What is the mole ratio needed to determine the mass of phosphorus trifluoride produced from the reaction of 120 g of phosphorus
Vitek1552 [10]

Answer:

\frac{4molPF_3}{1molP_4}

Explanation:

Hello

In this case, given the reaction:

P_4(s)+6F_2(g)\rightarrow 4PF_3(g)

It means that since the coefficients preceding phosphorous and phosphorous trifluoride are 1 and 4, the correct mole ratio should be:

\frac{4molPF_3}{1molP_4}

Because given the mass of phosphorous it is convenient to convert it to moles and then cancel it out with the moles on bottom of the mole ratio.

Bes regards!

can a light object that was hit with a small force accelerate as rapidly as a heavier object hit with a big force? why or why no
Tcecarenko [31]

The acceleration is defined by force divided by the mass of the object. So, When the smaller object is hit by a small force, it can produce equal acceleration which is same as that of the bigger body hit with large force.

<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>

Force is defined as the product of the mass of the body its applied to and the acceleration of the body in the direction of the force. So acceleration is force divided by the mass of the body.

Let the mass of the smaller body be m and that of the larger body be M.

The smaller force applied on the smaller body be f and the larger force applied on the larger body be F.

So acceleration of the larger body = F/M.

Acceleration of the smaller body = f/m.

For the accelerations to be same,

F/M = f/m.

Or F/f = M/m.

So when the ratio of the force applied on two bodies is in ratio of their masses, the acceleration becomes equal.

The lecturer compared the humans eye to a camera lens
Ilya [14]
An analogy is the closest way to compare something to another that may not be related so that would be my pick. If that’s not it I guess he could maybe be making an observational opinion about it? Good luck hope this helped. Analogy

How many atoms are in 3.2 pg of Ca? The molar mass of Ca is 40.08<br> g/mol.
anyanavicka [17]

Answer:

4.81×10¹⁰ atoms.

Explanation:

We'll begin by converting 3.2 pg to Ca to grams (g). This can be obtained as follow:

1 pg = 1×10¯¹² g

Therefore,

3.2 pg = 3.2 pg × 1×10¯¹² g / 1 pg

3.2 pg = 3.2×10¯¹² g

Therefore, 3.2 pg is equivalent to 3.2×10¯¹² g

Next, we shall determine the number of mole in 3.2×10¯¹² g of Ca. This can be obtained as follow:

Mass of Ca = 3.2×10¯¹² g

Molar mass of Ca = 40.08 g/mol

Mole of ca=.?

Mole = mass /molar mass

Mole of Ca = 3.2×10¯¹² / 40.08

Mole of Ca = 7.98×10¯¹⁴ mole.

Finally, we shall determine the number of atoms present in 7.98×10¯¹⁴ mole of Ca. This can be obtained as illustrated below:

From Avogadro's hypothesis,

1 mole of Ca contains 6.02×10²³ atoms.

Therefore, 7.98×10¯¹⁴ mole of Ca will contain = 7.98×10¯¹⁴ × 6.02×10²³ = 4.81×10¹⁰ atoms.

Therefore, 3.2 pg of Ca contains 4.81×10¹⁰ atoms.

Rank the states of matter from the LEAST amount of energy to MOST
nataly862011 [7]

Answer:

The ranking of matter from the LEAST amount of energy to MOST amount of energy is;

B. Solid, Liquid, Gas

Explanation:

The kinetic energy of the particles that make of matter depends on the temperature of the particles and the particles are constantly vibrating

Solid state (Least amount of energy)

In the solid state, the matter is held in solid (rigid) crystal lattice and the particles are rigidly located next to other adjacent particles and stacked up layer by layer

Liquid state (Intermediate amount of energy)

As the temperature of the particles are increased by heating, the particles (atoms and molecules) gain more kinetic energy and their vibration is increased which on further heating, leads to the breaking of the lattice bond of the solid state and the particles are then readjusted to exist side by side rather than being stacked on one another and the assume the liquid state

Upon further heating the particles in the liquid acquire more energy and are  and rather than exist side-by-side, they are able to exist as individual particles in the gaseous form

Gaseous state (Most amount of energy)

From the kinetic theory of matter, the molecules of matter in the gaseous state contains enough energy which is more than the intermolecular forces of attraction such that the particles are able to move and occupy the entire volume of the container in which it is placed

Therefore, the correct option is Solid, Liquid, Gas.
