At the county fair, Carrie and Sam climbed up on the carousel horses. Around and around they went; the horses also bobbed up and

down. When they got off of the carousel, Carrie told Sam they had been accelerating during their ride. Sam disagreed; they had been moving at a constant speed. Whose response is fully correct, and why?

I believe sam's response is correct.
When human is riding a moving target with constant speed over a period of time, we tend to have  a visual acceleration perception due to our optical movement.
This make people such as Carrie believes that the carousel horses are accelerating while it actually stayed at constant pace.

For elements in the third row of the periodic table and beyond, the octet rule is often not obeyed. a friend of yours says this
Rom4ik [11]

The reason that some of the elements of period three and beyond are steady in spite of not sticking to the octet rule is due to the fact of possessing the tendency of forming large size, and a tendency of making more than four bonds. For example, sulfur, it belongs to period 3 and is big enough to hold six fluorine atoms as can be seen in the molecule SF₆, while the second period of an element like nitrogen may not be big to comprise 6 fluorine atoms.  

The existence of unoccupied d orbitals are accessible for bonding for period 3 elements and beyond, the size plays a prime function than the tendency to produce more bonds. Hence, the suggestion of the second friend is correct.

How many moles are in 17.50g of SO2
monitta
The formula for mole is
n= Mass/Mol mass
Mol Mass: S=32
O2= 16(2)
—————
64 g/mol
N= 17.50 g
————— (cancel both g)
64 g/mol
= 0.27 mol is the answer

N2 reacts with hydrogen gas according to the following equation:
slega [8]

Answer:

Mass = 51 g

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of nitrogen = 41.93 g

Mass of ammonia formed = ?

Solution:

Chemical equation:

N₂ + 3H₂      →       2NH₃

Number of moles of nitrogen:

Number of moles = mass/molar mass

Number of moles = 41.93 g/ 28 g/mol

Number of moles = 1.5 mol

now we will compare the moles of nitrogen and ammonia.

                N₂          :           NH₃

                  1          :           2

                1.5         :         2/1×1.5 = 3 mol

Mass of ammonia formed:

Mass = number of moles × molar mass

Mass = 3 mol × 17 g/mol

Mass = 51 g

Draw one line connecting each factor that increases the rate of a
VLD [36.1K]

Answer:

Adding a catalyst - More collisions every second and more collisions with enough energy to break bonds.

Increase in pressure - more collisions every second

Increase in temperature - more collisions every second with enough energy to break bonds

Explanation:

According to the collision theory, chemical reaction occurs as a result of collision between reacting particles. Only particles that possess energy above the activation energy of the reaction can collide and result in product formation. Collision of particles having energy less than the activation energy merely result in elastic collisions.

Adding a catalyst lowers the activation energy of the reaction. If the activation energy is lowered, more reactants collide and more of those collisions now have enough energy to break bonds.

When the temperature is increased, the particles become more energetic hence more collisions with energy to break bonds occur.

Increase in pressure brings the reactant particles into close proximity hence more collisions occur.
