Answer:

Therefore the loss (transfer) of this potential energy is equal to the increase in kinetic energy

Explanation:

First remember that energy is not destroyed, it only transpires

There are different types of energy, an example of different types of energy is the heat energy (the one that is transferred from an object that is hotter to another, or also by friction), the gravitational potential energy (increases when the height of an object increases with respect to the zero point) another example would be the kinetic energy (increases with increasing the speed of an object)

When object "loses" energy is really transforming into another type of energy

While an object falls and loses its potential energy (it loses height) it increases its speed (it falls faster and faster), as its speed increases the kinetic energy increases

Therefore the loss (transfer) of this potential energy is equal to the increase in kinetic energy

If you needed to make 100 mL of a 0.2 M fruit drink solution from the 1.0 M fruit drink
telo118 [61]

Answer:

We take 20.0 mL of the 1.0 M fruit drink solution and then add 80.0 mL of water to make 100 mL of a 0.2 M fruit drink solution.

Explanation:

Using the rule that: the no. of millimoles of a solution before dilution is equal to the no. of millimoles of the solution after the dilution. (MV) before dilution = (MV) after dilution. M before dilution = 1.0 M, V before dilution = ??? mL. M after dilution = 0.2 M, V after dilution = 100 mL. ∴ V before dilution = (MV) after dilution / M before dilution = (0.2 M)(100 mL) / (1.0 M) = 20.0 mL. So, we take 20.0 mL of the 1.0 M fruit drink solution and then add 80.0 mL of water to  make 100 mL of a 0.2 M fruit drink solution
