass of oxygen per gram of sulfur for sulfur dioxide = $\frac{3.49}{3.50}=0.997g$

and,

Mass of oxygen per gram of sulfur for sulfur trioxide = $\frac{\text{Mass of oxygen}}{\text{Mass of sulfur}}$

Mass of oxygen per gram of sulfur for sulfur trioxide = $\frac{9.00}{6.00}=1.5g$

Thus, the mass of oxygen per gram of sulfur for sulfur dioxide and sulfur trioxide is, 0.997 g and 1.5 g respectively.
