Force = mass x acceleration

Unit of force = kg . m/s²

GPE = Force×Height
Unit of GPE = kg.m/s² . m = kg.m²/s² = Joule

If your car gets 30.3 mi/gal, how many gallons of gasoline would you use if you drove 506.3 miles? 1 mile = 5280 ft (exactly) In
Salsk061 [2.6K]

Answer: 16.7 gallon

Explanation:

Given: The car can drive 30.3 miles when 1 gallon of gasoline is used.

Distance covered = 506.3 miles

Thus for 30.3 miles, the amount of gasoline used= 1 gallon

For 506.3 miles, the amount of gasoline used=\frac{1}{30.3}\times 506.3=16.7gallon

Thus the amount of gasoline used is 16.7 gallons.

Consider two acids: CH3CO2H (acetic acid, pKa = 4.8) and C6H5CO2H (benzoic acid, pKa = 4.2). Which acid is the stronger acid? Se
Masja [62]

Answer:

Benzoic acid

Explanation:

The strength of an acid is principally a measure of its dissociative capabilities in aqueous solutions. While strong acids dissociate completely in solution, weak acids dissociates only partially.

The relative strength of an acid can be obtained from its pKa value. The pKa value is the negative logarithm of the concentration of the Ka value.

Stronger acids have a pKa value usually negative. This is a pointer to the fact that the lower the pKa value, the stronger the strength of the acid in question.

Relatively therefore, Benzoic acid is stronger than acetic acid because it has a lesser value for pKa

Acetonitrile (CH3CN) is an important industrial chemical. Among other things, it is used to make plastic moldings, which have mu
serg [7]

Answer:

One carbon atom and the nitrogen atom have nonzero formal charges.

Explanation:

The compound Acetonitrile has sixteen valence electrons as is easily San from its structure. It contains a carbon nitrogen triple bond with a lone pair of electrons on nitrogen. All atoms satisfy the octet rule and there is no hyper valent atom in the molecule.

The formal charge an carbon and nitrogen is calculated as follows;

No. of valence electron on atom - [non bonded electrons + no. of bonds]

Therefore, for carbon and nitrogen, we have;

formal charge on carbon = 4 - (0 + 4) = 0

formal charge on nitrogen = 5 - (2 + 3) = 0

Hence carbon and nitrogen both possess zero formal charges.
