This is because of Gravity. Your muscles or your entire body is at ease or whatever because the moon has more mass than earth.

The Moon has less mass than the Earth, which means it has less gravity than the Earth as well. (Also, there is WAY less atmosphere—as in, pretty much none—on the Moon than we're used to having press down on us constantly.)

Since the gravity isn't pulling on us as strongly on the moon as it is on Earth, we can jump higher and further with more ease. That's because our muscles (and all other body parts involved, like our bones and joints and heart and lungs) all were developed and conditioned to work in the stronger gravity on Earth's surface.

Calculate the height of a column of liquid benzene (d=0.879g/cm3), in meters, required to exert a pressure of 0.790 atm .

Simora [160]

Here we have to get the height of the column in meter, filled with liquid benzene which exerting pressure of 0.790 atm.

The height of the column will be 0.928 m.

We know the relation between pressure and height of a liquid placed in a column is: pressure (P) = Height (h) × density of the liquid (ρ) × gravitational constant (g).

Here the pressure (P) is 0.790 atm,

or [0.790 × (1.013 × 10⁶)] dyne/cm². [As 1 atm is equivalent to 1.013 × 10⁶ dyne/cm²]

Or, 8.002ₓ10⁵ dyne/cm².

density of benzene is given 0.879 g/cm³.

And gravitational constant (g) is 980 cm/sec².

On plugging the values we get:

8.002×10⁵ = h × 0.879 × 980

Or, h = 928.931 cm

Or, h = 9.28 m (As 1 m = 100 cm)

Thus the height will be 9.28 m.

Calculate the number of oxygen atoms and its mass in 50g of CaCo3<br>

xz_007 [3.2K]

The number of oxygen atoms = 3

Mass = 24 g

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

The formula of a compound shows the composition of the constituent elements

CaCO₃ is composed of 3 types of elements, namely Ca, C and O

The amounts of each of these elements in the compound CaCO₃:

Ca = 1
C = 1
O = 3

So the number of oxygen atoms = 3

mass of Oxygen :

$\tt mass~O=\dfrac{3\times Ar~O}{MW~CaCO_3}\times mass~CaCO_3\\\\mass~O=\dfrac{3\times 16}{100}\times 50=24~g$

What would be the composition and ph of an ideal buffer prepared from lactic acid (ch3chohco2h), where the hydrogen atom highlig

Mashutka [201]

Answer:

$P_H =2.86$

$c=1.4\times 10^{-4}$

Explanation:

first write the equilibrium equaion ,

$C_3H_6O_3$ ⇄ $C_3H_5O_3^{-} +H^{+}$

assuming degree of dissociation $\alpha$ =1/10;

and initial concentraion of $C_3H_6O_3$ =c;

At equlibrium ;

concentration of $C_3H_6O_3 = c-c\alpha$

$[C_3H_5O_3^{-} ]= c\alpha$

$[H^{+}] = c\alpha$

$K_a = \frac{c\alpha \times c\alpha}{c-c\alpha}$

$\alpha$ is very small so $1-\alpha$ can be neglected

and equation is;

$K_a = {c\alpha \times \alpha}$

$[H^{+}] = c\alpha$ = $\frac{K_a}{\alpha}$

$P_H =- log[H^{+} ]$

$P_H =-logK_a + log\alpha$

$K_a =1.38\times10^{-4}$

$\alpha = \frac{1}{10}$

$P_H= 3.86-1$

$P_H =2.86$

composiion ;

$c=\frac{1}{\alpha} \times [H^{+}]$

$[H^{+}] =antilog(-P_H)$

$[H^{+} ] =0.0014$

$c=0.0014\times \frac{1}{10}$

$c=1.4\times 10^{-4}$

Ca+HCI—>CaCI2+H2, what is the reaction?

arsen [322]

Answer:

single replacement reaction

Explanation:

This is a kind of single replacement reaction where you switch either cations or anions. Here you switched Ca for H and produced Cacl2 and H2 gas by itself.
