Answer: The initial acceleration of the proton = (4.56 × 10^23) m/s2

The initial acceleration of the electron = (8.36 × 10^26) m/s2

Explanation: The force of attraction between the proton and electron can be computed using the statements of Coulomb's law which state that the force of attraction between two charged particles is directly proportional to the product of the two charges and inversely proportional to the square of their distances apart.

F = (Kq1q2)/(r^2) where K = (9 × (10^9) Nm(C^-2))

But q1 is the charge on a proton = (1.6 × (10^-19)) C

q2 is charge on an electron = -(1.6 × (10^-19)) C

r = (5.50 × (10^-10))mm = (5.50 × (10^-13))m

Computing all that, F = 0.0007616529 N = (7.62 × 10^-4) N

But the force of attraction is converted to that required for motion when they're released.

F = ma.

For proton, m = (1.67 × 10^-27) kg

a = F/m = 0.000762/(1.67 × 10^-27) = (4.56 × 10^23) m/s2

For electron, m = (9.11 × 10^-31) kg

a = F/m = 0.000762/(9.11 × 10^-31) = (8.36 × 10^26) m/s2

Answer:

7.5 g of hydrogen gas reacts with 50.0 g oxygen gas to form 57.5 g of water.

Explanation:

Here we have the check if the mass of the reactants is equal to the mass of the products.

Reactants

7.5+50=57.5\ \text{g}

Products

57.5\ \text{g}

The data is consistent with the law of conservation of matter.

Reactants

50+243=293\ \text{g}

Products

206+97=303\ \text{g}

The data is not consistent with the law of conservation of matter.

Reactant

17.7+34.7=52.4\ \text{g}

Products

62.4\ \text{g}

The data is not consistent with the law of conservation of matter.

Only the first data is consistent with the law of conservation of matter.
