Answer:

The correct answer is gravity,

Explanation:

Once the object leaves the atmosphere, it is placed in a certain position and begins to orbit the earth. At this point, the possibility of the object remaining in orbit due to gravity will be determined.

Gravity is the force of attraction that exerts all mass on another, and the more mass it has, the greater it will be.

That is why satellites are continuously attracted to the earth.

Have a nice day!

Answer and Explanation:

$Greetings!$

$Let's~answer~your~question!$

$Partial ~pressure ~of ~gas ~can ~be ~directly~ calculated ~by ~multiplying ~the~ percentage\\ of~ pressure~ of~ gases~ to ~the ~total ~pressure.$

$\boxed{Pgas~ = ~P~total~ * \% ~P ~of ~gas}$

For % of N2 gas: 

 $100\% - (5\% + 12\%) = 83\% ~N2$ 

 $PN_2 ~= ~146~ atm~ *~ 0.83 ~ = 121.18 ~atm$ 

 $PO_2 ~= ~146~ atm~ *~ 0.12~ = 17.52 ~atm$ 

 $~PCO_2~ = ~146~ atm ~* 0.05 = 7.3 ~atm$

How many moles of CO2 must dissolve in excess water to produce 12 moles of H2CO3?

vodka [1.7K]

Answer:

12 moles of CO₂.

Explanation:

We'll begin by writing the balanced equation for the reaction. This is illustrated below:

CO₂ + H₂O —> H₂CO₃

From the balanced equation above,

1 mole of CO₂ dissolves in water to produce 1 mole of H₂CO₃.

Finally, we shall determine the number of moles of CO₂ that will dissolve in water to produce 12 moles of H₂CO₃. This can be obtained as follow:

From the balanced equation above,

1 mole of CO₂ dissolves in water to produce 1 mole of H₂CO₃.

Therefore, 12 moles of CO₂ will also dissolve in water to produce 12 moles of H₂CO₃.

Thus, 12 moles of CO₂ is required.
